The JioCinema app was the exclusive Indian streaming partner for the FIFA World Cup, 2022. The streaming service introduced several new features to enhance the viewing experience, and the best of those was the ‘Hype Mode’.

Hype Mode was a one-of-a-kind feature on the streaming app that allowed users to view the game from various camera perspectives, get key information about the two competing teams, and even had a 10-second skip and rewind option, similar to what we see on Netflix.

The Hype Mode offered quick insights into player statistics and other information. Users enjoyed the ability to toggle between different camera perspectives. Several JioCinema users took to Twitter to share their experience with the Hype Mode.

Although watching on TV in parallel but this hype mode on mobile is simply amazing @JioCinema#ArgentinaVsFrance#WorldCuppic.twitter.com/2Ixq0c1QIC

Don’t wanna jinx it for later stages but @JioCinema has actually been so good. Love their hype mode and the fact they have been able to stream in 4K.

Hotstar and Sony Liv aren’t even close in terms of the quality.

Jiocinema deserves an unsung hero award. Got countless Indians a taste of this beautiful sport for free.
First to bring Hype Mode that helps understand the game for beginners and nerds equally. That's the highest form of charity in education.
10/10 experience, take a bow
