IPTV Streamer Max

I loved this app when I first got it, some 2ish years ago. It was the best and most reliable I’d found on the market. Since then, however, it’s gone buggy to an alarming degree. Without further ado, below are some of the things that bother me: 1. There is no contact information nor help option within the app (which is why I’m writing a review instead – sending a message / asking for help the only way there is to do so). 2. You can’t edit your login details; you have to delete the entire entry and start from scratch. 2a. AND - after deleting, you have to power cycle the device to make the old login actually go away. 3. You *can* create playlists under “Favorites” – but it would be really nice to be able to group channels the way you want. 4. There is no way to delete channels (and keep them from showing back up when you refresh your stream). 5. You can move the channels up and down, but again, that attempted organization goes away when you refresh your stream. 6. If you are in your IPTV Providers screen, including when you update your stream, you have to power cycle the device to get back out in order to view anything. #6 is truly the most annoying to me, as it seems such a stupid and obvious problem - and it’s been this way for way, WAY too long. I mean... come ON. You should *never* have to power cycle your device in order to use an app! Just… Stupid. Unless these issues are dealt with within the next week and change, I am canceling my subscription and finding a new app. {For the record, I’ve experienced these issues on the following devices: 5th gen iPad Pro 12.9”, 2022 iPad Pro 11”, and 2024 iPad Pro 13”, and an iPhone 14 Pro Max.}

The MacBook Pro version could use some work as navigation is difficult and there are no keyboard or mouse over options. The AppleTV version and iOS version have a good user interface and are easier to use than other options from. The App Store. I’ve tried 4 other streamers both paid and free, but this app (for iOS and ATV) has the easiest interface because it does a good job uploading and downloading from iCloud.

I actually like the UI experience. Setting up favorites requires extra clicks. But it’s a one time investment. What I find is that the UI is very fast! Can’t launch show from TV Guide view. Takes be back to favorites. More customizing would be nice. The one customizing setting that is missing that concerns me the most is the missing buffering value. I like to set at 50 seconds.
