Is your once “cutting-edge Smart TV” now unable to run the newer generation of apps for streaming services?
The good news is, you don’t have to replace your television altogether to enjoy the latest streaming services and features. A relatively inexpensive streaming device can breathe new life into your old Smart TV, giving you access to a world of entertainment without breaking the bank.
Advantages of a streaming device
One of the biggest advantages of using a streaming device with your old Smart TV is access to a wide range of streaming services. Whether you’re adopting the new SwyftTV live streaming service, or simply want to access Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, or Disney+, a streaming device can bring all of these platforms and more right to your screen. This means you can enjoy your favorite shows and movies in stunning high definition, even on an older TV.
If you are inclined to go this route, we recommend Roku streaming devices, primarily because the SwyftTV app is optimized for the Roku platform. However, Roku also provides several beneficial features:
- Ease of Use: Roku devices are simple to set up and extremely easy for users to navigate and find content quickly. Plus, the remote has voice control, making it even easier to find content.
- Content Variety: Roku provides access to a wide range of streaming services, including popular ones like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, and more, allowing users to enjoy a diverse selection of content.
- Wide availability of FREE Content: The Roku platform offers several channels of free content directly from the home screen. Plus, there are hundreds of apps for sports, news, international, and kids, including broadcast channels like ABC, CBS, and NBC.
- Cross-Platform Search: Roku offers a universal search feature that allows users to search for content across multiple streaming services, saving time and effort.
Our SwyftTV live streaming service also works well on Amazon Fire TV or Fire Stick. Setting up either the Roku or Fire Stick on any Smart TV is usually a straightforward process. Simply connect the device to your TV via HDMI, connect it to your Wi-Fi network, and you’re ready to start streaming! The first thing you’ll want to do is search “SwyftTV” in your streaming platform and install our app. Watch this short video to learn how to install and configure SwyftTV on your device.
