Bouygues launches Bbox tab on Android

France’s Bouygues Telecom has launched its Bbox tab application on Android-based tablets following its launch on the Apple iPad in December.

The Bbox tab allows Bbox subscribers to watch a number of TV channels live, access the TV guide and set reminders, programme recordings remotely, access the Bbox video-on-demand service and use the phone or tablet as a remote control.

The app is available on the Samsung Galaxy Tab, Samsung Galaxy 8.9, Asus Nexus 7, Archos 10.1, Acer Iconia AF10 and Motorola Xoom, with other tablets set to follow.
