You can watch on laptops, smartphones, tablets and Apple TV 4th Generation, with availability on Android TV later this year.

With Alt TV, you get great TV at a great price – all the major networks, news and sports, live and on-demand on any screen you want, at home, at work or on the go,” said Rizwan Jamal, President of Bell Residential and Small Business Services. “Bell changed the television game with Fibe, and today we’re proud to take Canadian TV further with the convenient and affordable Alt TV.”
