Official Streaming Platforms for Love Island
Love Island USA streams exclusively on Peacock in the United States, with new episodes available the day after broadcast on both the free ad-supported tier and the premium subscription plan. In the United Kingdom, the original Love Island airs on ITV2 and streams on ITVX, which replaced ITV Hub as the primary hub for ITV content. ITVX offers next-day access to full episodes and catch-up for a limited window, with live TV included for ITVX Premium subscribers. Peacock and ITVX are the two primary official services where viewers can watch Love Island legally and in high definition.
Peacock provides both ad-supported and ad-free plans, with the ad-free tier allowing downloads for offline viewing on mobile devices and smart TVs. ITVX Premium removes most ads and adds access to live ITV channels, enabling viewers to watch Love Island as it airs in the UK. Both platforms require a login and support multiple devices, including Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Chromecast, iOS, and Android. Availability outside the US and UK typically requires a VPN set to a supported region to access the local catalog.
International Broadcast and Streaming Options
Love Island Global Versions
Beyond the US and UK versions, Love Island airs in multiple international markets under local network partners and streaming services. In Australia, Love Island is broadcast on Nine Network and streams on Stan, which holds the exclusive digital rights for the Australian version. In South Africa, the show airs on M-Net's local feed and streams on DStv Now and the Showmax platform. These regional services carry the local adaptation of Love Island, with episodes typically available the same day or next day after the original broadcast.
ITV Studios, the production company behind Love Island, licenses the format to broadcasters worldwide, which determines the exact streaming home for each territory. In Canada, Love Island USA episodes are available on CTV and the CTV app, which mirrors the Peacock content window for North American viewers. In Germany and Austria, the local version streams on RTL+ under the Love Island Deutschland branding. Each territory uses its own combination of free ad-supported and premium subscription models based on the local rights holder.

Peacock is also available on Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and Chromecast, with 1080p streaming on supported devices and 4K available on premium tiers for select content. ITVX supports Chromecast and AirPlay for casting from mobile devices, and the app is pre-installed on newer smart TVs from Samsung and LG. Both services support simultaneous streaming on multiple devices per account, with Peacock allowing up to three streams on the premium plan.
For viewers without a smart TV, Love Island can be watched on laptops and desktops through the Peacock and ITVX web apps, which support Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
