Cartoon Network App

Cartoon episodes in one place

Cartoon Network App is a video app for watching Cartoon Network and Cartoonito programmes on Android TV. It suits households looking for familiar animated series rather than a general video service. The catalogue includes shows such as Teen Titans GO!, Craig of the Creek, We Baby Bears, The Amazing World of Gumball, Batwheels and Bugs Bunny Builders, along with shorter minisodes.

What you can watch without signing in

Some full episodes are unlocked, so viewing does not always require an account or TV-provider login. New unlocked episodes are added each week, and episodes may become available the day after broadcast. You can also choose the shows you care about, making the opening screen more focused on those series instead of treating every title equally.

Where the trade-off appears

The free selection is only part of the service. A TV-provider login can open additional episodes, which makes the app more useful for viewers whose household already pays for a participating cable or satellite service. Without that access, another video app may offer a broader catalogue or a more consistent selection, while this one keeps its focus on Cartoon Network programming.

• Choose it for: Cartoon Network and Cartoonito series, unlocked episodes, weekly additions and a show-focused Android TV experience.
• Look closely at: the limited unlocked selection, provider authentication for more content and advertising from Cartoon Network and its partners.

Audience response

Cartoon Network lists a 3.5 rating from about 135,000 reviews and more than 10 million installs. Those figures show broad use, but the middling rating is a reason to compare its viewing access and restrictions with the alternative before choosing it.
