This application works fine if you only have one list, if you have more than one list the organization of the lists is a mess.

for example, if you hide a channel in one list and in another list has a channel with the same name it will be hidden too.

When you organize a list, you disorganize the other lists if they have channels with the same or similar names.

It doesn't matter if the providers are different. when you organize one list, you disorganize the others.

Unfortunately yes, but it works with OTT Navigator v1.6.9.4 Build 23071804. My hope is i can update to the next version without losing anything and the next version does backups, otherwise i need to backup to a txt file, copy and paste and thats :sick:

Not entirely true, i'm not sure how you organize but i just select favorites and then use them all mixed up... :D

Yes sometimes spain/france/uk category has channels all mixed up, but if you put the name correctly you know to which portal they belong, then just pick favorite channels and done...

Tip, you can create a category and put channels from different providers there, you can rename channels, problem is it's way too much waste time when most of the providers work fine for ~weeks... :?

It's true for me. And I know how the app works ;)

I have 3 lists from different providers, if I hide a channel in one list it also hides in the other 2, if I organize one list it disorganizes the other 2. I close and open the application the others lists are disorganized even with those providers are deactivated.


And it works like this because the settings are not only saved locally, but also online.

and this causes the lists to become messy.


If you delete a list and uninstall the app and then install the app again, sometimes the list you just deleted appears without you adding anything or restoring the backup.

Even if you clean the cache or data. The list you have delete sometimes appear again, not always, sometimes.

There is a lot of information passed on to the developer in the background.

You can almost consider this app is spyware. ;)

Yes, but not only on this app, i mean tivimate and other pro apps, i always need to hide categories i've hidden the day before...

Meaning, it's not the app, it's other people using that same playlist and sometimes they configure it in provider enabling/disabling category/channels...

Still i believe every iptv app is sending some stuff to developers as i can see lot of traffic going both ways when watching channels and on tivimate when recording, it's a parody, but it records fine...now what it does in background, for me personally i can care less, nothing on that box as any info from myself, neither google account and i'm using a vpn always, so probably too many requests that probably end up attacking themselves LOL :lol:

And what's the worst they can do to people like us?! we don't pay for this, we don't have money, lol they know who they should target...

Strange mine works just fine. Also the main folder I have 8 providers and all the channels and folders show for each provider in its respective folder. You can FOLD channels in settings so all say.."MTV" channels are condensed to one. It will scan behind the scene each "MTV" channel til it plays one that works. Also as far as disorganized, like the main folder/provider list press and hold a folder then rearrange it in the list how you want it.

OMG people...stop posting issues that Arent issues. My backup works and has worked perfect and i just updated to this version. Ive uninstalled and reinstalled about 4 new versions in the last year, always do FULL backup and then install the backup to the new version. Never has one issue.
You know many of these issues may just be that the person using this app may not understand what settings are or do. There are alot of settings I admit, but just go into them and start playing around with them. Only way your ever gonna understand them.

Go to settings and save a backup of ALL settings including the providers. Write down the code. Uninstall the app. DO NOT clear cache or data before uninstalling. Just uninstall it. Install the latest version and right when you open it go to settings and click Restore backup, enter the code you wrote down, done.
