Tata Sky, a direct-to-home service provider,
announced that its new Tata Sky Mobile Access application has become the No. 1
application to be downloaded on the App Store within a week of its launch.
The Tata Sky Mobile Access App is a natural integration
of TV entertainment with these smart devices and is the first-of-its-kind
functionality offered by any DTH service provider in India. The highly
anticipated Tata Sky Mobile Access App has lived up to our expectations and we
are further pleased to inform that the android version will also be available
soon,” said Vikram Mehra, chief marketing officer, Tata Sky.
Tata Sky in association with Ryz Media has
introduced ‘Tata Sky Mobile Access’, a cutting edge app for Apple devices. This
app enables subscribers to user their iPhones, iPads and iPod Touch as a
universal remote to control consumer electronic devices in their homes.
In addition, subscribers can use the app to
access 4-day programme listings, read extended information for movies; search
for programs based on title and set their favourite shows for recording on the
go.
Keeping in line with the constant need for
being connected to friends and family through social platforms, Tata Sky Mobile Access allows subscribers to share what they are watching on TV
through Facebook and Twitter.
Further, the app allows subscribers to view
which programmes their Facebook friends are currently watching, helping them to
decide on what to watch. At launch, this app will be available on Apple Devices
only and can be downloaded free of cost from the iTunes store. An app for
Android devices will be launched shortly after.
