VIZIO SmartCast TV(SM) Brings Popular Entertainment from the NBC App to the Big Screen

With the integration of the NBC app into the VIZIO SmartCast TV platform, users can browse and stream episodes of their favorite NBC hit TV series directly on their VIZIO SmartCast displays. With the touch of a button on the 2017 remote, users with a valid cable or satellite subscription will have instant access to NBC favorites such as This Is Us, Will & Grace and The Good Place, right at their fingertips.

"One of the biggest benefits of the VIZIO SmartCast platform is its rapidly expanding catalog of streaming TV shows and movies, powered by over a thousand TV and mobile apps," said Bill Baxter, SVP of Product Development and Engineering, VIZIO. "VIZIO is continuously expanding the line-up by adding popular favorites, like the NBC app. We're excited to give consumers access to the NBC app on SmartCast TV so they can stream episodes of their favorite hit TV series at any time."

While SmartCast TV brings apps to the big screen, the free VIZIO SmartCast Mobile^™ app for iOS and Android^TM transforms mobile devices into the ultimate touchscreen remote. The app features a new navigational menu that allows users to easily browse SmartCast TV from their mobile device.
