You knew that Sainsbury’s offered TV and Movie content over your smartphone, didn’t you? No, I’ll admit, neither did I, but I do now.
If you use Sainsbury’s Entertainment and have their app, you can now output your favourite content to your TV via Chromecast. It’ll also let you use your smartphone as a remote control or you can simply carry on using Twitter, Facebook or whatever cool app you kids are into nowadays when you’ll chillin’ in front of the TV.
The app has just been updated and is available for both Android and iPhone. Once you’ve grabbed it you’ll be able to stream everything from the Sainsbury’s Entertainment Library, which I honestly never knew existed until 12 minutes ago. Choose your TV show or movie, pay for it and then, if you need a break whilst viewing, use the app to control the content.
SAINSBURY’S ENTERTAINMENT UNVEILS CHROMECAST APP TO TV SERVICE
· Sainsbury’s Entertainment app lets you stream content to your TV
· All movies and TV shows in the Sainsbury’s Entertainment library are available
· The app lets you use your mobile device as a remote control
Sainsbury’s Entertainment has today announced that customers can now watch content direct from the Sainsbury’s Entertainment app on their TV screens.
The Sainsbury’s Entertainment app now has Chromecast functionality which gives you the ability to view the latest movies and TV shows in the comfort of your home. With Sainsbury’s Entertainment you can now watch TV instantly whenever and wherever you want – and transform your mobile device into a remote control.
Simply download the Sainsbury’s Entertainment app (available on iOS and Android) and, once you’ve purchased and set up Chromecast, you’ll be able to stream content from the Sainsbury’s Entertainment library direct to your TV.
Once connected, you can pause, rewind, fast-forward and adjust volume on your mobile device. During playback, you can exit the movie or TV show on your device and carry on browsing or even leave the app while playback continues on the TV.
Sharon Nightingale, Head of Commercial, Sainsbury’s Entertainment commented: “We are delighted to now be able to offer our customers our fast-growing range of movies and TV shows via Chromecast. This launch will make it easier to enjoy the shows and movies you love on a bigger screen in the comfort of your home.”
