Originally broadcast three times a week for 15 minutes (except during school summer holidays), Ffeil was later broadcast live for four and a half minutes every weekday afternoon throughout the year at 4:50pm, from the BBC's Broadcasting House in Llandaff, Cardiff. The programme was transmitted from Studio C2, the second largest studio in Broadcasting House. Following a relaunch in Spring 2012, Ffeil broadcast as part of S4C's Stwnsh strand on Mondays to Fridays from a smaller presentation studio at 5:00pm during term-time. It moved to New Broadcasting House, Cardiff in September 2020 into a VR green-screen studio and broadcasts on Mondays to Fridays at 5:55pm.

The programme has often been compared to its English-language counterpart, CBBC's Newsround. Ffeil differs in that it is produced directly by the BBC Cymru Wales news and current affairs department, whereas Newsround is produced by CBBC with facilities provided by BBC News. The programme also has an expanded brief to cover Welsh regional news and features, alongside national and international news. The reporters and presenters on Ffeil also regularly contribute to news coverage on BBC Radio Cymru and the nightly Newyddion (Welsh for 'News') programme on S4C.
