SiriusXM Launches New Mobile App, Player

SiriusXM Thursday announced the launch of its next generation of streaming services with an updated app that allows subscribers to stay connected to their favorite SiriusXM programming on the go beyond the car.

The new SiriusXM app has been rebuilt from the ground up and offers subscribers an enhanced and personalized user experience via iPhone, Android smartphones, and other connected devices, as well as online at siriusxm.com.

The streaming service immerses subscribers in the world of SiriusXM with a refreshed look that puts them in control of their listening experience, a new Search feature making  it easier than ever for listeners to get to the content they want On Demand, improved navigation that streamlines how listeners get to their customized channels, enhanced Social features, better personalized recommendations of channels, shows and content available to each listener, and improved speed and overall performance in low-bandwidth areas.  SiriusXM has also redesigned its app and online media player with a flexible architecture for new features and capabilities to be easily added through future updates.

"It's now easier and better than ever to listen to our curated and exclusive content on just about any mobile device on the go and online at home or at work.  We are thrilled by how enthusiastically our subscribers have embraced the new features that give them more control of when and where they listen to the content they love," said Enrique Rodriguez, Executive Vice President Operations, Products and Connected Vehicles Services, SiriusXM. "This reengineering and redesign inspires subscribers to search and discover even more of the content they enjoy, and allows a deeper engagement with their favorite SiriusXM shows and hosts on social media, all right in the app."

SiriusXM will also give listeners customized recommendations created from the channels, shows, and On Demand content they are listening to so they can get even more of the music, sports, comedy, news, talk and entertainment shows they love and discover even more content to enjoy on SiriusXM.
