Ratings and reviews

Surprise! Updates make it worse. Does not coordinate with the television. The communication between the phone app and the TV is even worse than before. Recordings on one don't show on the other and vice a versa. Even more difficult to navigate now. Not user-friendly at all. Honestly there are times when you don't think an app can get worse...well, DirecTV you've done it.

I tried the free version. Very limited program selection in live and on demand videos. Also, there's a video (not an ad) running in the lower right corner all the time that can't be removed. The video can be changed but not removed, even when you stop the video. Finally, every on demand video I tried to watch required a subscription. These videos are available in other apps for free with limited commercial interruption.

sounds like a deal, but after they break the different component charges down and raise and/or add new charges its just more of the same. you have to add this APP, that APP, and the other APP to stream what you want, you wind up with a crazy high bill. All the talk about thousands of movies and shows is smoke & mirrors to mask that very little is free stuff that comes with your "Direct TV" cost. the best deal is unlimited recordings.
