Direct from the German Parliament: this app offers regularly updated information about the issues dealt with by the Bundestag, its Members and committees, and services available for visitors. Please note that the app is only available in German.The app launches with articles and background information about the most important debates taking place at the Bundestag.Plenary sittings and public committee meetings are broadcast live. When a plenary sitting is taking place, “Plenum/TV” takes you straight to the plenary chamber: find out what subject is currently being discussed in Parliament, who is speaking, and what topics are on the agenda for the current sitting. You can follow the debate live using the audio and video streams. Your smartphone or tablet will immediately show when the next speaker takes the floor or the debate moves on to the next item on the agenda.If a plenary sitting is not taking place, “Plenum/TV” takes you to the agendas for the next sittings, information about upcoming debates and a description of the functions and composition of the German Bundestag.Parliamentary Television also broadcasts recordings of past public committee meetings, public hearings and plenary debates.The “MdB” section introduces all the Members of the German Bundestag. You will find photos and biographical information about the parliamentarians, details of their registered outside interests – including outside employment and income – information about their membership of committees and other Bundestag bodies, and their contact details.The German Bundestag’s committees play a key part in its work. They prepare laws, examine and scrutinise the work of the government, and raise important topical issues. The “Ausschüsse” section describes the tasks of each of the 23 permanent committees and the committees of inquiry and lists the members and the chairperson of each committee. It also offers reports on the issues being discussed by the committees and their work, and recordings of public committee meetings.The German Bundestag is an open parliament, welcoming more than 4 million visitors each year.

The recipient will receive a text message or email containing a link to the article or video.The Menu button at the top right allows you to update the app’s data (“Daten aktualisieren”). In your settings (“Einstellungen”) you can determine how often the data is updated, and much more.Fixing of a loading error in the committee page

In a light of war in Ukraine. Germans sent to Ukraine faulty weapon. There is no change to Germans from WWII and you will be always the same. Remember Ribbentrop-Molotov pact? Shame on you 😕. This is how your history gained another nasty scar...

Ein Dunkelmodus wäre sehr angenehm!

Wollte mir Debatten am TV anschauen, aber die App unterstützt kein Chromecast! TV-App zu umständlich per Fernbedienung, Barrierefreiheit sieht anders aus.

Please add the feature that lets you listen to the live stream in the background. Listening to the Audio while having the screen running drains to much of the battery.

I wrote a bad review a few months back based on an older version, but I want to take it back. The app is really snappy now and everything works as it should!!!

Das letzte Release hatte nicht gut funktioniert, seit heute funktioniert alles. Vielen Dank für die schnelle Rückmeldung und Beseitigung des Fehlers.

Reagiert langsam, bleibt teilweise auch hängen und obwohl es der App erlaubt wurde erhält man keine Benachrichtigung wenn Sitzung des Bundestages ansteht ☹☹ So keine Empfehlung möglich....
