NOW TV Smart Box: Freeview and TV Passes

If you use NOW TV’s top-tier set-top box, the NOW TV Smart Box, you’ll be able to combine your TV pass or passes with Freeview TV.

Freeview TV has over 70 channels, plus an additional 12 HD channels. You can find the full channel listing on our guide to Freeview TV.

With the NOW TV Smart Box, you can watch, pause and rewind these channels live; however, you can’t record live TV.

The set-top box does come with catch-up apps like BBC iPlayer, All 4 and ITV Hub preinstalled on it, though, so you can stream these programmes on-demand instead of recording them. You won’t be able to store them for later, however.
