SivooTV Now Available on KaiOS for the US and Nigeria

KaiOS Technologies, the leading operating system for smart feature phones, and SIVOO, Inc., a global network of multicultural on-demand entertainment programming, have announced that SivooTV will now be available on KaiOS, providing video entertainment content to over 150 million KaiOS-enabled smart feature phones worldwide.

Launching in the US and Nigeria in the first phase, the SivooTV app will then be rolled out globally via KaiStore. It offers a wide range of entertainment programming from third-party content providers. SIVOO is responsible for video content licensing, video encoding and transcoding as well as video streaming. News, Sports, Music, Lifestyle, and Kids’ video programming are some of the core content verticals with selected titles offered in 15 high-demand languages, including English, French, Spanish, Hindi, and Arabic. This is particularly essential to KaiOS users with limited literacy. There will be premiere content packages available for users to choose from on SivooTV.

“SIVOO is focused on the same objective as we are: to bring quality content and information to a wider audience segment, including those impacted by the digital divide globally. Here in KaiOS, we see a rising trend in video app usage on our platform, with a growing demand for streaming content in general and a higher mobile internet penetration. Our partnership comes in the right moment, addressing our users’ needs and desires with access to live video streams — in a wide range of languages and on affordable devices.”

Mathieu Boyer, Senior Director, Ecosystem & Partnerships, KaiOS Technologies

“KaiOS represents one of the fastest-growing mobile platforms in the world with presence in more than 150 countries. SIVOO is thrilled to be working with KaiOS to serve under-represented populations in emerging markets, allowing all KaiOS users to benefit from the affordable entertainment at their fingertips via the SivooTV network. The programming will be available in multiple local and high demand languages, making SivooTV a more attractive venue for viewers and advertisers alike.”
