“How to Watch ITVX Internationally Without Losing Your Mind”

So, you’re keen on catching all the exciting action on ITVX, like football, the Love Island antics, or a detective cracking cases over a cuppa? The hitch? It’s only accessible in the UK, mate. But don’t stress, ‘cos GadgetLad’s got your back. You can still enjoy all those shows, even if you’re sipping a pint outside the UK.

Access ITVX from Abroad Using Your Brain and a VPN

If you’re eager to stream ITVX while soaking up the sun in Marbella or freezing your bits in Sweden, you’re gonna need a VPN.

VPN, short for ‘virtual private network’ – yeah, I get it, sounds posh – allows you to surf the internet as if you’re nestled in your favourite pub in Newcastle. So ITVX will believe you’re in the toon even if you’re not.

There are loads of VPNs available, but trust old GadgetLad, I’ve done the legwork trying them out. NordVPN and SurfShark get my seal of approval for speed, dependability, and they’re as straightforward to use as brewing a cup of tea. Have a look at my complete list of the top VPNs for streaming if you’re keen on learning more.

Once you’ve got your VPN set up on any device, here’s how to proceed:

At a glance

• Time to complete: 5 minutes

1.

Locate a Server and Get Started

Open your VPN on your mobile, laptop, or whatever device you have, and select a server that’s located in the UK.

2.

Open ITVX and Give It a Shot

Navigate to the ITVX website or app on the same device. It should recognize that you’re snuggled up in Blighty.

If the website starts acting up and doesn’t function properly, attempt switching UK servers on your VPN. Streaming platforms like ITVX often try to block known VPN IPs, so you might have to tweak a bit.

Additionally, if you’re using an ad blocker, ITVX might throw a tantrum and deny you access. Some VPNs include ad-blocking features, so consider turning that off if you encounter issues.

3.

Log In and Start Watching

If you haven’t done so yet, create an ITVX account to watch. You’ll need to provide an email, date of birth, and a UK postcode. Then you’re all set.
