User Reviews
Service itself is ok. Not great. 1 star is because they have made it very hard to cancel the subscription. Cannot cancel in app. In website, it is very hard and confusing to find the cancelation option
No technical support and local channels are a real pain but rest is good
Should be the best cable streaming app but it’s the most glitchy POS of all the streaming apps I have. Stop changing the layouts and doing this gimmicky nonsense and just make the basic functions work properly. And why does that stupid noise scream at you when you open the app?
Is Sling TV free? No monthly subscription fee or payment to keep it up and running?
Over priced not good for watching MLB and when I cancelled they ended my programming a day early. Definitely would not recommend
9.38.0 crashes on my device, cannot see or watch what I’m paying for! One star is an exaggeration.
Update May 27: I see you’re putting out updates to the app but it’s a crying shame it’s done nothing for stability on the iPad. Still crashing every 15-17 minutes like clockwork. You guys should be made to try to watch a show on an iPad as punishment for the ineptitude. ***Ever since the most recent iOS update for iPad, it’s literally impossible to watch Sling. App constantly shuts down. Restarting iPad, reinstalling Sling, signing out of Sling, nothing has resolved the issue, absolutely infuriating. Get it together Sling
I’ve really enjoyed Sling but it’s very expensive for me now. I might be switching to something else very soon. Otherwise, good selection. 🙂
Tried to use Sling but it’s a pain to interact with. Put your self out of your misery and just submit to Trump Russian and China TV.
Worth every penny! 👌
This app is terrible, it never works right, always gives me errors and won’t even let me make a purchase.
