PTS announced on November 6, 2023 that the app named 公視APP would be removed on November 20. The notice directs users to the PTS website, PTS+ video platform and PTS News. Keep the old name with the date, then choose the publisher destination that matches the programme, report or institutional information you need.
Read the exact product name and date
Keep 公視APP from the original recommendation. An English phrase such as PTS app can refer to several publisher services. The retirement notice uses the local year 112 for 2023. Its November 20 date is a historical milestone for the specifically named app.
An older guide can still identify a documentary even when its app instruction is out of date. Retain the original programme title, year and other work details. Use the later notice to choose where to investigate the work today.
Choose a destination by the work
The notice identifies PTS+ as the video platform and points readers to PTS News and the institutional website. The broadcaster’s current directory also distinguishes those services. Begin with the material you actually want to find.
| Material sought | Publisher destination |
|---|---|
| Programme or video edition | PTS+ and the specific work entry |
| Dated news report | PTS News and its individual report |
| Broadcaster information | Official PTS website |
| Historical app instruction | Exact app name and retirement notice |
Use a worked old-bookmark example
A relative sends a 2022 guide with an app instruction for a documentary. Keep its documentary title and year and search the video destination named by PTS. If the relative instead wants a news interview, take the date and guest to PTS News. Both tasks start with the same old recommendation and end at different publisher pages.
Compare the actual item with the original reference. A promotional report about a documentary may supply the title and producer, while an episode page supplies the work itself. If several entries appear, retain the programme and episode before choosing which one to share.
Confirm the current entry before recommending it
The 2023 announcement describes removal of 公視APP. Use current publisher information for any present store or device installation question. The linked video platform helps investigate a work’s current offer, which has its own period and player choices.
Send the relative the specific programme or report, its date and the official entry you found. Include the old app name if they need to understand why their instructions changed. That gives them the intended work without requiring another search for the retired app.
