The new app offers 360 video content.
Apple has announced the addition of Littlstar to its app lineup. The service features a growing collection of 360-degree videos from several studios and brands.
"Littlstar's app for Apple TV brings an immersive 360 video experience to the television screen," commented Tony Mugavero, founder and Chief Product Officer of Littlstar. "We wanted to give audiences the ability to consume this content from their living rooms and in a social environment. With Littlstar's app, users can now view 360 videos on their televisions, and experience immersive video the same way they would a traditional TV program."
Littlstar offers 360-degree videos from companies like Showtime, Disney, Discovery, PBS, Mountain Dew, National Geographic and Red Bull, providing a variety of content categories including travel, sports, and music. Users can control the angle of each video by using the trackpad on the newest Siri remote, allowing them to rotate their view as they wish to create a fully immersive experience. The Littlstar app is now available for free from the Apple TV app store. Users can also watch 360 clips on their computers via Littlstar.com.
