This company either needs to get help from their competitors or step aside for a competitor to take it’s place. It will work fine then suddenly shutdown and not reconnect for weeks! ### 1/5 — Does not work *2022-10-30, version 4.6.2* Does not connect to any boxes at the house. Can’t view any shows at all on my phone. ### 1/5 — Crashes TiVo every time *2022-10-01, version 4.6.2* This app is horrible! Every time that I launch the app it crashes my TiVo. ### 1/5 — Totally Useless *2022-09-20, version 4.6.2* All this app does is tell you that you can only watch programs on the TV or link you to a non-mediacom site (Prime for example) where you can watch it there. TOTALLY USELESS! Don’t bother. ### 1/5 — This App is not useful ! *2022-09-08* I downloaded the app and deleted the app after a week. It’s useless! First of all, you have to be connected to your “home” WiFi to see your recorded shows . Secondly, the app shows you a list of various shows that are “available” but when you click on a show or movie NOTHING happens even when you are connected to your home WiFi. I literally see all of the episodes available for viewing but can’t get them to play. Then there are those that I can see listed BUT I have to have Prime Video to watch . Umm , there is a Prime Video app so if I wanted to watch a Prime show why would I even need the Extreme app. They should trash this app and start over because it is useless . ### 1/5 — What’s this for? *2022-06-08, version 4.6.2* I confused Xtream TV Everywhere with this mobile app. No connection whatsoever! Trying to get this to work I always get an error message saying I am signed in but no valid TV account is found. Customer service said you must have a Mediacom TiVo, then tech support said you don’t. Further reading seem to require you to be on your home network. Why would I want to stream to a mobile device at home? I give up. ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2022-05-22, version 4.6.2* Sometimes the app works but most the time it doesn’t. The last few weeks if someone is watching tv and I attempt to launch the app, the TiVo box resests itself, which takes over 5 minutes. Also, if I tape a show, then watch via the app, the sound goes out for 5 to 10 seconds every 5 minutes. It is VERY ANNOYING. ### 1/5 — Stay away from Mediacom hacks *2022-04-29, version 4.6.2* Everything involved with them is so completely stupid. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2022-04-16, version 4.6.2* Logged on and says logged in but can’t watch, or do anything with the app. ### 1/5 — Horrible app! *2022-04-12, version 4.6.2* Have experienced intermittent issues using this over past 2 years. Now it has become even worse! Every time I launch the app, it asks me to log in, then tries to connect to the box and fails. At that point, the TiVo box ends up rebooting itself, which takes 4-5 minutes before TV service is back. Have tried deleting the app from my iPad and reinstalled, with same results. Time to be ditching mediacom and getting a different provided! This, along with their steady rate increases, has crossed my red line. 😕 ### 1/5 — Really bad *2022-03-20, version 4.6.2* This app should be renamed mediacrap ### 1/5 — Not good *2021-11-27, version 4.6.2* Do not get can’t watch any sports ### 1/5 — Terrible *2021-10-24, version 4.6.2* Terrible App. Terrible company. Why do i pay these people. ### 1/5 — Totally worthless *2021-10-04, version 4.6.2* What I am writing is probably nothing new to anyone that has downloaded and tried to watch something with this app. No wonder its ratings average 1.6 out of 5. Anyway here it goes. Even most - if not all - the open air channels are not allowed on this app. ### 1/5 — Can not stream LIVE *2021-09-19, version 4.6.2* Why can’t this stream live? This makes this app worthless. ### 1/5 — Totally useless *2021-09-11* I was told that I could stream remotely from my iPad using this app like I was able to with my prior ISP Spectrum. However, nothing works on this app. I called customer service and they actually recommended using other methods such as utube tv to stream!! Why would I pay twice for the same service…I couldn’t get her to understand why this be ridiculous. Admittedly, once you read the description on the app itself, it does say within your home….again, pretty much useless. The second that our small town has another ISP, I will change over. I sure miss Spectrum! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. *2021-05-17* Literally the most pointless app. It doesn’t work unless you are connected to your home wifi. The whole reason I wanted it was so that I could watch my shows when I was away from home. I asked mediacom customer service why anyone would even want this if they have to be at home to watch it anyway so you could just go watch your shows on tv? Stupid. It won’t even play my shows when I’m connected to my wifi. ### 1/5 — Would give 0 if I could. Changing to another cable co. *2021-04-17, version 4.6.2* Wow just got additional programming to add to our lineup. Then the app never works like it used to. Used to be great! Just canceling this after one month, RIP OFF Someone said, mediacom wants to show they have this great app, PLEASE UPDATE YOUR APP. Maybe it’s time to turn these jokers in to a higher up. This is not acceptable to anyone who uses mobile devices. Fix it ### 1/5 — Fix this App! *2021-03-28* Mediacom advertises that you can use this app to watch live TV record shows and play them back but it doesn’t work 90% of the time every time I go to playback a show I get a message error saying I’m not allowed to watch TV outside of my home when I’m inside my home ### 1/5 — Won’t stay connected *2021-03-04, version 4.4.3* Works fine once you get it working but spend most time trying to connect and reconnect to system. Also, it will not let me stream while away from at home. They need to make significant improvements to the functionality. