Awful As much as I pay for cable this app is awful. Constantly buffers regardless if on WiFi or not. Watching anything live is next to impossible it's annoying. On my husband phone shows go high speed. I keep up with updates hoping it gets better. No matter the device I use this app is terrible

Monica E

Unwatchable The ONE show I watch on this app is not available on-demand. That makes it especially galling when trying to follow the program through nearly-incessant lag and delays. Ten seconds of dialogue, thirty seconds of the little blue spinning circle. Way to go, TWC.

LIVE TV PAUSES WAY TO MANY TIME WITH NEW UPDATE 9/22/16- CAN'T ENJOY LIVE TV !KEEPS LOADING... EVERY 10 SECONDS ! Its not my wifi... My wifi works great... Always been able to enjoy live tv on my cell never once did i ever have this problem with the old app version ... in the morning working great... try to use it at night and i realized it had updated automatically because it had TWC 's new name Spectrum... Could NOT USE IT BAD NEW UPDATE . SHOW PAUSES WAY TOO MANY TIMES IN 1 MINUTE... Please fix.

Martin Awad

No video stream After the update, there is no stream. NOT A GOOD START FOR Spectrum! Other apps requiring cable sign-in, such as comedy central, are no longer streaming either. Lets see if Spectrum's promise of better customer service comes to fruition, so far I doubt it.

Martha Larimer

Here we go again. Hasn't worked well in a few weeks this time. Come on Spectrum, get this app up to par please! Complete turnaround again. This app is like a yoyo. Not so hot after the last update. Before the last update, it was five stars, today barely three.

Chile Nkwocha

Issues. Forced to update from a version that worked well. Newer version doesn't show when show will expire from On Demand. Update: There's no longer a recently watched group for On Demand, things are either actively in progress or in the manually curated Watch Later list - which wouldn't be an issue if it were in alphabetical order. Can you remove the transitions from On Demand -they're an eye sore. In response to your response: Uninstalling and reinstalling isn't going to add the functionality back that I want.

Just Plain Bad You would think the company that sells itself as THE digital media expert could produce an app that works. App stops in the middle of programs, will often not connect to the internet, and stops again when I change channels. Often, I have to change the network to my cell phone hotspot to get the app to connect, then cut off the hotspot for the app to then automatically connect to my home network. If I change channels, repeat the same steps. I am going to go ahead and say I am tired of using this app!

Caleb Dixon September 28, 2016

Used to be great App just did an update. Now I can no longer access the guide on my phone. This was the only useful part of the app that I use on a daily basis. Very disappointed now

Janet Bolts September 24, 2016

Twc tv app Very very disappointed. There's such frequent loading and reloading of the picture no matter what channel I'm watching I can't enjoy.

Live TV is Awful WTH happened to this new updated app?? The bugs and kinks should have been fixed by now. The old app was perfect. Now every time I watch live TV on my cellphone or tablet, the show freezes and starts buffering. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app six times and it is the same as last time---not working. I have been a loyal customer for over 16yrs and pay a lot of money each month for such poor quality of service. Fix the app, please.....

A Google User September 21, 2016

Critical Need This (now) fine app critically needs the option of overriding networks' scheduled programming, and allowing the user to manually set begin and end times of recording blocks. This is especially important to sports viewers who are inconvenienced by weather delays that push the action out of networks' prearranged schedules.

Michael Kimball September 22, 2016

Pretty useless The app says need to be on home network some BS like that what's the point of having this app you expect ppl to pay your service and yet you limit them on channels outside our homes talk about greedy cable company when ur at home you have TV's you expect it to all be available I go visit my fam but oh no limited you are unbelievable the app doesn't work half the time and ask I sewer is go to twitter or Facebook no real customer support voice to voice such a shame you could have been great but way too greedy

Jennifer Sanders September 22, 2016

What happened? Was working great. Loved being able to set recordings and manage my dvr away from home but it no longer works. Very dissapointing.

