SYFY for Android
Chromecast. Pause, minimize or do anything and the app restarts at the beginning with no way to fast forward - just more ads. Would gladly upgrade score if would fix.
As long as I don't pause it or have to stop in the middle of the show it's fine. If I do I have to start all over. I can't jump ahead or go back. I love the shows but the app defiantly needs work in order to work correctly.
Overall, good app. However, on Van Helsing, six episodes??? Or, three episodes listed twice. Other than wrestling and several other non sci-fi programs, it is definitely worth watching Syfy channel via this app.
App is completely useless. You can't do anything. If you press pause, rewind, forward,cc, anything it just sends you to commercial and the show starts all over again. App needs a serious upgrade or do over because this one is absolutely useless.
Useless! Not free because you have to sign in with a provider. My provider is Netflix through my Roku. Who is dumb enough to pay for cable TV? That's like being a hooker and paying the John to screw you and then still getting raped and beat up by your pimp!
horrible. haven't been able to watch a complete episode. jumps around severely. app navigation needs a LOT of work too
I use apps from most of the other channels this is a terrible app . Not sure why the app needs to have access to my photos in order to allow me to login. I deleted this app about a year ago and tried it again I'm deleting it again
So many ad breaks it's nearly unbearable. The app isn't user friendly or reliable already. Ad breaks are like the cherry on a tab sundae.
App crashes, shows fail to load for unknown reason and app is difficult and inefficient to manipulate. Netflix and Amazon are putting you to shame.
Shows are good, app is not, keeps saying token expired but will not say what this token is, no real tech support, fortunately other directv channels have better apps.
I need to select my cable provider which I am totally ok with. However, the statement saying that I need to select my cable provider is covering over the list of cable providers.....this means I cannot actually select my cable provider therefore I cannot use the app.
This app is having trouble with buffering and logging in to providers giving error messages like too many redirects (this is for xfinity) Please look into this and help me find a remedy please
App does not work half the time and randomly skips forward. You can't pause shows and the episodes randomly start over
Omg, the glitches are horrible! I can't even go into the settings to stream over my cell data. .
Chromecast support is terrible. Randomly starts it over, can't seek or skip...just starts over.
Fix your app. It's garbage!! Constant buffering. I'm uninstalling this and going back to watching syfy on the tele.
The app tells me I am not subscribed to the channel via my U-Verse account. The app itself is terribly glitchy, worse than The CW app. For whatever reason they only put half of season 2 of Magicians out, forget a few episodes and show the rest of the season. I can't watch 12 Monkeys at all. I'm over it. I pay $150 per month for u-Verse tv. I'm sure I can find other stuff to watch! Thanks for nothing.
I like syfy it got very good programing
i hate this app wanted to watch a show but it didnt work
SyFy is great fun. App is a steaming pile
Crashes and freezes constantly. When it works, it is super slow. Useless overall. Shameful.
Won't authenticate with Cox. Nice.
I cannot log into xfinity. It is telling me that there has been to many redirects not sure what that means
How have they not fixed the scrubbing issue? The developers need to be getting it together and working overtime.
Can't log into my provider. Every other app works. This is the only streaming app that won't log in.
Lag lag lag, buffer, buffer, biffer, lag lag buffer. Sucks
⁉Pittsburgh Panthers Go Panthers Go⁉
Does not do anything!! Can't even sign in
No free shows here. You need to have a cable account.
Its a good app if u don't have shoebox
I like the shows
Until it actually works correctly, it will be deleted.
Syfy is one of the worst networks around, including this app. Shows are nuked months before they are set to expire OnDemand, and then aren't even available on the app, which also hangs just trying to pull up the settings. They leave clips of shows that ended months ago, but maybe a couple episodes of something else, but not an entire season. What's the point? Syfy really doesn't care about its viewers, which is evident by their extremely low score.
Streaming to Chromecast and minimized the app on my tablet. I opened the app again to pause and the app started the show from the beginning. It won't let me skip back to where I left off. Each time I try, it starts from the beginning again. This needs to be fixed. Practically unusable as it is now.
Useless without access to back catalogs of shows. Why even have the ability to sign in with cable subscriptions if you don't have any episodes to watch. That's the whole point of apps in my opinion. This is why people pirate.
Months after I have notified the developer of the issue, there is still a white bar on the top of the screen where the notification bar usually is. I only have this issue on the SyFy and other NBC Universal apps - no other streaming apps I use (which are a lot) have this issue at all. Very frustrating, and it looks like this issue will never be fixed.
Yea this is undoubtedly THE most USELESS app ever created like ever. There are about 7000 effing CLIPS and no entire episodes except for perhaps a few. I wanted to binge on Magicians. I love that show. You seriously only have five damn episodes and then it's like the middle of the season 2! Are you kidding me!!! Just shut down this app. Fire whoever is behind the launch of this trash app and hire some new, fresh creative thinkers to help you start all the way over. At this juncture, this app just simply should not exist and I will never download this app again. Putting out this garbage for us to use and still sleeping at night like you're winning??? Omg I'm embarrassed FOR you! I'd have waaay too much pride and honor to put something so half-assed out there with my name slapped across it! Where is your pride???? So sad and pathetic. I'd be suicidal if I was responsible for this because everyone would know that I was a talentless loser wasting everyone's time! Shut down this app for heaven's sake and save face while you still can. It's worthless and shouldn't exist! I'm pissed and you should be ashamed. Smh
Nearly unusable. I use this app with Chromecast to watch face off, but if I touch ANYTHING on this app the ENTIRE EPISODE restarts from the beginning! If I turn subtitles on or off, if I try to skip back or forward, if I pause it or play it, it starts back over and I have no choice but to watch it all over again. Besides that, its somewhat slow and clunky. Its the only place I have to watch face off..... but this app needs a lot of work, the restarting issue is disgraceful.
The update needed up the ability to "fast forward" you use to be able to advance by the 10 sec button or drag the button to a timeframe if you try that now it starts all over from the beginning.

Great shows, horrible app. 1.Glitches 10-20% of the time. 2. If you stop the show( or it glitches) you'll have to start all over, does not hold your place. 3. Can not download shows. 4. Layout of app is embarrassing, just plan old. It's not 2005 anymore. Please fix, I love the Syfy network, just not it's app.
