MediathekSuche.de Mobile App

This is the MediathekSuche.de mobile app.

(There's a separate app for Smart-TVs running Android TV)

Please note that most content searchable through this app is IP geo-blocked by the originating media center and might not be accessible if you're outside Germany or Europe.

All Media Centers under one roof

This app enables you to search all the larger and in sum nearly all German TV catch-up TV portals / media centers at once - those of public broadcasters and of commercial stations.

Videos on Demand

In most cases, you can start streaming videos right from the app with public broadcasting stations - and for commercial broadcasters through the browser. Depending on TV station and availability, the app will also prompt for the dedicated media center app of a respective providing station. Yes, streaming can be this easy.

Chromecast Support

Our app supports Google Chromecast since version 1.1.7. This allows to play videos locally, or stream videos to available Chromcast devices.

Configurable Player

In case the app's built-in player is not fully working on your device, you can configure a different one from all the players available on your device for playback.

Missed an airing? No problem!
