Installing BBC iPlayer

[NTuohy]

Hi All,

I have just purchased a Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 and I am unable to install BBC iPlayer! Every time I try it shows 'Your device is not compatible with this version' on the play store. I have spoken to Samsung and they say its not their problem. Anyone else having problems installing and do you have a work around?

Thanks

Hi Norman,

No this didn't work. It's not a country issue

Thanks

This is probably the x86 support issue again. Many apps use some native code, especially the NEON instruction set and the mobile based OpenGL ES 2.0; while it seems doubtful a video player app from the BBC would be very optimized, I submit this compatibility issue as a possible culprit. Same as why San Andreas does not run on the 10.1, and why some games on the market say TEGRA ONLY or such.
