Ratings and Reviews
Love it, but not Chromecast compatible
I actually miss having local news and channels, really the only thing I miss about having cable, but very disappointed I cannot cast this app to my tv and have to watch it from my phone (since I tend to be using my phone for other things whilst watching tv). Nonetheless I’ll be using this app everyday in the morning to catch up on weather and news and I’m very happy it’s free! The trending videos/important clips is a nice feature also. The layout is very clean and easy to navigate, haven’t had any buffering issues yet (whereas on my local news app it wouldn’t connect after commercials many times unless I restarted app). Please make this Chromecast compatible!
Very frustrating
After choosing my city, I decided to experiment to see how the app worked. I typed in the title of a show that was showing on one of the local channels to see if I could bring it up on my phone. Although it was showing at that very minute and a local channel was listed in the selection menu, the search engine gave me "no results". Totally ridiculous. Also, why would anybody make a Phone app without a BACK button? The only way to go back to a previous page is close the app. Also, the channels should be listed by channel number instead of being assigned some kind of ridiculous name so you can't tell what channel you are actually on.
Do not update from 1.1.3
This was an entertaining app through v1.1.3 but the developers removed compatibility with Apple’s Lightning -> HDMI adapter in v1.1.11. Bad enough that they deleted this very useful functionality but they kept it a secret.
I routinely (or at least I used to) watch STIRR TV output on my large display through a Lightning -> HDMI adapter and if the developers had been honest and announced they’d removed this capability I’d have happily stayed at v1.1.3. Instead they didn’t let us know and now the app is effectively useless as far as I’m concerned.
By the way, I’m using an official Apple adapter and not some unknown third party device so this not due to flaky hardware.
If you want to continue outputting your STIRR TV via HDMI do not install v1.1.11.
