QuickSet Increases User-Engagement

QuickSet Cloud is now discovering more devices than ever ranging from entertainment devices to other smart home device categories across multiple protocols. The latest release of QuickSet has expanded functionality for entertainment and whole home audio use cases to provide deeper device and content history across an ever-increasing landscape of devices and services in the home. This privacy-first approach in capturing user preferences across devices helps increase engagement through enhanced personalized recommendations for a better end-user experience. QuickSet’s content history capabilities also extended to new categories of content usage in the home such as whole home audio as well as audio/video casting.

Research shows that 49% of Smart TV Households use their Smart TV to stream music/audio while 38% use it to cast from other screens. TV and STB platforms are missing out on user engagement in these non-traditional TV use cases. With more devices capable of streaming within the home, it is necessary to have better insights on content usage across the whole home for better personalization. QuickSet brings whole home audio and extends content discovery to audio/video streaming to expand consumer recommendation across devices and services to better personalize the end-user experience.
