Outdated big time!!!
Although the App got a very stable engine, it is outdated big time when it comes to UI and origination.

This app used to be good
This app used to be so great. Paid for the pro and it’s just been getting worse and worse. Channels don’t even like loading anymore and freezes.

Free version was better even with ads
This is the first and only app ive see where the free version was better. I had it on my 13 pro max and if I knew id lose it i wouldn’t have upgraded to the 16 pro max. The free version was just better even with the ads. This one cant play in the background which the free version could with ease and this one buffers alot and I do mean ALOT which the free version didn’t. Now it only plays live channels. It gets stuck on loading when you try to play a VOD. In really considering paying the 12.99 for tivimato pro since my free trial expired

I’ve had same issue as others where I was forced to buy again when I upgrade led my phone to 15. App has been working fine including the Record feature. Not anymore!!!
★★★★ Journey515 9/4/2024 v1.0
App STILL not working but received invoice to pay
I’ve probably been using this app for about 5 years. 10 days now and the app is not working. I’ve sent in several tickets and no one is responding to them. The email listed on the app to contact if you experience any problems returns back to me. Not a great way to treat a person who’s been a long term customer. UPDATE 9/4/24: still no service but my invoice to pay is available. I’ve exhausted all support resources available. I have received NO response and it’s going on a month now.

No Data found error message for months
I’ve been using IPTV since 2019. As of lately I’ve been having a lot of issues. “No Data Fond” error message is my biggest issue. Unfortunately no one answers or responds to support tickets anymore but, they sure remember to invoice me every month. Really disappointed because I did loves this app but it pretty much works when it wants too and if you need help, you won’t get it. UPDATE: 8/29- 15 days now with no service. Same issue as before. I’ve put in at least 11 service tickets but, per usual, no response. At this point I feel it’s a scam to collect my money

No background play
I’ve been using this app for many years with no complaints. Unfortunate that I had to pay for it again with the new iOS update but not a deal breaker because I loved it.
The deal breaker for me now is the background play feature is no longer available in this version which I loved about the original app. Bring that feature back and it’s back to being the best again.
★★★★ YouAreNotGettingMyMoney 12/13/2023 v1.0
Fraudulent App
They managed to take $2.99 from my bank for nothing. Stay away from these thieves.
★★★★ Ma3stro8052 10/5/2023 v1.0
Worst change
Previously purchased the app to run along side Apple TV, then it was changed to run Apple TV alone and they created a new app for iPad and iPhone and it’s horrible!
★★★★ AG 3770 9/2/2023 v1.0
Customer service
I downloaded this yesterday and it worked for about an hour. I was hesitating quite a bit, but still was working. I went to put it on another device and it stopped working altogether. I contacted them via chat with no results. They asked me to send a ticket, no results. Buyer beware!!

TOTAL RIP OFF
I purchased this same app 4 years ago with the same apple account from the same company. Now they cancelled the old one and open a new all under same name same logo and charged me another 3$. So far i am ok with it ebe though it is not right but their app keeps giving me server connection error while my iptv works on smarters iptv lite with no problem.
I want my money back!!

Casting?
Nope. Will not cast. Tried different phones, Wi-Fi. reinstalled etc. nope. Does not show or detect chromecast devices. Sad. The one that looked just like this worked fine as do my other apps that are cast enabled. If you want casting, don’t buy this one.

★★★★★ 2trot 2/14/2025 v1.0
Good but shady dev
While the app is pretty stable, the developer never responds to support queries and in fact, the developer likely provided Apple with a fake email for support. Additionally, I had this app for years but the shady developer decided to delete the app and put the same app back on the store and make me and many others pay twice. I paid previously and I paid again after getting a new device because the developer’s actions are dishonest.
★★★★★ tomfeltonlove 9/23/2024 v1.0
Glitchy
Vert glitchy. Works well and then buffers for a repeat. Lots of repeats. Audio and video not in sync.
★★★★★ Marcu$ 0808 9/22/2024 v1.0
No background play anymore! Have to pay again with each new phone
Scammer-esque developer makes you pay again for the same app if you ever have to re-download (upgrading iPhone). Additionally, it no longer runs in the background! This was a key perk of the app.
Other than that, it works great, but I am disappointed

Works about half the time.

Apple TV App Is not holding to one IPTV link
Apple TV App GSE is not holding to one IPTV link as it used to be. I have the same app on my iPhone and have no issue. After setting the IPTV link on the app; if I go back tro days later the link I set up is ereased.

★★★★★ Illiumblue 11/29/2023 v1.0
Awesome app but made me pay again
This is my favorite IPTV player but I just got a new phone and they made me repay to download it again so I’m taking off three stars for that shadiness.
★★★★★ FicoCh 11/27/2023 v1.0
Good app, but NOT really without support
I was forced to buy it again with iOS 17… also bought same GSE for macOS, appleTVOS and iPadOS… i skipped the iPad app this last time. Problem is support email keeps boucing, so ZERO support to be found, zero help. When device locks, the app now stops broadcasting… i was used to keep the audio on with iPhone in my pocket at least for the news while commuting… if Support is not guaranteed (seems developer is gone) why is it enabled in the App Store? Who is accountable?
