I have Titivate and I prefer Sparkle Tv over Tivi. It's clean, fast. User interface is excellent!!! I bought the lifetime subscription

Nice app, but add some features like titivate app. Please add choosing exo, vlc and other players.

Pleasant surprise. This app is doing everything right. Only IPTV app that flawlessly Integrates HDhomerun natively. Wish to have been: quick acces to list of channels and/or mosaic of logos without the full EPG (update: Developer reported that channel list feature is on the works!). Also, access to categories and list change by left button press. (Update: mapped OK long press to EPG launch) Now I can have access to categories with left. Good work. I found this app to be better than Titivate.

Two stars, due to the great layout. I was able to add a playlist with ease, using the unpaid version. I paid the one time fee immediately, after seeing the option to add my own self-hosted jellyfin server. I was unable to set up my jellyfin server using my custom domain name. So much for an all-in-one app on the go. The local LAN address for it seemingly accepted the setup, yet nothing appeared after waiting for 5 minutes. I've requested a refund.
