Wouldn’t recommend *2026-08-22, version 1.4.1* Will not let you write a review less than 2 stars- appalling ### 4/5 — Muy mala la señal se corta demasiado y el servicio al cliente no responden *2026-08-22, version 1.4.1* Muy mala señal ### 2/5 — Content *2026-08-17, version 1.4.1* It would appear a large amount is not now available after a reset. Tried again today and the same again ### 5/5 — Great TV options *2026-08-17, version 1.4.1* Had a little problem at first getting it to log onto my TVs got the bugs worked out really like it able to watch many different shows without the big expense of cable or Dish ### 5/5 — Jehsidbhfusu *2026-08-17, version 1.4.1* La app y el plan de TV y las listas m3u están echando humo una delicatesse ### 3/5 — Émission/serie *2026-08-16, version 1.4.1* Je ne trouve pas mon émission sur ma tablette mais je la trouve sur la télé pouvez vous m’aider l’émission est (The rookie/la recrue) ### 2/5 — Was Good *2026-08-16, version 1.4.1* Up until today I really liked this app on my iPad but now I am just frustrated!! When I chose something to watch on my streaming service, ad comes on and you cannot get it to go off! I have now listened to the ad 6 times and cannot get it off the screen. I have forced the app closed each time. Rebooted everything and it remains on! They are trying to force you to upgrade to a premium version and pay ### 5/5 — Bien *2026-08-16, version 1.4.1* Bientôt ### 2/5 — Buffering *2026-08-16, version 1.4.1* Keeps buffering ### 5/5 — Stopped working *2026-08-15, version 1.4.1* It worked perfecty for few months. And it gives error now, I cannot use the app and I cannot reach app support. ### 4/5 — Good but needs some features *2026-08-15, version 1.4.1* I like the app and it works out fine but it would be nice to be able to swipe up and have a minimized Picture in Picture on the iPhone. It’s pretty standard for players and shouldn’t be difficult to add. The stream was skipping till I switched the stream format to HLS. Also would be nice if there were more stream description in the live guide but now sure if that’s because of the iptv. ### 5/5 — amazing *2026-08-15, version 1.4.1* life saver ### 3/5 — O straight show *2026-08-15, version 1.4.1* I do not get a consistent show without stoppages ### 5/5 — Super *2026-08-15, version 1.4.1* Nice ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unusable due to adverts *2026-08-21, version 1.4.1* The pop up ads make it so you cannot watch content. Instead the Adverts stay stuck on the screen making it unusable. I’ll be switching to another app after years of using this one. Such as shame. ### 1/5 — EPG never loads *2026-08-20, version 1.4.1* Been using this for years. I have several playlists. I update the playlists manually when I open the app. There is no EPG for several weeks now. It’s like it’s broken. My Xtream codes for the playlists haven’t changed. I see the channels loading for each playlist, but no EPG. What’s going on? ### 1/5 — Se frisa mucho la app *2026-08-19, version 1.4.1* Se frisa mucho la app no se conecta fácilmente con otros equipos es complicado encontrar los canales y no tiene buena coneccion y tiene pésima guía muy complicada ### 1/5 — So laggy *2026-08-18, version 1.4.1* Laggy ### 1/5 — Complaint *2026-08-18, version 1.4.1* The app is good in terms of its layout and organization, but I have a complaint. Over the past two months, the app has become so bad that, unfortunately, I’ve started to hate watching my favorite shows and movies. It has become difficult to watch and stay focused and actually enjoy the experience. There are ads before opening every video, and once the video starts, if I skip forward 10 seconds, it restarts from the beginning. I then have to drag the progress bar manually, only to be surprised that it starts over from the beginning again. I believe there is a technical issue that needs to be looked into and fixed. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore *2026-08-15, version 1.4.1* If I could give 0 star I would, it says authentication failed, invalid user and the other BS, never plays anything you want.. always has playback error nonsense appearing. Someone get back to me asap ### 1/5 — Poor *2026-08-14, version 1.4.1* Freezes a lot. I thought it is problem with my provider but it’s this app. The adverts are annoying ### 1/5 — To many adds *2026-08-14, version 1.4.1* To many adds now and channels always not working and buffering especially the adult channels ### 1/5 — Paid Premium features don’t work. *2026-08-13, version 1.4.1* Paid for premium so that I could cast to my television. Feature does not work. I was scammed. ### 1/5 — Can’t close ads, rendering the app unusable *2026-08-13, version 1.4.1* Won’t give an option to close ads, even after closing app and restarting it gives the same ad continuously, rendering the app unusable. Had a good run though, RIP ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good quality *2026-08-22, version 1.4.1* Good quality ### 5/5 — رائع جدا *2026-08-22, version 1.4.1* ممتاز ### 5/5 — Pretty poor *2026-08-22, version 1.4.1* Pain in the arse at times. ### 5/5 — The best app *2026-08-22, version 1.4.1* Super this app is the best ### 5/5 — Excellent Application *2026-08-21, version 1.4.1* This is a great application.
