The challenge
The hypothesis: faster, more satisfying decisions about live TV would raise the perceived value of the whole service. Through stakeholder interviews and user tests we set two goals — help people regularly discover new content, and easily follow the shows they already watch.
What we built
A 360° TV guide for smartphones, tablets and web: what’s on now, a content-first alternative to the classic grid, filters, favourite channels and detail pages. The adoption was strong enough that remote recording and a touch-screen remote control were added later.
