Works great!

The app works as intended. I have had zero problems. For a free app I can not complain. PlayOn service for your pc will cost you, but get the lifetime and wait for a sale and you are good to go.


Service just doesn’t work.

I paid for the lifetime plan a few years ago. It used to work well. Now, it doesn’t record most of the time. When updated it may work for a day, then will cease to work from that point forward. The app is horrible also. It doesn’t see my recordings, and when accessing channels, shows nothing. Al-in-all, a total disappointment and waste of time. Just a matter of time before company closes it’s doors and program totally shuts down. Avoid.


Don't download if on iOS 8

Worked perfect until I updated to latest iOS 8 version. Now crashes out right before stream starts. Crashes 100% of the time.


I used to love it...now iOS 8 crashes it

Thank you for updating the app to work with iOS 8. Works perfectly again!!!! Love the look and feel of the new version of the app. I don't watch a lot of videos on my phone, but the PlayOn app lets me browse PlayOn server and cast videos to my Roku, Chromecast or Xbox. I can also add videos to my PlayLater recording queue. Slick and easy!


IOS8 :(((())))

Update:: they fixed the playback and while they speak of another issue I'm not sure I see it. My content is working both from home and remotely via the application now. :) Luckily when I signed up today for a the Lifetime License with both PlayOn and PlayLater as well as the HD support I wasn't primarily looking at the support for a Mobile device because well it simply does NOT work. As others have said it gets as far as selecting the stream but if you attempt to play it the whole application crashes and is simply gone. Hope this gets fixed because even though my primary reason for the server is to play my local videos and several streaming services (including ESPN) on my several TVs is would be nice if this worked also...especially if the remote mobile option works.


Works on iOS 8 - Thank you!
