User Reviews

Users like the FYI TV library and the easy, device-friendly viewing experience, with good video quality and free access. However, recurring issues with Live TV, ad-induced freezes, general instability, lack of Chromecast support, and missing content/seasons significantly impact the overall experience.

Pros

Extensive library of FYI shows, including nostalgic titles that aren’t easily found elsewhere.
Easy-to-use interface with intuitive navigation and generally quick loading.
Good video quality with new episodes available and reliable access to content.
Strong performance on Apple devices (iPad and Apple TV), including 4K on Apple TV.
Free, ad-supported access helps users watch without a paid subscription.

Cons

Live TV often fails to load or requires provider authentication, making live viewing unreliable.
Ad playback frequently freezes, stutters, or causes the app to crash after commercials.
Overall app stability is poor at times, with crashes and slow responsiveness beyond just ad playback.
No Chromecast support, limiting casting to larger screens or other devices.
Content gaps exist: some shows/seasons are missing or behind paywalls, reducing access to desired content.

Recent reviews

Only reason I got it was to watch FYI live, but all I get is a failed to load video error. I can watch other shows in the app, but Live doesn’t work, so….deleting.

Use this app for one thing - Barrett-Jackson. I get there are ads, and am ok with sitting through them, but when the ads don’t run properly - that’s a big problem. Ads for prescription drugs freeze after about 2 seconds and it’s a constant start and stop. Makes for a terrible user experience Miss them being on Motortrend - no issues there at all.
