Sling: Live TV, Sports & News App Reviews

Buggy, terrible software

Grainy video, slow software, crashes a lot. Makes watching tv a huge headache. IOS app was written by clowns.

Lousy steaming.

While the concept is good- for the price it is overrated (at 2stars) considering the few available live channels. Fix the player. Increase user content.

Ive never written a review...until now

This app is constantly crashing or "thinking" to no end. Its unusable. Im looking forward to getting the Roku 2 and see if it performs better on my TV. Had I known the app was so glitchy, I never would have signed up for Sling TV.

AirPlay doesnt work

This could be a great app but unfortunately the airplay feature doesnt work which makes it pretty useless.

Sling, Fix Your Bugs!!!!

Great service for $20. Buggy app. Bug: most of the time, when you launch the app it cant stream what you were previously watching. It just sits there with the spinning wheel. The workaround for this: you have to force quit the app (double tap the home button, swipe up on the app to force quit it) The interface is a little strange. For instance, you cannot just scroll to a channel then tap on it to watch it. You have to tap on the right show that is currently playing, which isnt always obvious, then a side panel comes up and then you can tap on Watch. This is clunky. Just let me scroll to a channel and start watching whatever is live on that channel by tapping on it once. The best thing about this system is that they really got the channel package right. This is the perfect combination of channels to complement what one gets over the air via the antenna.

Con artist

Sling tv is a con artist I tried the free 7 day trial next thing I know Im was being charged $21 with out my consent they activated sling tv without my permission they wont give me back my money and they tried to make me stay with sling tv when I told them I dont like sling tv fair warning to other customers

Worst app ever

I dont get it why major tv channels depend on this crap. Its a wast!

Horrific

Just a big steaming pile of crap app. Freezes constantly, user unfriendly. Utterly terrible in every way.

What an absolute disaster

This app does a good job wasting your time

Works

Im still waiting for the big release... an Apple TV app.

Great idea but not ready for iOS

Sling is great when streaming to a tv, but the app is not ready yet unfortunately. I have never been able to use it without some bug or glitch-the screen freezes, the voices lose sync, shows cut in and out of commercials in the middle of a sentence. Its really a train wreck and I hope they fix it soon because its such a great concept!!
