I would like to watch SRF TV abroad but I can see only advertising.
★★★★ Fab Mini 3/29/2026 v6.2611.0
sorry, geht einfach nicht mehr. nach ablauf des Jahresabos werde ich kündigen. wir haben mehrere Abos seit Jahren, aber Mal abgesehen vom stetigen Preisaufstieg (noch verständlich) mit gleichzeitig Werbung in Replay und kein Überspringen möglich und am Schlimmsten die ganzen technischen Aussetzer. miserabel. nicht mehr zumutbar.
★★★★ Patrick von Arx 1/21/2026 v2.2542.1
terrible ui, slow, low fps, high latency, too much bad, unnecessary animation (like the frame moving down, then the row moving up and vice versa) it's eye cancer inducing guide view is garbage, needs to be scalable why have a recommended section that recommends nothing management of recordings is tedious tiles/thumbnails need scalability displaying 9 tiles on a 4k screen is just retarded series recordings doesn't record the same series on different channels I like the colour of the ui, that's it
★★★★ Sylvain Grossmann 1/10/2026
Viel zu teuer. Es gibt bessere Angebote.
★★★★ tobias riedener 12/22/2025 v2.2542.1
zu viel werbung
★★★★ Nick Bacon 11/4/2025 v6.2544.0
remember when zattoo was simple, lightweight and did exactly what you expected it to do? i tried setting it up for my mother in law and it's / ADS FOR PRODUCTS YOU DON'T CARE, PLEASE BE PATIENT \ such a mess and full of ads that will show up every time i change channel. Are you for real?

All apps are so much worse in their Android TV versions. Care to explain why Google?
★★★★ Tim Julie Walsh Griffin 10/4/2025 v6.2539.0
account language setting not working on Android TV app!!!
★★★★ Victor 9/21/2025 v6.2533.1
depuis la dernière MAJ l'App est lente, les menus sont moins pratique, les enregistrements de séries ne permettent plus de passer aux épisodes suivants. Pourquoi avoir fait une mise à jour qui détériore autant l'expérience ? je ne renouvellerai pas mon abonnement si cela n'est pas amélioré.
★★★★ Rudolf Betschart 9/12/2025 v6.2533.1
Who in J's name has approved this latest update of the Zattoo app? It's easier to name the few functions that are working fine than the ones that are broken! RW, FW Play from begin... all ends with just a random jump to any point in the movie. Navigation impossible.
★★★★ Martin Mosinski 7/11/2025 v2.2520.0
Work fine before, now it doesn't work at all. It says check your internet connection. The internet connection is good and all other apps are working correctly.
★★★★ Chris 7/4/2025 v2.2524.0
on the Xiaomi TV Box HORRIBLE experience.
★★★★ Kais el Kara 6/29/2025 v2.2520.0
principal the zattoo app is good however I give it one star. because it says it is not available in Tunisia. I wanted to watch the french and German tv and pay for it.
★★★★ daniel fornasier 11/24/2024 v2.2442.1
Auf erzwungene Werbung nach jedem Eingreifen ist Benutzer unfreundlich! Ich werde nicht mehr verlängern.
★★★★ Valeria Liverini 10/14/2024 v2.2435.1
Does not work well on tv
★★★★ 9 9/21/2024 v2.2433.0
can't subscribe on TV anymore need other device???
★★★★ Bartholomäus Bresch 7/6/2024 v2.2418.0
Seit einigen Tagen ist es unmöglich die App auf dem Android -TV (Philips) zu nutzen um live fern zu schauen! Auf allen Kanälen nur ein sich drehender Kreis und evtl kurzes aufblinkes des Programms! Starten eines Programms ist nur über "Replay" möglich!!! Es gibt aber auch Kanäle ohne Replay!!! Als langjähriger Abonnent mit Plus-Paket ist das unakzeptabel!
★★★★ 9 4/6/2024 v2.2411.0
can't purchase via TV anymore need Android phone too now....
★★★★ Adrian MH 3/26/2024
Ich hab in meinem Leben noch nie so einen unscharfen Stream gesehen
★★★★ H Bu 2/11/2024 v2.2345.1
Plenty of advertising and very unstable
★★★★ Wes Sa 2/9/2024 v2.2403.0
Cannot subscribe to the Service. On Android TV it says An error has occurred. This should no happen, we are sorry.
★★★★ Andre Thea 1/15/2024 v2.2347.0
Paid,l for premium, but didn't get access. It's a rip off !
★★★★ cpm 11/17/2023 v2.2334.4
Privacy policy not understood. Some stuff says "always active" , where I cannot even change it. I am paying for a subscription and then my data may be shared with 400+ companies? I don't understand...
