### 1/5 — Laggar

*2026-02-10*

Vet inte vad de gjort med appen? Har flera streaming appar som fungerar men SVT bara laggar!

### 4/5 — 한국에서 SVT보고있는 학생입니다

*2024-11-08*

화질 좀 고쳐주세요….

**Developer response:** 죄송하지만 한국어 지원은 제공되지 않습니다.

### 5/5 — Great !

*2021-12-31*

Great App and fantastic that SVT offer a lot of good content also outside of Sweden.

Would be great if this app would also let you download that same content for viewing offline and while travelling.

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for your feedback! /Märta

### 3/5 — Ja, Engelska tack!

*2020-06-02*

Pretty good, but as someone who am’s also not so familiars with the Swedish language, I also would like to see an English subtitles option!

### 1/5 — Apple TV

*2020-05-06*

Appen hänger sig varje eller varannan gång när man ska spela nästa avsnitt av ett program med någon text om att ett fel har uppstått. När ska ni fixa det så man inte behöver starta om appen och försöka 5-10 ggr innan man kan spela upp?

### 3/5 — Average

*2019-07-24*

Even though I do enjoy some of the programs. Most of the programs does not download and I do have a good reception. 
Also when I play a program I can not find what I am already watching. Is annoying.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2019-05-19*

I really love this app. I used it to watch the Eurovision Song Contest here in NYC and it worked perfectly the entire time I “mirrored” it with my Apple TV box.

### 1/5 — Extrem försämring

*2016-12-22*

Varför förstöra en väldigt snygg och lättnavigerad app? Ta genast bort minimeringsknappen som sticker i ögonen hela tiden och gör att jag inte ens kan/vill använda appen! Backa, backa...

### 1/5 — Was a great app, now no more than html5 wrapper.

*2012-09-13*

My 3 year old daughter could operate the app (1.0, 1.2) without help - not any more. There are so many extra clicks needed.
A child is a good test of interaction. This new app is not intuitive.
 
These were issues asked and detailed during the beta testing.
Who quality controlled this? Seriously. Disaster.

Min 3-åriga dotter kunde hantera er app utan hjälp – inte nu längre. Det krävs så många extra klick.
Ett barn är ett bra test av en fungerande interaktion. Denna nya appen är inte intuitiv.
 
Dessa frågor ställdes under beta-testningen.
Vem kvalitetskontrollerade det? Allvarligt. Katastrof!

### 2/5 — Crashes every time I try to watch Game of Thrones...

*2012-03-14*

It works for some short clips though
