Foxtel Guide

Want to know what’s on Foxtel right now? Well now you can with the Foxtel Guide. No matter where you are or what time of day you’ll be able to see exactly what’s on Foxtel.

If you find a show you like, set a reminder alert notifying you 15 minutes before it starts. Even better, if you’re away from your home or office you can setup a remote record to your Foxtel iQ or iQHD meaning that your shows will be there waiting for you ready to watch when you are. You can even Series Link programs ensuring you don't miss any episodes of your favourite programs.

The Foxtel Guide allows you to easily browse Foxtel's Guide in a single channel view or grid view modes and to make browsing even easier, personalise your very own list of channels in Favourites.

Change channels on your iQ from the Foxtel Guide when you’re in front of your TV. When you’re looking through the Foxtel Guide, and come across a program you like, if the ‘Change Channel’ button is available, you can easily change to that channel with a press of a button.

More like this is a feature on the Foxtel Guide that will recommend you similar programs based on actors, genres, directors or channels, making it easier to find things you’ll enjoy to watch.

Not sure what to watch from all of Foxtel’s great programming? Try browsing through Foxtel’s recommended content which we call ‘Preview’. Preview is configurable so that you can personalise this to suggest programs to your likings from Sports, Entertainment, Movies and Lifestyle & Documentaries.

The Foxtel Guide also makes finding programs so much easier with a number of search tools such as storing recent searches, suggestions as you type, ‘Did you mean…’ suggestions if you’ve not sure of a title or misspell a title. As well as setting filters allowing the Foxtel Guide to return results satisfying these criteria.
