Spectrum SportsNet: Live Games

The updated version of this app seems to work better. I give it four stars for now because it still tends to give an error message at times when trying to connect.

Watching Laker games indeed works on this app and it is fine for that need if you have a cable provider. For the basic use of watching Live games of the Lakers flawlessly from my own use, this app gets a 3 ⭐️ review. Maybe it should be a 4, but the experience ought to be vastly superior, such as AD’s skills! No rewind, forward, or more conveniently is a “jump to Live” button since I noticed I’ll pause the game sometimes for a break but then I will want to watch live and not be minutes behind, unless that’s how I want to watch. To bypass that, the only option I noticed is to exit the app (double tap home button, swipe up) to reset and watch live again. Fox Sports apps allow me to pause Angels baseball games live. Why not Lakers too? BUG Report: Highlight videos will pause midway thru a video after scrolling a couple times thru the same video. There is no play button present after the scrolling, only the still image of where the scrolling stopped to. To get the same video to play again, I have to rewatch another 30 sec ad after I reselect on the same video to reset the bug! Please catch up with Fox Sports, Spectrum devs. You can do it. So-cal sports fans deserve the best!

I’d love to watch Lakers games using my paid Spectrum subscription. Unfortunately the stream quality is consistently garbage. My favorite part is when the audio and video doesn’t line up causing you to have to refresh the stream. Don’t worry though. Every time Spectrum will make you sit through a 60 second HD jack in the box advertisement before returning you to your 240p quality basketball game. If you want to watch the Lakers in HD, without feeling like you want to pound your head on the desk out of frustration, streaming illegally from reddit truly remains your best option in 2019.

Love everything, but crashes every time live starts. I used to be able to watch the channel on my TWC package here in Greensboro, NC, but now Spectrum does not offer that and I really miss the shows, so the new app appears to let me watch, but the crashing is very annoying, because I have to plan ahead to make quick alternate selection.

The redesigned app is great! and just in time for the NBA season. Logging in has never been easier and the stream starts immediately when I open the app. 👍🏻
