Freeview Play Accessible TV Guide

The Accessible TV Guide has been designed for viewers with visual impairments, with a high contrast interface, screen magnification, and (on some devices) a text-to-speech function.

Select channel 555 and you will be asked for your preferred accessibility settings from the below options: 

• Use text-to-speech for on screen navigation (if supported on your device)
• Show only programmes with audio description 
• Show only programmes with subtitles 
• Show only programmes with sign language

You can then choose to watch a demo of how the guide works or head straight to the guide. The guide will launch a filtered version of the TV schedule showing the content coming up that fits your own accessibility criteria.

Text-to-speech

Devices supporting the text-to-speech function are listed on the Freeview website.
