DirecTV is making another signficant user experience enhancement to its Gemini and Gemini Air streaming devices with the launch of the new DirecTV My Apps Carousel.
The upgrade follows the rollout of the Your TV carousel on Gemini devices earlier this year.
The new DirecTV My Apps Carousel aggregates the most-watched trending on-demand and live content from popular third-party streaming apps and puts them in an easy-to-navigate, user-friendly format, the company said.
In addition to having all their favorite apps in one place, users can order the apps in the carousel based on personal preference, making this ideal for both content-bingers and sports fans alike. It is also designed to eliminate the problem of finding a user’s favorite programming, DirecTV reported.
The DirecTV My Apps carousel is available for a limited amount of existing customers at launch on Nov. 7 but will be available to all Gemini and Gemini Air users in the weeks to come.
The Streaming Wars is intentionally ad-free
We don’t run display ads. Not because we can’t, but because we don’t believe in them.
They interrupt the reading experience. They cheapen the work. And they burn advertisers’ money on impressions nobody actually wants.
So we chose a different model.
We say the things people in this industry are already thinking but don’t say out loud. We connect the dots beyond the headline and focus on explaining why things matter to the people working in this business.

Support is optional. But it directly funds research and continued coverage — and helps prove this model can work.
