The XTRA FACTOR Launched by Bottle Rocket Apps

October 28th, 2011


It’s Time…To Face…The Music

THE X FACTOR is the hit competition series that gives viewers the opportunity to help choose the next global music sensation.  Judges Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul, L.A. Reid and Nicole Scherzinger have traveled the nation searching for undiscovered talent 12 years old or over – both solo artists and vocal groups – who are worthy of the largest prize in television history: a $5 million recording contract with Syco/Sony Music.

 

Created by Bottle Rocket Apps for X-Factor (FOX) viewers and fans, the XTRA FACTOR for iPad offers a second screen experience meant to be used while the live show is airing.  Fans can see extra/related content about the show, artists performing, and behind-the-scenes information through video, photos and social media content.  The app synchronizes with the show based on the show’s audio that the app is listening for via the iPad’s microphone.

The Xtra Factor for iPad is a free app that takes you behind the scenes of THE X FACTOR.  Experience real-time social feeds and live interactivity as you watch the show.  Explore on-demand video, news, bios and other features even when the show is not on the air.

Download this companion experience and enjoy the show Wednesday and Thursdays on FOX!
