Re: Are TV apps failing?
If you have an Android Smart TV, it's on there - I have it on my 1 year old Sony.

Re: Are TV apps failing?
One of the reasons I wouldn't buy a smart TV is that I know it won't get updated after 18 months once the manufacturer doesn't care about it any more.

Re: Are TV apps failing?
When I come to buy a new TV if it happens to have Smart TV on it, all well and good, but it won't particularly factor into the equation.
Having said that, I guess by this time they'll all have it thrown in as standard! |
Re: Are TV apps failing?
Personally I've always bought for picture quality and design first, sound second and smart TV last.

Re: Are TV apps failing?
I have never once used any of the smart TV apps or features on my TV.
I can access all I need on my laptop/Xbox One and tablet/phone. All AV equipment routed through my AV amp anyway so no use for smart TV stuff. |

We are in serious danger of agreeing on something here!:) If Netflix and Amazon were both on the STB, all programmes on your watchlists could also be bookmarked under 'My Shows' as well as having your streaming services in one place. Now you can't do that with your smart tv! |

As that will not be for another five years, I'm not sure what would replace my existing services, but I would imagine there will be more choices available by then. I have an alternative plan mapped out right now, but I want to find a better fit. However, I'm very nearly there now. |
Re: Are TV apps failing?
Saw a message about something else being removed that moved too quickly for me to read properly on my Samsung TV yesterday, anyone know what's being taken off this time?

The likes of Spotify, Netflix et al will carry on developing for different platforms if it can be proved they will make enough money. I think part of the problem is app-fatigue. I think most users are probably getting tired of apps popping up on different platforms, and assuming they use them at all, they tend to stick to one or two devices, ignoring the apps available on other devices.. |
Re: Are TV apps failing?
I have to say I use the smart apps on my TV a lot. Amazon, Netflix, you tube and i player are all lined up next to each other, I find it very convenient.

Same here. Navigating BBC on demand content on Sky is a chore!

Re: Are TV apps failing?
The problem with Smart TV apps is that the manufacturer often stops supporting the platform after about a year and then you get no further updates without replacing the device.
