iWant users can still access the app until Aug. 31. Premium subscribers can log in with their current email address or mobile number. However, users who have a free or basic plan need to create a new account in the iWant TFC app or website.
Both iWant and TFC offered movies, ABS-CBN teleseryes and news, sports, entertainment and lifestyle shows.
The move comes after ABS-CBN was denied a franchise renewal by Congress in July.
