Works fine to chg channel on D2G. BUT needs better control for OnDemand watching, can choose "watch" but then only goes to OnDemand Episode screen then need remote to choose Watch/OK to actually watch selected show. Would b gr8 to c more tv-like controls like Last & Volume +/- . Otherwise works with Droid2Global

Very good app.

It is pretty impressive, but hey Devs, is there a possibility to view TV from the DROID? zebras.galore@Gmail.com

No landscape

Looks nice, good features, listings only show up on the half hour and no landscape view is annoying. HTC thunderbolt

Best guide app for Android, at least for Comcast.

It's a shame there's no way to filter out channels I would never watch, nor to search in program descriptions (searches are restricted to titles only), but otherwise this app beats the TV Guide and TV Listings apps hands-down. Obviously of no use unless you're a Comcast customer, but if you are, it's clear, concise, attractive, and takes good advantage of a large tablet screen. No 'net issues here. Only other real complaint is that it's landscape-only, although to be honest that choice somewhat makes sense.

Wow too bad this would not work with my new android tablet. Ccomcast needs to do better. This. Was one of the reasons I bought this.

Doesn't Work

Used to work. Weird, Comcast makes a piece of crap app? I guess that's keeping in line with the rest of their stuff that doesn't work. HTC EVO

Needs streaming.

Just moved over to the Galaxy S II from the iphone 4 and was disappointed to see there is no streaming for android. Bring on the streaming.

Great

Wish there was a way to select the last channel, like the last button on the remote. Instead of scrolling through the tv listings.

Disappointing

So you release the app but don't include the same functions as the iPhone, like watching the shows on the the device.

Error
Frank - 2011-09-15
I used to get an unknown error because I moved the app to the SD card storage. So I moved the app back to phone storage then it worked.
