With the soccer world cup in full swing, having an application like FIFA+ is a great advantage. The reason is simple: it allows you to follow the games, read statistics, see analysis and it is a huge library of historical content about soccer.
However, this application had a small problem: until now, it was only available on mobile devices and in its web version. Google and Hisense decided to take it further, because FIFA+ is now available on Android TV and Google TV , with an added surprise.
Thousands of hours of exclusive soccer content and some of the most extensive match coverage on the planet
In case you didn’t know, Hisense is one of the main sponsors of the Qatar 2022 World Cup . This is a position that brings many advantages, such as these three that are included in the sponsorship agreement: first, that VIVAA OS (the OS used by Hisense Smart TVs) has access to premium sports content about the tournament; second, it makes Hisense a main partner of the exclusive FIFA program that is carried out daily from the Fan Festival of the Cup; third, they receive permission to bring the FIFA+ app to their Smart TVs.
Taking advantage of this last right, Hisense decided to pick up the phone and call Google with an offer they couldn’t refuse: an exclusive agreement between VIDAA OS and Google to bring FIFA+ to devices running Android TV or Google TV. What does this mean? Compatibility with the new Chromecast, with Nvidia Shield, as well as different Smart TVs, TV Sticks and TV Boxes that use the Google operating system.
This version of FIFA+ will have the same features as the version for Android and browsers, with the addition of exclusive Hisense content. What things are we talking about? From this:
- Live coverage of all the matches of the Qatar 2022 Soccer World Cup .
- Live coverage of more than 40,000 soccer matches a year .
- Access to the official program of Qatar 2022, directly from the FIFA Fan Festival.
- Complete and on-demand broadcasts of thousands of matches a year.
- Analysis, statistics and summaries of the main tournaments on the planet.
- Dozens of original documentaries on the history of soccer.
- Interactive games and fantasy leagues for you to play with your friends.
How to download FIFA+ on Android TV or Google TV?
FIFA+, the official FIFA app, is now available to download from the Google Play Store worldwide . It’s a free app, so you don’t have to worry about paying subscriptions or anything like that.
According to Google, this alliance is part of its efforts to bring users the content they love . Besides, it is a way of expanding the options to follow the World Cup in Qatar 2022. And, yes, it may be a little late for the event, but better than never happening.
In addition, the agreement will not be only for this tournament, but will continue in force, although Google and FIFA are already the ones who manage it. In other words, now is that there will be FIFA + for a while on Android TV and Google TV .
