Great for NFL Sundays

I live in CT just inside the 100 mile geofence, and now I can get extra games when the Boston station is showing a different game from the Hartford station. Also can get the Pats game from a local channel if they’re on a cable network or streaming service.

Incredible. What a gift this is for Mass residents.

Incredibly useful when FiOS and Fox are bickering. Tested the Google TV and Apple TV apps. They work incredibly well. Thank you LocalTV+ devs.

Excellent app for TV

Easy to use, reliable, and with lots of channels from the Boston market. Works in a nice radius from the city. The developer is friendly and open about development and communication.

Great for those without antennae

Didn’t want to commit to an antenna and this app has been so great! I could just cast directly to tv/Mac. Have been able to watch World Cup matches on FOX and Telemundo. Only suggestions I have is to be able to add favorite channels so I don’t have to scroll down as much and to have a Mac app so I can just HDMI instead of using my phone all the time. Surprisingly the app isn’t heavy as phone doesn’t heat up at all during usage.

Awesome!

This app is the reason I was able to watch Drake Maye play. Plus captions! Love it. No notes.
