Thanky ou for Multi-Device Support!
I love this app. This has been a great platform for my home DVR having pulled the plug on cable. And being able to use the app on my M4 Mac Mini is just one more reason this app is a no-brainer. It’s stable, your site/community has great support, I simply have no notes. Thank you!
Great piece of software
I’ve been using Channels almost every day for years. This app has allowed me to get rid of two cable boxes, saving almost $30 a month. Admittedly the setup can be complex, but I am experienced in software.
The main features DVR, pausing and rewinding live tv, and being a media server serve all my non streaming media needs.
Plus in the years of using it, I have only encountered a couple of bugs.
This company should advertise this app more. Everyone always talks about Plex and Kodi. I know they are not 100% equivalent, but they share the same space.

Excellent
Does what it says on the tin. I have been using this now for over 12 months and found it easy to use and very reliable. It would have gotten 5 stars if the guide search was improved. If I want to pick a day a week ahead I have to troll through day after day until I get to the day I want.
Love it
Everything is great except that I’m paying for this and my PiP is blocked by you guys having a “Rate our App” popup over the picture. Hopefully this goes away now…
Amazing
This is the absolute solution for an Apple tv device user that OS looking to combine live tv with personal collections and on demand apps. It is constantly updated with new features. Create your own virtual channels. Import your own media. Create collections. Download to devices. Integrate live tv from aerial and online sources. Deeplink content to apps you sibscribe to so content from Disney for example sits in your library next to your own content. So good.

IT IS NOT FREE TV !
You need to pay for a TV streaming service. This is misleading. Its not an app to watch free Live TV
Continual problems
Repeated error messages that file is corrupted.
I continually report problems but nothing is done to correct the problem.
Audio goes in and out. This has been a problem for weeks.

Better than cable
This service is far superior to cable, satellite, or streaming services for watching and recording. It combines over the air with your other feeds for a truly seamless TV experience.
Still a bit buggy
The Apple TV app gets into a state where it is stuck on a show from the “TV Shows” sidebar.
I finally figured out how to force quit the app to restart it, instead of rebooting the Apple TV, but it is still quite annoying.
I suspect there is a memory leak. If the app was rewritten in Rust (at least the parts that could be), the issue of memory leaks might go away.

Great Single App for everything
I was hoping this app could be the one and only app for all Contant although it is fantastic and it is my go to app or watching personal content. The streaming is still questionable when away from home constant transporter errors and it can only stream for five seconds. if you are local, everything works perfectly. I was trying to see if this could replace Plexes and so far it’s doing very well, but there are reservations that keep me from fully moving over to this app.

Great product and company
Product works great and support is terrific.
Still no recordings on ipadOS
Been using this for years and although it works well on tvOS and using a browser, the iPad version still does not allow you to watch recordings (library is always empty). Apparently, this was fixed in a test (beta) version last year however it still hasn’t been released to live. New features are great but lets get the basics working first.

BEST DVR server
This is the BEST DVR server hands down and not to mention the developers are Top class! Thank you sooo much and keep up the great work. You guys ROCK!
Works well for the most part
I am using it on my Apple TV 4K with a Synology server. Wish list: - HEVC channels should be listed under HD, or better yet, add an HEVC tab - display the channel recorded in the description of the recorded show. - allow selection of HD only when setting a series pass. - when creating a series pass, default to the current guide channel if the channel option is selected - allow multiple channels to be selected with a pass, it is currently one or all (this is somewhat related to allowing the specification of HD-only, but HD-only should include HEVC)

Terrible
Never works.
Better than HD Homerun DVR
Works a lot better than the stock app with HD Homerun. I have much better success with using the app on FireTv than Apple Tv. Apple Tv app keeps crashing and I get the " can't connect to server" message making it unusable on that platform.
I’ve been looking for this for years.
Fluid pause, rewind, fast forward. Can setup sophisticated DVR searches. Can handle multiple playlists flawlessly. I flipping love this software.
Channels DVR
This keeps on getting connection lost and tuner not available I moved my CDVR server to a NAS but still getting Connection Lost and Tuner not available
Fantastic app and service!
The Channels app and the Channels DVR service is top notch! The price is very reasonable. What an amazing job by the developers. The UI is slick and very easy to navigate. The app hardly crashes. The DVR does its job and records new seasons. It’s like set once and forget. It quietly and flawlessly does its job. Love it and highly recommended!!!

Maddening
I lose track of the number of times the app stops playing and spins and spins until the error message says the tuner is inaccessible.
