 FAQs

1. Can I watch IPL for free?
If you have a Jio number, you can use the JioTV app to watch IPL matches on Star Sports or Sony Ten for free. During IPL season, Jio often runs prepaid recharge offers (for example, ₹299 or more) that include complimentary JioHotstar access for a certain period. Just keep an eye on those special offers!

2. Which app is best for watching international series?
For big ICC events like the World Cup or T20 World Cup, JioHotstar is usually the top choice. If you want to watch India’s specific tours (for instance, India’s tour of England), SonyLIV often has exclusive rights. FanCode is also handy for associate-nation series or some women’s matches that bigger apps might not cover.

3. Do I need a Jio number to use JioTV and JioHotstar?
Yes. Both JioTV and the free tier of JioHotstar require you to log in with a valid Jio number. Without a Jio number, you’d have to subscribe to Hotstar’s paid plans separately.

4. How long does the free SonyLIV access last with the Vi plan?
The Vi ₹95 prepaid pack gives you SonyLIV Premium Mobile access for 28 days. After that, you’ll need to renew your subscription—either by recharging with another Vi plan that includes SonyLIV or by subscribing to SonyLIV directly.

5. Can I watch these apps on a smart TV?
Yes. JioHotstar, SonyLIV, and FanCode all have smart TV apps or support casting (Chromecast, AirPlay, etc.). JioTV and the Tata Play Mobile App are more phone- and tablet-focused, but you can mirror or cast your screen if your TV supports it.

6. How do I know if FanCode has free matches?
FanCode usually highlights free-to-watch matches in their app’s “Offers” or “Free Matches” section. You might also see notifications on their social media channels. Just check before a series starts, and you’ll know which matches are free.
