Navigating TDS TV +
Your TDS TV+ experience begins at the Home Screen.

to instantly get to the Home Screen from any other TDS
TV+ location.

Navigation Bar

Located in the middle of your Home Screen, the
Navigation Bar contains menu items which take you
to commonly used TDS TV+ screens. Use the navigation
ring on your remote control to move (LEFT, RIGHT) between
menu items. Press the OK button to select a menu option:
customize settings like Parental Controls, OnePass settings, Favorite Channels, and User Preferences.
SETTINGS:
WATCH TV: go directly to the live TV channel playing in the background of the Home Screen.
MY SHOWS: lists your saved video content, so they're ready to access no matter if they're TV recordings, on-demand
shows, or streaming from apps like Netflix.
• Newly added or recorded programming appears at the top of the list, unless you choose to sort alphabetically
(by going to Settings>User Preferences).
• OnePass search results (see page 7), bookmarked programs, and single recordings are also saved in My Shows.
WHAT TO WATCH: browse shows available to stream, watch live, record, or bookmark, and is divided into popular categories.
GUIDE: launches the on-screen program guide, where you can see up to 2 weeks of programming that's scheduled
or up to 72 hours of past programming.
APPS & GAMES: takes you to the apps you've downloaded from the Google Play store. Your TDS TV+ box operates like
a Roku or Amazon Fire Stick, by giving you access to music, games, and more.
ON DEMAND: takes you to the TDS TV+ Video On Demand menu, where you can access a library of hit shows and
movies you can watch any time for free.
SEARCH: find programming by title, actor name,
or keyword — across TV, video on demand, and
popular streaming apps all at once.
SmartBar
The images on your Home Screen form the SmartBar,
which predicts shows you may be interested in
watching, based on your viewing habits. Navigate
to an image of show you're interested in, then
press the OK button to select and watch. Selecting
recommended shows from the Home Screen is simple
and convenient. You can even tune into a live program
when you select it from the SmartBar.
