### 1/5 — There is no sound

*2020-04-14*

No, this is not a problem with the sound button on the left side of my device. You have an audio issue. I work in IT. You have an audio problem. Your “fix” is just bad advice.

**Developer response:** We will fix a problem with sound soon

### 1/5 — アプリの意味なし！

*2020-03-27*

民放は入ってない！

**Developer response:** 次のバージョンでは、チャネルの数を永久に拡大しています。

### 1/5 — poor listing of live broadcast

*2019-04-09*

I downloaded with the expectation there will be some channels to watch for learning Japanese but turned out that NHK is in English and poor channels existing. Do not download

**Developer response:** We permanently expand the number of supported channels in every next version - please, always follow the current app version in App Store

### 1/5 — No audio

*2018-11-08*

App seems to be broken. No audio.

**Developer response:** Problem is in the sound control (on the left side of device). If it is turned off, the sound doesn't work in a whole application. To re-enable it back, please turn it on

### 1/5 — No Volume

*2018-07-04*

There is no sound to the stream and I do not have it muted.  I tried multiple channels.

**Developer response:** Problem is in the sound control (on the left side of device). If it is turned off, the sound doesn't work in a whole application. To re-enable it back, please turn it on

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-12-01*

All channels either direct to YouTube, a paid service, or simply don’t work. The screen immediately turns black and app crashes

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2024-05-25*

*2023-11-03*

Just few channel inside…😭

### 1/5 — Absolute garbage

*2022-01-28*

A bunch of clips , not TV , really and every other click brings up an ad.   You’re better off just using YouTube

**Developer response:** Placing of ads does not depend from app - it depends from owners of TV programs

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2021-10-07*

Don’t know what this is for.  The app only links to the websites.  There is nothing to watch, don’t mention about TV.

**Developer response:** According to logs, you have faced with accidental temporary error. We checked TV and can inform you it works well again without any troubles

### 1/5 — 騙された

*2021-08-16*

みなさんも気をつけてください、このアプリ番組のウェブサイトに飛ばされるだけで、全然民放などのチャンネルがありません。

**Developer response:** ログによると、あなたは偶発的な一時的なエラーに直面しています。 私たちはテレビをチェックしました、そしてそれが問題なく再びうまくいくことをあなたに知らせることができます

### 1/5 — Very limited

*2021-06-11*

This app is extremely limited in what it offers. This isn’t actual programs but appears to be clips (2-3 minutes).  Some of the offered programs “aren’t found” when you click them. Overall not worth downloading.

**Developer response:** Some channels and programs are not available in separate countries. Unfortunately, geolocation restrictions do not depend of app - it depends of the content owners. We recommend you to change App Store to your local one

### 1/5 — 使えん

*2020-08-16*

なにこれ

**Developer response:** アプリを永続的に改善して、ユーザーが次のバージョンに向くように改善します。AppStoreで現在のアプリのバージョンを確認してください

### 1/5 — 使ってる意味ない

*2020-05-20*

日本語は対応していません！

**Developer response:** 次のバージョンごとに、サポートされる言語の数を永久に拡大します.

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2021-04-13*

Heyo I see a lot of people had sound problems, when I did all I had to do was mute and unmute the sound, just check thoroughly before putting a bad review

**Developer response:** Absolutely right! Many thanks for your great feedback

### 4/5 — No audio

*2019-03-05*

No audio to any of the streams

**Developer response:** Problem is in the sound control (on the left side of device). If it is turned off, the sound doesn't work in a whole application. To re-enable it back, please turn it on

### 3/5 — 惜しい！

*2020-04-25*

僕の大好きなNHKが入っているのは、良いけど、日本のテレビ局を増やして欲しいです、あと他のテレビ局は日本語だけど、NHKだけ英語なんだけど。日本語にして欲しいですね、

**Developer response:** 次のバージョンでは、チャンネルの数を永久に拡大しています。

### 2/5 — Very limited

*2023-01-21*

This app does not have the Japanese NHK channel. It has NHK World, which is in English. The only other channels that work are shopping channels.

I noticed there is no sound if my ringer is off.  I neeed to turn on my ringer in order to hear the audio.

**Developer response:** We permanently expand the number of supported channels in every next version - please, always follow the current app version in App Store
