How to Access DIRECTV Apps

For many years, DIRECTV customers have enjoyed the ability to access apps right on their TV screens. These apps have made it quick and easy to view program guides, keep up with sports scores and stay on top of local weather reports. In addition to their useful TV apps, DIRECTV now provides apps for many mobile devices, which enables their subscribers to use smartphones and tablets to control their televisions and stream live shows over the Internet. Users can even access the DIRECTV app from their Apple Watches. Take full advantage of all your TV has to offer by accessing DIRECTV apps on almost any modern internet-enabled device. If you have a USB flash, you could download your movie from the computer to it, then to the TV. However, it needs to be a smart TV or a standard TV with a USB hub. Open the DIRECTV app on your Apple Watch. As long as your watch is connected to the same network as your DIRECTV, you can browse for TV shows, use your watch as a remote control, and control your DVR. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/9\/90\/Access-DIRECTV-Apps-Step-19.jpg\/v4-460px-Access-DIRECTV-Apps-Step-19.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/9\/90\/Access-DIRECTV-Apps-Step-19.jpg\/aid1365790-v4-728px-Access-DIRECTV-Apps-Step-19.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"546","licensing":"
