This is the official DIRECTV app for those who subscribe to the TV provider, allowing you to stream on-the-go entertainment of plenty of different TV shows from various networks like ABC, NBC, FOX, and even premium content like HBO. You will need to be a DIRECTV customer to use this app, but then again that is probably a given.
ABC has some decent programming and the official app provides a nice way to watch that content from your mobile device, even live content if you aren’t able to watch from your TV at home. You will need to have a subscription to a TV provider, and the live content option is only available in a handful of cities.
If you’re a Comcast subscriber and you have XFINITY TV, then this app can help keep you within arms reach of all your favorite TV shows, including those listed on premium channels. Again, with this app and just like the first two, you’ll need to subscribe to TV content before you can access the app and stream TV.
If HBO content is more your thing, or furthermore, some of the only TV you watch then you’ll definitely want to have the HBO GO app handy so you can stream a show at a moment’s notice. As long as you have TV through a network provider and you subscribe to HBO, you can use HBO GO for free.
VUDU is an app for those who aren’t going to pay a monthly service fee for subscribing to a TV provider, but still want to keep up on shows. VUDU allows you to rent or purchase to own episodes or entire series of shows, which can be played back through your device or streamed to the big screen via Chromecast.
