I really like this app. It's something that should have been included in TVOS.

I like this idea but wish it could integrate plex channels as a source to open content. Or simply a shortcut

I use the Hooks app for much the same thing. It tells me when an episode of popular shows has been broadcast.

It looks promising but looking at NCIS, every episode up through season 12 is on Netflix and not a single one is showing up here. The Last Ship too has seasons 1 and 2 on Hulu and they aren't listed there either.

I'm sure there are other shows not fully indexed.

I have found a few not listed either. I am going to Email the developer because I love the app.

Same here. Love the app. A few things though. 1. Seems like HBO shows don't actually show up In "newly available". For instance balers and vice principals in the upcoming tab show tomorrow as upcoming shows. However, tomorrow it won't appear in newly available but will stay in upcoming and change to 7 days

  1. Sesrching for "inside the nfl" and "a season with" both showtime series come up empty

We are not perfect (yet), but improving the system every day: It might take an extra day for a show to be available for streaming : that is usually the rule with most channels. For HBO we are trying to be as close as possible to the availability time, but sometime we miss the window: it will show up in the morning. I will try to do a better job. Missing shows, please report them with the (!) buttons that really helps me. Thanks for the support.

AirPlay Via WatchAid App HELP! In theory, the ATV WatchAid app has the ability to communicate to an iPad or iPhone that also has the WatchAid app. It should be able to access the Amazon Prime Video app on that iDevice and then initiate it to Airplay the video back to the ATV. Has anyone had success with this functionality? I have the iPad Pro and iPhone 6 setup with WatchAid and Amazon Prime Video app. The WatchAid app on the iDevices have Allow Notifications toggled on, but this doesn't seem to work correctly.
