Review summary

Reviewers overwhelmingly report TiVo's Android app as unreliable, with sign‑in and password reset loops being the most cited issue. Many users can't log in, or must repeatedly change passwords, and the app often locks up or freezes. Streaming and video playback are frequently failing, while some devices and 2.0 requirements add compatibility challenges. A minority note that remote control features can work on a stable network, but overall reliability issues dominate.

Pros

Remote control of TiVo boxes from the Android app.
Streaming can work on a reliable Wi‑Fi network.

Cons

Frequent sign‑in failures and endless password reset prompts; many users cannot log in.
Unstable app behavior with freezing, buffering, or crashes.
Inability to stream or play video reliably via the app.
Compatibility and feature limitations, including device-specific issues and references to 2.0 requirements not being available.
Recurring setup/reboot loops that prevent easy access to content.

2026-03-29	Dr*****	Out of home streaming is not reliable. Every 2 days I get E=39, V=4 error, have to remote to my Home PC, run KMTTG, do three consecutive service connections, which takes about 25 minutes. Then remotely reboot the Romio, then do 2 more consecutive service connections, then hard boot the TiVo with a remote plug, then wait two hours and log in to theTiVo app after clearing the cache, then pray hard that the error is gone.
