How to VOX

Vox is the name of the new MYETV‘s project aimed at free communication between people. Many messaging software- [Program/Software: the instructions that control what a computer does; computer programs] - is inadequate for the purpose of protecting our customers’ privacy; for this reason we decided to build an entire platform- [Platform: the set of the main domain and all the subdomain of a particular website; also the computer architecture and equipment using a particular operating system] - , exclusive to MYETV, to facilitate communication even between people not directly registered on the site. We have introduced VOX a few days ago, announcing that it would be ready soon. The functionality is not yet active worldwide, but we are trying to cascade it in all the countries where we are allowed. For more information, consult the project roadmap. Currently V.O.X. is turned on and supported in all these areas specified in the project roadmap.

HOW TO USE VOX

VOX is accessible from messenger.myetv.tv or from inside the MYETV platform at the top of the screen or by digit a plus symbol (+) followed by the entire number of the person you want to reach. You can view all your messages and access- [Access the simple access to a website as a visitor] - at the first page of VOX by type only the plus symbol (+) in the search engine- [Search Engine: is the application that deals with the search for content, networks or anything else on the platform] - of MYETV, in the MYRC keyboard or in any other device that can be connected to VOX.

HOW IT WORKS
