The documentary library in CatchOn TV brings factual films into the living room: nature and wildlife, history, science, travel and current affairs. They suit a quiet evening or a long weekend when you want to learn something.
Browsing by subject
Documentaries are listed by subject, so you can go straight to the wildlife films or the history programmes. Each entry carries a short description and its running time, so you can decide how long to give it.
Watching in parts
Long documentary series are split into parts. The app remembers where you stopped, so a six-part series can be watched over a week without losing your place.
Questions about documentaries
Are the documentaries in English?
Many are in English, and others come with subtitles or dubbing where the broadcaster provides them. The app shows the audio and subtitle options for each title.
Do documentaries play in HD?
Most are in HD, and some nature films are offered in 4K where the catalogue carries that version.
Can I watch them on a phone?
Yes, on any Android phone or tablet running the app, within your plan’s screen limit.
