The future of television, to a large extent, is being able to watch the programs when you want, not when a programming manager decides. This is what is known as television on demand And, thanks to the applications offered by Samsung in its store, you can get this on your mobile devices and, in this way, enjoy a little more of what is broadcast.
At first, the networks that broadcast in Spain were choked on the Internet, since they hardly used it and did not see a way to take advantage of it. But this has changed and channels such as La Sexta or Antena 3 have shown that they have well-organized, structured and created applications or web pages that have their benefits.
Television networks have made so much progress in integrating with the Internet that there is no longer a lack of applications that allow you to watch your favorite programs anywhere on phones or tablets. For this reason, in Samsung Apps There are applications that allow television on demand in a simple and comfortable way. Specifically, we have selected three that are an excellent example of how they are and work - much better in tablets, it must be said, and if you have an HDMI connection, it is almost perfect. In addition, each of them has its own particularities that we will comment on below.
Antenna Television 3
The most careful of all, one of its great virtues is its ease of use. It includes a direct connection with Facebook, in order to comment on what is being seen but have surprisingly forgotten about Twitter. But in social networks it complies. Regarding the structure, in Antena 3 they have done very well, since everything is very easy to find and use. Of course, it is incomprehensible that it does not have access to live programming, something that if you are traveling is an interesting option (in addition, the current connections give plenty for it).
ClanTV
The channel for children also has a place in Samsung Apps. This application can become a great ally of parents, and almost all its contents are the same as those that can be seen on the television channel ... which is one of the most viewed themes in Spain. One of the drawbacks that we have seen in this program is that it can only be used in portrait mode, something that should be improved. Apart from the series, such as Pocoyo, there are sections on language learning, taking photographs and making montages with the characters in the drawings, or games in which you have to color. You can access social networks and share content by mail. A very complete application.
This is the application that belongs to the Mediaset group, whose reference channels are Telecinco and Cuatro, it has a striking design, such as the graphic menu to select content ... which is really very successful. Here you can find the live programming, to options of choosing the most seen or searching alphabetically. When it comes to social media, Facebook has a presence, as does Twitter.
