Through this association, Globoplay’s native app was launched on the latest smart TVs from Philips & AOC. After this successful integration, ZEASN’s Whale OS-powered TV models will have the Globoplay Native App integrated and pre-installed on the TV home screen, including a hotkey on the remote control, as agreed with Globo.
