Tesla founder Elon Musk wants X to be as popular as YouTube, and he’s already making significant steps towards that goal. Musk personally told MrBeast, the most popular YouTuber, to post full videos on X. X’s Chief Executive Officer, Linda Yaccarino, talked about the platform’s change to become a “video-first” service earlier this year.
According to Mashable, X has released a smart TV app that can only be used to watch content on the platform, which fits with this strategy.
It was reported that Musk recently talked about the “Beta version of X TV” on X.

User-Friendly Interface with Advanced Features
One of the most notable features of the recently released television application is its easy-to-use interface, which has been meticulously crafted to provide a seamless and uncomplicated experience.
Some of the advanced features included in this application include customisable watchlists, intelligent recommendations based on viewing history, and simple navigation between live and on-demand content.
Users can also take advantage of high-definition streaming, offline viewing options, and synchronised playback across multiple devices, which guarantees that their viewing experience will be both fun and convenient.
Compatibility of X TV App with Smart Devices
Smart TV owners can now get the X TV app from Google Play, Amazon’s app store, and LG’s app store. Yet, it’s unavailable on Apple TV or the tvOS Apple App Store.

The app allows users to browse through and watch videos uploaded to X, including live streams, directly on their televisions. According to the report, users must sign in with their X account to use X TV.
In the past, to watch content from X on a television, one had to cast it from a secondary device such as an iPhone or an Android smartphone.
Musk wants to make X into an “everything” app that includes financial services and social media. In addition to posting videos, X users will have to see if X TV changes how they interact with video content on the platform or just reinforces their existing habits, the report said.
