For instance, let’s say you were recently in the middle of watching “Jurassic World” on Peacock, the DIRECTV STREAM Device will now take you back to Peacock with one tap, without leaving the DIRECTV STREAM app. At the outset, it works with apps including Paramount+, HBO Max, Disney+, discovery+, and Peacock – though Prime Video and Netflix are not compatible yet. The company says that support for additional apps will be coming soon.
In order to allow you to swiftly resume where you left off in external platforms like Paramount+ and HBO Max, DIRECTV STREAM has included a feature. The streamer has included a new third-party app carousel to its most recent update for users of the DIRECTV STREAM Android TV device (also known as the “DIRECTV STREAM Device”), which will display the most recent material that users were watching in OTT streaming apps.
