App is horrible

You have to be connected to in home wifi for everything. At least with verizon fios, tou can actually use the app and watch tv everywhere without wifi. Cox/Spectrum needs to update their licensing agreements or get left behind.

ESPN

Always Good! Great Sports Network!!

Contour out of home

It’d be nice if all channels were available out of home. Other than that, I have no complaints. I use it in bed, as I do not have a TV in the bedroom. Great app!!

Unavailable Channels

I’m not home several days a week and like to stay connected to my local news. In order to watch my news, I have to use my “home” WiFi. Well I’m not home and cannot view channels. Not everyone has a tv now a days so staying connected is very important to me. Not having the ability to do so several times per week is absolutely frustrating.
I know I am not the only person having this issue but I am able to post the issue.
Please figure out how to help us with this. The news is very significant! Thank you

Contour TV

A lot of choices.

Needs fixed

This app is terrible. If I’m watching a TV show and press the lock button on my iPhone, I expect the show to stop playing. Instead, Contour keeps playing the audio in the background as if I’m listening to music or a podcast. Why would I want a TV show continuing to play after I’ve turned my screen off? This is basic functionality that should have been addressed a long time ago. Very frustrating and makes the app feel poorly designed

Constantly error

Got access to this via apartment but it's terrible. Always see an error when I look at the guide. Can't use contour in other apps either

Watching remotely

Trying to watch remotely and due to licensing or technical difficulties it doesn’t work… preferred dish network

So Easy To Use

Especially when I’m not near my TV and remembered I wanted to record something

Kingwalking

My fox tv is always with me. I love contour tv

Not Consistent

I recently switched temporarily to this Cox Contour App as I’d been using YouTube TV and wanted to see if there was a difference between the two. There is.
Since switching to Cox (in South Central KS), I’ve experienced numerous disruptions and app shut downs. Currently, following the recent update, there is no sound from certain networks. This could be in that network yet, I don’t have a way to reach out to those networks to let them know. It seems that would be a communication for Cox to manage.

Ultimately, I’LL likely be switching back to YouTube TV. There service was consistent and reliable.

TV

I love this app when I am not home. I can watch all my favorite shows.

no sound on certain channels

as above works when out of town then certain stations loose sound

Multiview Apple TV

Please create a multiview/multicast feature for the AppleTV app so we can watch up to four sports at once.

Also, we need ALL channels that we pay for available anywhere away from home!

Update killed casting to Chrome.

Recent update for iOS now has all google casting broken for all TVs from all iPhones. Junk. Terrible app. Thanks Cox.
