You can watch various channels on AbemaTV's TV & video entertainment service. Sometimes, too! I've heard that ABEMA Premium allows you to record, but is that true? Is it true?
If you have those questions, please continue reading.
There are two plans available at ABEMA.
Basic (free)
Premium (paid)
Each plan has its own set of available movies and features. In addition to the above plans, ABEMA also offers
Rental
Pay-Per-View (Online LIVE)
Regardless of your plan, you can purchase ABEMA Coins to use each service.
Basic (free)
You can watch TV programs and some video clips on air.
ABEMA Premium (paid)
ABEMA Premium is available for a monthly fee of 960 yen (tax included).
If you register for Premium, you will be able to watch all Premium titles.
You can also use [Video Download], [Playback], and [Missed Comment] functions.
ABEMA Premium Free Trial
If you are new to ABEMA Premium, you can take advantage of a free trial for a certain period of time. The free trial period is two weeks.
ABEMA does not have a "screen recording" feature, but it does have a feature called "My Videos" that allows you to watch your favorite programs at any time, just like the recording and reservation feature.
"My Video is like a favorites list, and you can view a list of programs you have added to My Video.
If you use the program list or search function to add programs you want to record to My Video, you can use it as a recording list.
If there is a program that you cannot watch in real time, it is recommended to add it to "My Video" and watch it later if you miss it.
In other words, Abema TV does not have the recording function now, but you can download the content later.
My Video is a page where you can check the list of programs you have added to My Video.
By adding programs that you cannot watch during the broadcast time to My Video in advance, you can use it like a video screen recording function.
It is also a very convenient feature that allows you to add your favorite programs/videos for easy playback anytime.
Now, please see below for the operation method. This method can be used on any smartphone/tablet, PC PC, Android TV/Fire TV, and Apple TV.
