“Consumers have shown us how much they love WatchFree+, making
it the number two most watched, free, ad-supported app on the VIZIO
platform, and we’re absolutely thrilled to make the service
available to everyone in the VIZIO mobile app – whether they have a
VIZIO TV or not,” said Katherine Pond, Group Vice President of
Platform Content & Partnerships at VIZIO. “Making great
entertainment affordable and accessible to everyone has always been
core to our mission, and we are excited to offer even more users
access to the amazing content and great experience that WatchFree+
offers.”
Packed with more than 260 free, live entertainment and 40 local
channels, including top sports, news, entertainment, and kids
content, WatchFree+ users can now access hours of bingeable content
wherever they may be. With amazing shows including Law & Order:
SVU, Deal or No Deal, and Project Runway, WatchFree+ is the perfect
companion to discover and binge a variety of content.
WatchFree+ allows users to pick up where they left off on their
VIZIO TV at home directly on their phone, so they never miss a
second of their favorite show. Users can continue watching the
latest news from CNN Headlines during their morning commute or
catch up on their fan-favorite series such as Bachelor Nation or
The Walking Dead Universe while they wait to board a plane.
WatchFree+ users can also personalize their bingeing experience by
favoriting their top channels and browsing through customized
recommendations directly in the app. With 24 categories to choose
from, users can easily jump to their favorite with a simple
click.
Building on the popularity of the existing VIZIO mobile app that
allows users to control VIZIO TVs and soundbars, this latest update
also includes a Home tab that serves as a central discovery point.
This allows users to organize and launch their “favorite” apps to
their VIZIO TV as well as explore TV show and movie
recommendations.
WatchFree+ is available to everyone in the VIZIO app with a free
VIZIO Account on iOS and Android devices in the United States. To
