Report an issueThe EyeTV app turns your iPad and iPhone into the ultimate portable television! Access the EyeTV software and hardware running on your Mac at home anywhere you have an LTE/3G or Wi-Fi connection.
App Features • Watch live TV and change channels on the move • Playback your EyeTV recordings • Browse the Electronic Program Guide and view detailed information • Start recordings back home on your Mac immediately or schedule them to record later • View and edit your recording schedules in the recording list • Use the free My EyeTV service to connect to your home Mac via the internet • Stream live TV or your recordings to the big screen via AirPlay
Easy Setup There is no need to reconfigure your local Wi-Fi network. Simply activate the option "iPhone/iPad Sharing" in the EyeTV preferences. Sometimes, fully automatic configuration may not be possible outside of your local network. Please see www.geniatech.eu for details. If you’re using the OS X firewall, be sure to allow incoming connections for both EyeTV and EyeConnect. EyeTV uses port 2170. If that doesn’t let you connect, try turning off the firewall and turning it back on again.
Requirements • Mac with OS X 10.6.8 or later • EyeTV 3.6.5 or later with compatible TV tuner • iPad Air, iPad (iPad 2 or later), iPad mini, iPhone (iPhone 4 or later) or iPod touch (5th generation) with iOS 7.0.4 or later

8 of 25I can get the app to work on my iPhone and iPad when at home on the same WiFi network as my desktop, but I’ve tested in various places on WiFi while out and about, at work, etc… and app is never able to connect to my home computer.
The app is great on the iPad and iPhone and worth the money! BUT WHERE IS THE THE APP FOR APPLE TV?
Three stars because it works with the 6 computers running systems older than 14.0 here but won’t locate the one running Mojave. Needs updating for systems above High Sierra 10.3. (Aug 2022)
Please support TV App. Do something, there are still a lot of EyeTV users that want developer activity.
Please make it work for the latest versions!
I use this app all the time. You need to give us an update that will work on Apple Watch.
got this piece of junk to use like the "EYETV" on my IMAC does not work wants to sell hardware that will not get any TV in my area save your money don’t buy. my rating is zero stars.
I sent a tech support question in and they sent me a case number but over a week has gone by and they still haven’t contacted me. Very poor company. They don’t care about the customer.
