TV Player comes to Samsung tablets

September 21, 2016 11.32 Europe/London By Robert Briel

tvplayer_google_playUK’s online TV platform TVP Player will be among the first streaming video platforms to be pre-installed on all new Samsung tablets.

The complete rollout will be available on 24 variants of six tablet versions to over 700,000 devices in the UK over the next 12 months: Galaxy View, Galaxy Tab S2, Galaxy Tab Active, Galaxy Tab A, Galaxy Tab E and Galaxy Tab S. Two variants of both the Galaxy Tab S2 and the Galaxy Tab A 2016 are the first to be currently deployed with the TVPlayer pre-installed app.

TV Player offers consumers free access to more than 60 free-to-air channels, anytime on any connected device, through a single app, and is offered as both a live-and catch-up TV service across web, iOS and android apps, as well as Amazon Fire and Apple TV.

“In a world where there are more mobile devices than people, TV Player meets consumer appetite for live TV to be available anywhere, anytime and on any device,’’ said Adam Smith, founder and CEO of TV Player.

“We are delighted to be collaborating with Samsung to further enhance the delivery of content in a streamlined and flexible way to more UK consumers.”

Existing Samsung tablet users will be able to download TV Player from the Google Play store. New and existing Samsung users will receive an exclusive three-month free trial of TV Player plus.
