Join thousands of Australians who downloaded IceTV’s SmartGuide app as their preferred on-the-go TV guide and PVR set-to-record for iOS. With the IceTV app you can see what’s on TV for the week ahead, search for shows; set keywords and favourites; create your own personalised TV guide called ‘My Week’ for easy reading of all your TV preferences, and much more. With an IceTV subscription combined with an ‘IceTV Enabled’ PVR you can take all the pain out of discovering new shows, programming and managing your recordings. Plus you can do it using the app from anywhere in the world! See: www.icetv.com.au Australia. Alternatively, just use the free features in our app. Free Features: A full 7 days EPG for Australian free-to-air TV (excepting advertorial channels). Comprehensive coverage of metro and regional areas in Australia. Keyword Search – search for favourite shows, actors, directors and genres and, if you like, turn them into displayed keyword favourites within the TV guide. Favourites – display your favourite TV shows in the TV guide when they are on. My Week - create your own personalised, easy-to-view TV guide. New Series - We list new seasons of shows so you find them ahead of time. Most Popular - see what shows are popular with other users. Recommended - an IceTV weekly 'IcePick' of our recommended shows. For those with paid IceTV subscriptions and a compatible Personal Video Recorder (PVR), or PC/Mac recording device, it gets even better. In addition to the above features you can schedule Single or Series Recordings and Keyword Recordings on your recorder at home or while you are on the move, straight from the app. You'll never need to tediously scroll through a TV screen EPG again to find the shows you want to record. Then our cloud-based recording management will ensure the shows are recorded whenever they are aired, even if they change networks, time slots or even reword their title. We do our best to ensure ‘You’ll never miss that show again’. ** Please note ** IceTV requires a quick & easy registration - even if you’re just using the free features of our app. This is so you can use our website with your own account “Guide Settings” to select and deselect channels displayed on the app so that we can provide the correct TV guide data to your region. And to ensure our proprietary EPG data is used securely on your mobile device. ## Key features - 7-day Australian TV guide - Show search by keyword - Personalized 'My Week' guide - New series alerts - Remote PVR recording - Cloud-based recording management ## Recent user reviews (10 of 53) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/icetv-tv-guide/id1050039441/reviews.md ### 2/5 — What’s happening Folks? *2024-07-19, version 3.1* I have been with ICE Tv for many happy years now, easy to use and always reliable until recently. Three times now the App has died, with no Guide coming up..only showing a message ‘Preparing to refresh new data’ with a main heading ‘No Guide Data’ please wait…well I wait and wait and eventually give up…Eventually it did come back on, but today it’s off again…Any suggestions ICE? ### 1/5 — What have you done? *2024-07-17, version 3.1* Loves this app for years, latest upgrade and nothing works at all. Get “no guide data” and that’s all. No way of contacting them, so this is all I can do…. ### 4/5 — Good app *2023-09-05, version 2.66* Really like this app. Would like it to include the tv channel as well. ### 2/5 — Used to be good *2023-08-18, version 2.66* August 2023: app now quits on opening in both iPad Pro and iPhone. Used to be a great app… ### 3/5 — Too much grey space for time *2022-10-05, version 2.66* Used to be 5star, apart from occasional crashes. Now the latest update has too much vertical grey space for the time. It is difficult to find the shows as the screen is full of grey space’d time.😳 ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2022-01-23, version 2.65* This app quits after you enter email and password. Closed up completely. ### 1/5 — Needs update *2021-07-03, version 2.60* This app won't load on my iPad. It says the developer needs to update it to run on the latest version of iOS. It is working on my iPhone. ### 1/5 — requires account *2021-06-29, version 2.60* also contains google spyware ### 5/5 — TV Matters *2021-02-14, version 2.50* This is my go to application for finding my favourite programs. ### 5/5 — Thank you *2021-02-10, version 2.50* Fantastic app I would be lost with out it 👍👍 ## Frequently asked questions about IceTV ### What does the IceTV app do?
