### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2023-12-09, version 1.5.5*

Stellt keine Verbindung her, trotz des selben Netzwerkes

### 1/5 — No data found

*2020-10-24, version 1.5.5*

Thinks there’s no data on my phone, so I can’t cast to the device. Pointless.

### 1/5 — Unbrauchbarer Schrott

*2020-06-30, version 1.5.5*

Nur Löschen hilft weiter!

### 1/5 — Utter Rubbish

*2020-05-10, version 1.5.5*

Completely useless

### 4/5 — Works Quite Well.

*2020-04-09, version 1.5.5*

I like the fact I can watch my recordings on my iPad while my wife watches the tv, seems to work quite well.

### 1/5 — Won’t play

*2019-06-22, version 1.5.5*

Unable to play any recordings downloaded to iPhone
Play option is greyed out or not there.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2019-05-10, version 1.5.5*

Never worked

### 1/5 — Come on Humax!

*2018-11-12, version 1.5.5*

Humax used to be great but their products have gone downhill big time. Our FPV-4000T has been a massive disappointment, mainly because it's so slow. This app doesn't work at all! The alleged streaming feature is completely absent. Downloading is the only option which takes ages and then won't play anyway. Complete waste of time.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t see FreeSat box

*2018-07-06, version 1.5.4*

My iPad and FreeSat box are on the same network but this app won’t detect it - please avoid this bad software.

### 1/5 — Possibly the worst app I have encountered

*2018-03-19, version 1.5.4*

It recognised my FVP 4000 but not my HDR 2000. It would not stream from the FVP but instead tried to download the file and failed. Then it could not see the FVP at all.  Humax should be ashamed to release such rubbish.
