KAMPALA – Airtel Uganda has launched a partnership with Kwese Inflix TV – a provider of decoder TV services in Uganda to launch Mobile TV services.

The all new Kwesé iflix mobile app offers users the ultimate entertainment experience, including live coverage of all 64 matches of the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia and much more, on a world class platform with the best international, regional and local content programs to stream or download.
Kwesé iflix’s vast library of over 10,000 hours of entertainment, includes international first-run exclusive shows, award-winning TV series and blockbuster movies such as ICE, The Royals, Family Time, Love and Hip Hop, Chasing Life, as well as popular local content such as Beneaththe Lies, Home@5, and the Hosteland regional content – Telenovelas such as El Fantasma De Elena, Passion and Power and La Vuida Negra – children’s programs and lifestyle content. The service also offers Ugandans quality content they can watch for free, including short-form drama series and local free-to-air TV stations, such as NTV Uganda and Bukedde TV.

Consumers now have unlimited access to all their favourite shows in a way which suits their lifestyle – on-the-go, on their phone and on their terms. We are excited to deliver our content to even more Ugandans through this partnership”
