Accessibility Comments

This app works well enough to just browse, find a tv channel to watch and play it. One thing to keep in mind is that you'll want to switch the tv guide layout from grid to list as this will improve accessibility by a lot. One thing which is not accessible is favoriting a channel. This is also not possible on the IOS version as well.

Mostly Accessible

Other Comments

This app works a lot better on apple tv than it does on IOS. the app layout can be better; I also find the navigation jumping around a bit when it refreshes but other than that, this is really not bad and much improved on their previous versions.

Favouriting channels

You can favourite channels by going into settings, tapping Favourites, and then selecting channels from there. It isn't ideal because it lists literally every channel in existance, and scrolling to the ones you want might take some time. But it works. Agreed there needs to be a way to favourite channels from the guide though.

video controls

Patrick,
Have you noticed when watching a channel on the IOS app, the playback controls vanish within 3 seconds? this makes it extremely difficult to adjust playback or even exit the video window.
Have you found a workaround?
