WATCH VIDEO. The three main Flemish television broadcasters VRT, VMMa and SBS Belgium have launched an iOS app for live television and catch-up TV: Stievie.
The jointly promoted Stievie shows live channels and catch-up TV up to 36 hours after the original broadcast.
Programming from public channels VRT Een, Canvas, and Ketnet/OP12 is available as well as from all VTYM channels (VTM, 2BE, Vitaya, JIM, and VTMKZOOM) and SBS Belgium (Vier and Vijf).
The app, the platform and the various payment models will be tested over the next four months. The broadcasters will take on a maximum of 10,000 users for the initial test phase.
The app is currently only available for Apple’s iOs.
