How does the Fizz TV app work and what are its functions?
How Fizz TV works Fizz TV delivers television by IPTV which means your TV channels are delivered over your Fizz Home Internet connection. There is no terminal. Fizz TV works through a multiplatform app which you download on a compatible device. You can then watch your content on that device or cast it onto your smart TV. With your Fizz Internet subscription, your TV plan allows up to five (5) simultaneous viewings across your house and devices. An error message will appear if you try to start a 6th simultaneous viewing. Guide The guide function will display the programs scheduled for different channels. Select Guide from the main menu to access the Guide at any time. Explore live content, previously aired content, and future programming through the Guide. Guide filter preferences can be configured to view only the content you want in your Guide. There are four (4) primary options available for filtering Guide content: All channels: All channels offered on Fizz TV, including those you are not currently subscribed to. Subscribed channels (default): The channels included in your Fizz TV plan. My TV: The channels you selected as your favourites. Lookback channels: All channels available in your plan with the lookback functionality. A genre filter (Sports, News, etc.) can be layered over these filters. Good to know My TV: You may select your favourite channels for quick access. Favourite channels can be set to appear exclusively in the Guide, or can be accessed at any time from My favourites. Lookback TV: You may scroll back in the Guide to access previously aired programming on a large number of channels up to 72 hours after the original airing (channel dependent). If the title is grayed out, it means that the content is not available to rewatch. On demand content With
