Want to watch iPlayer in Croatia? BBC iPlayer is one of the biggest streaming services in the UK and is free for those inside the UK with a TV licence.
But iPlayer is currently blocked when you’re in Croatia. Discover how to stream BBC iPlayer content when you’re in Croatia.

If you’re on holiday outside the UK you’ll run into trouble accessing the BBC’s online streaming service, but here we show you how to watch BBC iPlayer in Croatia

BBC iPlayer is one of the biggest streaming services in the UK, offering a range of high-quality television and radio shows, plus movies, direct from the BBC, entirely free from advertising.
The shame is that BBC iPlayer is limited to UK viewers, and — in principle — you can only watch it from inside the UK.
But what about holidaymakers and those with homes in two countries? If you’ve paid for it, then you should be able to watch BBC iPlayer when overseas.

How to get BBC iPlayer in Croatia with Smart DNS service?

Here’s a quick rundown of the steps you’ll need to take to get BBC iPlayer on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows or even smart TV if you’re outside of the UK.

How a Smart DNS service works?

Just as Netflix dominates US traffic, BBC iPlayer dominates in the UK, with up to 6 per cent of all our internet traffic going the BBC.
So you lot apparently love it. But you can’t watch the BBC while you’re overseas.

Smart DNS Service is sophisticated technology which allows Internet users all over the world to unblock Geo-Blocked websites like BBC and many more popular websites which contain regional-restricted content.

Some of the main advantages of using a Smart DNS service to unblock BBC iPlayer include:

Minimal loss of speed.
Smart DNS service only needs to re-route specific information relating to your geographical location — unlike a VPN which needs to re-route ALL of your internet data in order for you to visit just one site.

Very easy to use and install on ALL of your devices. Aeroshield has been specifically designed for easy installation.
So you can unblock BBC iPlayer in Croatia from any device including your PC, Laptop, Kindle Fire, Apple TV, Gaming Console, Smart Phone, Android device and most other Internet capable devices.

Smart DNS service works by simply changing the DNS of your device when trying to access regional blocked content from websites such as BBC.
Your data is quickly re-routed through a dedicated proxy server which is conveniently located in the UK.
This means that you will appear to be located within the country or region where viewing has been permitted when trying to watch Geo-blocked content from your home country.

Here are some of the best Smart DNS services for BBC iPlayer, in our experience:

Aeroshied. This service is top of the pile; it offers a complete service with the best security and privacy settings we have seen. 3 days FREE trial! It costs from as little as 3.1 GBP per month. Sign up here.

VPN Privacy. Another of our favourite Smart DNS services with top security and privacy features and simple-to-use apps. It’s available for around 4.1 USD per month.
