Ratings and reviews

Phenomenal app. Lots of features and good UI / UX. Many useful functions like changing the chat window layout or location are easy to access with either one or two button presses. +/- 10 second skips are very fast in VODs, and the seek bar makes it easy to jump through hours to find what you're looking for. There's an efficient UI tutorial that's well worth paying some attention to, revealing many useful features. Dev put a lot of work into making this good.

Really good app, lots of customization and the big hero is ofcourse the possibility to view BTTV/FrankerZ emotes. I only wish it was possible to customize the D-Pad on Mi Box controller to push right to open and close chat instead of swapping channels, because that is really annoying when you are watching a stream and you misclick and suddently you're thrown over to another channel, but else than that its solid as f.

The app is great, MUCH better then the original one. I wish it could sync Twitch's "Past Broadcasts" and resume where you left (if you watched on PC for example), but i guess that's a minor thing, that maybe can't even be done, but if you watch on S0undTV, it will resume where you left off, so no problem there. Also, the "Past Broadcast" (or "VOD History" as called in S0undTV) could have a better "skipping", since now, you can only "fast forward/backwards" for 3 minutes and that's it, so watching the LEC Finals and fast forward to 7 hours, took some time :D If you wanna skip to a SPECIFIC time, you can't, only 3 minutes forward/backwards, i wish it would be like "10/30/60/180/300 seconds skip" when you keep clicking the button, something similar that "KODI" has on Android TV (= Otherwise, the app is great and greatly recommended.
