DStv Now: How to stream DStv live on your mobile devices
“Our mission is to deliver value to our customers by making great entertainment more accessible and affordable” were the words of Cecil Sunkwa Mills, General Manager, of MultiChoice Ghana when he announced all DStv subscribers can now watch their favourite DStv channels on their phone on the DStv Now App. DStv Now is a value-added service from MultiChoice Ghana that allows DStv subscribers to stream live TV via the App on your desktop, laptop, smartphone or tablet. Unlike the earlier DStv Mobile service which required subscribers to purchase the handheld Walka device, DStv Now requires a good internet connect and you can view your DStv shows on your chosen device. Mr. Sunkwa Mills explains that MultiChoice is always finding and developing products and services to meet the needs of our customers anytime, anywhere and in the most convenient manner. Whether it’s local telenovelas, the excitement of world class sport or the latest global blockbusters, our investment in leading-edge content and technology systems deliver the shows that people love into their hands through this innovative service DStv Now. With DStv Now, bad weather and power cuts interrupting your viewing experience will be a thing of the past as you watch on your device of choice. The DStv Now App is available for free download at the google play store or App store. With an active DStv subscription you would have to complete the registration in the App and then can link up to four devices to your account at no additional monthly cost.
