We wanted to love streaming to our smart TV using Spectrum. But we hate it. Setting up recordings is easy on my phone app. But watching them on Roku TV is awful. When you try to ff or rewind, you can't see what you're skipping. It's nearly impossible to navigate to different live channels without going back to the home screen, and you can't pause, rewind or ff live TV. Switching from one screen to the next is very slow. All this might be better if I could use my phone app to control the TV app.

Recently forced to use this app to watch TV because I'm waiting for a new cable box to arrive from spectrum. I only watch Live TV. The app is horrible compared to the cable box. There's no page up and down, the info doesn't show you nearly as much as the info you see with the cable box, there's no movie ratings with stars, there's no previous channel button, it's just atrocious. This app needs to be scrapped and Rewritten from the bottom up to make it act like the cable TV box.

It doesn't work very well. Can't login with my android phone. Edit: Login finally works. But the Guide that comes with the app is very hard to use. the basic broadcast channels appear only after all the others, Weird having to scroll down to the bottom of a long list (close to 2000 items) to find them. I use the guide to set up recordings. Watching on a tiny cell phone is not for me.
