    I never had a chance to evaluate before I had to return it. I cannot gig the manufacturer for that but BB might want to reevaluate return time for certain items. 2 weeks went by quickly

      Sorry you ran into that.

      If you do investigate Tablo again, just know that a compatible streaming device may help your TV work with the 4th Generation Tablo. TabloTV

    This Tablo has replaced my Tivo Roamio. The TiVo had finally died. Tablo is not as polished as TiVo, but for the price, it's outstanding. Recommended.

    I'm not sure what's going on with Tablo, but for some reason it doesn't open sometimes. I have to uninstall the app and reinstall it for it to work. Guess it doesn't work with Chromecast!

    Device over 40 minutes to complete the setup due to it freezing over a dozen times and having to reset it and then start over. When it finally did complete the setup it was only visible for a few minutes on my TV then mybTV said the device was no longer on the network, it was visible on my phone for a few more minutes then it also disconnected from my phone. I will be returning tomorrow as I don’t have anymore time to waste dealing with this.

    I’ve had this for two months and regret it. Works with a limited number of devices in limited ways. To use it nay require buying a new tv, an Amazon Fire Stick, or a Roku. Apple compatibility limited to recent iPhones and iPads, not Apple TV.

    It’s says on the package that this works with Apple TV. It does not. They do make an app that works on Apple TV but it only supports an older version of Tablo. I suggest using an HD home run with the channels software if you use Apple TV.

      So sorry for the confusion. Our package references Apple but not Apple TV. The Tablo device works on Apple mobile while Apple TV is coming soon. You can always check the Tablo's devices compatibility here: https://www.tablotv.com/apps-compatible-devices/ TabloTV

    This works well. Hardware setup is straightforward but you have to consult internet or television manual to see how to install the APP.
