HBO Go iOS App Updated – Airplay Multitasking, Interactive Game of Thrones Features

HBO has updated their HBO Go iOS app. The main version 2.1 improvement, (unless you’re a Game of Thrones fan), is the addition of AirPlay multitasking support that allows video content to stream form the app to your Apple TV, or other AirPlay compatible device, in the background while leaving the iOS device free to operate other apps.

MacRumors:

The update also offers new interactive features for the channel’s popular Game of Thrones series, which just had its season three debut last week. HBO Go offers users behind-the scenes videos, cast and crew commentary, and detailed set photos.

Updates to the app also include the ever-reliable standy-by, “general performance enhancements.”

HBO Go is available for both the iPad and iPhone and can be downloaded FREE from the App Store. [DIRECT LINK]
