The discovery+ app is now available to VIZIO SmartCast TV users. With the app’s launch, VIZIO will include a dedicated carousel, “Discover More on discovery+,” on the home screen. Some of discovery+’s most popular content will be featured on the carousel to show VIZIO SmartCast TV users what the streaming service has to offer.
A collection of holiday content is available to stream at launch. Some of the titles include “Fruitcake Fraud” and “The Pioneer Woman’s Hometown: Holiday Themes.” Several new series are ready to stream as well. You can enjoy shows like “Discovering David Dorbik,” “Drew’s Dream Car with Drew Scott and Ant Anstead,” and “My Dream Kitchen with Giada de Laurentiis and Carla Hall.” “Hometown: Ben’s Workshop” returns for another season, too.
