User Reviews

Most user reviews complain that Astound TV+ is unreliable and difficult to use: sign-in errors, crashes, and long load times are common; streaming often works only on the home network; TiVo/DVR integration is inconsistent; and modern features like PiP and AirPlay are missing. A few notes mention on-demand content and DVR capability as positives when the app functions, but overall the app is seen as poorly maintained and not user-friendly.
Pros
  • On-demand content availability
  • DVR recording/viewing capability and integration (when it works)
  • Historically offered reliable on-demand/DVR features in earlier versions
Cons
  • Frequent sign-in/login errors preventing access (e.g., 'error happened' messages)
  • Frequent crashes, freezes, and long loading times that disrupt viewing
  • Streaming restricted to your home network and cannot be watched outside the home
  • Lack of modern features (no Picture-in-Picture, no AirPlay, no keychain/FaceID, limited multitasking)
  • Incompatibilities with TiVo boxes and ongoing DVR integration issues after updates

Until about 3 weeks ago I had no problems using the Astound TV+ app. I’ve recorded numerous movies, and liked the on-demand capability. But then it just stopped signing in and working. I spent quite a bit of time with their customer service member and they never could get it to connect again. The last thing they said was that they’d send an email to their network folks. Never heard anything back from them, nor did they get my iPad to connect. So basically the iPad app is completely useless now.

This is undoubtedly the worst streaming app ever invented. Takes forever to load, crashes constantly, takes an excruciating amount of time anytime you want to change channels. It’s crazy how much better the Xfinity app was and is.

Even though it states an older version is available if you have an older device, don’t bother because it never logs you in. I’ve been unable to use this app for months.
