Review summary

Review consensus: The Smart TV Guide app is praised for being easy to use, offering useful TV listings, and supporting a handy at-a-glance widget with a reliable reminder system. However, a strong recurring complaint is the incomplete channel lineup, especially numerous UK/Freeview channels lacking schedules. Users also report a limited, hard-to-configure interface (including inability to reorder favorites). Some report ads and occasional notification/background issues. Overall the app works well for quick viewing but is hampered by missing channels and UX limitations.
Pros
  • Easy to use / intuitive UI
  • Widget support for at-a-glance TV listings
  • Reminders system for programs (including repeats)
  • Overall useful and well-liked for simple TV guide functionality
Cons
  • Missing many channels, especially UK/Freeview channels (incomplete lineup)
  • Listings/interface is limited and hard to customize (e.g., cannot easily reorder favorites)
  • Ads in the app
  • Notifications may not trigger or show when the display is off / background issues

This has potential if the bugs are sorted out, but it's not a viable option yet. It gets us to select our favourite channels at the start (but some are missing from UK Freeview - eg. U & Dave). Then it displays the scheduled listings for these channels - except it doesn't. Some of those selected at the start are now somehow missing (eg. Channel 4 & 5). Even ignoring this, I'm not a fan of the layout, with all the channels mixed together in 1 long timeline list

as far as March 2026, some international channels need fixing, no program displayed, very useful app though, hope they'll solve problems soon!
