What’s in the app:

V-ID:
Discover videos by simply pointing your phone at a television or computer screen to capture a few seconds of what you’re watching. The VideoSurf mobile application quickly identifies the episode and celebrities, provides more information about what was identified and suggests other videos to watch.

We currently index over 75 channels, including all major broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX), other popular networks (ESPN, USA, TBS, TNT, CNN, MTV, VH1, etc.) and premium channels (HBO, Showtime and Starz!). As we are expanding our coverage, we do not index local programming yet.
