U+tv모바일 – 모바일에서 U+tv 시청

What U+tv모바일 is and who it is for

U+tv모바일 (모바일에서 U+tv 시청) is a companion app for U+tv, the IPTV service. It gathers mobile viewing, TV remote control, the live channel guide and account alerts in one app. The developer lists set-top boxes UHD2, UHD3, UHD4K, UHD4T and the Soundbar Black models as supported, so the TV features apply to households with one of those boxes.

The developer also lists U+, SKT and KT lines and MVNO (알뜰폰) plans, and smartphones and tablets as mobile devices. Anyone who already watches U+tv on a supported box is the natural user.

Watching U+tv on a phone and resuming on the TV

Search for a title in the app and you can start it on the phone right away. The app also carries the viewing position between devices. The developer says a show can be picked up on the phone at the same point it was left on the TV, or the other way round.

Wishlisted titles, watched titles and purchased titles from the TV account appear on the phone as well. You do not have to re-find something you were already following on the television.

Using the phone as a TV remote

The remote feature turns the phone into a controller for the TV, so you can change channels or navigate the screen without the physical remote. It is built for the set-top boxes listed above. Households with a missing or broken remote can use it as a stand-in.

Live channel guide and viewing reservations

The real-time channel schedule for U+tv is viewable on the phone. From there you can send a channel straight to the TV. To catch a program later, you set a viewing reservation on its channel, and the app notifies you before the program begins.

Reservations let you plan an evening from the phone without leaving the guide open on the TV.

Coupon, discount and expiry alerts

The app notifies you when a new coupon is issued and when an existing coupon is close to expiring, so unused discounts are less likely to lapse. Wishlisted content also triggers alerts for discounts and new episodes.

Purchased content sends a notice before its viewing period runs out, so a rental does not end without warning.
