A one-stop shop for the best of German TV, the MagentaTV app has more than 170 channels, many of which come in high-definition quality for an optimal viewing experience. Its line-up includes ARD, ZDF, ProSieben, Sport1 and the educational N24Doku, as well as lots of international films and series, all available via one app subscription.

What we love: You’re spoilt for streaming choice in the app’s extensive library. There are loads of international titles to choose from, but make time for popular homegrown series as well, including Boom Boom Bruno starring Ben Becker or the star chef Tim Raue’s culinary journeys through Germany.

Don’t miss: Sports fans will find lots to explore here, with live events streaming on ARD, ZDF, RTL and more. There’s also a wide range of sports documentaries to explore, including an insight into the life of Toni Kroos and a behind-the-scenes look at the Cologne Sharks.

Quick tip: If you can’t watch something live, you can record up to 50 hours of films, shows and events to stream later, so start building your personal media library now.
