When Vision TV was launched in 2012, it provided viewers in the UK with access to a package of foreign TV channels. Viewers had to subscribe online in order to watch pay TV channels on the Vision TV Network, which were delivered through data channels (110, 111 and 112) on Freeview HD set-top boxes, and later to
Roku players. As an
IPTV service, the network also allowed two-way interactivity to enable functionality such as voting, commerce and targeted advertising. The service initially broadcast French, Greek, Polish and Turkish channels. In August 2012, Muslim and Arabic-language channels were added. In March 2015, a Portuguese package called 'My Portuguese' was added, which included
Benfica TV. In September 2015 the service became available on the web, as well as
EE TV set-top boxes. In November 2015, iOS and Android apps were launched. The UK pay-TV service closed down on 30 April 2019 and was no longer available on Roku or mobile devices, though a separate package of free channels continued to stream online and via Freeview. ==Visiontv. on Freeview==
