TL;DR

Search the show or movie name in TVGO's live guide to see which channel is airing it now or later today, then jump to that channel from the same app, since TVGO is also a Wi-Fi TV remote.

“What channel is this show on?” It's the question that ruins the first ten minutes of every movie night. Flipping through channels one by one is slow, and searching the web often turns up outdated listings. TVGO, for iPhone and Android, answers it in seconds: a live TV guide shows you exactly what's airing right now, and because TVGO is also a Wi-Fi universal remote, you can jump straight to the channel from the same screen.

Check the Live Guide for What's On Right Now

Open TVGO and the live guide lays out your channels with what's currently airing on each one. Instead of channel surfing, you scan one screen. That game, that movie everyone's texting about, that show you half-remember: if it's on right now, it's in the guide. Because the guide lists every channel on one screen, you can compare what is on side by side instead of landing on each channel halfway through a scene.

Search by Show or Movie Name

Know what you want but not where it lives? Type the title into TVGO's search. TVGO looks across the guide and tells you which channel is airing it and when. No more guessing whether the movie is on channel 32 or 47. Search the name, get the channel, done. Search also works for titles that are not on yet, so you can find out which night a show airs this week before you plan your evening.

See What's Airing Later Today

The guide doesn't stop at right now. Scroll ahead to see the rest of today's schedule across your channels. If the show you're looking for starts in two hours, TVGO tells you the channel and the time, and you can save it with a reminder timeline so the app nudges you before it starts. That turns “i'll try to remember” into an actual plan.

Jump Straight to the Channel

Here's the step other guide apps can't do. Once TVGO shows you where something is airing, you don't have to pick up a physical remote and punch in numbers. TVGO connects to your smart TV, streaming box, or cable box over your home Wi-Fi network, so the app that found the channel can take you there. Found it, tapped it, watching it: that's the whole workflow.
