Yahoo Video Guide is a new app, designed for the iOS platform, that makes it possible for users to search for movies, TV shows and video shows across a variety of platforms on services all in one place.
This app covers content situated on Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Amazon Instant Video, YouTube and a number of other apps. You can even access the likes of Google Play, Amazon and iTunes to purchase movies and TV shows.
While it's great to have lots of different options for accessing video content, the downside is that you can sometimes spend more time searching for video than actually enjoying the content. The Yahoo Video Guide banishes that treachery by allowing you to perform streamlined searches across services.
This app will appeal to so-called cord cutters who don't have cable services and watch all their video online.
