The Heroes Reborn app was launched by NBC as a means to deliver both old and new content.
Old Content
Users of the Heroes Reborn app can browse old content from Heroes in several ways. Users can scroll through Season 1, Season 2, Season 3, and Season 4 of Heroes. Under these season headings, users have several options: explore the main characters of each season (including reading information about each character and watching key scenes involving each character), watching "specially curated" clips and text from each episode of the given season, or being directed to a link to buy and download the full episode from the iTunes Store (at $2.99 per episode).
New Content
In addition to watching the old episodes and content from Heroes, users of the app could also see content from Dark Matters and Heroes Reborn.
Dark Matters
At first, the Dark Matters section of the app had links to the characters Aly, Phoebe, Quentin, and Hero Truther. Clicking on any of their pictures, or clicking on the the link for "Episode 1", takes the user to a Dark Matters extended preview, including a faux YouTube advertisement for Renautas, and introducing watchers to the idea of evos in the years following Claire's leap from the Ferris Wheel, and to the characters Phoebe, Quentin, and Hero Truther. After July 24, 2015, users of the app can receive new content, including the prequel series Dark Matters.
Heroes Reborn
When the app was first released, the section for Heroes Reborn Season 1 listed the following characters
