### 2/5 — FiOS TV

*2026-08-06, version 8.4.1*

You should be able to watch FiOS TV on your phone or any device as long as you log in to the app you have to be at home in the house to watch live TV when you pay for it

### 1/5 — Terrible service

*2026-07-24, version 8.4.1*

Can’t access the app outside of my house. Can never access my dvr. The app sucks.

### 1/5 — Authentication error

*2026-07-23, version 8.4.1*

### 1/5 — DVR recordings

*2026-07-22, version 8.4.1*

I can’t access my recordings on the app.

### 1/5 — No premium service

*2026-07-19, version 8.4.1*

Verizon knows how to piss off customers.I live in two locations and use my iPad constantly at both locations in NY and PA.Verizon constantly cuts off my premium service on the iPad.My Fios tv in NY has the premium service.Usually when this happened i wood have To ID myself with user name and password and all service would be restored .Now it doesn’t ask that only says error and gives me a ticket number.Called tech support and did what the asked still no service.Ready to go to another provider.t

### 1/5 — Not all channels available

*2026-07-19, version 8.4.1*

You shoudm be able to watch the channels outside if the home. It makes no sense to have a Verizon app

### 1/5 — FIOS mobile app

*2026-07-18, version 8.4.1*

Cannot log in. Keeps rejecting my credentials

### 1/5 — User experience

*2026-07-18, version 8.4.1*

App is junk, hard to use, hard to sign in, hard to find stuff. Hire Apple and start over

### 1/5 — Fios tv mobile

*2026-07-16, version 8.4.1*

Does not allow me to watch many national channels, ie channels that are NOT location-specific. For example, TLC, OWN, NewsNation. This is not correct per their policy, I’ve reported it, yet it still is not corrected. Shame on you, Verizon. I suspect you will lose many viewers to YouTube TV. I know I’m considering it.

### 1/5 — No recordings access?

*2026-07-15, version 8.4.1*

I constantly get an error loading when I try to access any of my recordings on either of my DVR boxes. And I am inside the house on my FIOS Wi-Fi.

### 1/5 — Terrible glitchy app

*2026-07-15, version 8.4.1*

Always has errors

### 1/5 — A big problem

*2026-07-12, version 8.4.1*

Not a fan of Fios or the TV Mobile App since the number one reason I’d use my app would be to watch recordings, and in the many years we’ve had Fios I can never watch anything from my DVR recordings - always get an error message. Super disappointing.

### 1/5 — Could be better

*2026-07-12, version 8.4.1*

I constantly lose WiFi connection for no reason. It never works and I will switch to something else other than Verizon

### 1/5 — Lost Programs on DVR

*2026-07-11, version 8.4.1*

It’s frustrating that you can lose programs from your DVR settings because you are asked to change your Set Top Box.  Wish someone would have said that you would lose your programs on the DVR or at least offer a solution as to how the programs that are saved can be moved to a new STB.   It’s a shame.  Customers pay enough monthly for a service.  They should be able to keep their saved programs on the DVR settings regardless if you change the STB.

### 1/5 — Terrible service nn

*2026-07-09, version 8.4.1*

The service has been terrible for the past month or so. It keeps on going in and out even when using it at home which is totally unacceptable.

### 1/5 — Lost power during the World Cup and can’t record matches

*2026-07-07, version 8.4.1*

We have no power and this app won’t record the games. With all this technology and how much I pay Verizon every month, I should be able to record these games even if stored in the cloud that apparently we pay for that we never see.

### 1/5 — DVR STREAMING

*2026-07-03, version 8.4.1*

Too many glitches and customer service just keeps repeating themselves and it’s not getting fixed.

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2026-07-03, version 8.4.1*

Glitchy

### 1/5 — Long Time Customer and User

*2026-08-27, version 8.4.1*

Ive had this app for quite some time now and have never experience issues. However over the past 2 months since the update i have not been able to log in. It keeps send me an error message. Very unfortunate, I’ve deleted and redownloaded twice. It’s a dud don’t use it.

### 1/5 — Worse App and Service

*2026-08-22, version 8.4.1*

### 1/5 — Disgusted

*2026-08-19, version 8.4.1*

DVR is awful!  Not easy to use or figure out!  So sorry I chose Fios TV.  Thinking about getting rid of it. TV service is also bad. Most nights I get that circle.

### 1/5 — USELESS

*2026-08-15, version 8.4.1*

Verizon just keeps getting more expensive & the features suck. This app is useless! Can’t record anything. Can’t access anything. Constant error loading DVR. 👎🏻👎🏻

### 1/5 — Inconsistent service/ poor customer service

*2026-08-11, version 8.4.1*

It’s ridiculous that I pay so much for Verizon but can’t watch what I pay for on my phone. It’s also ridiculous that the pricing is never what is promised. Not happy at all.

### 1/5 — Removal of Download Feature For DVR Content

*2026-08-10, version 8.4.1*

Why did you take this feature away.  I don’t always have access to WyFy and I would like to download content which I have recorded.  It’s one of the reasons I wanted to upgrade,

*2026-07-25, version 8.4.1*

I can't be the only person getting the message "program failed to record" every time. Cannot find any solution.
