Verizon FIOS App For Android Gives You On-The-Go TiVo
Don’t ask me why I used TiVo in the title. It’s just one of those things. I use Google Maps exclusively but I’ll always tell someone “just Mapquest it”. I guess it’s the same reason you call a tissue a Kleenex, a photocopy a Xerox, or heck – an internet search a Google (regardless of whether or not you’re using Bing).
ANYWAYS, if you’re a customer of Verizon FIOS TV and have an Android Phone then YOU my friend are in luck: an application will let you manage your upcoming recordings directly from your device. You may have already known that a web-based version of this service already existed, but the Android application takes the cake.
What can you do with the free application?
- browse through TV schedule /listings
- bookmark shows
- create new recordings
- list currently recorded programs
- view upcoming recording schedule
- view available disk space
If you’ve got Verizon FIOS TV this seems like a must-have application, and I’ve gotta give credit to Kevin Tofel of JKonTheRun for reviewing this for all the Android Lovers out there.
