While that doesn't include the aforementioned TV viewing, version 1.1.2 integrates remote DVR scheduling (previously left to the company's Mobile Connect phone apps) and allows access to the app and recently updated grid guide when the user is away from home. You'll still need to have the proper TV and internet packages from Cox to make it all go, but there's no additional charge for the app that's available at the source link below.

Cox has an odd way of doing things, granted integrating their apps together is a great thing to do for their subscribers. Other than the fact that only a small percentage of their customers are on the higher tier packages are able to use the app. Remote DVR apps are a very important perk to have access to since we all have become so busy in normal life. If it wasn’t for the Dish Remote Access app I use (and that every Dish subscriber can use), I would miss over half of the shows I want to watch. I never remember to set anything before I leave, so having access to add or remove timers add delete old recordings is a great help. I was convinced recently by a coworker at Dish to upgrade to the Hopper, which of course I did. But I have noticed now that I have access to the Primetime Anytime recordings, the number of timers I set are drastically reduced as are timer conflicts. Being able to record the big four networks on one tuner even makes it conflict free to record my other favorites off of cable channels.
