Hulu + Live TV Expands 14-Day Grid Guide to Fire TV, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and Smart TVs

In late-August, Hulu rolled out their updated Grid Guide to Apple TV and Roku, and now it’s expanding to a bunch more devices.

Hulu has confirmed to The Streamable that the new live guide, which now allows you to see 14-days of shows (up from 48 hours), is in the process of rolling out to Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and select LG, Samsung, and Android TVs, and VIZIO SmartCast TVs. Users will begin seeing the change roll-out over the course of the day.

New Grid Guide Features

  • Access a full two-week grid guide that lets viewers see what’s ahead, record upcoming shows, movies, and games in advance, and channel surf to their heart’s content.
  • Add channels to “My Channels” that allows for access to their favorite channels and programs directly from Home and the Live Guide.
  • Easily find recommended TV shows and movies that are airing on live TV right now from Home.
  • Browse live content collections to quickly jump to sports, news, movies, and kids content that’s live right now and coming up in the future.

The feature was originally announced by Hulu at CES in January, and began rolling out on Hulu.com last month. Besides the 2-week look ahead, down the left side you will quickly be able to switch between All Channels, Favorites, Recents, and categories like Sports. The new guide adds an quick view panel, easier filtering, startover icons, and an indicator if a game in blacked out in your city directly from the guide.
