Freesat 4K TV Box Query
 

Hi,

My uncles is in his 90's and am thinking of getting the above device
which include the youtube, iplayer apps etc. he currently has a freesat cable installed.

he maybe moving to a small property soon which may not have freesat wiring in. if there is no wiring can we still access the youtube / iplayers apps on the above device? which we intend to buy from argos

i assume its a matter of skipping the tuning for the freesat channels?

please could anyone help with this?

many thanks in advance

I would imagine it depends on the model, but you will of course need internet access.

We have internet access . just need to know if we could still use the apps
on the freesat box should he move property if there is no freesat wire.

If you do not presently own a Freesat box and you are thinking your uncle may move to a house without a satellite dish, then do not buy a Freesat box. If ‘no satellite’ isn’t a problem, but ‘no apps’ is … then buy a streaming player like a Roku or a Google Chromecast or Amazon Firestick instead. They have all the apps, and they all definitely work without needing a broadcast signal of any kind.
