I love this app! The DVR is the best entertainment purchase I've made in decades. The hardware is cheap, the set up is easy, and the available free content is off the charts. I spend a few minutes each week scheduling recordings and have a fully stocked library of my choices at all times. And I can watch the commercials or not. Highly recommended.

Jim F, 2024-10-11What kind of video recording app lets you schedule recordings, tells you that the program is being recorded with a little red circle, but doesn't actually record your program because DVR Active = No in the settings? This app. No warning about the subscription ending in the app, no notification e-mail. You just find out after troubleshooting that your scheduled recordings for the past 5 days didn't happen because your subscription had expired. Never seen anything like it.

Mike L., 2024-08-10I have had these app for a while and never really had any issues. However, for more than a week now it has stopped working on all my devices. Android, Roku, and Fire stick. Forums and online chats stated that it was a bad update. Took several days to come out with another update but it only worked for a day...now back to not working at all on all devices. Not happy at all! Just go back to what was working already.
