HBO GO – home box office on your iPhone

By
On May 11, 2011

HBO GO is an application which¬† works similarly to other mobile phone streaming apps, such as Netflix (free but requires subscription). As with Netflix and Time Warner Cable’s TV iPad app , you need subscription to view content, even though the app itself is free. The application works well, and the picture and audio quality are excellent. Some minor bugs and inconsistencies are most likely the result of the app being brand new. Having the contents of the HBO vault at your fingertips should help you forget these little glitches.

 

 

The categories that this application has are  Movies, Series, Comedy, Sports, Documentaries, and Late Night. By selecting  any of the categories, and the next screen lets you go  to another level. The options change depending on which category you select, but for example, for Late Night, you can choose from Featured, A-Z (to see all listings for the category alphabetically), Specials, and Movies. In Series, the options are All, Featured Episodes, and Family.

As soon as  you start looking into  the catalog, available options become more visual.
