How to restart show that previously aired

We just switched to bell from execulink and are very happy with our decision.  One thing we're missing is the ability to watch programs that have already ended from the day before.  We had this feature on execulink, rogers and previously on bell satellite.  Will this be an improvement in the future?  To be able to watch programs from the night before that you forgot to PVR?  Thanks

Good Day & Welcome.

Thank you @LisaS for posting your question.

To watch a show on a streaming device, Smart TV, or mobile device, etc. from the previous day on an equipment less Bell Fibe TV setup (using the Fibe TV app ), you can:

  1. Use your Cloud PVR recordings or
  2. You can select the TV show or movie using the Fibe TV On Demand feature. To access on demand content, using the Fibe TV app, choose Shows or Movies from the Home screen.

The Bell Fibe TV On Demand service lets you stream movies, TV shows and other content, whenever you want that are included in your package.

  • Please note: Not every live channel provides a catch-up or on-demand library. Major networks such as: CTV, Global, Crave, etc., offer extensive on-demand programming, but smaller or specialized independent channels might not offer on-demand content.
  • In order to watch a channel on demand, you must subscribe to that channel. There is no extra charge to access a channel that is included in your package on demand.

Once you open the Fibe TV app or go to tv.bell.ca using Web, go to the Shows or Movies section. Select your desired title and or subcategory, e.g. Channels, Sports, Family & Kids, etc. You can choose to rent, play or add the title to your watch list.

I have included this support document that will demonstrate the use of the Fibe TV app On Demand catalogue.
