Good Deal

What is the difference between yours and Prime TV, I have the paid version of it and actually like the concept. Just trying to figure it out so I can make a decision on daily use, thanks.

- live tile (updated when you modify information and every night !)
- news from website like TV.com, tvguide, buddy tv
- possibility to choose between first aired time and my local aired time

I've forget :
- Sort your TV Shows.

Finally, just look at this picture to see who copies who ...

Hi I have the paid version (which was crashing nonstop but updates sorted that out so thanks) and I generally like it .

The live tile isnt working yet. I have 4 shows tonight but the tile isn't showing that.

I like the news feature which includes recaps of the tv shows nice

I wish instead of today and next week I could get a individual day of the week break down ex.

MONDAY
Being Human 9PM
Celebrity Apprentic
Rupaul Dragrace
TUESDAY
the Office
WED
Modern Family
Glee
THURSDAY

That way the shows would be visually easy to scan through.

Hello !

TVShow is a victim of its success and I exceeded my upload quota of my push server. So that's why I submitted a version 1.3 on Sunday with my new servers inside (logically it should arrive tomorrow), so do not worry, the push will come back tomorrow with the 1.3.

For the list, still good news, I just implement it in 1.4, it will be possible to fully customize the application : wallpapers by tv shows, but also the display of the list.

Two modes:
- today, tomorrow, this weekend, next week (current)
- Monday, Thurday, wenesday, etc. ... (your request)

TVShows is your application, I try to add up the features you ask me. So ask!

Unfortunately there is no cooperation, they just pumped the design of TVShow instead to keep their current design.

Their current version does not look like TVShow, but if you watch their videos (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bs4ULdkcxgg), all features that highlight is copied from mine ... It's an honor, but I appreciated that they invent rather than copy.

And a gift for sayonical : I will add SpoilerTV rss in the next version

Even here we can have doubts :

rudyhuyn · Mar 30, 2011

The 1.3 with live tile is now available !

agolding · Mar 31, 2011

hey, any chance you can add the option to change the time to gmt at some point? watch a lot of american tv, would be great to see when its on local time so i can watch over the internet.

jessiethe3rd · Mar 31, 2011

I hate copies... can you report them? I bought the paid version... waiting for the tile

RancoR2k · Mar 31, 2011

Epic! Exactly what I was looking for. Was planning on doing it myself, but you just saved me a lot of work

The app looks really great as well.
Thanks so much!

Would I be right in assuming you'll not be releasing a WinMo 6.x version? If you get a moment, and you have any experience, could you recommend something for those of us who haven't yet got a WP7 device.

I like the UI of your app a lot but I noticed a quirk. When there are shows available next week, the shows are listed as "this week." This week would mean the week it's currently in. I think it would make better sense to use the term "next week".

Hello ! The time is already converted in YOUR local time (I'm not american, so I watch also over the internet

)

Yes, in this version "this week" = 7 next days.

A settings has been added in the 1.4 in order to select :
- today, tomorrow, this week (monday to sunday), next week
- today, tomorrow, 7 next days,14 next days
- today, tomorrow, saturday, sunday, monday, etc...

So you can select how you want to organize your tv show.

I will make a post this week end with all the new features (a lot !!) in the 1.4 version (available tuesday/wednesday)

rudyhuyn · Apr 2, 2011

The new feature of the 1.4 version :

- facebook integration
- News for each tv shows (in addition to news on the home)
- Possibility to change wallpapers for tv shows (manual or automatic
(the app gives you a list of wallpaper relative to your tv show, but you
can also add a picture from your phone))
- A menu to sort the series A to Z
- an adjustment to manage the list "following"
- today, tomorrow, Thurday, Friday, etc. ... (new)
- today, tomorrow, 7 next days,14 next days
or
- today, tomorrow, this week, next week (current)
- TVSpoiler feeds
- a new list in the home page : "last unseen" (show the unseen episodes of the last 10 days)
- customize the 'episode number format' : S02E02, 2x02, Season 2 Episode 2, 2-02, etc...

All this is implemented, I test this WE and release the update sunday or monday

nok_fusion · Apr 2, 2011

great works !!

RancoR2k · Apr 3, 2011

Hey
Looking forward to version 1.4, sound great!

Got also some additional feedback for you:
- improve performance of show-list (I've got 30+ shows and its getting pretty slow)
- setting to hide shows from list, where all episodes were watched
- possibility to mark shows/seasons as unseen
- import/export show list/ seen episodes, in case you have to hard reset your phone (or perhaps a cloud service to sync your account?)

guess that's it for the moment, hope you might consider adding at least some of this in future versions.

again, thanks for the great app!
