There was a link to the app earlier in this thread that let you install it on a kindle fire hd. I'm using it on mine.

Mind you i have a tivo and not sure if the streaming works if you haven't got one?

You can't even sign into the app if you haven't got TiVo

For customers without TiVo, you can use the web version of TV Anywhere only

Ahh thanks. Can you explain how this is done on Android please?

It's not, same as it's not on iOS either.

You need Flash 11.4 or above on a PC running Windows (not Windows RT) or a Mac to be able to use the web version of TV Anywhere

Ben, is there any plans to add access to VOD content via the iOS/Android apps at any stage?

BenMcr · 06-12-2013, 10:59

I think it was mentioned when the iOS app was launched, but no info on when/how it will be done

Ok, thanks for the update Ben.

I was just wondering as I recently bought a Now TV box and been using that with the Now TV iOS apps and thought it was a great service. It got me thinking that the VM TV Anywhere app would be a great app if it offered the same VOD content as you can get via the web version.

The 4.4.2 update for Android is rolling out now, my Nexus 4 received the update last night.

I trust when the app is updated for the base version of 4.4, it will work on 4.4.2 ......right?

mikcoles · 17-12-2013, 22:55

Still nothing for 4.4 then, not working that hard on it.

Stephen · 17-12-2013, 23:13

Well there is nothing released. Doesn't mean the guys in the testing team aren't working on it.

paultrademark · 17-12-2013, 23:20

4.5 will probably be out before it

Stephen · 18-12-2013, 00:05

I do not think that at all.

More fool them then. VM will try to get a 4.4 compatible version out as soon as they possibly can.
