Product said it would work with Android but after the very long wait I tried to use it with my Sony 850D TV and wouldn’t work. After a lengthy Google search and even calling Sony I find it isn’t set up for Android TV! I ordered the thing several months before distribution and Mohu changed the date at least twice.

Product didn't work after numerous calls with MOHU support. They thought the problem could have been the antenna itself, but having it replaced would have extended past Best Buys free 2 week return policy. I may purchase again at a future date.

I could not even get 1 channel. However, this could be due to my location so I can not say that it does not work well in other locations. But if you live in Plano, Texas do not buy this item.

I am giving this an average only because it is our first antenna and we are not sure if we are using it properly. It's not bad, on occasion we have to move it to get a good picture.

I bought this as a new item but very obviously it was an open box item. It was partially unwrapped and did not come with any manual.

It was working great (see previous review). Then one morning it no longer worked. The "brick" was not warm and the wifi light was out. No matter what I did I could not get it to work. Mohu customer response was nil.

Did not work for me. Although the idea of this product is good in theory, when I finally got it all set up, it did not pull in more than two stations.

Very expensive, and took 2 months to get. It is suppose to be used indoors. We tried it everywhere, all over the house; high and low. What a disappointment. Would not recommend. I returned it...:(

This product is a very good concept...but it needs to return to the testing phase. This will be a cutting edge product in the future.

This product surprised me, in that its ease of use. Once the app is set up in Roku or other devices, it works like a normal antenna and can be placed wherever a good signal is received. Good product.

The antenna just didn't work well in the location I was trying to use it in. The apartment orientation did not allow for the antenna to get a good signal.

I received my Airwave antenna today. I have really been excited about this product. It took me an hour to go through setup. I could connect to the wifi but could not get the setup page to show up. It finally came up on my iPad. I went through setup and scanned for channels which you have to do on every device. Not sure why that is but that is the deal. Anyway, I moved the antenna at least 10 times scanning and got from 9 to 37 channels. The guide is beautiful but video is really slow to load and freezes alot. My main antenna is the Mohu Sky which is the best antenna I have used. It picks up 74 channels and is outside but I really like the idea of an app for everything. If the video were smooth, it would be nice I think but man is it choppy and I am on a gigabit wired connection. I am undecided if I am going to keep it because I would hope these issues could be addressed via software updates. I am using a new Apple tv, fire tv and a Roku tv. $150 is alot of money to ask for something this raw. It feels like a beta release to be honest. I checked and it is definitely on the latest firmware so that isn't it. I would caution people to wait on this one and give them time to work out the kinks. It has some big ones

The antenna and software looks like it may have potential in the future, but after moving around my apartment and rescanning multiple times I struggle to get stations I can get with my un-amplified 30 mile RCA antenna. The guide within the Apple TV app would sometimes not populate after rescanning and I would need to restart it. The picture of the broadcast within the app did not take up the full aspect ratio of my TV as well on Apple TV.
I live within range of all of the local towers, but the picture/audio was jittery and unwatchable on FOX and ABC for me with the Mohu Airwave. It did look smooth and clear on my Apple TV on NBC and CBS though on the Airwave with minimal jitters. As mentioned though, I am able to get a clear and consistent signal for both FOX and ABC placing an un-amplified antenna in the same spot attached directly to my TV using the internal LG TV tuner.
The idea of the product is exciting and I can definitely see the potential once they are able to smooth out the software a little more on Apple TV and beef up the antenna reception with a powered antenna or different configuration for better reception. This feels like it may have been taken out of Beta a little too early and it costs too much to be a beta tester when a $20 antenna is much more consistent.
