Based on the Siemens OTT video platform, SUPER RTL has launched a multiscreen video service that aims to meet the needs of both children and their parents. Kividoo is available on web browsers and with apps for iPhones and iPads as well as Android-based mobile devices.
SUPER RTL has chosen OTT video solutions provider, Siemens Convergence Creators, as its prime technology partner. Kividoo is based on Siemens OTT SWIPE, a turnkey solution for multiscreen TV and video distribution. It has been designed for OTT multiscreen video streaming and enables personalised video consumption across all brands, operating systems, and devices.
With kividoo, SUPER RTL is responding aptly to the fact that the young generation uses mobile devices rather than conventional TV sets for watching movies and TV shows,” said Daniel Felicio, CEO Siemens Convergence Creators. “Kividoo is a logical expansion of SUPER RTL’s TV channel towards contemporary digital entertainment. We are very proud that SUPER RTL has chosen Siemens Convergence Creators as technology partner and our OTT video platform as a basis for their innovative multiscreen service.”

We want to give our younger audience the opportunity to watch their most beloved series everywhere at any time and on any mobile-device. For parents kividoo moreover provides simple ways of configuring, which content their kids shall have access to.”
