This has got to be the worst TV app!!! I'm not sure where the I.T. department is at, but I can definitely say they are not doing their job. I just recently turned in my cable boxes to save some money and installed the Spectrum TV app on my Samsung TV's. And since I did the app loads so slow it freezes and when they put up the emergency alert you press the okay button and it will not open the channel I was watching, I have to change the channel then go back to the original channel. TRASH!!!

Horrible app. We opted to use the app to stream our cable to TV rather than paying the ridiculous monthly fee they want to charge you every single month for boxes. At this point, it's not even worth paying for the cable. Every day there are reliability issues. Can't connect, doesn't load, buffers then cuts out saying there were problems playing, etc. Tired of hearing the "I'm sorry you're not having a good experience ".

Truly terrible. You have to get to the tv 10 minutes before your program starts so you can watch it boot up, walk through error messages, blow out of the program for no reason, and then finally get to the channel you want. Once you have your channel, it may or may not lag. Tried to watch a football game with my daughter last week, and we were both driven crazy by sudden freeze frames / stop motion / fast motion to catch up broadcasting. I thought this was just the football satellite, but no - the commercials were as bad as the live broadcast. Bad experience all around. If you have another cheap alternative or can get your programs another way, I would not choose Spectrum.
