kwiry has enhanced its text messages service with a Shortcuts platform which include the ability to schedule a TV show recording on a TiVo DVR. kwiry launched its Shortcuts service in August with Netflix and Amazon integrations.


As an example, if a co-worker raves about the latest episode of a TV show, simply text “TiVo” followed by the TV program title [e.g. "TiVo 30 Rock" to kwiry's Text Messaging shortcode, 59479 (k-w-i-r-y)]. kwiry automatically schedules the next episode of the show to be recorded on your TiVo DVR. The service complements other ways for TiVo subscribers to schedule their TiVo box while on the go including the TiVo Mobile website. kwiry’s service extends TiVo scheduling to all cell phones with text messaging capabilities with no need for a browser or a data plan.

With a one-time account link, all TiVo Series2 and Series3 DVR users can have the capability to instantly schedule a recording whenever and wherever they want. wiry has now also integrated with Facebook Connect, allowing people to sign-in to kwiry.com with their Facebook accounts, instantly adding their Facebook profile info to kwiry and allowing connections to their Facebook Friends.
