HALIFAX — Eastlink today announced it wants to make things easier for TV customers to manage multiple streaming services and find live content through voice command with its new TV viewing experience powered by TiVo.
Eastlink TV customers who subscribe to the new service can use the TiVo voice-command remote control to access content by saying the name of a show, an actor or even a line from a movie, says the news release.
“We are so excited about the launch of our new TV experience,” said Deborah Shaffner, CEO of Eastlink, in the release. “While these past several months have been challenging for so many of us, they have also made clear the value of a simplified TV experience that makes it easy to find what you want to watch from literally thousands of options. We are confident that this is something our customers are going to love.
“I’ve been using it myself and love that with just a simple voice command, it can find content on live TV, in one of our tens of thousands of on-demand titles, on a recording or even on Netflix and Amazon Prime,” she added. “I was also able to discover new content as it intuitively learns what you like to watch, makes recommendations, and proactively records it for you.”
In addition, Eastlink’s TiVo experience also features a remote finder button, a handy tool when the remote goes missing.
“Eastlink offers a great service to its customers and we’re pleased to have been selected to enhance this further by sharing the TiVo’s award-winning user experience with Eastlink’s audience. Eastlink customers will now be able to find, watch and enjoy their entertainment in one easy-to-use experience,” said Matt Milne, chief revenue officer of TiVo.
