First Update to TabletTV US Released to Apple

New capabilities and improved performance; first in a series of updates

Today Motive announces that it has released the first TabletTV update in the United States featuring new capabilities and improved performance. The new version 3.24 has been submitted to the Apple App Store for review and is expected to be available to TabletTV US customers within a week. The new App will seamlessly update the software and T-Pod firmware automatically through the standard update process without any cost to TabletTV users.

This update is the first in a series of improvements that will be available in the next weeks and months in accordance with Motive's product roadmap and feedback from users. While this initial update applies to TabletTV US, the first update to feature additional features and improvements for TabletTV customers in the UK will soon be released by Motive.

Among the future updates will be the release of TabletTV Europe, the addition of Chromecast capability, and the extension of TabletTV to Android devices.

Specifically, TabletTV 3.24 provides better WiFi performance between the T-Pod and tablet, automatically updates the T-Pod firmware, greatly increases the speed of transfer of recorded programmes from T-Pod to tablet, and adds pause and rewind functions to the one-touch recording function. In addition, the new version introduces automatic location-based acquisition of program information in preparation for rollout of TTV nationally.

Leonard M Fertig, CEO of Motive, commented, "Our Barcelona and Casablanca based engineering teams are working hard to fulfill an aggressive product roadmap that improves and extends Motive's signature product. We anticipate releasing new features for the US and UK every few weeks and simultaneously extending TabletTV to additional countries during 2015. Interest among consumers and broadcasters is high and is expected to grow as we introduce new features."
