    Works fine for me too. I just use it via the browser and added a shortcut to the home screen for quick and easy access.

    The BBC iplayer site works fantastic on the PlayBook, at least for video on demand. I presume it works well in the Passport, but you don't get fullscreen if you connect to an external display.

    If you've updated your Passport to BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.3.1 then Adobe Flash is no longer included so iPlayer won't work in the Browser any more.

    You'd have to try and find the iPlayer Android apps instead (BBC iPlayer and BBC Media Player) and I think they are only in the Google Play store.

    Search these forums for how to install an app called Snap that will let you download apps directly from Google Play.

    Do know what other ramifications there are with the impending loss of Adobe Flash?

    Anything that uses Flash with no alternative option is now unusable in 10.3.1

    BlackBerry wanted to stop paying Adobe licence fees for Flash and Air so removed them both from BlackBerry 10. Unfortunately a lot of websites still use Flash for their content with no alternative.
