Ratings and reviews

Frequent experience: In just one recorded football game, the screen went black 6 times. Turning everything off and restarting gave me an error message. It took unplugging/replugging the streaming device each time to get the picture back. It's not the device; it works perfectly with all other streaming services. Just Yukon crashes. I've also set multiple programs to record but about half give me an error code on playback. Last, Yukon costs about 50% more than other comparable streaming services.

Seems barely developed past beta imo. The UI is laggy on all devices tested so far: Pixel 3a, ipad air2, 2019 Lenovo tablet 8in. There is multiple times changing channels (swipe up/down, or select new from guide) where it tells me there was an error and cannot stream that channel. I have to force quit the app and then it might let me get that channel. Also there is options for sound quality (stereo, surround, DST?) That seems to crash the app when trying to change that setting. 2 stars

Yukon TV works well until it doesn't. My biggest peaves are 1) whatever show is streaming will occasionally freeze several times a day, and 2) every device seems to require user account and password entries every 1 to 3 weeks... it is super annoying to enter a complex password with a Fire TV remote. The only justification to spend $100 per month is if you don't have an unlimited data plan, since Yukon TV does not count against your monthly cap.
