A recent update to the Fan TV [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-sports) app enables users to instantaneously discover which online media platforms are streaming their desired content. Whether the program is being hosted on a free website or a subscription-based one, the Fan TV iPhone app will save viewers from endlessly scrolling through databases. Once the desired show or film has been found, it can be saved for later viewing; or can even be put on a 'WatchList,' that sends a notification if the content becomes available on a different website. The Fan TV app is exclusive to iOS, but the company plans to release a related mobile site that will be compatible with other devices. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 87% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **TV Show-tracking Apps:** The rise of TV show-tracking apps presents a valuable opportunity for media companies to innovate new ways of tracking viewer habits and preferences - **Online Media Platform Integration:** The integration of multiple online media platforms presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for companies seeking to create all-in-one entertainment experiences for customers - **Customized Viewing Experiences:** The ability to create personalized watch lists and receive notifications represents a trend towards customized viewing experiences that companies can capitalize on ### Who This Affects Most - **Media & Entertainment:** The streaming service industry can utilize TV show-tracking apps to optimize customer experience and engagement - **Mobile App Development:** TV show-tracking apps present new opportunities for developers to improve user interface and expand cross-device compatibility - **Data Analytics:** The information gained from TV show-tracking apps can be used to provide insights into customer behaviour and preferences, making it a valuable tool for data analytics companies ## Related on Trend Hunter - [TV-Specific Pop Informants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tv-show-aficionados.md) - [Entertainment Tracker Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flickd.md) - [Media Release Monitoring Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upcoming-app.md) - [Personalized TV Recommendation Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tv-recommendation-app.md) - [Movie Streaming Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moviepad.md) - [Streaming Locator Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/itsavailablein.md) - [Movie List Organizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/movie-mate-share.md) - [Food Show Finders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tvfoodmaps.md) - [Personalized Film Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/movie-me.md)
