Launch of the V FAST Channel iOS App

On August 27, 2025, the V FAST Channel will unveil its iOS app, significantly broadening access to its free streaming service. Developed by FAST Corporation, alongside BBM and CCCMK Holdings, this initiative aims to cater to evolving viewing habits, allowing users to enjoy their favorite content across multiple devices.

Expanding Reach and Flexibility

Previously, the V FAST Channel was only accessible on televisions, with an Android service launched in July 2025. The introduction of the iOS app marks a pivotal moment, enabling viewers to enjoy the platform's extensive content lineup on smartphones as well. Users can expect to stream a variety of genres including news, drama, entertainment, cooking, travel, pets, health, lifestyle, and children's programming.

The initiative aligns with the demand for flexible viewing experiences. A recent survey indicated that 88% of respondents preferred multitasking while watching video content, leading to the introduction of the innovative #Yuru-mi viewing concept. This new trend promotes relaxed viewing, where content is enjoyed while engaging in other activities.

Viewing Statistics

Analysis of the V FAST Channel’s current usage patterns reveals that viewers spend an average of 4 hours daily on the platform. Peak viewing times occur in the early evening (5 PM - 7 PM) and late night (11 PM - 1 AM), which is markedly different from the peak periods of traditional subscription streaming services. This data further emphasizes the appeal of #Yuru-mi as it encourages viewers to integrate media consumption into their day-to-day lives.

Exciting Launch Campaigns

To celebrate the launch of the iOS app, the V FAST Channel is introducing two major campaigns running until September 30, 2025. Users who download the app and log in with their V membership number can earn 50 V points for watching over an hour of programming. Additionally, users can collect 10 points for every 5 hours of viewing, with a maximum of 50 points available during the campaign.

These campaigns are designed to enhance engagement and encourage users to explore the diverse content available on the platform.

The Future of V FAST Channel

With a commitment to building on the strong foundation of the FAST platform and tailoring content to fit Japanese viewing habits, FAST Corporation, BBM, and CCCMK Holdings aim to popularize the #Yuru-mi style amongst its 130 million members. The vision is clear: to foster a new way of enjoying video content seamlessly integrated into everyday life.
