After years of self debate, I finally bit the bullet and got myself a TiVo system for my TV. As many of you know, the device enables one to record, pause, playback live TV, and access some Internet streaming services such as Blockbuster, Amazon Prime, YouTube, and others.
While the actual set up of the device was something to be desired (due to my screw ball cable company) – using the device is easy, innovative, and down right fun to operate.
The experience is enhanced when one downloads the TiVo app for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad [iTunes Links].
In order for the app to work, the TiVo has to be connected to your WiFi network with a “TiVo approved” wireless network adapter (sold separately).
The app allows a TiVo user to control their device via an iOS device, including:
* Changing Channels.
* Channel Listings.
* List Shows that have been recorded.
* Play, Delete, and Record controls.
* Remote access to your TiVo (via 3G or WiFi).
* Scheduling Recordings.
The app set up is easy and you’ll be accessing your TiVo device in no time.
