Ratings and reviews

While it works, usage is pretty clunky compared to Ziggos offering. The guide takes up way more space than needed on 4k and there doesn't seem to be an option to continue playback while looking at the guide. Changing channels is slow, but made slower by forcing you to wait several seconds in case you wanted to type more than one number. I do like that it responds to most of the tv remote buttons. Not the previous channel button yet though.

On my Samsung A21: hangs (internal 72 or something else), main menu comes and goes, controls not handy, favourites selection not available during TV viewing (only selection from all channels possible), list of favourites regularly disappears, short dropout at start of programs resulting in missed headline readings, some stations only available at home, app barely improved over last years.

the option to chose between 'favorites' or 'all channels' suddenly disappeared and only the 'favorites' option was left. Had to restart phone to get 'all channels' + 'favorites' back. Quite annoying. The recording option usually works pretty good..
