Sling TV has released their new User Interface on Roku players. The new UI will roll out starting today but it may take a day or two before your Roku gets the new UI. Here is what you should expect to find:
My TV – My TV is the new home screen. From this view, Sling TV subscribers can select your favorite networks to populate “My Channels” in the top ribbon for one-click access to the channels you watch most, You’ll also be able to pick up a show right where you left off with the “Continue Watching” ribbon, and within the “Favorites” ribbon, you can add your most-watched shows, series and movies.
On Now – The On Now view is curated based on what’s currently airing and is organized by categories like sports, lifestyle and action, for easy navigation. This means you can navigate live content by genre instead of scrolling channel by channel. Making this a much more Netflix like experience to live TV.
Sports (coming soon) – Whether you want to watch baseball, basketball, lacrosse, football, hockey, soccer or cricket, you will be able to view programs by sport, schedule or what’s on now. No date has been announced for when Sports will be added to Roku players.
Currently, the new UI is live on Apple TV and will be rolling out to the rest of our Sling TV-supported devices throughout the year.
