TabletTV Plus launched in the United Kingdom

New User Interface Plus Major Upgrade in Features for UK TabletTV Users

  

 

Motive Television PLC, the technology provider to broadcasters and pay television operators, is pleased to announce that TabletTV Plus has been approved by the Apple App Store and is now available for UK customers. TabletTV Plus will initially be available for iOS platform (iPad) tablets only. An Android tablet version will be forthcoming.

 

TabletTV Plus was launched in mid-November in the United States, met with highly favorable reviews and sold most of the available inventory of TPods. Motive has access to sufficient supply of tuners to satisfy high levels of UK demand.

 

The new TabletTV Plus App greatly enhances the user experience for TabletTV users in the UK and provides many new features, including:

 

· Access any channel available over the internet or on Freeview, and easily switch back and forth between broadcast and internet channels within the same TabletTV Plus App

· Create personal group of favourite internet channels for faster searching and add any TV channel available over the internet to favorites.

· Simultaneously enjoy Freeview television, social network, surf the web or do emails on a split screen

· Share the use of one tuner among multiple iPads in a household, each with the TabletTV App (one at a time)

· Simplified connection to home networks

· Transfer what you are watching from a tablet to the main television screen when combined with Apple TV Airplay.

· Improved, easier and more user-friendly experience

 

Additionally, all previous TabletTV UK features remain such as watching and recording programs on Freeview channels available in the user's region. TabletTV Plus UK is expected be available on the Apple App Store from Wednesday evening 6 January.

 

Existing TabletTV UK customers are able to upgrade to TabletTV Plus with no additional cost. New users can download the free TabletTV Plus App to receive all free and subscription Internet channels and then add watching and recording Freeview live TV with a one-time tuner purchase. Some of the Internet channels may have their own subscription requirements.

 

Leonard M Fertig, CEO of Motive commented, "TabletTV Plus solves the problem of finding a simple, inclusive, and low cost way for viewers to access sports, movies, news, and entertainment in one place. Everything on Freeview plus everything available over the Internet. And now TabletTV Plus users can watch on their main screen TV's as well and share a tuner among members of the the family. TabletTV Plus is a portable home television platform that you can put in your pocket and take with you anywhere."
