Watch it on your TV, not your phone

  1. Smart TV: open your TV's app store, install the app and sign in.
  2. No app on your TV? A Fire TV Stick or an Android TV box adds the same apps to any TV with HDMI.
  3. On a phone or laptop: cast it to the TV with Chromecast or AirPlay.

Quick answers

Questions people ask

What's the easiest way to watch Pakistani TV in the UK?

One all-in-one subscription with Pakistani channels live, such as our advertiser VOLTIX: 157 Pakistani channels, plus your UK channels and 80+ countries, on any device. The official options are a few channels on Sky, and dramas and news in each channel's own free app or on its YouTube page.

Can I watch ARY Digital in the UK?

Yes. ARY Digital is on Sky, channel 748. QTV is on Sky channel 761. ARY's dramas also stream in its free app, ARY Plus.

Can I watch Pakistani dramas for free in the UK?

Yes, many of them. ARY Digital's dramas stream free in the ARY Plus app (since 17 September 2026 they are no longer on YouTube), Geo's in the free Harpal Geo app, and many HUM TV episodes are on HUM TV's official YouTube channel, free with ads. Not every drama or episode is there, and some are added later.

What is ARY Plus?

ARY's own streaming app, once called ARY ZAP. It is free on the UK App Store, and since 17 September 2026 ARY Digital's dramas stream there instead of on YouTube.

Is PTV on UK TV?

Not any more. PTV Global was taken off Sky in July 2023 and off the Astra satellite in September 2024.

Is there one app with all the Pakistani channels?

Not from the channels: ARY, HUM and Geo each run their own. All-in-one services such as our advertiser VOLTIX bundle live TV from many countries in one subscription.

Can I watch Pakistani news live in the UK?

Yes. Geo's free Geo News app streams Geo News live 24/7. For many Pakistani news channels live in one place, all-in-one services such as our advertiser VOLTIX have 23 Pakistani news channels.

Do I need a satellite dish in the UK?

No. Everything in this guide works over your home internet, apart from Sky's own box. A smart TV, a Fire TV Stick or Android TV box, a phone or a laptop is enough.

Can I watch on my TV?

Yes: use your smart TV's app, add a Fire TV Stick or Android TV box, or cast from your phone or laptop.
