the Globle TV app is very accessible. there are tabds and one is called freeplay. described video is there, as it's officially known in Canada, and there are so many shows with DV nnow. I have no issues using this app.

Can I use it on my iPad? What do I need to use it?
Thanks

the global TV app is an app for that TV station in Canada. it has lots of shows like Big Brother Canada, and lots of news. it works well and you can subscribe for more shows.

I used to watch BB Canada on Paramount Plus. Suddenly it's gone. I was on Season Seven. Does anyone know what network this has moved to? Now if the Global app works in the US, maybe I've just answered my own question.

to get Big Brother Canada in the US, if the global TV app doesn't work, I'm thinking VoiceOver will say, this app is not available in your country and region, use a VPN. they're subscription based, but they're free options as well. myself, I am subscribed to a deals list, and scored a lifetime special deal on one. If I can figure out the subscribe address, I will comment with that link. good luck!

I figured out how to get the subscription address. it is:
shop@email.stackcommerce.com
they have frequent deals on VPNs. the one I have, FastestVPN, works well with VoiceOver on maccOS, I will get it working on iOS, and report back.

FastestVPN on iOS works well. Screen recognition is required for country and/or region selection(depending on the content you want at any given time) after that, you can connect in settings in iOS.

I found the last time I tried to sign in with my cable provider, I had a lot of trouble, specifically being able to locate my cable provider so I can log in. Has that been addressed?

I'm sorry but I have to disagree with the person above who said it's accessible. To be able to sign in with a provider requires you to switch voiceover to screen recognition.
Secondly after you managed to locate and log in with your cable provider, navigating the tv guide is nearly impossible, as the channels names are not being read by voiceover. The only thing being read is the current and up coming shows which is useless if you don't know what channel it's for.

I never signin as I have no cable. I just use the free content, thus, never experienced that part of the app.
