Filipino TV online: how it works
Kapuso Stream is GMA's daily live stream of selected GMA shows on GMA Network's official YouTube channel. GMA Play, GMA's official streaming app (renamed from the GMA Network app in February 2026), has GMA shows on demand and Kapuso Stream live, with a free Kapuso account, on phones, the web and Android TVs.
ABS-CBN, whose TV channel is Kapamilya Channel, streams selected shows live for free on Kapamilya Online Live, on its ABS-CBN Entertainment YouTube channel, and has paid plans with live channels on iWant. ANC, ABS-CBN's news channel, streams live on iWant since 27 August 2025, also outside the Philippines.
TV5, the Kapatid network, streams its broadcast live as the Kapatid Livestream on its official YouTube channel; OneNews, TV5's sister news site, says it simulcasts the broadcast in real time. GTV, GMA's second free-to-air channel, replaced GMA News TV in February 2021. We found no official live stream of GTV online, but GMA's GMA Now receiver, Php599, shows GMA, GTV and the other free-to-air digital channels on a phone in selected areas.
PTV, the People's Television Network, is the government's TV network. It streams live on its official YouTube channel, and on digital TV it is channel 14 in Metro Manila.
How to watch Filipino TV abroad
GMA runs international channels for Filipinos abroad: GMA Pinoy TV, GMA Life TV and GMA News TV. In the US they are a package on YouTube TV, also sold on its own, without other channels. In many other countries iWant sells them as the GMA Pinoy Bundle (not in the Philippines).
ABS-CBN says Filipinos all over the world can watch its shows through Kapamilya Online Live or iWant. Its global channel TFC comes through IPTV, cable and TV providers.
TV5's international subscription channel, Kapatid TV5, carries highlights from TV5 and One Sports; in Canada, Rogers sells it as an add-on channel. GMA says GTV's programmes air abroad on GMA Pinoy TV, GMA Life TV and GMA News TV International. For PTV, and for TV5's YouTube livestream, we found no official word on whether they play outside the Philippines.
