## iSTB Reviews in United Kingdom

### **--- "wonderful yet so flawed"
this is simultaneously wonderful and yet the ui is bar far the worst i have experienced on any app.

Using from an ipad , icons make no sense and its trial and error, i couldn’t even work out how to stop a video playing in full screen - it breaks all normal conventions. 

If the ui was better thought out, this would become the number 1 app for iptv.
-- r3hxn, 2024-12-03

### *---- "EPG not working in full app, but does in Lite version. ‘Not eligible for refund’."
After reading the reviews of the app, and successfully using the Lite version to test if all is ok - I purchased the full version.

However, the EPG for my provider does not work. It does in the Lite version, and in other apps but not in the full version. 

Contacted developer but I’m ‘ Not eligible for a refund’.  Very disappointing.
-- SJF1973, 2023-10-31

### **--- "Absent dev"
The dev has gone awol, so there is now no support, and their discord support channel is riddled with spam.
-- Iamsi, 2023-09-27

### *---- "Was great…. Until last update"
Since last update…. The app says there is an error. There is no error. I paid £10 for this and it doesn’t even work now. Waste of money.
-- Mr_helfire, 2023-04-11

### ***** "Super"
As other people have said it seems a bit pricey but I can assure you it’s the best stalker app for iOS and tvos
-- Big Cheese Glennie, 2023-02-25

### ***** "The Best"
There are far more expensive alternatives on the AppStore but this is hands down the best iOS/TVOS IPTV player there is. The developer is also very responsive.
-- Alphaajo, 2022-12-10

### **--- "It’s a shame"
Just paid and downloaded the full version and my sole purpose of paying for this app is for the PiP which does not work on the iPhone 13 Pro on streaming. Would’ve been useful if this feature was available on the lite version so it could be tested before paying (a lot) for the full version. Switched to player 3 in the setting and it doesnt work. Now the good points. You can hide channel groups that are not required. Layout is good Overall i feel £9.99 is too much to pay for this app. If PiP was working then it would’ve been worth it.
-- Mbhanderi, 2022-11-13

### **--- "Not working now"
Last updated renders this app unusable. Non of the players work.
Shame really because it was a great app
-- Dfx92, 2022-10-17

### ***** "Good"
Working Me thank you thank you
-- Yasskali, 2022-10-11

### ***-- "Link"
Best app ever use .love it . Good support team
-- Preshmaviju2009, 2022-07-12

### ***** "Great"
It’s working excellent. Please add air play / Chromecast feature. Thanks
-- Gurinder001, 2022-06-02

### ****- "Worth the money"
This is a very good app and defiantly worth the money. The only other feature that I would like to see implemented would be picture-in-picture. This would be very useful on iPad and iPhone.
-- Longlegz88, 2022-04-02

### ***** "help needed"
hi i have already paid for this app but now its trying to charge me again can you send me a direct download link please if possible 
the app is amazing everyone by the way very easy to use
-- Snowy1907, 2021-09-05

### ****- "By far the best IPTV app I've found"
This beats out GSE and FLIX (bad UI) and Flex IPTV (very crash happy if you do anything too quickly).

This handles many channels with ease (once the playlist loads, which is MUCH faster with XC over m3u with EPG, which can take minutes), and the fact you can pipe the video out to IINA or VLC is wonderful.
-- malkeh, 2021-06-22

### ***** "Very Good"
The app is well done and it works on all of Apple platforms. The developer is awesome, he really listen to feedback and improve the app quickly!
-- Iaa-999, 2021-05-18

### ***** "Pricey but worth it"
Does what it says it does
-- vjmaddis, 2021-05-01

### ***** "Awesome"
Thanks for adding m3u playlist support was just about to ask for it would be nice to add a separate tv guide
-- VexedIssue, 2021-04-23

### ***** "Worth the upgrade"
I tried istb Lite and decided to upgrade very easy and reliable app I love it FOOL PROOF you can’t go wrong
-- Snowy1907, 2021-03-31

### ***** "Brilliant"
The app has come leaps and bounds in the last 12months. The app works brilliantly for my 12Pro and very easy to use. Everything you need is there and then some. The Dev is always happy to help at all times of the day too 👌🏽 brilliant job and keep up the great work
-- m_a_83, 2021-02-02

### ***** "Rock on tommy"
Brilliant app,Just waiting for casting to Amazon firestick to come.
-- Mustaphago, 2020-08-26
