Surely, I’m not the only person tired of getting spotty show recommendations. Fortunately, DISH Network’s DISH Anywhere app provides a healthy remedy. Now customers can use their mobile DISH Anywhere app to receive personalized recommendations based on their own viewing history. Individual profiles help personalize the experience even more.
According to a DISH Network blog announcement, “The profiles allow each viewer to set up their own username and avatar in the mobile app. This means each viewer will receive personalized programming recommendations based on their specific viewing habits, not the household’s favorites.â€
To set up individual profiles, users log-in to their mobile DISH Anywhere app. They then navigate to settings and select “Manage Profiles.†Here, they can then choose their personal avatar and username, which will appear as their profile. When creating a profile, users may choose between an admin (parents, I’m looking at you) and a viewer. Admins have the ability to view locked content by entering the parental control passcode.
Through individual profiles, customers can also customize separate Watchlists, Favorites, and sports team settings and see their own personal viewing history. No more “Naked and Afraid†recommendations for me! Additionally, customers can now pay your DISH bill in-app through the DISH Anywhere settings—it’s easy and convenient!
The new DISH Anywhere app update is available across iOS and Android smart phones and iOS, Android and Kindle Fire tablets. To stay up to date on DISH Anywhere, follow @DISHNews.
