The Verge is now available on your TV — in 4K for free. You can now watch our product reviews, in-depth tech and science explainers, exclusive documentaries, and much more on your favorite streaming devices: Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, and Apple TV.

The app includes years of Verge videos, many available in 4K for the first time. You can binge your favorite videos from our team of journalists — including Dieter Bohn and Becca Farsace. The app will also be the first to stream our new documentary on the forgotten history of the Treo featuring The Verge’s executive editor, Dieter Bohn. Here’s a teaser: Springboard: the secret history of the first real smartphone.

You can also follow playlists of feature reporting and first looks or dive deep into topics like gaming and materials. And you can even use your TV to listen to your favorite podcast episodes from The Vergecast, Decoder with Nilay Patel, and Why’d You Push That Button? hosted by Ashley Carman.

WHERE TO WATCH

Update January 13th, 5PM ET:

Last year, The Verge launched its very first app and streamed 4K videos on Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, and Apple TV, but as of January 13th, 2023, it will no longer be updated or available for new downloads. 

However, you can still find our best reviews, series, and explainers on all of The Verge’s major social channels, including our most ambitious review to date on the Apple Watch Ultra. Check it out here:

For the rest of 2023, be on the lookout for new series and hosts, especially on our renewed science video channel, Seeker by The Verge. 

Seeker by The Verge takes a deep dive into our science reporting, exploring the fascinating world of materials and their impact on advancing technologies. In one of our recent episodes, Verge science reporter Justine Calma explores the US’s continued reliance on Russian uranium as a source of nuclear power. The team even interacts with a real radioactive chunk of uranium in our studio. Check it out here:
