Verizon Activates DVR Anywhere Streaming!

With the rollout of FiOS TV IMG software 3.0, Verizon is bringing new capabilities to us television customers. However, to pull this off you’ll seemingly need both FiOS TV set-box and router hardware in the mix… as the Quantum DVR becomes a video gateway.

Within the home, our entire channel lineups will be available for mobile app streaming – versus the subset of channels Verizon has historically offered. And, as you can see from the pics above, we’ve tested it on an iPhone and iPad. However, Android is also supported – including Amazon Fire variants. Beyond live television, we’ll also have access a certain amount of shows recorded on our Quantum DVRs both in the home or on the go, similar to what Xfinity and TiVo offer. As to the various relationships and remote limitations, we’re just going to have to wait and see.

In your home
Watch every single live TV channel, plus all your DVR content virtually anywhere in your home.

Out of your home
Watch almost all of your DVR content and stream many channels outside your home.

In order for DVR streaming to work, you must first sign in to the Fios Mobile app while connected to your home router.
