Legacy Tablo

It would’ve been nice if the description said, “The legacy iPhone and iPad apps are not compatible with TV-connected Tablo models (Tablo DUAL HDMI & Tablo QUAD HDMI)”. Could save a lot of frustration and wasted time.

Does nothing. Spinning wheel of death, never finds my device. Non-legacy app doesn’t work either.

Update 6/13/25: The iPad OS app is now back to not being good again. Dropped 2 stars. Forgets where you left off in a recorded show and always starts from the beginning. Update 3/19/25: Some of the issues I described below have been fixed!! You can now see the entire recorded show when you press play so you can fast forward to a specific time. It also remembers where you left off in a show and does not start over from the begining. Fixing these two issues has raised my rating to 5 stars. Thank you!!! **Original review: I use my Tablo almost daily and the iPad app is the worst one out of my 3 devices. I have minimal to no issues with my Pixel phone and my Nvidia Shield TV. Maybe it’s a limitation of iOS compared to android but I’m not so sure. The iPad app forgets where you left off in a recorded show so it starts from the beginning and there is no way to fast forward to a specific time until it buffers the entire show. And then you start watching and the show stops buffering with 20 minutes left with no way to continue so you have to start all over again. Also, the way recorded shows are displayed is annoying. There is no way to select a specific season so if you have 14 seasons of a show recorded it has the newest season at the top and oldest at the bottom. This requires scrolling allllll the way down to the bottom. Who watches a show in reverse order?? The android apps have a way to select a season and a “watch next” button to start where you left off.
