Looking for a streaming service that actually prioritizes faith and family? Tugo TV is a free streaming platform offering live channels — including the largest collection of Christian channels ever offered in North America — alongside live news, sports, and family-friendly entertainment.^1
Built by Tugo Media, an award-winning television company with over 30 years of experience funding, producing, and distributing faith-based content (including Academy-nominated productions), Tugo TV was created to fill a gap its founders saw firsthand: faith content was treated as something to avoid in the entertainment industry.^2 Tugo Media pioneered Canada's first licensed faith-based cable channel and has reached over 140 million viewers via PBS, CTV, Vision TV, and other networks.^2
In 2026, Tugo TV launched an all-new native app across every major platform — iOS, Android, Fire TV, Roku, Apple TV, Android TV, and the web — with upgraded features including multi-channel viewing, built-in Bible access, smoother performance, and HD streaming.^1 LG and Samsung Smart TV apps are also now available.^1 The free tier includes 50+ live channels across faith, news, sports, family, and radio categories, with multi-profile creation and ad-supported VOD movies and series on the way.^9
The faith channel lineup includes over 30 Christian networks — from Bible teaching (Amazing Facts TV, NRB TV, In Touch +, The Pioneer Channel) and worship (GOD TV, Impact Gospel, Elevation Church Network) to multilingual and cultural outreach (Mass + Hope Catholic Network, Caribbean Gospel TV, Mercy and Truth Ministries, Jewish Life Television).^4 Secular channels include Gusto TV (cooking), FUEL TV (action sports), and news channels like Newsmax 2, Real America's Voice, and OAN Plus — all curated to be safe for the whole family.^4 Tugo also donates 10% of its annual earnings to charities and faith-based creators.^2
Through its parent company Tugo Media, the platform also offers church leaders and faith creators production services, broadcast licensing, closed captioning, airtime buying, and funding assistance — helping ministries build their own channels and reach audiences globally.^11
Why Christians Love It"This app is great, such a godsend, especially because there's so many great content options to pick from, and it's all family friendly. The quality on each of my devices is consistent as well — crystal clear, and never freezes up on me."^5
"Great looking app and I love that they have a mix of popular and faith channels, even better that it's free."^5
"If you enjoy lots of Bible teaching, there's a lot available for free."^6
