What are users saying about DStv Now

Dis new upgrade is absolutely useless. As I can't watch anything again it kept saying link ur dstv account. Same phone I have been using to watch before now an agent says it can no longer work what is d essence of an app if it can't work on a mobile phone.

R70%
by R####:

The split screen mode on Android 7.0 Nougat is quite buggy. You might as well remove it since it basically doesn't work and downloads always freeze for somw reason. Also, I can't keep coming here after each update to complain about what now messed up with the app. Get a new developer or start over again. Your app is a mess.

D70%
by D####:

Never works on game day. Either useless servers or inexperienced coders. Please check your network connection whenever there's a big sporting event. Absolutely rubbish.

B70%
by B####:

DO NOT BOTHER DOWNLOADING. A useless app. It says that 'My DSTV' is not available in my country (Nigeria) and I cannot even get simple information like my subscription renewal date. For me, the app is as useful as a pair of sunglasses on a lamppost.

E70%
by E####:

Though upgraded to the latest version of the app and on Compact, I cannot stream live TV or Catchup content. Keep saying the service is available to premium subscribers. I have an Explora

Dstv Now was working perfectly on my hot 4 device until I upgraded to Nougat from Mashallow since then the message I get is link your account and when I follow the link I get a message ur account is linked yet I can't access anything cos it will keep showing link account, pls do something fast

Works pretty well on my phone and tablet but not available for my Nvidia Shield. Any chance that this device is enabled? It is compatible with other devices such as the Mediabox. This should be technically possible. Edit: Casting from the app not working.

by R####:

Not available on a rooted device? So because I opted to delete the bloat Vodacom loaded I can't watch dstv? Simple solution, cancelled my dstv subscription.

This app was pushed onto my phone with some bs pushed update. Why am I not allowed to remove this app from my own phone? edit: OK in that case a rating of 1 would not be fair

by R####:

It keeps failing with Failing to finalise download. Have not been able to download any thing. Had high hopes. 5 devices nonsense, can't even work on one device.

Hi. I am a Dstv compact plus subscriber but the live tv content on my dstv mobile is never the same as package subscribed. Usually have Select and Select2, CNN but availabe for streaming on my mobile.

H70%
by H####:

A very temperamental app, only works when it wants to, it complains about 'no connection' on a fast home WiFi, streaming quality on Catch Up is so bad whether streaming on the smartphone or Chromecast, Chromecast keeps giving the error 'Sorry, there was a problem playing the video'. Clearly not ready for prime time.

by R####:

Still battling with buffering. Why can you not get this fixed. What's the point of watching a circle going around. After a while it isn't entertaining anymore.

O70%

Download keeps giving me errors. So that makes it pretty useless. Guess I'll stick with Netflix.

Trying to retrieve password. OTP is invalid on every attempt. Deleted this app a year ago and deleting it again.

Why not add a BoxOffice button to update your BoxOffice account and ability to store card details to make renting movies and payment thereof easy! Such a mission to rent a BoxOffice movie.
