Are you interested in watching TV shows related to true crime and reality? A&E is the right choice. Unfortunately, the A&E app is unavailable in SmartCast, so it can’t be installed on Vizio Smart TV. So, you can install the A&E app on your smartphone and use the Cast or Screen Mirroring methods to wirelessly stream the content. Besides that, you can use the live TV streaming apps to watch the A&E channel on your Smart TV.
