Airtel TV app

Airtel Nigeria isn’t the first telco to launch a TV or music streaming app. In 2019, 9mobile introduced SuperTV app which allows customers to watch movies and shows in Nigeria. Also, MTN Nigeria launched MusicTime! — its music streaming platform — that allows users to enjoy local and international music.

AirtelTV app, which is subscription-free, promises to be a “one-stop platform” for music videos, live stations, and sports news.

The Airtel TV app is accessible to both iOS and Android users on the Airtel network as an Airtel number is required on signing up. Additionally, only registered users can have unlimited access to the app’s content library.

Airtel has partnered with Trace Africa, Discover Digital, and other content providers to bring content to the platform.

Users on AirtelTV can watch movies — Nollywood and Bollywood — but can’t download content from the platform. And with a stable Internet connection, users can choose to stream in low, high, auto, or medium quality.

On the app users can watch movies in languages which include Hausa, Swahili, Hindi, Yoruba, Igbo, and Shona; however, the movies in these languages are old.

How to Download Airtel TV

For iOS users, search Airtel-TV on iTunes

For Android users, search Airtel TV on Google Play Store

Now that Telecom providers are diving into digital space, it is time to consider the cost of data in streaming on these platforms. The cost of Internet subscription is still high in Nigeria as compared to some other African countries.

We need cheap data, cheap subscription in Nigeria.

  1. If they’ll volunteer to be give me atleast 200MB daily, I’ll download the app and be using It frequently; otherwise, forget it.

  2. They should all just stop with these nonsense. If i had unlimited data, they think i don’t have various means to watch live tv with even better channels. They expect me to stream live tv with my hard earned data. 1gig would barely last 20 minutes. That was how 9nonsense abi 9mobile came with their super tv scam.

  3. Ibom Music is the Best music promotion and download hub. Here you can get all Your latest Music free download, music lyrics, resources such as the Recent album launch and lots more.
