Hulu Plus arrives on 7 Android tablets, but no Galaxy Tab 10.1 yet

Hulu Plus is now available on seven Android tablets, the online film and TV service Hulu announced today. As part of the launch, the company is also introducing a new user interface for its Hulu Plus app. As for the redesign, its ambition is to make the most of the tablet’s visuals.

The newly supported devices are the Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime, Asus Eee Pad Transformer, Motorola Xoom, Motorola XYBoard 10.1, Toshiba Thrive, Acer Iconia and LG G-Slate.

However, Hulu still isn’t compatible with the Galaxy Tab 10.1 – though the company points out that “This is just the beginning of [its] Android tablet rollout.”

As for the redesign, its ambition is to make the most of the tablet’s visuals.

As an added bonus, Hulu does point out one very cool feature:

“When building this app, we looked for ways to grant you instant access to exactly what you want to watch. Once you decide on a show, hold your finger down on the show’s thumbnail and the latest episode of the series will automatically start playing. If you’ve been following a show for a while, hold your finger down on the show’s thumbnail and the next episode will automatically launch based on where you are in the series.”
