but i found mistake. with homepod airplay, v/a are not sync. can you fix it?

### 5/5 — Thank you for this awesome app.

*2020-01-17, version 3.4.2*

Now I can monitor my tvheadend from my iPhone. Developers you did awesome job. Thank you.

Requesting a feature: casting a channel to chromecast.

### 4/5 — Great, but please add the EPG.

*2019-12-27, version 3.4.1*

Thanks for making this app. A great job! Could you add the ability to navigate the whole EPG and not just the current program please?

### 5/5 — Easy and the best app

*2019-09-24, version 3.4.0*

Very good app seriously

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2019-05-15, version 3.3.2*

Love the app, thanks!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2018-09-05, version 3.3.1*

Great iOS thats with works just fine with tvheadend server on LAN or when I VPN into my home network. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2018-05-13, version 3.2.12*

This app has always been very reliable. Fast to load streams, customizable as far as stream settings go for those of us who like to tinker, but still easy enough to use as to not require it. I just wish they would chose a color to use on the top bar instead of having everything just white, it would make the app look a little more interesting.

### 5/5 — Is subtitle supported?

*2018-03-25, version 3.2.9*

I like this app and it works well

### 5/5 — vastly improved

*2017-10-15, version 3.2.1*

This has now quickly become my go-to app for watching live and recorded tv.  Seems to have got a lot more usable in the last few months (Oct 2017).

### 5/5 — Streaming live TV to the iPhone easily

*2017-07-23, version 2.7.10*

What a great piece of software that "just works". It's even more stable than using my Mac and VLC. Looks like I'll be buying an Apple TV just for this...

Update - July '17:
I bought an Apple TV for this. Paid for the app too. Absolutely great on TVH 4.2.2. Issues with scalability with 400+ channels (scrolling channel list, guide not loading), but otherwise great. 

Tip: 
If you build channel icons, 308x182 is optimal.

### 5/5 — Excelent!

*2017-06-22, version 2.7.10*

It works just as I expected. Simple, fast, and with the core features: connect to a TVHeadend server, play channels and display EPG information.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 2/5 — garbled code

*2024-09-20, version 4.0.2*

garbled code in English

### 2/5 — Totally different apps on AppleTV vs iPhone

*2024-06-30, version 4.0.2*

I’ve paid for the app, but the iPhone version lacks a ton of features available in the AppleTV version.

I just want a grid guide and to be able to see channel logos like a normal person…

Transparent logos are produced by TVH, so in dark mode I cannot see half the logos (black text on a black background can’t be read). Please give me the option to change the icon backgrounds on all formats of the app so I don’t have to futz with custom icons because of this half baked app in iOS.

### 2/5 — Subtitles don’t work

*2021-07-02, version 4.0.0*

The DVB subtitles don’t work on Internal VLC. It just stays on disable when I try to enable them. This needs fixing.

### 3/5 — Great app with annoying playback bug

*2021-04-26, version 4.0.0*

The internal VLC player has a bug where switching app or interacting with the system UI (control center, notifications, low battery) causes the video to go black. It can be restored by minimising the video (downward arrow at top left) then tapping the thumbnail.

### 3/5 — Chromecast?

*2021-01-16, version 4.0.0*

When will Chromecast support return? Can I go back to a previous version as currently it does not have the features I use anymore :-(

### 3/5 — The guide on Apple TV doesn’t work well

*2018-09-08, version 3.3.1*

It’s a good app but for the Apple TV app 1. The guide scrolls way to fast and also lags A LOT 2. You can’t watch a recording while recording it without having to reload it several times (from my experience)

### 3/5 — Better but can I have full screen?

*2018-01-06, version 3.2.5*

Works much better now, but I can’t seem to get full screen without the status bar of iOS 11 in the way across top of display.  This is on iPad Pro 9.7.

### 3/5 — Compatibility with tvheadend v4.2?

*2017-05-02, version 2.7.10*

Doesn't seem to be compatible with the epg from tvheadend v4.2? Most program titles come through as "null".

### 4/5 — Good app

*2022-08-12, version 4.0.0*

Really good app. Could do with iOS Picture in Picture and Chromecast support but otherwise all good.

### 4/5 — Good app with flaw

*2021-01-25, version 4.0.0*

Very good, only problem is when switching between apps the sound keeps going as it’s playing in background on returning to app the picture is blank. Similar happens when certain system dialogs appear while watching, sound continues but picture is blank, to get picture back you must select done to close channel and reopen channel.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2021-09-13, version 4.0.0*

App works great, thank you so much!!

### 5/5 — Bug Fixes Needed

*2021-07-12, version 4.0.0*

Good app but a few bugs sound plays in background when switching out of app but then a blank screen appears upon returning.

No Picture in Picture native iOS support.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-09-25, version 4.0.0*

Discovered this when I setup my first TVheadend server for watching the Football. Also, I purchased your TV App and it’s great! If you offered a premium for the iOS app also I would likely buy it also! Thanks for making it so incredibly easy to watch my TV stations from a mobile.

### 5/5 — Disregard my previous comment!

*2020-09-07, version 4.0.0*

Works great on both iPad and iPhone.

### 5/5 — iPad 2 Problems

*2020-07-21, version 4.0.0*

I know my iPad 2 is getting on a bit but software keeps crashing when trying to watch recording of SD TV, works fine with playback of live SD TV. Will still give it 5 stars as works great on iPhone 7 watching and setting up recordings

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2020-07-05, version 4.0.0*

5* Great and easy to use app.

### 5/5 — TVHeadend must have app!

*2020-06-29, version 3.4.2*

If you have TVHeadend running you simply must try this on IOS. Clean intuitive interface.  This is my go to now! Great. Cheers👍
