## Review summary

Users appreciate the app's up-to-date Irish TV listings and simple user interface with helpful features like reminders and favorite channels. However, many report issues with slow loading, frequent crashes, and failure to display schedules properly. Navigation is limited to viewing one channel's schedule at a time, and some desire sound notifications for reminders. Recent updates have improved stability for some but also introduced a more complicated layout, causing frustration. Overall, the app has good potential but suffers from performance and usability problems affecting the user experience.

- Easy to use with clear and concise interface

### Cons

- Very slow response times and long loading screens
- Navigation limitations such as only being able to time scroll one channel at a time
- Lack of sound reminders for notifications
- Recent updates have made the app more complicated and less user-friendly
