2026. Getting better, more stable and new features like picture in picture. Keep at it. 2024. Still the same rubbish. Streams won't play. Google TV version doesn't have Live TV feature. 2017. Laggy, poor quality streams. I pay my TV license, fix the app RTE. 2020 still crashes regularly during programmes but weirdly not during Ads. So you get to watch loads of adverts. Terrible app

Terrible alp. Constant breakdowns, frame drops and it straight cuts out. I have fast internet and a fast computer. No wonder you are sneaking the tv licience fee into a general utilities bill. Worst streaming app I have ever used. 7 years later still stuttering

Shocking that this app has had the same complaints for about 7 years. Dreadful when trying to stream with absolutely dreadful quality - constant crashing. Never any sign of improving. Embarrassing for Ireland's national broadcaster.
