Latest Version Not Good

I agree with some of the latest reviews I’ve seen, this latest update was not an improvement. Just the look and feel makes the app less user friendly and not as intuitive as the previous (Colors? Font? Functionality?). One pet peeve, why not make the Download list view the same as the recorded All Shows view? The vanilla Download view is an eyesore, and doesn’t contain enough information (such as the dates on the right hand side) to compare and determine what you’ve downloaded and what you have not. It takes a lot more analysis. And the list resets each time you go back to it, so you must scroll to the bottom for the latest downloads each time. The All Shows list is sorted the opposite, with latest recordings listed first. I agree, bring back the old interface please.

Could Use Improvement

I use this app on a daily basis. I bring my iPad with me wherever I go. I don’t like the fact that I can’t stream some of my shows due to flags set by the cable company, but I can live with that. I agree with others that downloads should appear the same as the my shows view. But I rarely have problems streaming shows, and on the rare occasion that a download fails, I delete the download and start it again.

Adding cellular download ability is great! My biggest complaint is that the app will not download while streaming or download in the background while using another app. I use several streaming apps and they all download in the background. Also, the buttons are too small for my big fat fingers. No reason to make them so small, and not give the user the ability to enlarge them. I think the developers are young, and don’t realize older disabled users have trouble with small tightly grouped buttons and fine print. Fix these issues and you get 5 stars from me.

Ever time it just seems to get worse

This app could used to be better. Problems: 1. when you set it up to record a program, even when you set it to not record duplicates, it records the same program twice; 2. connectivity is not great, difficult to watch shows as it often says it can’t connect even when you are a few feet away from the modem; 3. you can only transfer to an apple product; 4. often you have to manually update the app, it should do that automatically; 5. About every other month the app just quits, when you try to transfer recordings to an iPad it just gives you an error message saying it was unable to transfer, but provides no rationale or solution, so I end up having to delete the app and starts all over again which is very frustrating for someone who travels for work. You would think TIVOwould hire a team of computer engineers that could make an app
