DIRECTV

Its a good app I can watch what ever I have in my package and I love it because I could be on the road and still be able to watch tv when Im not driving

Wth

Wth did they do to this app? Doesnt even work!! Needs a fix real bad!!

Wont load up!

Worked great for a week or so but then it stopped starting up! Gets stuck on the on demand screen. Ive tried updating, re downloading, turning phone off and on. Nothing works!

Listing

Spent 20+ min in app trying to set up a future recording. Could not even get TV listings for the day I wanted to even pop up. Got frustrated and gave up. Ill set my DVR when I get home.

Finally

I can FINALLY give DTV a good review because it is FINALLY doing what it needed to. Full live streaming of my channels on my phone. Im not getting my locals but I can live with that. Great picture and sound. iPhone6s.

Issa Hit

Nice app it really helps when I cant find my remote.

Useless

It freezes every time I log in

New update is horrible

Had DIRECTV for a month the first couple of weeks the app worked great now I cant even watch tv on my iPhone all it does is say login in and have the DIRECTV logo with nothing happening please fix it soon

I have been trying to register my TV/DVR etc. and the app keeps saying I need to be near my TV. Can not be any closer. I do not like paying for something I can not get. My husband and I have been members for over 30 years. You have already lost us as cell customers.

Download and go doesnt work

This interface on this app is horrible. I had dish for years and the app on there was much better. Their is no option for sd, hd and audio only when watching live tv. I tried watching one of my shows the other day from my friends house and it didnt let me watch it unless I was at home. On the dish app I could watch any channel, any show off my DVR and everything was hd. Also some movies I transferred on to my kids tablet said it will work only for 30 days then after that you cant ever put it on the tablet again. On dish you could have them forever. Now the app deleted all 6 movies that took two days to put on the tablet. Now the download and go symbol has disappeared on the app. They broke the app after the June 28th update. I hate this app. Fix it. Make it better. Im going back to dish for tv once my two years is up.

Doesnt work on iphone7

It doesnt work when you login. App just spins and then a DIRECTV logo on a black screen. Called tech support and was told that the app doesnt work for the iphone7. The phone has been out a while now, I dont understand how they arent up to date yet. Especially with the last push on June 26

Mad!!!!

This dumb app is sooooo frustrating! It crashes all the time, looses your place in the show your watching. Forces you to watch commercials. It just crashed while I was working out, and Im trying to figure out where I was in a show and its making me wade through 2 minutes of commercials only to find Im on the wrong episode (because sometimes it doesnt accurately keep track of what youve watched). So I switch episodes and NOW ITS MAKING ME WATCH 2 MORE MINUTES OF COMMERCIALS! Man I miss my Netflix app. So started up my app today. Tried to re enter a show that I had watched part of yesterday. It started me today about 35 min earlier than it was supposed to, with fast forward DISABLED!!!!!! Come on!

Its the worst app ever

I used to have dish i never had a problem watching over the phone I thought Directv will be the same but noo this is horrible it is veryy badd

Great app

Gets most of the Channels I like to watch at home and mainly the sports Channels that I like .

Works exactly as expected

Works for what I expected it to do. I wish all my DIRECTV channels were available to live stream.

Glitch Gremlin

Super glitchy. Supposed to be more convenient but I just do everything on the TV instead.

Glitches

The live tv stream freezes while watching and the video get out of place of the audio and it repeats itself

It needs work

This app needs improvement, I feel like its just not great enough, I might terminate my service with DIRECTV and go with DIRECTV NOW.

Unstable and unreliable

Super glitchy with a clunky and inconsistent user interface. Sometimes it works, most of the time is works a little but with lots of freezing and some crashing. With ondemand viewing its hit or miss whether youll have the option to resume after restarting the app, or if the app will even recall which episodes have already been viewed. Commands are redundant, you may have to push three separate watch now buttons to start a show, and the skip ahead 10sec button doesnt skip ten seconds ahead, nor does anything 3 out of 4 times you try to use it. Buggy, laggy, redundant, clunky, and itll remember that one show you watched last year, and then decided was rubbish a few minutes in, but it wont remember a show from yesterday or where you left off five minutes ago (whether you stopped the app or it crashed).

No more remote???

Used this app specifically for the remote now its gone...
