GOtv realigns channels to ease subscribers’ navigation

GOtv has renumbered its channels in an effort to keep up with all the twists and turns of subscribers’ favourite programmes and movies.

According to Rinaldi Jamugisa, the MutliChoice Uganda publicist, this is aimed at making it as easy as possible for subscribers to find what they are looking for and to discover fresh content.

“As we have added more content to the GOtv platform over the years and the channel grid has grown and evolved, we have reached a point where some blocks are full, and some channels hide in hard-to-find places. We have also found that some of our language-specific channels, like GOtv’s Portuguese channels, are now mixed in with English-medium channels, making it tricky for our valued Portuguese customers to find what they’re looking for,” he said.  

“So, to make the viewing experience as lovable as possible for GOtv viewers, we have adapted how channels are numbered so that viewers can get to these channels without too much scrolling.”

Starting April 19, GOtv’s flagship channels, popular local channels, movies, and telenovelas will have their own clearly marked blocks. For instance, all Ugandan-produced content will range from channels 301 to 329 sports will be between channels 360 to 368.

On the other hand, telenovelas have been arranged to start from channels 330 to 334  whereas children’s channels range from 380 to 390.
