What I Really Like About NexTV
The feature that I really enjoy is having all of my playlists, favorites, groups, and watch-lists in an online account. This means that when I add the app to a new streaming device, everything is there!
TiviMate needs to take note of these features and allow the same login opportunities. They need to allow for an easier registration process like this, as their companion app is less than ideal.
Final Thoughts
Overall, NexTV is a fabulous IPTV Player that works with IPTV Service that offer the ability to use an external app. There are some bugs that I’ve encountered with the companion website where I see XML errors. Also, their Playback feature is supposed to work for IPTV services that offer catchup which allows for going back in time and watching a previously aired program. This isn’t working properly in the application.
There is no record option yet. I really hope that the developer of this application continues adding features and improving the app as this one can be just as good as TiviMate if not better. For more information, check out the official website linked below.
