Pricing concerns and perceived ongoing costs (monthly/annual fees or pricey upgrades).
Tuner/remote access and channel scanning reliability issues (tuner unreachable, channels not found).

Recent reviews

Really solid simple app. All i can recommend is adding a dark mode theme for the phone and apple tv app would be so cool especially when watching at night. Anyways thanks for the great app!

This app is so clean and well designed. I absolutely love the hidden channel surfing feature! It’s fast and really a reminder of how channel surfing old school tv. Also love the 2 hour recording/rewind. This app paired with an HDHomeRun is an absolute must for your Apple TV box!
