Hello all; I just purchased a surface 2 computer and cannot find an APP to watch my favorite channels on (like I had on my Ipad).  Is there something I can do or download?  Thanks for any help!!

Unfortunately there is no FiOS Mobile app (like for Android or IOS).  The only alternative is to watch the video available at MyVerizon, which is limited, using a browser.  Also, some content providers also have their own sites (like ESPN, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, etc.) that offer live streaming.  The sign in for these use your Verizon account information in most cases.  Others provide on-demand like streaming.  

The last time I asked if a Windows 8 app was planned I was told "yes" but that was a year ago.  I'll ask the question again.

UPDATE:

I just heard back from the app dev team lead when I asked about a Windows 8 app:  "No current plans, but it’s on our radar."
