TiVo BOLT OTA™ for antenna.
Let the fun begin.
TiVo Home, your entertainment headquarters.
The starting point for the TiVo BOLT OTA experience is the TiVo Home screen. Get there by pressing the TiVo button on the top of your remote. From here, you can go to My Shows, where you’ll find all your recorded and streaming content, or browse for something new to watch. Even better, you can do it all using your voice! The Home screen is also where you can manage your OnePass™ requests, see what’s scheduled to record or customize your experience.
Complete control with the power of your voice.
The TiVo VOX Remote™ takes the functionality of the classic TiVo remote and adds a super power: voice control. The VOX Remote lets you speak naturally and gives you the ability to narrow your search results as you go.
Here are some things you can do with voice:
Tune to a channel: “Watch CBS.”
Browse for something specific: Start with “Show me Chevy Chase movies.” When you see the results, narrow your search: “From the ‘80s. On Prime Video.”
Tell the remote to “Skip it” for SkipMode®-enabled shows and zip past commercial breaks instantly.1
Look for shows on popular apps: “Show me kids’ shows on Netflix.”
You can even ask for your favorite sports team: “When are the Warriors playing?”

Watch at your pace, without breaks or dull moments.
The SkipMode® and QuickMode® features give you even more control over your entertainment experience.
SkipMode
TiVo BOLT OTA lets you skip entire commercial breaks in two ways. Using just your voice, you can say “Skip it” into your TiVo VOX Remote when a commercial break on a SkipMode-enabled show is about to start. Your BOLT OTA will zip past the entire break and resume playing at the beginning of the next scene in your recorded show. You can also press the SKIP button on your remote to perform the same function.
(You’ll know if SkipMode is available on a show a few minutes after it’s finished recording — just look for the SKIP icon next to the show title in My Shows.)
What channels and times are eligible for SkipMode?
QuickMode
QuickMode lets you watch recorded shows and sports 30% faster than normal speed — without the sound getting squirrely on you. It’s great for getting through the dull stuff without missing any of the action. When you’re watching a recorded show, turn QuickMode on by pressing PLAY then pressing SELECT when the TrickPlay™ bar appears.
