If you’ve ever used Sling TV, you must have noticed that the streaming service’s app wasn’t the most user-friendly one.
The company realized that its app needs some improvement and has decided to completely redesign it to provide a new app experience with more personal features and an easy-to-use interface.
Sling TV Redesigned App Should Arrive Soon
Sling TV has announced that it is launching a redesigned version of its streaming app. The company says that this redesign is considered to be the “most comprehensive update in Sling TV’s history.” The new Sling TV app version should bring changes that would make it easier to discover content and navigate the app.
According to a Sling press release, the reimagined app acquired a few unique features that should make using the app a breeze:
Innovation is at the core of the new experience, with unique features like a section within the Home Screen spotlighting a mix of personalized recommendations and editorial curation; the dedicated DVR tab with a trash bin making it easy to delete and manage storage capacity; and the reimagined Guide allowing users to expand program view to get more details without a single click.
So, all of the content recommendations will be located directly on the new Home Screen, which will make it quicker to spot something worth watching. The Guide also went through a major change: Sling TV simplified the process of marking favorite channels, recording a show, and more.
Another new feature that will make an appearance on the re-imagined Sling TV app is the DVR tab. Now all of the recorded content will be stored there.
And that’s not all. The redesigned app also gets improved navigation and a Smart Search feature to help find the needed content. Moreover, Sling TV promises that there will be even more features coming to the app in future releases.
Currently, the redesigned Sling TV app is available in beta version and only on select Amazon Fire TV devices. But it should roll out across all other compatible devices this year.
Comprehensive Design Improvements in the Sling TV App
Choosing to re-imagine the Sling TV app and add new features is definitely a great decision. Of course, it may take you some time to get used to the redesigned app, but the changes should bring a few benefits.
