This is because we鈥檙e always trying to improve by trying out new things. So we often tweak things to make it easier to find the programmes and information you鈥檙e looking for.</p> <h3>Testing, testing鈥�</h3> <p>Sometimes the only way to tell if a change will work is to test it with real people. To do this, we randomly select one group of people who will see the change, while everyone else continues seeing the site or app as it is. We then look at what difference the change has made in terms of how many programmes people have watched, which links they clicked and so on.</p> <p>If the test goes really well, we鈥檒l make the change to the whole site or app. If not, we鈥檒l stick with the existing version.</p> <h3>Always listening</h3> <p>We have a pop-up survey running continuously on the 麻豆官网首页入口 iPlayer website. It asks what people think of the service and how it could be improved. We also regularly run other types of research like interviews and user tests.</p> </div> <span><span lang="" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="" xml:lang="">Anonymous (not verified)</span></span> <span>03 October 2019</span> Thu, 03 Oct 2019 13:46:29 +0000 Anonymous 4920 at http://bbc-iplayer-help.local http://bbc-iplayer-help.local/questions/recent-changes-to-iplayer/full-screen-mobile <span>How do I access full screen on my phone or tablet?</span> <div class="field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><h3>Android</h3> <p>To view programmes in full screen, To view programmes in聽full screen, you can use the '<strong>pinch聽and zoom</strong>' screen gesture.
