Looking for TV listings....
 

I am looking for an app that will give TV listings, and even set up reminders to your calender. I have played around with a few, and either they don't work as advertized (I can't get TV2nite to work the way I want it should), or (asn in XDA) are Dutch, and don't give local listings. Does anybody know of an app like this, or have any ideas on where to look?

Appreciate any info!!!

For TV listings take a look at this app.

Thanks for the fast response, I think this was the one I found in XDA yesterday. The poster told me it only listed Dutch listings, and you couldn't change regions/areas. On the link you sent I did find this line:

"- 17 channels information in Netherlands and Belgium."

Do you use this? Do you know if this would work for me being in NY state?

Thanks again, I appreciate the rapid response!!!!

No sorry, I don't use it. I just saw that it said tv listings and assumed it worked in the US.

found another.

Wow...your really on the hunt here!!!!! LOL

I looked at this one, and the thing that got me, is that the app is free, but you have to subscribe to get the information!!! Please don't get me wrong here, I don't want to sound cheap, but if there is a good app that somebody spent a lot of time on, I will pay/donate to use it, but is just irritates me that the app is free, but the data plan that I already pay for I have to pay more to have just data imported! I guess I just feel the money is going to the wrong place!

Sorry about that rant! I will look at this and weigh the quality with the price.

Thanks again, I appreciate all the looking your doing!!!!

I just read this on their page. Click Register and you will see the following:
Note: Pocket TV Listings is now available free of charge! There is no need to register.

Hope that helps.

Really.....I will look again!!!

OK....I see what you mean...that is for the actual software, on the main page, about half way down, you see:

Installation Instructions

Before you can use the program, you must setup an account at Schedules Direct. This is what allows the program to get the actual listing data.

That is to import the raw data to the app, this is what you subscribe and pay for.

You're right, I guess I just got fixated on the word free and did not read much further.

LOL.......I'm with ya!!!!! Who doesn't like the word 'FREE'?!?!?!
