    Spectrum Cable on My PC?

    I just got Spectrum Cable and I do have a smartish TV, meaning I can’t install any apps on it, but it does have like 4 apps preinstalled. I do not want a cable box, becuase I barely ever watch TV, but once in a while I do watch, usually during football season. I have my computer hooked up to my smart TV 24/7, so is there a way for me to install cable channel apps to my computer?

    Hello

    It seems to be the app you are looking for may be a priority app..

    Spectrum (Charter)
    Spectrum provides users with the Spectrum TV® app. It allows users to watch their cable TV content—plus up to 50,000 on-demand movies and shows on Apple TV 4K, Google Chromecast, iOS and Android mobile devices, Kindle Fire, Roku* players and TVs (except first-generation), Samsung Smart TVs*, and Xbox One*.

    (*Requires Charter-authorized modem.)

    You can also use the Spectrum TV® app to access and edit your watchlist, program your DVR remotely, view account details, and more.

    Another cool feature of the app is that you get unlimited simultaneous streams at home (but only two when you’re outside your home network).

      yeah I actually found out that Spectrum has a website that allows me to watch live TV on my PC, so they don’t really have an app for PC. So I just added a shortcut to the site to my desktop. Now if I want to watch live TV then i can just click the shortcut and it takes me to the website. But really it’s not a big deal because they are sending me an AppleTV box, so it will have every app on there and I can add apps.

          yeah, you can mark this as solved. Putting the Spectrum TV website as a shortcut on my desktop seems to work just fine.
