Comigo Mobile Client Apps Extended to Enable Television
Experience Via Google® Chromecast
Broadcasters and OTT Operators Can Now Deliver Personalized Streams of Live
Channels, VOD, and Other OTT Content to TVs
YARKONA, Israel — March 18, 2014 — Comigo today announced that its Mobile Client Apps
solution now supports Chromecast, a digital media player by Google®. Through a combination
of Comigo Mobile Client Apps and Google Chromecast, broadcasters and OTT operators can
offer their high-quality live TV channels and video content via mobile devices and stream it to
the TV with a customized user experience on the TV screen.
“Comigo has integrated Google Chromecast support into its Mobile Client Apps to transcend the
traditional video streaming experience on TVs,” said Motty Lentzitzky, Comigo COO. “Our
innovative Mobile Client Apps give OTT players and broadcasters an opportunity to deliver their
content to mobile devices and, on top of that, to harness Google Chromecast abilities to stream
video through a customized user interface on the TV screen. This includes relevant content
metadata and the ability to browse through personalized, recommended VOD, linear TV, and
Internet videos, in addition to enjoying extended social features and interactive applications on
companion mobile devices.”
As with any Google Chromecast-enabled mobile application, using Comigo’s Mobile Client Apps
allow the viewer to select which content to watch and to stream it to the TV. In addition, when
opening Comigo’s mobile app and connecting it to a Google Chromecast device, the end user
