TV Listings Plus

We cut the cable to the mega conglomerate cable, I don’t want to feed the rich as they stick it to us on their over prided cable. We bought a proper antenna and found this great app, it is so much easier and quicker to find what you are looking for on the app than looking on the tv. Good job ladies and gentlemen!! Cable is in the rearview mirror. Take the money you save and open up a savings account for kids, grandkids college fund. Take the money and donate to the children going to bed hungry every night in this country that is sucked dry by draconian taxes!!

This is a fantastic tv listing app! We don’t pay for cable and have an Eclipse indoor antenna which picks up a lot of channels. I’d been using the TV24 app for years, but had to stop using because it wouldn’t sync with the new local channels. This app found all our channels, and I can delete the ones we don’t ever watch. I don’t have to watch advertising, the app size isn’t massive, and it works great. Definitely recommend. Thanks developers!!

This is the best TV Guide-style app I’ve run across — certainly better than the actual TV Guide app. Setup is logical and the display of info is clear. This app is possible because it is supported by ads. I have no problem with that, except that some of the ads are extremely low quality, deceptive, offensive, and perhaps fraudulent. That’s the fault of an ad aggregation mill, and not the author, but it still leaves a bad taste. I’d prefer a one-time $3 charge (say) for an ad-free version. The author’s privacy policy — read it! — is actually quite good. I can’t say that for the third-party advertisers.

The major item lacking in this app is the same gripe I have with others in that it fails to show all the channels I can receive and won’t let me add them either. Otherwise, I have little to criticize about it. It’s slim and offers a fair amount of program info. I would love to see a link to IMDB for a more complete show description as well as a listing of actors but that’s minor. All the others I’ve looked at are either way too skimpy with not enough info or they overwhelm with too much info with no way of paring them down easily.

ask user to change the rating

I would have given it 5 stars, but I have an issue with the advertisements. I understand that advertising support pays for the service, but inadvertently, my finger sometimes misses touching the TV show that I want information about—instead, up come the dang ads. I wouldn’t mind that so much, but they plant some kind of spyware that tracks my interests so they can market similar products. If these businesses were legitimate (i.e., a physical location with their contact information) they wouldn’t get away with this type of deceitful practice. After writing all this, I lowered my rating to “3-stars.”
