Pasadena, CA January 11, 2014 - Pivot (Pivot.tv), Participant Media's TV network targeting Millennials (18-34), today announced the launch of a new version of its Pivot APP at a gathering of the country's television critics.

Pivot gives viewers the ability to watch TV any time, anywhere by offering authenticated Pay TV subscribers TV Everywhere Live and On Demand, on any device. It is currently available for subscribers of DISH and DIRECTV.

"We are a next generation network, so offering our viewers, who are primarily digital natives, the opportunity to watch and connect with Pivot in the way that best meets their lifestyle is incredibly important.
