Absolutely not. Worthless app, you only pay for shortcuts to some British channels you have to watch through their official apps.
Thank you. How is it different from the ATV app? I about to pull the trigger and after seeing this and reviews decided not to get it
I love this app. It differs from other tvOS apps in that it's servicing live TV.
We have Sky TV in the main room, and an Apple TV in the bedroom. The TV's built-in EPG can't show me the extra channels I get through Sky, and the SkyGo app won't show me what's live on BBC. SkyGo also streams ITV & Channel 4 at an inferior quality than their respective apps, so neither were serviceable for me as a standalone live TV app. I don't want to have to open 6 apps to see what's on!
TV Launcher solved this for me. It lets me see every Live TV Programme I have access to all in one place, without leaving tvOS. If I see a live programme I want to watch, I can select it, and TV Launcher will instruct the requisite app (iPlayer, ITVX, SkyGo, etc.) to take me straight to the online broadcast.
I paid £6.99 and would do it again!
