Times TV

- Free on Facebook & YouTube
- From about 90 MB an hour

Quick answer: Times TV does not run its own live player. It streams on its official Times 360 Malawi pages: the evening news (Times Evening News and Times Nkhani Madzulo) goes live on facebook.com/Times360Malawi, and big talk shows such as Times Exclusive and Hot Current stream on youtube.com/@times360malawi. Both are free; you only pay for data.
Two ways to watch
Watch the news live on Facebook
This is where Times TV puts its news bulletins live. The Facebook app is the easiest way; in a browser, Facebook may ask you to log in.
Open the official page
In the Facebook app, search Times 360 Malawi, or open facebook.com/Times360Malawi.
Check it is the real page: about 1.8 million followers, Blantyre. Fake copies with a few thousand followers have posted false news before.
Tap Follow
Follow the page so live bulletins show up in your feed, and you get a notice when Times goes live.
Find the live video
A bulletin that is on air now has a red LIVE badge at the top of the page. Missed it? The page’s Live videos list keeps the full bulletins, such as Times Evening News (English) and Times Nkhani Madzulo (Chichewa).
Short on data? In the Facebook app, open Settings, then Media, and pick Data saver so videos play at a lower quality.
Watch live shows on YouTube
The official channel is Times 360 Malawi (about 196,000 subscribers). Its big weekly talk shows stream live there, and every stream stays up to watch later.
Open the channel
In the YouTube app, search Times 360 Malawi, or open youtube.com/@times360malawi. The channel describes itself as Times Television.
Tap the Live tab
Swipe the tabs under the channel name to Live. A show on air now has a red LIVE label; the rest are past streams you can replay.
In October 2026, Times Exclusive streamed on Saturdays and Hot Current on Sundays, with Kwagwanji specials and big national events in between.
Lower the quality to save data
Tap the video, then the gear icon, then Quality. Pick 144p or 240p on a small bundle, or Data saver to let YouTube choose.
Get a reminder. Tap Subscribe, then the bell, and pick All. YouTube will tell you when Times starts a live stream.
How much data does Times TV use?
Rounded typical figures for one hour of live video, the same as in our mobile data guide. Video uses far more than radio: an hour of Times TV at 360p costs about as much as 20 hours of Times Radio online. More ways to stretch a bundle: our mobile data guide.

Times TV FAQ
Is it free to watch Times TV online?
Yes. There is no fee or subscription on Facebook or YouTube. You only pay for the data you use, from about 90 MB an hour at the lowest quality.
Does Times TV stream 24 hours a day online?
No. When we checked in October 2026 there was no round-the-clock stream. Times goes live for news bulletins, talk shows and big events, and keeps the recordings on its pages.
Is there a live player on times.mw?
Not that we could find in October 2026. The website is for news articles; for video, use the Facebook page or YouTube channel.
Can I watch from outside Malawi?
Yes. Both pages work anywhere in the world. Malawi is on Central Africa Time (GMT+2), so check the time at home before a live show.
Is there a Times TV app?
The Times Group has a news app called Times360 on Google Play, but we could not confirm it plays live TV. Facebook and YouTube are the safest choice. Avoid unofficial “Malawi TV” apps from unknown developers.
How do I know a page is the real Times 360 Malawi?
Use the links in this guide; they are the ones on the official times.mw website. The real Facebook page has about 1.8 million followers. Fake pages have copied the Times name to spread false news.
