What is TiVo Smartbar®?

Updated 3 months ago.

The TiVo Smartbar® predicts shows that you’ll want to watch based on what you usually watch at a particular time of day. SmartBar® earns the name "smart" by learning your viewing habits. For example, if you normally watch yesterday's late-night talk show the next morning, you’ll see it in the SmartBar® when you wake up. If the kids watch shows while dinner’s cooking, their shows will be waiting in the SmartBar at dinner time each day.

To use the SmartBar®:

  1. Scroll left and right through the SmartBar® using the arrow buttons on your remote control.
  2. Press OK when you find a show you want to watch.
  3. From the Episode or Movie screen, you can watch the show, view the cast, see other episodes, get recommendations for other shows, and modify your OnePass® options.
