The tvguide app has stopped working on my iPhone. It is working on the ipad, but on the phone I am now just seeing a blue patterned screen with United Kingdom on it! I have removed the app several times & re-installed it with no improvement. Is there anything els I can do?

Tv guide suddenly stopped working on my iPad. All I get is a black screen with United Kingdom bottom left. I have deleted it and re-installed it but still won’t work. My husband has a much older iPad yet it works on his.

The TV Guide app was working well until a couple of days ago. I uninstalled and reinstalled it and now all I get is a black screen with the words “United Kingdom” in white lettering.

There are no listings listed for this evenings’ television shows. What gives?

By Becky Terrell   1 year ago


iPad I get the following error. “We couldn’t open the page you were looking for. Reload the app and try again.” I have done ALL of the Apple things also. At least 10 times over the last two months: delete the app, hard shutdown, regular shut down, reload the app. Make sure I have enough memory, make sure I have background scan turned on, turned my Wi-Fi on and off (including forgetting my connection altogether). So maybe you can just fix the app, since I see a LOT of complaints about this??

I am unable to get listings. I just get a black screen. This has happened two days in a row. Rebooting iPhone does not help. Uninstalling and reinstalling app helps. I do not want to have to do this every time I open app. Top of page shows that the app cannot be opened.

App won't accept my sacramento zip code 95819. Says it's invalid

By Allan Mears   1 year ago


iPad I get the following error. “We couldn’t open the page you were looking for. Reload the app and try again.” If I look at details for a program, the page opened. However the error message covers up the back symbol so I have to close the app. To get out. Allan

Why do I have to keep reloading the TV Guide app? I have an iPhone with the latest iOS. It works for a day or two and then I have to delete & reload. Why? Very annoying

By Lisa Riggs   1 year ago


Can't get past the Dish satellite button. Won't scroll to streaming at the bottom. And when it used to scroll to the bottom won't go past the streaming button. Tried everything help

I too can no longer see all stations listed for Direct TV just like previous posts. I reported the problem to the app developers and they said I needed to contact Direct TV. Can anyone suggest another app?

By Elaine Chutorash   1 year ago

I can no longer see all stations listed for Direct TV just like Susann Burrow posted. I can also only see about 30 stations. Please fix this problem. It’s so infuriating!

By Ed Franceski   1 year ago


App for iOS. Can only see about 10 of my previous 50-60 selected channels. Can’t even search for other channels.

By Susann Burrow   1 year ago


The TV guide app does no longer show the Direct TV option under satellite for zip code 76571. It only shows the Direct TV option for cable and that only lists about 30 channels.


Common dislikes about TV Guide app

- Update changed and took away features and options

- Harder to read times and see time slots

- Watchlist displays upcoming shows in a slideshow that must be manually scrolled through

- No list of upcoming shows organized by day

- Cannot adjust settings, such as choosing a different start page

- App was rewritten from the ground up when it was already working quite well
