The subscribers to the devices who download the HSN Shop App have the ability to view HSN programming 24/7 nationwide. The launch creates the e-commerce industry's first live-video "3-screen experience," enabling consumers to browse and shop the network's 35,000+ array of products from home or on the go.

All the features from HSN and hsn.com are included in the app, available for download at both the iTunes App Store and HSN.com. The HSN Shop App also introduces a set of new features, including the interactive shake2shop, which, with a shake of the device, generates random product recommendations and deals and promotions targeted at HSN's mobile customers.
