Easy exploration
Create an interactive media browser to make media searches productive and engaging. Enable users to browse while watching or listening. With a large screen layout, display a collection of media titles side by side with a playing video or audio file to give users a preview or quick listen of selection after selection.
Differentiated experiences
Distinctive features and capabilities not possible on small screen devices.
Tabletop
Let users lean back and enjoy their favorite content with tabletop posture on foldables. Place playback media above the fold, controls and supplementary content below, for a hands-free viewing or listening experience.
Picture-in-picture
Bring the small screen to the big screen so users can watch and work, learn and do at the same time.
Multi-window
Let users multitask with two apps side by side to browse a collection of movies while checking out casts and characters, or listen to music while searching for covers or the latest music news and reviews.
