Voddler launches iPad-app – watch blockbusters on your tablet!

Video-on-demand service Voddler just released a native iPad-app, so that film viewers can watch films for free from the Voddler catalog on their iPad. Voddler already has an iPhone-app out. The new app makes full use of the iPad’s larger screen, both for navigation and film viewing.

 

Voddler already has both iPhone- and Android-apps out. For its brand new iPad-app, Voddler has adapted the user interface to take full advantage of the larger screen. The films have also been optimized for viewing on the larger surface.

 

-          We continue to develop so that you can see movies whenever and wherever you want, regardless of which screen you happen to have nearby. At the same time, we keep our focus on seamless transitions between the screens. If you, for instance, start watching a film on your mobile on the way home, you can then pick up exactly where you left off when you get to your computer-connected TV at home, or on your iPad-table if the home-TV was already occupied, says Anders Sjöman, head of communication at Voddler.

 

You find the Voddler iPad-app by searching for “Voddler” in your Ipad eller in iTunes on your computer. The app does not require any subscription, and movies are shown over both mobile networks and WiFi.

 

To cover the additional costs of film storage and streaming that the iPad entails, given its larger screen size and resolution compared to the iPhone, the iPad-app has a one-time purchase fee. At launch, the pay app costs 49 SEK (Sweden), 5.49 EUR (Finland), 42 DKK (Denmark) and 49 NOK (Norway).

 

Voddler’s previous iPhone-app remains free to download.

 

The available titles in the iPad-app come from Voddler’s growing catalog of over 4 500 titles. At launch, 200 titles are available, and Voddler will be activating more and more for iPad-viewing on a regular basis.
