Nickelodeon and OSN have jointly released the Nickelodeon Play app for the MENA region. Although the app is free to download throughout the MENA region, only OSN subscribers will have access to full episodes of favourite Nickelodeon shows.
The app will include both English and Arabic content and OSN subscribers will receive exclusive access to full episodes via their OSN credentials. The tile layout on the app enables a swipe in any direction, promotes discovery and exploration and offers children on-demand access to more than 1,000 pieces of Nickelodeon-themed content. In addition to exclusive content for OSN subscribers, there will be original skits and sketches, behind-the-scenes clips from Nick stars and animated characters, new games, and surprising random hilarity.
Since launching on iOS in the US in 2013, the app has amassed more than 17 million downloads to date, rolling out internationally across the UK and Latin America. The goal of the app was to go beyond free video viewing, and instead offer more interactive content not seen on television whenever and wherever the user wants it. As a result, its technical achievements were honored with a Creative Arts Emmy in the Outstanding Creative Achievement in Interactive Media category in September 2013.
Nickelodeon HD is available exclusively on OSN in the MENA region.
