Personalized UI & Business Rules

When opening B-Box services users get several types of personalized suggestions instantly.

They have quick access to their favorite shows on linear TV as well as recommended content for discovery on airing, catchup and on demand content. White lists of content are updated on a weekly basis to make the most of business constraints with content editors and popular trends.

Moodboard

Users can browse across free to air and on-demand content by combining mood selections with their remote control on their set-top Box.

This features serves as an alternative for the search, which is not user-friendly when performed with standard remote controls.
