Yeah Baby! It Has Arrived! TV on Your iPhone Using New iPhone App from Clicker.com (aka the TV Guide for the Web) Is Now Available

It was a month ago that we posted that one of our favorite web sites Clicker.com was was releasing an app for Android and iPhone.

Clicker is a site we've been posting about since day one and is a superb place to find quality television programming available to stream from MANY broadcasters (for free), webcasters (for free) and Netflix (for subscribers). Also, direct links to purchase or rent from iTunes or Amazon are available.

The Android app was available that day and we said the iPhone app would be coming soon.

Well, a month later, the day has arrived and Clicker.com for iPhone is finally here. You can download a copy (free) of the app, officially named Clicker.com, by clicking here and visiting to the App Store.

The one thing to remember is that some programming that can be viewed on your computer might not be accessible on your iPhone. However, it's very easy to limit (if you choose to) to only view iPhone accessible (free and fee-based) content. Additional limits are also possible.

A List of Key Features via the Clicker Blog:

+ Search Clicker’s massive database of online programming

+ Check-in to your favorite TV shows, movies, and Web series

+ Follow your friends on Clicker and see what they’re watching

+ Rate and discuss shows and movies

+ Earn show awards and badges

+ Manage your Clicker Playlist

+ Filter searches by, and play, iPhone-friendly videos

+ Purchase movies and TV shows through iTunes after finding them via Clicker (easier than searching iTunes itself!)

More About Clicker.com in these Posts:

+ Clicker Update (July, 2010)
We discuss a variety of features available on the Clicker web sites (not mobile sites) including Live Streams and music.

+ Focus Your TV Related Search and Access Episode Guides

+ Homepage 2.0 for Clicker, The Superb Guide to Streaming TV (on the Web)

+ Clicker Enhances Its “Search Within” Feature

Disclosure: Clicker’s CEO, Jim Lanzone, and a few other execs used to work with Gary at Ask.com. He has not worked with any of them for over 2.5 years.
