Hi, I just purchased TABLO 4th Gen and I use it on my iOS and apple TV devices. It seems to work well on the main page and setup is a little clunky but workable. The guide page does not work with VoiceOver at all. I love the concept but they have work to do. I'm hoping they send an update in the next month or else it's going back. I have until Jan 30 to return.

It is possible to do setup. And with some careful touch navigation you can search for programs and set them to record in the TV guide. It is best to search for show names, to narrow down what the guide is showing.
Just browsing without knowing what you want is pretty hard though.
Once you have a recording in your library you can also watch it with the iOS device with a big caveat: there are no accessible player controls, even to stop it. So you have to kill the app.
The way I use it is to use the iOS app to set up Tablo, set up the shows I want it to record. And then watch the shows or even live TV using the Tablo TV app on the Fire TV stick. The app version for Fire TV isn't perfect but the player works better than the one in the iOS app.
So it can be used, if you are willing to put in the work and investment. It could be better.

The short answer is no.
