Bugs Fixed
Used to have issues with the app randomly crashing, but all is good now. Very reliable app and user friendly.
Trash
App won’t even open. Wheel just spins on the loading page. When it did work was very buggy. Do better.
Awful Commentary/Bad quality
Update: quality is now terrible for the Asia swing. Continue to stream via a wired fiber connection and the quality is dismal and the app is insanely buggy. It is so frustrating to watch an hour of a match and then for it to go blank, freeze, and not come back online until later for the replay. Even the replays have huge technical issues. This is pathetic for 2026, imo. Not sure why it changed later in the year, but this app is miserable now.
The video feeds seem to be the same video feeds as Tennis TV (which is ATP only and no challenger coverage, and more expensive), but there is no way to watch without the horrendous Tennis Channel commentators. They are insufferable. Give me a way to watch matches without them (I like the ambient sound, so mute isn’t a great option).
Tennis channel app also has great use of split screen, showing up to four matches at once and allowing you to select which one gives audio as well.
The app appears to be slightly less quality in bit depth than Tennis TV (resolution is the same), and this is using a 2G fiber connection. But I am guessing at that because it’s not obvious. The quality of the video feed, at least with a very fast connection, is quite good.
Layout of the app is excellent. It gives a breakdown by court, which is much harder to find on Tennis TV. I much prefer the layout and organization of Tennis Channel for watching a current tournament (Tennis TV has every ATP match for past decades and it’s easy to intuitively find those).
But since I cannot stand the Tennis Channel’s commentators, I watch via Tennis TV (ATP’s direct service). Unfortunately, the commentators make me hate this app. I wish I could fire all of them (Jim Courier is fine), but that’s a joke, but I really do I could just switch off the commentary. If so, I would be a permanent subscriber.

Good ole reliable
I love how I can just open this app anywhere and watch live tennis. I’ve been a member for about 2 years, using it almost daily and I only remember it not working properly once or twice. 99% reliable, not to mention the fact that it’s a really fair price for how much live tennis they stream. I appreciate the other content they put out as well.

Look at the other sports apps and fix yours!
Cuts to commercial at deuce. Can’t rewind more than 30 minutes. Slow to post replays. Ad infinitum. Look at hbo. ESPN improved. Tennis tv improved a bit. You can fix it!
Mostly good but poor formatting
Have been subscribed to Tennis Channel for over a year and for the most part am happy with it as there are so many matches covered. There is the occasional glitch but it is not too common. One of my biggest issues is how we access the matches. To watch replays, for example, of a match we missed live, we have to scroll way down even past the winner interview... spoiler much! Is this a business decision and not a tennis fan decision?

Super awesome
You nasty dirty little sniffling creeps the disgusting commercials the things they’re allowed to say the things they’re allowed to describe like in these medical commercials you disgusting creeps you nasty little trash
Absolute Trash
It’s great if you want to watch a minute of a match before it crashes.
Literally Doesn’t even Show the US Open
What’s the point of a tennis channel if it doesn’t even air the biggest tennis tournament in the country?
All replays it suck’s
We’re to watch live tennis I’ve subscribed for tennis open but seems it’s not live. I want a refund please
CAB
App stops working and in order to reset you have to back out of the app and then you miss important plays. It’s been pretty frustrating this weekend.
Also, if you’re watching replay of matches and it stalls on you and you go out of the app, it starts the match all over again.

Awful
Just like Tennis Channel itself.
Abysmal app
The Tennis channel app is absolutely abysmal. Probably the worst app available amongst all the other services. It frequently crashes. -And even more often freezes. It lags. It makes signing in exceedingly difficult time and time and time again. If you want to watch Tennis on Tennis channel, it’s your only option but just so you know, it’s terrible.

Constant issues with streaming and audio sync
TC is one of the worst streaming services. Within a few seconds, without fail, the picture will start to jump around, jiggle, lose resolution, and Audi will be anywhere from 5-20+ seconds out of sync every time, even after correcting it by jumping forward or backwards 10 seconds. This what $77/yr gets you. Takes all of the enjoyment out of watching tennis. What a waste. And on top of that, I can’t login on another device to test or the website (invalid credentials, even after updating password). Absolutely ridiculous. I love tennis. It’s the only sport I watch, but the TC is terrible, including the interface, trying to watch/find matches, constant talking, and annoying advertisements and intermissions.

Good Quality
I saw there was a deal for $77 a year and i had to check it out. The quality on the lives are actually very solid. I also like how you have the 15 minute match replay’s on there for if you miss a match or two. All round solid streaming service and they also make funny instagram reels so i have to respect that too🫡🤣

Poor streaming
Lots of tennis, poor stream. Have tried it all - uninstall/reinstall, reboot Apple TV, etc. Still with choppy stream and audio/video lag. Fix this - it is not watchable.

50/50 chance stream works
When stream works, app good. When stream broken, app ripoff.
Streaming quality improved
After two years away from this app because of constant streaming interruptions, I see a deal for $77 per year and decided to sign up. After a brief learning curve, I securely activated my account on three streaming devices from my phone. So far, the streaming of matches is high quality and, as previously enjoyed, the lack of commentators for early rounds is still appreciated. Also, the previous streaming interruptions which plagued the app seem to have been resolved. While the slams are not covered on the app, which is understandable when giant like ESPN and HBO own those rights, I appreciate that lower level tournaments, i.e., 125s, and Challengers, are fully covered. Also, having three different lengths of replays for singles (full match and two different highlights) is wonderful for catching up. If this keeps up, I will probably renew next year and may even give a higher rating.

Worthless
This is my second bad review of the tennis channel app for Apple TV. I work from home using a VPN and VOIP because my job requires me to talk to customers for my entire shift. Even with a reliable 500 mbps internet connection, this app is still incredibly glitchy. I can’t even watch a full point without the audio and video stalling! What is the issue? I have read the troubleshooting guides, changed the video settings, deleted and reinstalled the app and nothing helps. It has been this way for years. When will the developers fix it?
