An Electronic Program Guide, or EPG, is a grid-style guide that shows what's scheduled and helps you browse content in a familiar, TV-like layout, where available.
How an EPG Works
The guide organizes content into a timeline view, making it easy to see what's on and plan ahead, similar to a traditional TV guide.
Why It's Useful
- Faster browsing compared to searching manually
- A familiar layout for anyone used to traditional TV
- Easier planning for upcoming viewing
EPG availability can vary by app and device. See our Devices page for details on supported platforms.