Diane Pendygraft September 27, 2016

Would not even open time Warner used to be good stuff now half the things they offer doesn't work.. Thanks spectrum for wasting my time and money with everything. Cable and internet and your apps are useless

ashley graves September 27, 2016

Dvr It would really be nice if I could watch shower I dvrd on the app!! I think after paying over $200 a month 4 cable the least I could get is watching what I dvr'd on the app on my phone regardless of where I am

Jennifer Francis September 25, 2016

Don't update! Just updated and I can't use the DVR manager or the guide. They are grayed out and when you click on them you get an error message

Ventura County Live TV Service Update 9-18-2013 4:30 P.M.: First time in last 4-6 weeks that LIVE streaming is possible without delays due to timeouts. Service lags occasionally, but does recover without UI lockup. I am willing to rate overall service 3 stars. It is easy to understand by reading all the similar negative stories from TW customers, the streaming infrastructure is not capable of supporting the subscribed users - period. The app for Android has improved steadily with the support of the TW development team. KUDOS to the software engineering effort! Shame on you TW corporate for allowing your customer base to complain to the degree of anger that is obvious in these reviews. A $5 Amazon gift card and a VOD movie hardly calms the masses. There are many other ships that sail the same sea! Arrr! Mutiny? Update 9-28-2016 - Service and UI shows constant improvement. Great consistent effort from S/W Dev. on ease of use and new features. I am upgrading to 4 stars. With new ownership, let's see if the effort continues.

Johnny Banuelos September 21, 2016

Not enough live channels I want all channels available even though I'm not connected to wi-fi. Its annoying when I can't watch local channels or sports channels away from home.

Don Rivers September 25, 2016

What happened to Guide? When attempting to access the channel guide the app gives an error message. Now I am unable to see what is coming up a few hours ahead

Time Warner Cable September 26, 2016

Danielle Flores September 28, 2016

When will we be able to watch what we record, this app is slow and tends to lag. The app tends to state "contact your provider" and at times is down or not working all day.

Teddy C September 24, 2016

Live tv The app always crashing when trying to watch live TV it seem like time warner would of fix this app by now what customers service smh

Time Warner Cable September 26, 2016

Michelle Stanifer September 26, 2016

Broken As of today, the app updated and it no longer works. When I try to use the to guide or the DVD manager I just get an error message.

Time Warner Cable September 26, 2016

Brandt Phillips September 23, 2016

No Chromecast support! Why on earth would you produce a video app that isn't Chromecast compatible? No wonder cable revenues are in the toilet!

Juan Machuca September 22, 2016

Is ok Too bad i cant watch the local channels unless im home and using the wifi.😒

srdjan sudar September 26, 2016

Pretty sad how bad this is Always crashes, on demand will not load, very sad that company of this size can suck so bad.

Time Warner Cable September 26, 2016

Chrystal Williams September 26, 2016

Having a lot of issues Keeps skipping having issues saving I guess. While watching something program my skip a few seconds ahead. Then back making you miss some

Steve Kasee September 26, 2016

Scheduled recording conflict notifications. I'd like to see an option to enable notifications when there are scheduled recording conflicts.

Time Warner Cable September 26, 2016

Steve Andrade September 25, 2016

Very handy, but needs one key component to be worthy of five stars Cast to screen option is much needed when watching live TV on your device and why does it only work in landscape orientation?

Tanaia Winchester September 26, 2016

Not working Upon installation the DVR manager and guide are disabled with error messages.

Time Warner Cable September 26, 2016

D de September 22, 2016

Zero stars NOTHING IS EVER AVAILABLE Useless when outside of home

Hien Pham September 26, 2016

Useless I am away from home. Right now the presidential debate is on. Guess what? None of the channels on this app shows it. I meant if i am at home who needs this app.

Yellow Shorts September 22, 2016

Hayley Pennell September 27, 2016

Matthew Ford September 24, 2016

TWC customer app You must have TWC but this is very nice app to watch TV on your devices.

Scott Sewell September 25, 2016

Could be useful I was trying to watch the Yankees game on wifi at a bar that didn't have it on. I couldn't watch because "I was on Wifi". It would've been cool if I could have watched.

Shaquanda Concepcion September 28, 2016

Multiple connections Works great even away from home. I use the app on my phone and tabled and it's great when you're on the run with the littles!

PISTOL PETE September 22, 2016
