Criterion 24/7
Criterion 24/7 is an independent iPhone and iPad app I built to see what’s playing on the Criterion Channel’s continuous stream.
Open it to see the current film, its details, time remaining, and a history of recent airings. Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets keep the current film in view. Optional notifications let you know when a film changes over; open the app to find out what’s started.
Powered by Zabriskie, which keeps a continuous record of the stream to provide start times, runtimes, and recent airings. Current film information also comes from Criterion’s public What’s On Now page.
The companion app doesn’t need an account. Watching the stream through the Criterion Channel may require a Criterion Channel subscription. Film information and timing depend on the availability of the underlying services, and widget updates are scheduled by iOS.
The first App Store release is being prepared. I’ll add the download link here when it’s available.
