Syfy (née SciFi) has released a free iPad app in the form of Syfy for iPad with episode guides, news, behind the scenes looks, and a direct connection to the twitter feeds of stars and creators. While this app will tell you what’s showing and give you some snippets of content, what it won’t do is stream full episodes your way:
Syfy brings you the best of the best in this exclusive app for iPad. Watch exciting new videos, view photos and check out episode guides to catch up on the action! See what the stars and creators of Syfy shows are saying on Twitter. Check-in with GetGlue and earn exclusive Syfy stickers. Never miss an episode of your favorite show again. Ever. Use the schedule feature to save and set reminders about show times. Connect with the stars of Syfy series by using Syfy Connect. Get updates on the latest news about special events like Comic-Con, Ghost Hunters Live and Destination Truth Live. Syfy also offers personalized push notifications that alert you when special news from the channel is announced about the shows and more.
I dunno, I was hoping they’d be able to pull of more than just the usual behind the scenes stuff. In this day and age, streaming content is a requirement for any sort of media linked app, and it’s a poor show that Syfy can’t offer that.
