Amazon wants to promote the use of the guide on its Fire TVs. Yes, even if it goes unnoticed, the Amazon devices that allow any television to become a Smart TV have a guide to have the programming under control. And the company has thought that a good impulse is the power add channels as favorites.
Amazon’s Fire TV guide allows access to live television. Based on the platforms and applications that we have installed, we can access a more or less extensive program among which we can get lost. That’s why the new function is useful: allows us to locate our favorite channels.
For all live tv
The company has released this new feature on the blog they have for the Fire TV range. Devices that now allow users to customize the channel guide thanks to a new option that appears in the menu.
When entering the guide (in the case of Pluto TV and RTVE Play programming) if we enter any channel and press the button with the three stripes on the Fire TV remote control we will see how the option ” Add Channels” within the guide.
This new option allows you to create and add channels to a list. Of course, these are free and subscription-based service channels available on the platform so that, for example, you will not be able to add content from Netflix, Prime Video… These are the applications and platforms (they are available depending on the country) that can be used to add favorites to channels:
