In case you missed it, TRAI had announced a TV Channel Selector App back in 2020 with the intention to aid users to view and modify their TV subscription. The authority had mentioned at the time that the app would enable users to check their subscription and view the packs and bouquets offered by their service provider.

To add to this, the Channel selector app would also allow the users to “check the real-time” status of their subscription request. TRAI had mentioned that the app would fetch the subscriber data from the service provider via an application programming interface (API) shared by the provider with the regulatory authority

What Does the Service Have to Offer

Today, the service launched has been put forth with the intention to provide users access to the service of the TV Channel Selector App, even if they do not own a smartphone. The portal will offer all the existing features of the application, the release claimed.

Key features include the ability for subscribers to be able to check their own subscription, view all channels and bouquets that are provided by the DTH/Cable service provider, choose only the channels of interests and remove certain unnecessary or unwanted channels and get optimised solutions, for lower prices.
