The free app lets users read bios, watch previews, and vote for their favorite award-nominated films and stars right on their iPhone or AT&T U-verse TV screen. Telecom company AT&T has launched its Film Awards Interactive App on the App Store.
“The Film Awards Interactive App is perfect for fans who want to use their iPhone or U-verse TV to quickly access the latest information about awards, their favorite actors and films,” said G.W. Shaw, AT&T executive director of U-verse marketing.
“This is another innovative and exciting app available from AT&T, and a great example of how we continue to enhance the entertainment experience across screens and devices.”
From iPhone or U-verse TV, the app lets you view a list of films nominated for this season’s film award shows; view movie trailers for nominated films; read biographies; and cast your vote for your favorite nominated films, actors, actresses, and directors and see instant results from other app users.
Soon after an award show airs, the app will also give iPhone users inside access to red carpet photos of their favorite TV celebrities that they can email to friends.
Similarly, Turner has introduced a new app, which will be available on multiple devices. It provides info on advanced schedules, fan commentary, classic film-related widescreen video content, TCM’s movie blog, and photo galleries, with posters, artwork, and publicity stills. It’ll be available for iPhone, Blackberry, and Android mobile devices. (Read: Mobile Support for Turner Classic Movies)
