VUit Hack 2.0.7 + Redeem Codes

VUit is great for watching your local news live or on replay. The biggest flaws are that if you use your control panel it’ll pause what’s playing. There’s no multitasking. If your alarm goes off and you swipe it up to dismiss then your program will pause. For that reason I’m giving a 3/5. IMO it’s the best way to watch your local news stations on the go without a cable subscription by far!

Several months ago, Vuit was unbeatable. It was a fantastic app to catch up on your local news, even if it was a replay because you couldn’t watch it live at the time. Now it has completely irrelevant commercials. Who cares about a car lot selling cars 400 miles away and watching the same 6 irrelevant commercials replay over and over? If anything, that’s a real turn-off for viewers. Now if you happen to miss your local news at the live time it’s on, you’re end up watching a news channel somewhere in Tennessee. Why would a viewer in Wisconsin want to watch a random news channel 800 miles away? Whoever is in charge of this app and it’s content needs to step aside and let someone with some common sense take it over and put it back the way it was.

I use the app to watch Channel 69 news either from my iPad or Apple TV device. However, Channel 69 has not worked on Apple TV for several days, yet the other channels do work. Deleting the app, reinstalling, makes no difference. So I will just use the iPad or mirror it to the TV. Sorry to put that in a review, just see no other place to report it.

Back to the app…it is a good one, and with the above mentioned exception, works very, very well. If I were to improve it I would NOT use the slow time lapse images or vegetation or the parrot during commercial time, but instead would use some screen save type image like colorful changing patterns or similar.

One additional annoyance…sometimes, during commercial break, it freezes up and the you have to out of the program and come back in, then it works again.

The app on this iPad works great, always has, but on the Apple TV device, not so much. To view on TV I will continue to screen mirror from this iPad.

Read a nice article about VUit in the WSJ and decided to try it. Well, I found that it’s one of those things, “That’s not quite ready for prime time.” Appears they have “jumped the gun” on announcing it was ready - ‘cause it “ain’t” ready by a long shot!

Most channels I clicked on were blank with a message saying they were “having technical difficulties.

Too, and it might be the time of day I tried VUit, seems like local news and weather is all I get at the channels that I can receive at all.

VUit seems to be trying to provide streaming of many TV stations around the United States, but at the moment they are struggling. If they don’t iron out their technical problems and carry things other than local news/weather within a few weeks, they might as well hang it up.

I’m tired of businesses using the present day strategy of, “ready, fire, and then aim.” They need to go back to the tried and true business model of, “ready, aim, and then fire.”

I’m glad I can finally watch local news without paying a subscription, but the app can use some touch ups, like PiP (Picture in Picture) feature or at least a background player. But overall, i’m not complaining since it’s free of charge

There are stations on here that are nearby (available on local cable) but hard to pick OTA. I was thrilled when I saw those stations on here and the schedule even shows regular broadcast shows. But it’s only live when the news is on. The rest is repeats of the news. Well one station is completely dark outside of the news hours. It’s kind of funny but sad how it periodically breaks the darkness for a commercial break.

Hope this evolves into something better but it’s barely worth it for just the news.

I just recently updated the app and when I did I noticed that the on demand feature that showed the past shows and newscasts on demand was gone. This is very disappointing to me as I used the feature frequently. I hope that this was just a mistake in the update, otherwise I may have to uninstall.

Can’t log into the app, login screen blank white screen! I tried updating to no avail, same problem. I removed the app, cleaned up and reinstalled the app. Same problem. Not on my end

I guess I’ll just have to use the website instead of the app. Good reason to ditch apps for websites!

Don’t want to load anything not even my local channels, and if it does load then I can’t watch my local channel cause they’ve already aired and have to wait for it so I can watch it later. I’ll just go back to paying extra on my services to watch my local channel at least I know it will be on and I don’t have to wait for or even hope it comes on. This app has gone downhill and just needs to be removed

Very unreliable to bring the app up, crazy slow or will just failed to load the app sometimes Standardize you languages for commercials. I only use it for KTSF. Why Spanish commercials? Annoying inconstancy volume?

I’ll definitely not use this app if KTSF will offer another option for Cantonese news streaming
