In the ongoing effort to provide XFINITY customers with even greater accessibility of television shows and movies on their mobile devices, Comcast recently unveiled the XFINITY TV Player app for the Kindle Fire HD. Already available for the iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, and Android devices, this newest addition to the XFINITY TV Player app family allows customers to conveniently stream 20,000 On Demand programs from networks such as HBO, Showtime, Encore, and Cinemax onto their Kindle Fire HD device. The app additionally allows users to download thousands of television shows and movies, which can be viewed on the Kindle Fire HD without an internet connection, making this app a must-have for anyone on the go.
The TV Player app allows those customers who already subscribe to XFINITY to stretch their entertainment dollars a lot further. There are no additional charges for streaming or downloading programs from channels that are already paid for through the original cable service subscription, though the data usage thresholds for mobile devices do apply. Customers will be able to view up-to-date movies and TV shows, and once programs are downloaded they are available even when offline, with no limitations on repeated viewing. Additional features of the XFINITY TV player app include the ability for customers to search and browse programming options, 10 downloads per device, parental controls, and the option to choose the video quality upon download.
The XFINITY TV Player for the Kindle Fire HD is the newest addition to the XFINITY mobile apps. Since 2010, Comcast has aimed to develop innovative apps in their ongoing mission to bring customers greater accessibility and flexibility to where and when they view content. Comcast has launched 10 apps in the last three years, with the XFINITY TV apps for mobile devices being downloaded more than 12 million times. In addition to the TV Player, XFINITY allows sports fans to set and record games, and change channels from game to game using their iPhones or iPads with the Sports Remote app. As well as giving customers live scores from the major professional and college sports teams, the app allows users to filter scores and games by league and favorite team. And for the tech savvy homeowner, the XFINITY Home app gives parents and homeowners a piece of mind by allowing them to remotely monitor the security of their home, adjust the thermostat, and turn on or off the lights from anywhere with just the touch of their mobile device.
The XFINITY TV Player app for the Kindle Fire HD is currently available as a free download from the Amazon Appstore. Customers must already be XFINITY subscribers for usage of the app.
