No adobe air required like several other apps I've seen plus it plays video smoothly on my wifi. The chat is a nice touch. So far so good.

Plays really nice on my Samsung Galaxy Mega, video quality is good with no interruptions over Wi-Fi. Just wish I could turn the chat off, and only watch the video.

What good is this app if you can't stop the live stream so you can watch a different video ?

Have tried this on 3 different phones and can never get the chatroom to work. It tells me to choose a nickname. Right. Have done so and it still keeps reading to choose a nickname. The ios app is still the best.

That explains it then, this stopped posting to chat and I wondered what happened to it. If I paid more attention I'd have known, but only use them on occasion. I'll try the new version you made, it's installed but didn't realize these were connected to each other. Thanks for posting information here for us!

Just downloaded the app on Nexus 4 and it looks great. I really like the chat over video feature. One thing I am looking for right now, especially at work is a way to use just the audio stream or have it running when I turn the screen off. Also, I'm not sure what time zone the schedule is in but, that seems easy enough to figure out.

Won't show video in fullscreen, won't remember settings after exiting, have to switch layout and aspect ratio every time.

I just finshed watching TNT while on the BART heading from SF to Berkeley!!! This is a great app if you're a TWIT addict like me & away from your computer. The screen ratio is the only drawback for me but it works excellent on my galaxy note 2. Can participate in the chat room if I choose to, see a schedule of whats on, & choose what stream to watch twit. Its not a fancy (not lots of graphics) app. But a great way to watch TWIT on my phone anywhere!!! Thanks to the creator(s) of this app!!!!!!!

It looks like I'm doing the right thing. I'm adding my NICKNAME. When I tap message it says, "You need to joined a chatroom (Set a nickname first) to send a message." Ideas?

a pretty good video feed app for twit tv. the app always worked for me; however I could never get the video to fill my screen (galaxy note II) like the official twit tv app. the chat rooms are something I can do without. for those of you who don't want to pay for the official twit app, this will do.
