Garbage

donidonidoni

New version is garbage. Onscreen remote is gone, no way to power on receiver. TV always starts small, always have to maximize. Guide is terrible, no descriptions. Big UX downgrade. Purposely sabotaging customers? Fire your product manager.

New IU major step backwards

Bucksfan91

Love this app right until the UI update. Very difficult to navigate and lack features.

4.0 a fail!

mearts

I'd give one star or less but site won't post review. 4.0 Doesn't work full screen on hdmi, vga & 1/2 the time on iPhone w/ out reboot! Not an improvement, terrible SW build. Give 3.8.51 back until this unusable crap is fixed. Please!

Where is TV guide descriptions??

This is one of the best features and it is gone on my iPhone update now!! Booooo I won’t update my iPad so that I can still go back and get info there

Distorted on iPhone X

Super BS

Aspect ratio is incorrect resulting in short fat people and video behind the notch! Unacceptable

Functions disappeared

Suddenly the remote control and any ability to control the tv and channels ha e disappeared. The remote function is gone as well as the keypad and any other menu options. It has rendered the slingbox useless since I can’t change channels.

Revamp renders app useless

Davros0074

I used to love this app, used it with my slingbox pro HD to watch Directv and my OTA. But the 4.0 upgrade is WORTHLESS. The new UI does not allow one to bring up the remote control until AFTER a video stream is detected. My remote DirecTV box requires a power on to wake it up as it goes to sleep on its own. As such, this app is now 100% unusable for me until this is fixed. Note: I can connect with the Slingplayer app on PC abd sebd remote power to the sling box. After doing so, the iOS Slingplayer app is fine, with the full remote UI coming up after video detected. So I know the only issue here is needing access to the remote controls after connecting to slingbox but before video is detected. PLEASE FIX!!

Hidden Advertisements

MrBrooklynB

Why is there an “Automatically connect” option if you STILL have to press “Start Watching”? I paid 30 dollars for this app years ago. The “Gallery, top channels” is a form of ads in disguise. There should be an option to get rid of it. Shame on you. I will find a way to get this to the right people

No longer able to change channels?!?

Writing this on December 11th, 2018 and I have had this for 5 yeRs. Now I’m no longer able to change the channel on my iphone/ipad and laptop?!? What the heck is up with this?!? This is completely useless.

Please fix immediately or I’m returning it.

I just got it in the mail today and I can’t access my DVR on anything. iPhone no DVR button. iPad DVR button does nothing. Computer no DVR button. Waste of $30 on app. Please fix.
