Functional but could use work

To developer: Please make the rudimentary Mac keyboard shortcuts work: Cmd+Q should quit the app rather than bringing up the search.

Means to an end, but wow it’s bare bones

Command+Q isn’t even working in this version, it brings up search. LOL.

Missing Samsung

This app could use work. I would give it 3.5 stars if it solved for the full ecosystem. Currently missing a Samsung TV version which is a BIG deal in my house. Samsung has a big slice of the TV market share. You can't ignore it

Zero stars. Junk app.

This app looks like it was written 20 years ago.

Just Works

Great product! I hooked it up to a ClearStream 4v antenna and I got 45 local channels automatically. Now I can watch local sports over the air. The app works on all my TVs via Apple TV and Roku and on my iPhone. If you get a good antenna and are in range of your local broadcasters you’ll be golden. I don’t understand why this app has a 2.5 rating!
