Features & Capabilities

SpectrumU is a powerful Android app designed to enhance your Spectrum TV experience while on campus. It transforms your mobile device into a TV, enabling you to stream live news, sports, local channels, and access thousands of On Demand shows and movies. Users can browse channels while watching, discover exclusive Spectrum Originals, and personalize their viewing experience by setting favorite channels and building a watchlist.

The app supports comprehensive search options allowing you to find programs by title, network, actor, or sports team. All your selected content is saved in "My Library" for easy access. To use SpectrumU, you need to be connected to your college or university's WiFi network, as the service is available only at participating institutions.
