### 2/5 — Nearly

*2026-07-11, version 1.0*

I’ve had this app for a good few years now. Originally it was quite good but lately it’s just terrible unable to log on wrong channels on other channels, to be honest I’m thinking of leaving

### 2/5 — Iptv

*2026-06-07, version 1.0*

Very slowly loading up lately, I don’t know if there’s something gone wrong with it

### 3/5 — Purchase with caution

*2026-04-05, version 1.0*

Like many others have mentioned, it’s frustrating to have to pay twice for an app simply because of updates from developers or iOS requirements. There’s no support from Apple to prevent such actions from happening. As for the app itself, I’ve had no issues since it first released years ago.

### 4/5 — Not very user friendly.

*2026-03-26, version 1.0*

The app could use some tutorials to help users understand its functionality rather than having to figure it out over time.

### 2/5 — Outside WiFi network this app is worthless

*2026-03-07, version 1.0*

Not good. It is been years without an update

### 4/5 — Sehr guter Player mit Verbesserungspotenzial

*2026-02-22*

Ich nutze die App seit vielen Jahren regelmäßig und bin grundsätzlich sehr zufrieden. Sie ist übersichtlich, stabil und erfüllt ihren Zweck zuverlässig. Ich habe sie sogar zweimal gekauft, weil sie zwischenzeitlich nicht mehr im App Store verfügbar war. Das zeigt, dass ich wirklich von der App überzeugt bin.

Gerade deshalb möchte ich zwei Punkte ansprechen, die aus meiner Sicht noch verbessert werden sollten. Eine Hintergrundwiedergabe oder eine Bild in Bild Funktion wäre eine große Bereicherung. Es wäre sehr hilfreich, wenn man während des Streamens kurz Nachrichten beantworten oder E Mails lesen könnte, ohne dass die Wiedergabe stoppt. Das würde den Nutzungskomfort deutlich erhöhen.

Außerdem kommt es gelegentlich vor, dass die M3U Playlist nicht sofort geladen wird und null Kanäle angezeigt werden. In solchen Fällen muss man die Playlist mehrfach neu öffnen, bis die Verbindung schließlich aufgebaut wird. Das funktioniert am Ende zwar, ist aber unnötig umständlich. Hier wäre eine technische Optimierung wünschenswert.

Wenn diese Punkte noch verbessert werden, wäre die App aus meiner Sicht nahezu perfekt. Ich hoffe sehr, dass die Entwickler dieses Feedback als konstruktive Unterstützung verstehen, denn das Potenzial der App ist definitiv vorhanden.

### 4/5 — Im Hintergrund

*2026-02-22*

Stream sollte man auch im Hintergrund laufen lassen können

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-02-12, version 1.0*

I’ve used this app for multiple years now and it’s hands down the best. 
Are a couple of things though- I’ve now had to pay for the pro version twice as it randomly disappears and you need to download the new version. 
Older version you were able to run it in the background with shows continuing to play but unable to do so now.

### 3/5 — Slowly

*2026-02-10, version 1.0*

Slowly white data

### 2/5 — Need MiniPlayer Picture in Picture.

*2026-02-01, version 1.0*

It’s 2026 and still no MiniPlayer. Unfortunately as soon as you open another app Gse stops playing. YouTube and many other apps allow for you to still watch their app whilst you have open another app so why has Gse not enabled this?. Once this feature is added then this is an easy 5star app.

### 4/5 — Picture in Picture

*2026-01-15, version 1.0*

Really like the interface. Only thing missing is no PIP and or background playing with the updated version . Hope the developers can add this back in

### 2/5 — Good app. But why did I have to buy it again?

*2025-12-19, version 1.0*

I already bought this. Why did I have to buy it again. 

Note for the developer. I will not be buying this a third time. Just be aware. I urge everyone else to also tell them this.

### 4/5 — Great

*2025-12-11, version 1.0*

Very good

### 2/5 — Bad connection

*2025-11-27, version 1.0*

TV is always buffering

### 1/5 — Doesn’t support Chromecast

*2026-08-08, version 1.0*

States Chromecast support, no such option exists, maybe it does on an iPhone from a decade ago, who knows.

### 1/5 — Great up but needs to be updated

*2026-08-04, version 1.0*

I’ve been using this app for years, and it’s probably the best IPTV app out there. It’s reliable, easy to use, and has consistently been my go-to choice. The only downside is that it doesn’t receive updates very often. More frequent updates and ongoing improvements would make an already excellent app even better.

### 1/5 — App stopped working-invalid support contact

*2026-08-03, version 1.0*

After purchasing the premium app and it working fine for months, the app suddenly shuts down when trying to update service. Reached out to support and email bounced back.

### 1/5 — Ahhhhhhhh

*2026-07-01, version 1.0*

It's OK, except for the fact that it logs me out all the time nonstop

### 1/5 — Don’t buy

*2026-06-19, version 1.0*

Not sure if you could still purchase pro.  If you can stay away from no support available.  Ghost developer

### 1/5 — بطي

*2026-05-29, version 1.0*

بطي جداء جداء

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

*2026-03-22*

This is a rip off . Please don’t download

### 1/5 — Outdated big time!!!

*2026-03-01, version 1.0*

Although the App got a very stable engine, it is outdated big time when it comes to UI and origination.

### 1/5 — App falso

*2026-02-20*

Não transmite no chromecast, app enganoso

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-11-23, version 1.0*

### 5/5 — Très bonne app

*2026-04-27*

Je l’utilise depuis beaucoup d’années ça fonctionne super bien c’est juste que depuis des années n’a étais amélioré avec le temps car aujourd’hui les choses se modernise 
Un autre point qui me retiens c’est dans la voiture connectée en bluetooth le son pas compatible on peut pas augmenter diminuer le volume depuis la commande voiture alors que les autres app ça fonctionne c’est des détails comme ça qui faudrait les mètres a jours avec le temps car la technologie avance et améliorer un peut l’interface modernisé tous ça

*2025-12-17, version 1.0*

Extremely simple and efficient!

### 5/5 — Best IPTV App

*2025-11-14, version 1.0*

I bought this app 2 years ago. So far, the best IPTV app I’ve found. It has a steep learning curve. Records my shows, save my favorites, etc. If you only knew the potential of this app.

### 5/5 — Best

*2025-11-02, version 1.0*

Only app I use, I tried meny  but this is the best

### 5/5 — Excellent player

*2025-10-29, version 1.0*

The search and EPG functions work very well. This is far better than the original player I chose for a lot less money

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2025-10-19, version 1.0*

Is there any updates due
