Hi Steve

I accessed the ITV Hub and an AD programme last night on my Polaris Mini so
will indeed be taking it with me.  But it isn't going to deter me from
putting pressure on these companies to deliver AD on all platforms.  I can't
do much on my own so anyone who feels particularly frustrated should do
likewise.  But instead of targeting ITV Hub directly, we need to try to
influence bodies to campaign officially.

Kind regards,

Hi Jackie,

Silly question, but why not take your Polaris?  That will let you watch the
ITV hub with audio description.  It's smaller than your laptop, and less for
you to carry about.

All the best

Steve

Hi Yusuf

Yes looks like that's exactly right.  I checked iOS earlier and it is
nowhere to be seen yet either.  It's shameful quite honestly! I've written
to them a few times, along with many others, but clearly ITV doesn't think
it is important enough.  In the grand scheme of things it isn't, but it
would be nicer to follow a programme with AD included.

Kind regards,

Last time I checked Jackie, I couldn't figure out how to do this either and
don't think it is currently possible. It appeared that the only way of
watching catch up TV with audio description from ITV was to use the Android
App.

Has anyone used the ITV Hub on a PC before and, if so, how you find
programmes with Audio Description?  When I go away, I generally take my
Amazon Fire tablet as the ITV Hub definitely carries AD.  But I was thinking
of taking my laptop to cover everything I need instead, but haven't found
anything on the ITV Hub online which points to AD.

Thanks for any pointers.

Kind regards,
