Brighthouse has just announced a new TV app for Android. The app is compatible with all Android 4.0 and up devices and is a must have for tablets. You can stream live TV and premium channels right from the comfort of your Android device. If you live in the Florida area, you can enjoy live streaming of local channels as well. Unfortunately, in this first release the app only works while you’re at home and on a Wi-Fi connection. Hopefully in the future the ability to stream content from anywhere will be added. Check out the full press release below for more information. You can download the app now from the Google Play Store.
