Time Warner Cable Launches App for Smart TVs

NEW YORK: Starting this summer, a TWC TV application will be available on Samsung Smart TVs delivering VOD content from almost 100 channels.

Customers of the cable platform will be able to access about 5,000 VOD titles on their compatible Samsung Smart TVs without a set-top box. “Time Warner Cable is giving customers more flexibility in how they watch the content they love through our TWC TV application for Samsung Smart TVs,” said Mike Angus, senior VP and general manager for video at Time Warner Cable. “We’re committed to giving customers the best television viewing experience as we expand the ways they already use TWC TV.”

Eric Anderson, VP of content and product solutions at Samsung Electronics America, added, “The application will provide existing Time Warner Cable subscribers with more control and choice for how they access their Time Warner Cable content over their Samsung Smart TVs without having to be tethered to their cable box.”
