X (formerly Twitter) has seen huge changes since Elon Musk acquired it. Two CEOs were changed, and the company changed the whole ‘Verified’ system and turned it into a revenue stream through paid subscriptions. Now, the company is getting close to launching its video streaming app for smart TVs.
A few months ago, X revealed that the company is working on a video streaming app for smart TVs, including Samsung’s. The social media giant has now revealed the design of the app. It largely looks like the YouTube app, with tabs on the left side of the screen and horizontal rows of videos on the rest of the screen. The top row shows trending videos followed by the row of ‘For You’ videos. There is a search bar on the top.
X CEO revealed the company will bring real-time, engaging content to smart TVs with its upcoming app. She claimed the app will offer a high-quality, immersive entertainment experience on larger screens. The company is still building the app, but you can watch a sneak peek of the design in the video below. Since Samsung is the world’s biggest TV brand, the X TV app will be available for Tizen OS as well.
The app will display AI-powered topics and organize videos according to those topics. Thanks to a seamless experience, users can start watching videos on their phones and continue watching them on TV. There will also be a casting option for smartphones and tablets. The app will also have enhanced video search.
