Shared by BoxCast Team • October 23, 2025

This week our OTT Apps team was hard at work releasing new improvements:

New Features

  • The platform will now automatically create OTT Categories for all BoxCast Streaming Channels
  • Livestreams scheduled for far in the future will no longer clutter up rows other than Live and Upcoming

Bugs

  • Fixed a bug where Android video player could not be exited by hitting the X button
  • Fixed a bug where hitting the back button on mobile would close the app
  • Fixed a bug where pages with many rows would have the banner image appearing at the bottom of the page
  • Fixed a bug where the Watch button was sometimes leading viewers to the wrong video
  • Improved tvOS and Roku viewer sign-in for registration-gated content to bring users back to the content they were trying to watch (getting this fix will require rebuilding your smart TV app)

Have a great week!
