With the free Android app ARD library one accesses the public service programs through the ARD broadcasting group . The app offers most of the content of the preceding seven days for retrieval . There are also numerous live streams.
7-day look back and recall function
With the ARD library , the user receives access to a 7 -day look back . On the Android phone you look so among other things, the shipments of hr , MDR, Das Erste , WDR, Eins Plus , SWR, Bavarian television and rbb .
The home screen consists of three tabs: Missed the show , live and One Like. Missed sub- mission shows the ARD library all available items of the past seven days . This sorted chronologically or by sending the app name. The rider One Like collects videos of the station Eins Plus and Eins Festival and is aimed primarily at young people. Live Under the user will find an overview of the available live broadcasts .
Below the main menu , the app provides an overview of current videos and clips, and highlights the areas of film , reportage and documentary.
A built-in memory function assigns the user to the beginning of regular program content, as the evening news or the Sunday scene.
income navigation
Some menus and buttons of the ARD library very slow to load and sometimes react very delayed. Particularly disturbing affects on long lists . Leafing through the lists through , one must often start again with your finger.
Very practical , however, is the search function. About this search by topic and user program or via built-in full text search even for actors and people. The search results sorted by relevance or date of the app .
Good video quality
The video quality in the ARD library do I adjust manually. A choice of three criteria : S, M and L. In a slow Internet connection , the app uses the video quality down automatically .
The transmission of video content uses a lot of data. The app should use either the local WLAN or with a data plan therefore .
As a public legal app is available in the library of the German data protection in the foreground . So the app only requires access to the Internet . Private information such as the address or the file system does not need the ARD library.
Conclusion: Excellent app for mobile TV
On the library mobile ARD television viewers had to wait long . But does the app delivers what it promises : the public law of the ARD television station group as an on- demand stream . The video quality is good and with the search function you will find content quickly and conveniently . Only the slightly delayed menu control interferes .
