Worse than LiveBarn!

Like an expensive version of LiveBarn but with fewer options and less reliability!

Can’t zoom in so only way to find players by number is to watch it in landscape. If watching on landscape, recording controls disappear. Makes getting highlight clips virtually impossible. It does let you “mark” a segment that you’d like to find to record but the above and below issues prevent it.

Can’t advance in increments, only option is a slide bar. When advancing with the slide bar, the video doesn’t advance so you don’t know where you are until you stop.

No panoramic view option. Only way to watch is with camera following action. Needless to say any action ahead or or behind the pack can be out of camera view.

Unfortunately anywhere they use this, they lock out LiveBarn users. I guess if this is the only option to watch your kid play, open your wallet and prepare to be annoyed/disappointed.

Horrible

Can’t watch the full game it continues to freeze frame and also boot you out of the app in the middle of a game
Save your money and don’t buy hockey tv
Rating 1/4 star

Extremely disappointed!

I made the mistake of subscribing for a year, thinking I’d save some cash. I blame myself for not reading the reviews before starting a subscription.

Trying to watch the games I actually wanted to watch was difficult. I thought I was watching what I wanted and later found out it was actually a year old game (and I used ‘today’ as my filter.

The sound, and at times, the video, cut out on me, and then the whole feed froze on me.

I cancelled my subscription and was told that I could not receive a refund-the beat they could offer me was to turn off auto renewal.

Hopelessly incompetent and way overpriced

I signed up to watch a game that had the wrong rink #, wrong teams on the score graphic in the top left and was labeled as two different teams from who was playing. I have a picture of all this but they won’t let me post a pic. It wasn’t even a technical issue it was just inefficiency on their end. Buyer beware and do not sign up they will take no responsibility for their own incompetence. I requested a refund and this was their response:

I understand that you're requesting a refund for a technical issue with a broadcast. We apologize for the technical difficulties you experienced. We are working with the team and the arena to mitigate these difficulties in the future.

“After carefully reviewing your case, I’ve determined that your purchase doesn't meet the conditions for a refund. HockeyTV offers no warranty, neither express nor implied, on the availability, quality, or deliverability of content. In addition to this policy, there has been continued viewing use of the account”

Good app with minor issues

All in all, it’s a good app. Sure, sometimes there are connection issues or audio issues, and while they can be frustrating, it is not very often they occur. Can’t think another app providing live updates on penalties/scores, etc., (if watching from a computer). Sure, there are similar apps like LiveBarn, but HockeyTV is one of the better ones out there - and one of the more expensive ones too, so there is that.
