The official app for China Global Television Network
The Chinese TV channel lands on mobile devices around the world to offer us its content and its live news. But what exactly does the download of the APK file offer us and how does this platform work?
International news from a Chinese perspective
CGTN is the official app for the TV channel China Global Television Network. From here, we will be able to watch the channel's live or pre-recorded content, read a range of international news, access exclusive reports, and even watch original programs.
Our mission is to create a better understanding of international events across the world, bridging continents and bringing a more balanced view to global news reporting.
When we open the platform, we will be welcomed by a panda bear. He is the virtual assistant that we can use to search for information and even take photos with him using augmented reality technology.
Meanwhile, one of the most interesting tools featured is an automatic translator for reading the news in a range of languages. All this is topped off with recommended reading, a custom feed, special content, domestic channels, programming, favorites list, and other pretty useful functions. If we are regular viewers of this Chinese channel, this application will come in very handy indeed.
Requirements and additional information:
- Minimum operating system requirements: Android 4.2.
