Vizio’s free streaming service WatchFree Plus gets a new look and more channels - The Verge

Plus, its live programming guide now offers hundreds of free channels across a surprisingly comprehensive number of genres — everything from comedy and sports to a lengthy list of entertainment channels.

In addition, Vizio’s WatchFree Plus program guide now includes a “featured” category for seasonal content, themed collections, so-called “pop-up” channels (or hubs for limited-time programming) as well as Vizio-exclusive, custom-curated channels (these include one called Fork & Flight for food content and Vizio Investigations, its crime channel).

According to Vizio, its free and ad-supported streaming service is one of the top content sources on its SmartCast TVs.
