How to Watch DSTV on an Android Phone
It’s nearly impossible to watch your DSTV channels on Android phones simply because such phones do not feature built-in DVB-H receivers, making them incapable of receiving TV signals. But to bypass this seeming impossibility, DSTV provides customers with the DSTV Mobile Wi-Fi Drifta for receiving TV signals required for the broadcast of DSTV channels via a Wi-Fi connection. With this in place, users of Android phones and tablet computers are then able to watch DSTV channels on the devices.
Quite unfortunately, it isn’t in all Nigerian cities that you can use DSTV Mobile. While you’re expected to be in a supported area before you can make use of DSTV Mobile, below is a list of the Nigerian cities with DSTV Mobile coverage:
- Port Harcourt
- Lagos
