Imagine a service as easy to use as your TV, only smarter and more personalized. Thats Showyou.

With Showyou, youre in charge of the lineup. You can follow 100s of channels on Showyou, including fan-funded channels with exclusive programming like Fast Lane Daily or free channels from top publishers on the web like The Verge, Buzzfeed, the New York Times, and Vevo.

And, you can get recommendations on what you should watch from people you know and trust -- including people you know on Showyou, top bloggers and curators, and contacts on social networks like Twitter.

Once youve set up Showyou, its tuned to your tastes and interests, and its available on all your devices. You can even use Showyou to power your TV if you have an Apple TV (via Airplay) or Chromecast.

Whenever you launch the app, we’ll highlight the best things for you to watch. Our personalized feeds are perfect for those times where you’ve got just ten to twenty minutes and want to see the day’s best videos.

You can also use Showyou to spend time catching up on your favorite channels, which are always just a tap away.

Watching videos on Showyou is effortless. Tap to play a video and then sit back and watch all the videos in your feeds or channels; or use the carousel to browse video-by-video.
