Starz App Expands to More Android TV Devices

BOSTON: The Starz app has extended its reach by launching on select Android TV devices, making the channel’s original series available to subscribers in more ways.

The app is offered on a range of devices such as Chromecast, Google Nexus Player, Sony Android TV, Apple TV (fourth generation and newer), and iPhones and iPads with an operating system of iOS 7.0 or higher. It is also available on most Android phones, tablets and TV devices. The app can be downloaded via the Google Play Store and the App Store.

Launched last month, the Starz app provides Starz streaming subscriptions directly to consumers, offering the first-ever download capabilities from a premium pay-TV streaming service. Starz subscribers can watch original series such as Outlander and The Girlfriend Experience, as well as first-run films on select Android TV devices. The standalone service allows for up to four users to watch simultaneously with virtually unlimited downloads. Starz subscribers from participating cable, satellite and telco partners can authenticate to view Starz in the app.
