Very buggy. Frequently crashes and TV guide doesn't work so you can never see what's on.
Unfortunately don't have an ariel so this is the only option I can find to watch live tv

This would be a great app
This would be a great app , if only it worked properly.
Constantly freezes , buffers , drops out and crashes.
Makes you go through the exhausting login procedure over and over again.
Why can't you fix it TV Player???

When it works it's good...but mostly it doesnt
When it works it's good. Unfortunately it hardly ever loads properly (on firestick). It takes about 3 tries....after hanging. Literally takes 3-4 minutes to get working. I used to pay for it but stop a couple of months ago. Now I'm stopping altogether given schedules don't appear for most channels. I'm looking forward to a copy and paste response from them. That's not acceptable. People want then to acknowledge they have problems with some reasoning and what they are doing to alleviate them.

Rubbish TV guide/schedule
For a free APP this is pretty good. It seems to work more fluidly when your Firestick is super clean BUT why o why is it constantly missing the schedule list? ITV, C4, 5, BBC4, Quest, Dmax, Discovery and so on and so on there is ZERO program information SO FRUSTRATING. I've done and factory reset on firestick, re-downloaded TVPlayer etc and still no change

Shambles.
Disgraceful, I’ve been subscribed to this for at least 18 months, now today I’m being asked to subscribe again to watch selected channels. My subscription is live and up to date. Theft.

TvPlayer Xbox One App Review
Xbox One App Review:
The whole app works perfectly fine, a great alternative to freeview/live tv for a house without an aerial, great picture quality and audio on the live steaming service.
There are free channels (BBC1, BBC2, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5 and more) and there is a subscription with a handful of paid channels (History, Discovery, TLC, Lifetime HD and more) and an on demand feature for those paid channels too.
Overall a great app I would recommend for anyone who struggles with no aerial/ bad aerial reception and would like to watch a selection of freeview channels live on their Xbox One.
Great customer service too, I had a problem with the app (ITV did not stream at first) and it was sorted out extremely quickly via the TVPlayer support team
If you run the app on the Xbox One make sure you email the TVPlayer support team with your postcode to ensure every channel runs correctly or go through their help centre web page

The app promised over 40 free to view…
The app promised over 40 free to view channels so I took the bait and installed it. To find that of the 40 channels displayed on my screen over half are coming up saying my plan does not cover it. About 9 will actually work. So even free to view channels you could get on freesat or freeview do not come up. Promptyly u installed this rubbish app

Hi Jennifer - Thanks for the review. We’re very sorry to read your feedback and will pass this onto the Product Team. Our website states "Over 40 free to air and premium channels available". 13 of the channels are Premium channels which leave plenty of free-to-air channels.
Terrible app

Frustratingly poor
For some reason lately you have to sign in EVERY time - what a pain - mainly because once you have signed it nothing actually works. I refuse to subscribe just to watch TV live whilst working on my PC - be cheaper and more reliable to just buy a cheap small screen TV. Well outdated against all other free models available.

This outfit were poor in the past
This outfit were poor in the past, now they are useless. One cannot watch any channel.All channels seem to be loading all the time.Sorry this is not quite accurate. One channel had sound but no picture. The reviews are 24% excellent -the last was as long ago as January- against 50% bad and poor -the last a couple of days ago. These numbers tell us a lot.If they carry on like this it will be a matter of time before they fold up.
