Dish anywhere no longer works on fire tablet. It would not let me update my review from the tablet as it says I've already left a review. The app, for a long time, has not allowed you to download your recordings to watch anywhere. Now, it will not even stream anything you have recorded on your DVR recently. It never connects to your set-top box. So my dvr, 90% full, but I can't watch anything unless I'm at home looking at a TV plugged into a cable box. Useless app.

A year and a half later and I didn't think it was possible for an app to become even worse than it was. Why does it continually buffer or freeze or gives me error saying it disconnected. I can go to any of my other streaming apps abd they run seamlessly so I know it isn't the Internet connection despite what DISH app says. Anywhere app is useless.

We regret that you have had a poor experience. Please email us at danyprod@dish.com so we can investigate your account further. Its possible that the internet connectivity at the Hopper is causing some issues. We would need more of your information so we can look at the receiver health on the back end.

I am adding another complaint. You can no longer submit your payment. It constantly says error, and won't submit payment..The other thing that really makes me mad about this app, is the fact that only 1 person in the family can watch live TV on the app at a time. I hate Comcast, and at least 2 people can watch live on their app. I found another issue, the tv remote option quit working last update.
