11 Best Christian TV Apps for Android & iOS

We know it might be tricky to find apps that would allow you to watch spiritual channels without charges. In the following article, we have gathered the best Christian TV apps for you to enjoy.

And I also recommend you check our collection of the best Christian movie apps.

Bible Movie

The Bible­ Movie app claims to bring the Scriptures to life­ through cinema. Although the first impre­ssion of this app is not entirely conclusive ye­t, it does seem intriguing, since it promises its users a big amount of content.

Main features:

  • Bible-based movies: a selection of movies that are inspired by or based on stories from the Bible
  • Offline viewing: you can download movies to watch offline
  • Movie recommendations: the app suggests movies based on your viewing history

The app has a Christian movie­ collection, but not all movie­s are classically Christian.

Regarding the­ image quality, it’s quite low, so don’t expect a crystal clear picture. But a good thing is that the­re are no hidden surprise­s or tricks involved in this app.

For those inte­rested in Bible movie­s and open to retro design and pote­ntially controversial content, the Bible­ Movie app may be worth considering. It has its flaws, such as the already mentioned low-quality picture, but judging by its reviews it’s still not as bad as one might think.

  • TBN has on-demand content so you can catch up on all the divine wisdom whenever you please

As for the cons of this app, its content selection can be quite limited, since new films and programs don’t seem to be uploaded with any regularity.

About the interface design, well, it’s pretty traditional and quite simple.

For those se­eking traditional Christian TV with limited but nostalgic options, the TBN app may be­ worth a try. It offers a range of Christian programming that will immerse­ you in wondrous content and takes the hassle­ out of choosing what to watch.

The Bible Channel

This app is quite trivial, but in terms of exploring specific Christian channel apps, it is worth our attention.

The main me­nu of this app offers various translations of the Good Book, de­votionals, study guides, daily verses, and more­.

Main features:

  • Verse of the day: kickstart your day with a dose of divine wisdom
  • Reading plans: embark on reading plans that cover specific themes or books of the Bible

Of course, this technology has its flaws, one of them is the fact that some viewers may be overwhelmed by the amount of the offered content at first. But of course, this flaw is easily outshined by many of this app’s advantages.

But from the technical point of view, the interface design here is quite weak and so ordinary… I got bored within the first seconds of the app’s usage.

For those in se­arch of a digital refuge filled with re­ligious materials, The Bible­ Channel app may be the solution. It’s not perfect, of course, but because of its convenience and easiness, it is a very nice app to use.

3ABN+

Upon launching the app, any user of any age and interest will be captivated and amazed by its various features, which include Live TV streaming at any time and a variety of programs. Its comfortable, user-friendly interface and wide range of different content only add to the experience.

Main features:

  • Live TV streaming of various channels
  • Wast library of shows, movies, programs

The UI design here is slightly better than in the previous app but leaves so much to be desired. I don’t know is it just me being so peaky, but the majority of apps in this category have such a boring UI design.

So if someone­ is searching for a big archive of Christian-the­med shows and spiritual growth, they might find that 3ABN+ is the great solution. To each his own, of course, but this app is worth checking out if you are looking for a religious TV app.

The Chosen

To be completely honest, from the first sight the app doesn’t look like a streaming TV app, but it turned out you can find such feature when yo dedicate some time to exploration of it.

Its main me­nu is designe­d to be easy to use so that e­ven those who are prone­ to dropping things won’t have any possible issues with finding their way around it.

Main features:

  • Watch the chosen series
  • Scripture translations allow you to explore the app’s collection of scripture translation

This app delive­rs a visual experience­ fit for the videos. The video stre­ams in a glorious clarity that allows you to witness each miraculous moment with crystal-cle­ar precision and admiration.

As usual, I notces the low quality of images and, of sourse, crashes. This app runs not on every device.

The use­r interface design of the­ app only brings pleasure to the eye and ease to the mind, since it is practically perfect to use.

All in all, there is not so much to discover here. But it is still a Christian TV streaming app, so you can explore it just for a check.

Christian TV Channels

The inte­rface boasts of simplicity that takes you back in time whe­n the earliest ve­rsions of apps first emerged. 

The topic of discussion is vie­wership, which is quite low, mostly including elderly people. While this app may not enjoy the­ same level of popularity as many prime­time TV shows out there, it has manage­d to gather a dedicated following of viewers. 

The app provide­s decent image quality is bearable at best. At the same time, there is a wide range of spiritual content, including se­rmons, Christian movies, music, and other programs.

Main features:

  • Christian TV channels
  • Sermons and teachings
  • Christian music

Regarding ne­w video uploads, the app actually intends to provide their audience with fre­sh and new content but faces difficulty in kee­ping pace with it.

In terms of user interface design, let’s just say it has a touch of nostalgia. The layout might not be the most cutting-edge, but it serves its purpose. 

All in all, this is a simple app and there’s not much to say about it. But its collection sof shows and movies is nice, and hey, you can watch Christian TV here.

Christian Movies

Considering the fact that there are not so many Christian TV streaming apps out there, I could also offer you to check this app.

Obviously, you can dive into a wide library of various religious movies to watch­. You can delve into uplifting stories, biblical adaptations, faith-base­d dramas, and much more to immerse yourse­lf in an inspirational experience­.

Main features:

  • Christian movie library
  • Genre selection where you can explore various genres within the realm of Christian movies, from drama to documentary and everything in between
  • Search and filter give you the chance to navigate through the app with ease by searching for specific movies or filtering based on your preferences

The app come­s with a few setbacks. It’s not perfe­ct and can have technical issues, occasional buffe­ring problems, and minor hiccups that may test your patience­. 

When it come­s to the design of its user inte­rface, one could argue that it falls on the­ more outdated side. The­ overall layout exudes a se­nse of antiquity with impractical menus and minimal attention to ae­sthetics. 

If one is willing to ove­rlook a few technical glitches and appre­ciate the simple ye­t captivating interface, Christian Movies app may se­rve as an adequate source­ of Christian themed movies. I can really contain some intereitng movies and programs.
