Freeview

I love this Freeview app. While I wasn’t looking, it grew into this highly functional app that does exactly what I wanted - an on screen guide like the one on my TV and automatic launch of whatever player is needed (the players must be separately installed, but the app prompts you to do this). Meanwhile the other app I used to use descended into a buggy less functional mess with intrusive advertising- thank you for providing this alternative. My only complaint- it’s not available on Apple TV. I understand it would need a version developed for Apple’s TVoS, so please please consider doing this

Had all the other TV guide apps that started out good a few years back,when banner ads were all we had and a one off 59p fee usually rid you of those,then they started to change bringing in IAPs & subscriptions for a poor buggy service that will crash when you look at certain channels (etc) so one by one I stopped using them all - either using the what’s on now section in sky’s app or the tv’s on screen guide. I saw this so I thought I’d try it out,i was expecting more of the same bugs above but found a very clean and simple app that hasn’t crashed or left me wondering what’s on. It’s easy to use,tap twice to add a channel to favourites for a quick view of what on those channels,and then the usual grid view or list view & now & next etc. Almost like it’s info is beamed from your tv - Finally a simple guide app that is clear and easy to use,a little one or the elderly will have no trouble using it.

Submitted the review below and got a response for the developer the following day confirming an update with a fix. Very impressive response. The review below was submitted over a year ago but Freeview then managed to greatly improve. Unfortunately they have slipped back in to mediocrity and this all applies again now. This now runs fast and seamlessly but is distinctly lacking on information. About 90% of the programmes listed in the guide have no information about them attached when you click on the programme to go up a level for more details. This is all well and good when you are looking at a TV series and have a pretty good idea of what to expect but is about as much use as men’s t*ts when you are looking at say Film4 with the title of a movie given and absolutely nothing else. Give your heads a shake for gawds sake.
