Needs improvement.

Content is awesome, but navigating in the app is cumbersome and I often have to restart it in order to progress on to the next episode of whatever show I’m watching.

Ideas

I enjoy Sunday night shows on PBS especially Miss Scarlet and the Duke. She needs to wake up and grab that handsome man the Duke. But I’ve enjoyed all the shows and specials . It would be good if the interludes between Downton Abbey were shorter or more varied . The Nature and Nova are great as well as the travel shows. Thank you for all the entertainment.

Response from developer

56.5, the Michigan Learning Channel is now available through the App! Watch the livestream, view the schedule and lesson content on-demand now.

Doesnt work.

Its never worked for me. I pick an episode, the screen goes black, I have to restart the app. Thats about as far as Ive ever got with it. Would love to get this part of the membership benefits that I pay for!!

Amazing APP

It seems like watching specific programs at specific times has given way to on demand viewing. This is extraordinary for DPTV. So much to watch, so little time.

Thanks. This app fixes that!
