Jio is a name that is familiar to almost every single Indian by now. It was on 5th September, 2016 that this telecom giant took a big step by distributing free 4G-LTE SIM cards. Since that day, Jio has its family growing (around 5.6 million users as per latest reports). With this telecom service, came yet another popular application-based service – JioTV. This app is Jio’s one of the coolest offerings and you will also fall in love with it as you read along. It is an application designed for smartphones and tablets that lets users stream TV on their devices. Everything, from shows, daily soaps, news, sports, cartoons and even movies can be streamed for free using this app. You can watch shows live or even watch their re-telecasts and highlights using JioTV directly on your smartphones/tablets. This app is entirely free to use and can be downloaded using the link provided at the bottom (of this page).

Jio TV APP – Transform your Smartphones and Tablets into TV
JioTV has a decent looking interface and is compatible on every device with a Jio-based internet connection. Unlike other apps, this one does not contain ads and thus, it runs really well. JioTV is also free from software bloats (or bloatwares) that cause devices to slow down. You will not experience lags over here as its user-interface is very clean and tidy. This app is a one-stop entertainment app that will entertain you for hours. The content over here is of great quality (HD quality) and JioTV caters to audience belonging to every age group. One needs to register on this app using his/her Jio number and once it has been verified, JioTV starts up. It has a schedule-type catalogue that contains featured content and TV channels. You can simply tap on your desired option and start streaming (including live TV, movies and shows).
Features of Jio TV – Enough to Amaze You
Primetime for Content – It is a great place for all the latest news, regional, national and international. JioTV is your best stop to get access to hundreds of news channels from around the world. From election news to results, breaking news to highlights, you will be able to find everything over here.
No Language Barrier – JioTV is available in a number of languages (and its content as well). Language is no barrier when considering this app as you get access to plenty of languages (content) over here. Popular languages over here include – English, Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi, Marathi and plenty of others as well.
Sports Paradise – JioTV is for the sports lover in you as it features almost every single sports channel (for free). You can watch games like cricket, football, hockey, kabaddi and tennis over here. In fact, it even features live sports from an array of different channels.
Live TV – From watching re-telecasts to broadcasts, JioTV also has live-TV option where users can watch live telecast (just like on normal TVs). It is similar to watching normal TV, but the only difference is that this mode is a lot more portable. So, this app gets a +1 for making your television viewing experience portable.
Entertainment & Movies – From Hindi daily soaps to English shows and series, you can watch it all over here. JioTV has over 100 channels that belong to different genres and categories to keep users of all age groups entertained. It has movie channels like Set Max, Zee Cinema HD and HBO as well as Sony, Colors HD along with some cartoon channels as well.
Play, Pause, Resume – JioTV gives the users the liberty to control the flow of shows, movies and content. You can pause the show any time you wish to and will get resumed from that point only. This feature is loved by a lot of people as it is totally unlike what you will find on normal cabled-connections.
JioTV is best meant for those people who want to watch live TV but do not feel like buying subscriptions or packs. We know how irritating it gets when you are traveling or are far away from your televisions. The urge to watch your favourite team play or your favourite news anchor is real. But with this app – your television streaming experience gets portable. JioTV will work just fine as long as you have an active internet connection (doesn’t matter whether it is 4G, 3G or Wi-Fi). You will be able to watch live news and sports easily in HD quality (lower quality for slower connections). Apart from the live news and sports, you can even watch your favourite daily-soaps live over here. There is no latency gap or delay and it runs parallel to their television telecast. I personally recommend you to download Jio TV app using the download link provided.
In case you have missed out on some live show, news, movie or match, don’t worry as this app has everything. You can always watch re-telecasts and highlights over here using the categories menu. In the categories menu, simply choose the highlights option and you will get the option of choosing what do you want to watch. Simply choose your desired content and JioTV will make sure that you get the highlights/re-telecast for the same. And don’t you worry because everything on this app is free from Jio users. The total catch-up time for shows and sports over here is seven days. So, you can watch a recap for the entire week (cycle resets on Mondays). Even better, you can download the episodes on your devices and watch them later. Remember those days when set top boxes needed hard disks? Yeah, neither do I (lol).
One Stop for Amazing Movies
Are you a cinephile? Don’t know what cinephile means? Well, a cinephile is basically a person who loves cinema. People who love watching movies are basically referred to as cinephiles. JioTV is like heaven for the cinephiles out there as it is a portable movie streaming service in your pockets (or backpacks). It has all the popular and trending movies from around the world (Bollywood, Tollywood and Hollywood) in its huge collection. Customers can use this feature to stream or even download these movies. This service works best for Jio SIM card users (i.e. on Jio 4G-LTE), but you can even use it using Wi-Fi. Better the speed, better will be streaming quality for the movies over here. Just like most of the other content over here, the movies too are available in HD resolution. It can also be paired up with Google Chromecast and streamed on a large display TV.

Download for Non-Jio Users
Here are a few ways in which you can use Jio TV on your Non-Jio SIM-card devices
If you have Jio ID and password –
You need to download MyJio app along with JioTV from Play Store or 9Apps. But please make sure that you download an older version of this app.
Open MyJio app and go to ‘manage your account’.
Go to sign-in and using any random person’s number and password, login into the app. Borrow the credentials from any Jio user whom you know.
This process should bypass the process and non-Jio users should be able to use MyJio.
However, the aforementioned process is highly discouraged because –
It is unwise and unethical to share passwords.
It is difficult to find people willing to share their passwords.
Jio can block accounts linked to a particular number in case of fraudulent logging-in attempts.
The best method for this is – using JioPlay TV (Modded MyJio app)
It is a fool proof way of using MyJio on non-Jio devices and doesn’t require any id or password as well. It requires you to download the modded app along with MyJio app. Once you have downloaded the modded app, you can install it using side-loading. The process has already been mentioned above so be sure to go through it once again. The modded app will work just fine as long as you have Android 4.0.4 or above on your device. Download the MyJio app today from the link given below (for free).
