Generally, BBC Red Button offers text and video based services, as well as enhanced television programmes which offer extra information, video or quizzes.

In September 2005, BBCi launched an update to the interactivity available from the [[BBC Radio|BBC's Radio]] channels on Freeview. Originally only Radiotext was available. After the update, users could access information about the programme, schedules, news, sport and weather. From 2005, Freeview users could access the CBBC Extra video stream.

The same team behind the BBC's digital text service also launched the early incarnations of the BBC's Interactive Wimbledon and Interactive Open Golf services in 2000, which were awarded an [[BAFTA Interactive Awards|Interactive BAFTA]] that year.

The News Multiscreen was removed from the digital service in October 2009, to make room for future Freeview HD broadcasts.<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2009/10/change_to_freeview.html BBC – The Editors: Closing the News Multiscreen] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200812062537/https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2009/10/change_to_freeview.html |date=12 August 2020 }} Pete Clifton.

As of July 2022, the Question Time page on p155 appears to be outdated since January 2018, as it still states that the show will be returning on January 11 from Islington.

Here is a table of the contents of the BBC Red Button as of March 2023:
