iPad Netflix Customers get ready for iPhone and iPod Application as well

April 7th, 2010

Vice President Netflix Steve Swasey confirmed that company has planned to bring Netflix in the list of iPhone 3G applications; it’ll server as iPod touch app as well. The best apps available for Apple’s new iPad at launch was a Netflix application that enables Netflix subscribers to view movies and television shows on the device. The iPhone version would enable users to stream video to the device over 3G data service rather than only via Wi-Fi. No fix date has been announced yet.

Once launched for iPhone this app is hoped to be rated as one of the top iPhone applications as well. If the application would follow Netflix’s pattern for offering streaming to other devices and services, users will not have to pay separately to stream Netflix content to their iPhones.

So far, Netflix has bundled all streaming into its existing subscription plans, rather than binding them to a particular device or platform. There are rumors that whether this would be iphone 3gs application or it will also support simple iPhone, I think it’ll work for 3GS compatible, as almost all of the new applications for iPhone follow the latest technology. Given that no date and capabilities have been announced, some industry watchers speculate a Netflix application may be on tap for Apple’s April 8 press event to preview iPhone OS 4.Customer who subscribe to Netflix and are eligible for streaming service can tap into it from any Netflix-capable device, whether that be a TiVo set-top box, a PC, and iPad, or something else.
