Bharti Airtel has not only revamped its prepaid and postpaid portfolio to make its plans attractive, but the Sunil Bharti Mittal led telco has also directed its focus on content. Whether it is video-on-demand, over the top content, music or textual content, Airtel has grown in leaps and bounds in the last few years. One of the most popular applications in the Bharti Airtel portfolio is Airtel TV which avails live TV to the users. However, the Airtel TV service was not available for web-users, but it seems that Airtel might be looking to change that. It has come to our knowledge that Airtel will soon be launching the Airtel TV service on the web as it has been seen testing it for users right now. The good thing is Airtel even providing Live TV service to the customers on the web version.

Airtel TV Content Now Easily Accessible on Laptop and Other Web Devices
We think that this new move by Airtel has been made to take on the likes of JioCinema and other competing OTT apps. It is worth noting that just like Airtel subscribers get access to Airtel TV’s wide range of movies, TV shows and documentaries, similarly, Reliance Jio also has a JioCinema app in its portfolio where subscribers can access this content for free. However, what’s unique about the new service by Airtel is that it will be accessible through the web and not only just smartphone apps. Previously, this wasn’t possible, and hence users were limited to streaming the content on Airtel TV app only on small screens. Perhaps, the only way to stream this content on bigger screens was through Chromecast, but thankfully the subscribers of Airtel won’t have to go through this ordeal to watch the content from Airtel TV on a bigger screen. The web version can be accessed at https://www.airtelxstream.in/.
