HBO for iPhone

My love affair with a TV has been cast on-again-off-again. With the advent of the Internet streaming, TV pull on my heart once again. HBO has just entered the arena with a new application of mobile streaming, HBO GO, available on the iPhone and Android based phones. GO HBO placed in the palm of your hand all the amazing original television programming HBO, and a large catalog of movies.

GO HBO work similar to other mobile streaming applications, such as Netflix (subscription free but required, starting at $ 7.00 per month, 4 stars). As with Netflix and TV applications iPad Time Warner Cable, you must subscribe to view the content, although the application itself is free. This application works well, and the picture and audio quality is excellent. A minor bugs and inconsistencies in some of the possible outcomes of brand-new application and in any case they are small. After the contents of safes HBO at your fingertips will help you forget a little of this disorder.

Not TV ...
To get set up, download and install the application, choose your television provider and log in (to authenticate that you are an HBO subscriber), and create an account with a user name, email address, and password.
app's home screen advertise a display content, such treme, an HBO television series exclusively. Along the bottom, the navigation menu that lets you dive into the category (to view the content of the genre), Search, Monitoring (where you can save a list of things to watch), and Sign Out.

Currently, the categories showing movies, Series, Comedy, Sports, Documentary, and Late Night. Select a category, and the next screen lets you browse to another level. Options change depending on the category you choose, but for example, to Late Night, you can choose from Feature, AZ (to see all the listings for the category in alphabetical order), Specials, and movies. In the Series, the choices are All, Featured Episode, and Family.

Once you start browsing the catalog, the options available become more visual. Stills from the film and advertising artwork to persuade you of the content. Did I just see the title of the show Bored to death without a picture, I'll forget that it's a fairly new series I have been meaning to check out. Fig star Jason Schwartzman helped rekindle my interest.

In testing, I found the picture quality via Wi-Fi signal worthy to be great. I kicked open the first episode Bored to death and start watching. I killed the app for about five minutes, and released back to see what will happen. The event was continued where he left off. At the 15 minute mark, the application crashed, though, and when I re-launched this time, I have to start showing again from scratch. I can scrub forward using the slider at the top of the screen and find my place, but I prefer if the app kept my place. Once again, I quit the app in the middle of the episode (on purpose), and again when I re-launched, the application does not indicate that I started watching the episode.

When you select a show, the app provides a snapshot of the title, with year made, leading actor, and more. I want to see the options on this page to "continue," not just so I can pick up where I left off, but also to remind me that I've started to watch a particular title.
One great feature is the ability to add Pass Series. Pass your Series automatically communicate to Watchlist (stored shows and movies you want to view, similar to Netflix's Instant Queue) each new episode of a television show while airing the latest season.

Some other nice features in mobile applications HBO GO is the ability to stream video via the only Wi-Fi or 3G network, a warning signal when you're about to streaming via 3G, and parental controls. One of the features that need a little more work is the search tool, which requires the whole word, not just a few letters, to return the results. For example, "Sopra" I left empty-handed, but "Sopranos" do the trick.

... It's HBO!
Go HBO users have access to HBO original content, as well as movies on-demand network license from their mobile devices. When it comes to choosing a diet of entertainment, HBO is one of the four main food groups. With shows like The Wire, The Sopranos, Six Feet Under, the contents of stars. GO HBO free mobile app to download, but you need a subscription HBO to view content. You also must be over 17. If you are not an HBO subscriber but you're interested in what applications are offered, you still can download applications for free preview and choose to get a tour of what is available. If you have HBO and the iPhone or Android-enabled phone, there is no excuse for not downloading this application free.
