RTL 24 started as a mobile TV news channel on 5 June 2008. It was available through KPN DVB-H.[1] Its broadcast as a mobile TV channel stopped when KPN ceased its DVB-H services on 1 June 2011.[2]

After a short break, RTL 24 re-launched as a mobile app for smart phones, tablet computers and other mobile devices in November 2011.[3] On 19 January 2012 the app changed into RTL Nieuws 365 and therefore the brand RTL 24 discontinued.[4]