★★★★ L H 11/5/2023 v2.2341.1
grösster schmutz. funktioniert nur s 50% hängt sich meistens beim replay auf.
★★★★ Gabor Weiner 9/24/2023 v2.2334.0
Crashes on Nvidia Shield, immediately after starting the app

impossible de changer la langue de l'application. cela me met les chaînes anglaises partout ?!???!,
★★★★ Georg Walter 8/15/2023 v2.2325.0
slow
★★★★ Burkert Brütsch 7/10/2023 v2.2323.0
The app gets worst and worst. Switching from replay to live tv öfter doesn't work. Reply jumps back or forth. Maybe better switching to Swisscom TV.
★★★★ Mister Invisible 7/3/2023 v2.2304.1
cannot enable
★★★★ Marcus Burkert 6/24/2023 v2.2140.1
Yes, the TV app on Android TV is getting worse and worse. Freezing, hanging and switch to live tv has huge problems. Support is useless, because they ask to make a video of the problem - 😂. Maybe better switch to another provider!
★★★★ Claire et Adrien Febvay 6/3/2023 v2.2319.0
Just won't even start
★★★★ Natalia Majorczyk 4/6/2023
Too many ads and no top of that almost everything is behind paywall. it used to be my favorite app but not anymore
★★★★ Jens Stark 3/20/2023 v2.2308.0
Ständig Hänger und schlechte Auflösung. Mediatheken der ÖR haben kein Problem, andere Anbieter auch nicht Melanie vom Support ist zwar supporttypisch freundlich, konnte aber keinerlei Lösungsvorschläge anbieten, die nicht auch auf der Website zu finden sind. (Okay, das Problem ist mit ÖR-Programmen auf Samsung Smart TV. 3.2308-2 - wohl etwas, was keine Priorität in der Fehlerbehebung hat.)
★★★★★ Curdin Pitsch 1/10/2026 v6.2550.1
slow, hängs often after seeking
★★★★★ Stefano Nesso 12/15/2025 v6.2548.0
(smart tv version) the app is slow and the video often freezes for no apparent reason
★★★★★ Jean-Marc Rihs 11/23/2025 v6.2544.0
This app is pretty good, however for a few months I only get the FREE subscription functions although I pay for the PREMIUM CHF 14.- a month! I don't understand why, if it's a Zattoo problem or a Google Play Store Problem? It has probably to do when they did update the app. So I just unsubscribed because after looking patiently and with no success for answers online, I gave up. And by the way, it's never easy to get customer service, so a not that good 2 stars review may help to have an answer.
★★★★★ Christopher Greene 10/11/2025 v6.2539.0
not great, interface is glitchy and non intuitive
★★★★★ Roberto R. 10/7/2025 v6.2539.0
On my NVIDIA Shield, after the latest update the UI is in German. Come on, do you test changes before a release?
★★★★★ Ant Dearden 10/3/2025 v2.2528.0
seems to insist on German on Chromecast. regular crashes
★★★★★ Patrick von Arx 6/10/2025 v2.2520.0
it delivers basic functionality. UI is meh. recording is meh. can't easily switch between two channels, meh.
★★★★★ Gilbert Bötschi 4/12/2025 v2.2513.0
Suddenly forever loading wheel: Open Zattoo and watch live TV: everything ok. Press Home Button on remote Control and go immediately back to the Zattoo app. Now nothing works and i get the loading wheel of death. Same on 2 different boxes (Nokia and GTV, Android 12)
★★★★★ Pedro Pombeiro 9/1/2024 v2.2431.0
Changing channels is too slow, compared to other apps such as NetPlus (which is immediate). It takes at least 1 second to change channel. I also see a wait cursor every time I scroll the guide. This happens on a recent Sony Bravia (2023 model), which has a pretty fast processor.
★★★★★ Paul K 5/21/2024 v2.2416.0
Im Prinzip ganz gut. Leider wird die Qualität bei vielen Details sehr schlecht. Andere Apps streamen, am selben Gerät, ohne Probleme 4k mit DolbiDigital.
★★★★★ Remo Schatz 11/12/2023
why do you have to reinvent the navigation of streaming apps? all the other apps do it right, but zattoo just has to be different. i hate navigating in this app, especially on the TV. Also it's kinda undstable and crashes from time to time.
★★★★★ Hans Carlos Hofmann 4/28/2023 v2.2312.0
An dich ganz gut aber ich hasse es wenn Programmierer einen zu irgendwas Nötigen wie zum Beispiel eine Bewergung abgeben.
