In January 2012, the site was due to be overhauled to offer paid-for content in addition to the existing free 30-day catch up, however this was delayed until 29 October 2012. The new look seamlessly fits in with the redesigned itv.com and has upgraded search features, images and a new Flash video player designed to make playback more reliable. The website version relaunched with a cleaner, less cluttered new look on Monday 22 August 2011. Improvements were made in June/July 2011 to the website version to incorporate subtitles and CITV programming. Nowadays ITV Hub uses HTML5 Media Source Extensions with Encrypted Media Extensions to deliver video. Video is sent at multiple bit rates and uses adaptive technology in the player to best determine rate based on users connection. During Summer 2010, the ITV website was upgraded to detect ad-blocking software.

Previously users have been able to use ad-blocking software to skip the adverts shown. The service is free to use funded by pre-, mid- and post-roll adverts.
In November 2009 the website was revamped again improving navigation as well as making the site more visually appealing. ITV adopted Flash for its player on 15 September 2009. Initially the website version used Microsoft Silverlight as opposed to Adobe Flash (used by BBC iPlayer and Channel 4's 4oD) and Windows Media Video. The service started out as a website before being extended to television and other platforms. ITVX will also include access to Britbox and FAST channels, a Pluto TV-style themed channel selection supported by advertising, which will see The Chase and Hell's Kitchen have their own channels, alongside ones devoted to crime dramas and the 1990s. In 2022, the catch-up facilities found via ITV Hub will be integrated into a new streaming service called ITVX. As of AugustĀ 2021, the service has at least 30 million registered users. On 23 November 2015, ITV gave the app and website a revamp, it was renamed 'ITV Hub'. ITV Player was also branded as ITV Net Player and referred to as the ITV Network Player in branding and communication around programming intended for consumption across the UK, such as on Virgin Media, before adopting the current name. The service was originally called ITV Catch Up but was then rebranded 'ITV Player' on 5 December 2008 as part of ITV's aim to create a recognisable and consistent brand for video-on-demand content across the web and TV. Programmes are available for 30 days on the site after being first shown on ITV. Some programmes, imports and movies are not currently available due to rights issues, and until the latest version, most children's programming in particular was generally unavailable. Some sports programming is available to watch again via the service, the 2010 FIFA World Cup and highlights being examples. The service offers a variety of programmes from homegrown programming to acquisitions across ITV, ITV2, ITV3, ITV4, ITVBe and CITV.
ITV Hub (formerly ITV Player) is an online video on demand service accessible through the main ITV website itv.com.
