AT&T launches enhanced U-verse App for iPad

AT&T announced today that its AT&T U-verse for iPad App, which allows users to connect their iPad to their TV, is available on the App Store. App users can link their iPad to their choice of any U-verse TV receiver and access several new features such as: extra content and information about the TV show they are watching, a full-featured, intuitive U-verse remote control, advanced search functionality, recommendations and the ability to share information about what they're are watching with friends on Facebook. Using the U-verse IP platform and in-home U-verse Wi-Fi network, customers can link the app to any U-verse TV receiver in their home. Using a simple one-time set up process for each U-verse receiver, customers just tune to channel 9301 and go through intuitive steps to name their U-verse receivers using a default name like 'living room' or 'bedroom,' or create a personalized name, to enable the functionality and features.