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Mobile app *2025-02-19, version 4.9.203* Not mobile ### 1/5 — BALDERDASH *2024-12-26* What is this? Another app from the same developer!😞 , Is this really an app! It's just an emoji, ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-03-06* Lets me sign in but won’t accept it. Says I am signed in but don’t have an account?!?! That makes absolutely no sense. So in reality mediacom/ xtream lies to their custmers when they say you can download the app and stream shows from your tablet or other device. ### 1/5 — Worthless *2024-01-23, version 4.9.109* This app is completely useless. Does not work most of the time and does not work ever unless you’re at home on your own WiFi. What exactly is the point here of having this? ### 1/5 — Invest in improving performance *2023-09-22, version 4.8.5* It would be wonderful if this app could work more than 3 nights in a row. Babysitting MediaCom and this app is exhausting. ### 1/5 — For a cable company, they need new employees… Sorry *2023-08-05, version 4.8.5* I do not understand at all, how an Internet company as big as Mediacom is along with Cable and everything else, has such horrible, horrible apps for us to use! This app is extremely useless. Besides, the most annoying thing, is I have to login every single freaking time I open up the app… There is no need for me to have to type in my password every time I login, especially when the box is checked to stay, logged in! I can only use this app in my home, so if someone wants to steal my phone and go think they can watch anything outside of my home that is not near my TiVo box, then they need to work for Mediacom! Please fix this horrible app! ### 1/5 — What good is it for *2023-06-09, version 4.8.5* The app is useless if you can’t use it away from home. Waste of time to download. ### 1/5 — Worthless as a streaming app if you travel *2023-06-08* Other TV providers offer apps so you can stream your programming, that you are paying for, wherever you are, and on whoever’s internet you are connected. Not Mediacom. They require you to be connected to your Mediacom Wi-Fi. You can’t go to the neighbors and use their Wi-Fi. You certainly can’t be in a hotel somewhere and stream the cable you pay for on this app. And you can’t use a different internet provider at all. It’s only meant as a way for you to not run a cable through your house, but you have to have Mediacom internet for it to work. ### 1/5 — 👎👎👎 *2023-05-04, version 4.8.5* This app is broken or a scam the verification email went into my spam because it was Sus do not download this app!!!! ### 1/5 — Mobile app *2023-02-23, version 4.8.5* Does not work trying to log into the app via iPhone the last two weeks. It just spins and spins. Fix your freaking app so I can pay my bill ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works *2020-10-02, version 4.4.3* Works great now thanks!! ### 5/5 — Love it!! *2018-06-05* Took a moment to connect but boom! I’m scheduling my shows from the road and taking them with me to watch on my flight. Love that I can live stream to my tablet and watch the game when I’m grilling out. ### 3/5 — Have to close and reopen app at least daily to be able to stream! *2019-08-09* When it works, it’s great! But I’ve discovered that about daily I have to close the app (slide window off screen on iPad) and then reopen from the original icon (not the one on most recent line). I hope you can get this fixed soon. Haven’t tried this away from home so I’ll see how that goes... ### 2/5 — Disappointing *2018-04-14* I spend more time trying to connect or reconnect my connection to my home system. It’s not worth my time. Plus, I was told I would be able to stream anywhere, it will only allow me if I’m at home. Why would I want to stream on my phone if I have my TV available? ### 2/5 — Not working for me *2018-02-14* Overall the first time I was actually able to sign in, it was working well loved the entirety of the app, however after I stopped using it for the night I have not been able to log back in, I am entering my password correct and it just well let me press the sign in button and then just goes right back to wanting me to sign in again, tried uninstalling the app, no luck, changed passwords no luck, and there isn’t a way to report a bug issue over through that app or sign in page, so just frustrating after it was working, so 2 stars right now, if I can get my issue fixed would be a lot more --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
