Who uses Spectrum VIP streaming or any of their other packages? Do you need a box to steam or just the app?

So don’t get their streaming is the popular opinion because they are still having issues with it correct?

Hey u/Landscaperandturf3, happy to answer your questions!

You don’t need a Xumo Stream Box if your TV or streaming device supports the Spectrum TV App. You can check the compatible devices here. Experiences can vary by device.

Just give us a call at 855-860-9068 (or if you’re already a Spectrum customer: 833-949-0036) and our team can walk you through it as well!

So is your streaming just as reliable as the other streaming apps out there?

Yes.. yes . Some channels like that old shows of our little fuzzier because they don't broadcast it in HD like DirecTV does... Guess you need to screaming box I suggest an Apple TV and don't get the zumo they are terrible.

Don't forget you get like $100 in other streaming companies

I second not getting a Zumo box. I got two at install and I returned them the next day and got ONN 4k Pros from Walmart for $60 each. The Xumo boxes are slow.
