watching on their TV with their remote, on any U-verse TV screen. It’s another
example of how we continue to enhance and bring more value to the U-verse
experience.


With the help of this app, users will be able to connect

news feed, friends list and photos. Also they can post status updates and share
information along with interacting with friends and view their timelines,
photos, and status updates.
