If your kids love Treehouse, YTV and TELETOON channels, Corus has announced today iOS and Android apps will be launching in Spring of 2015.
These TV Everywhere apps will offer subscribers the ability to live stream and download shows to watch, including the likes of Dora and Friends, Mike the Knight, SpongeBob Square Pants and Adventure Time.
The first app to launch will be the preschool Treehouse app in spring 2015 as part of the first phase, followed by YTV and TELETOON apps coming after, with the latter also to be offered in French.
“As part of Corus’ expanding digital content strategy, these apps will offer viewers an opportunity to sample shows and engage with new content on their portable devices,” said Colin Bohm, Vice President, Television, Head of Corus Kids. “These apps will give our Corus Kids subscribers the flexibility to enjoy some of their favourite shows whether they’re at home or on the go.”
The apps will include features such as parental controls and other interactive environments to keep your kids busy. Ottawa-based startup You.i TV has been commissioned to build the apps, powered by their You.i Engine software.
