"Stevie, the quirkily-named, TV-focused startup that emerged from Microsoft's Azure Accelerator in Israel earlier this year, has\u00A0announced\u00A0a $1.5m Series-A funding round and the launch of its app on the iPhone.\r\n\r\nStevie takes videos from users'\u00A0Facebook and Twitter feeds along with other content from around the Web and presents it all in a format perfect for TVs. That doesn't preclude it from consumption elsewhere though. In addition to signing a deal to bring its service\u00A0to the Xbox 360, Stevie offers iPad, Windows 8 and Web apps, as well as iPhone and Android apps for remotely controlling the Stevie experience.\r\n\r\nThe new iPhone app brings all Stevie's channels to a smartphone-sized screen for the first time, perfect for relaxing with a stream of videos while you're on the go.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nMeanwhile, Stevie's $1.5 million Series A round comes from\u00A0Horizons Ventures and brings the startup's total funding so far to $2.1 million. The fresh cash will be used to help bring\u00A0Stevie to more types of devices, including the\u00A0aforementioned\u00A0Xbox, plus Android and connected TVs.\r\n\r\n\u27A4\u00A0Stevie\u00A0/ iPhone\r\n\r\nDisclosure: This article contains an affiliate link.
