Verizon Android devices get FiOS Mobile

General

Verizon couch potatoes throw your hands up! If you have a DROID or Eris on Verizon, and you’re a FiOS customer, you can get FiOS Mobile on your phone now. You can check TV listings, adjust parental controls, set your DVR and even check out Videos On Demand with the new mobile application. Verizon also included a nifty little storage space indicator to let you know when it’s time to delete those episodes of Jersey Shore that you’ve already seen a dozen times. Let us know how it works out for you, will you?

    Use this app now on my Storm 2 and it’s great. The UI is awesome and I really get a lot of functionality out of it.

    Welcome to the party, Android,

  • jpres

  • Chris

  • Michael Scott

    If my droid had boobies I would never leave home.

    the droid is weak. it’s a lame copy of the iPhone.

      I think my sentiment toward your comment can best be described by (rhetorically) asking “Why?”

      iPhone fanboys aside …

      The Channel browser works better than the guide on the DVR. It’s so smooth.

      Managing the DVR is also extremely convenient and it works well for the 4 shows I’ve scheduled and deleted.

    when i can start watch TV/fios on my DROID…. ill be impress, until then this App is just a window dressing of what could be….

    I have an Eris and can’t find this app on the marketplace (searched for “verizon” and “fios”). Is it truly available for Eris or not?

  • Biggles

    Yesterday called. They want their news back.

  • TedP

    so where do you get the app?????
    a little bit of info like that would be helpful.

  • Daniel

    I’ve heard from several sources, including the set top directions, that this was currently avilable exclusively on Verizon phones. I’ve been using the Fios Mobile app on my T-Mobile G1 since Sunday. Any clue as to why? Glitch? Misswording from Verizon?

  • 3d

    NICE. How’d I miss this one?! Thanks for the heads up. The app is available in the Android marketplace. Just type in Fios and search.

  • Jon

    I’m searching for it (on the Eris) and it says There are no matches in the Android Market for the search: fios

    That’s weak. I’ve also searched for FiOS, verizon, Verizon and I’m out of ideas.

  • TomTpm

    well – if you have a Verizon smartphone and FiOS; they own you with the massive anti-consumer ETFs…

    Would be nice if DirecTV got in on this goodness. Their mobile website leaves a lot to be desired and for some reason, it comes in super tiny on the Droid’s browser.

  • Mike

    This is not available on my wifes eris.
