VH1 now available on Windows Phone and Windows 8

VH1 is a popular cable television network based of NYC. It launched in the mid-80’s and was originally meant to showcase music videos, but that, of course, changed as time went on. Now you’ll find all sorts of reality programs, original programming and the occasional music video on VH1. You can now also watch that content on your Windows Phone or Windows 8.1 device thanks to the new VH1 app.

This VH1 app is a Universal Windows app, which means you’ll be getting it on both Windows Phone and Windows 8. The apps will share pricing, features, and more as time goes on.

VH1 for Windows Phone

You’ll need to sign in with your cable/satellite provider to watch full episodes with the app. We signed in with our Verizon FiOS account and were able to stream an episode of Hollywood Exes, our absolute favorite show, with no problems.

It’s a solid app for anyone interesting in the content on VH1 and worth downloading since it’s free. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think.

Thanks for the tip Antonio!
