This is a great app!
Probably the one downloaded app that I use the most, at least a couple of times a day. Really good work to all involved.
Also, excellent timing with the olympics on.
The only suggestion I have is an easy/fast way to view what is being shown 'right now' on tv.
Awesome. Great stuff!

Did you know you can tap the date button top left, then "Go To Now"? Or is that not quick enough?
We're hard at work on version 1.01 now. Should be a good update  |

Will 1.01 be available on the US store? Or the UK one?
I don't have a card I can use here in Australia to set up an account yet

Just downloaded. Great app. You can see the thought and effort that went into it, so as its not an effort for the user. Great job. Highly recommend.

Should be possible.
Some more info:

Unfortunately it looks like even if you change iTunes to the Australian store (at the bottom of the iTunes store home page), it allows you to view the IceTV app but when you try to download it, it gives the error: "Your account is only valid for purchases in the US iTunes Store."
I was finally able to get it to work though. The trick is to go into the iTunes store on your computer, and click your email address in the upper right corner to view your account settings. Then change your country to Australia there. If you have any outstanding song credits, it'll tell you that you have to use them first, before you can change your country. Once you've changed the country, it'll walk you through the process of creating a new iTunes store account, including entering your credit card info again (even though the IceTV application is free, you still have to enter valid credit card info to setup the new store account). I noticed that while entering my credit card info, I had to enter a 4-digit postcode for Australia, as well as select an Australian state from the list provided. Also, when I entered a US credit card, it rejected it, saying it wasn't valid for Australia (not sure why, it usually works fine). But after entering a credit card that was issued in Australia, it worked, and created the account. Then I was finally able to search for "IceTV" (be sure to change to the Australian iTunes store at the bottom of the store home page first), download the app, and sync it to my phone. :-)

We really need to write up a big help doc for it with some demo videos. Hopefully soon!

If only the IQ2 remote recording was this good! 
(And sorry, we're not legally allowed to include Foxtel TV guide data in our products.) |

I ended up having to delete my Mac from devices in my account settings and now it (the status) shows it will record on my Media Centre.

This should be fixed now.
It was a bug on our server, not that app... so nothing needs to be done on your iPhone to see the improvement. |

It would be awesome if this app could do remote scheduling to a Topfield running Toppyweb, not just the one model it supports...

I don't think that would be developed in house by IceTV, but we do have an API that the ToppyWeb developer could use to get the recording info back to the Toppy. If you know the guy who wrote it then please ask him to get in touch if this is something he wants to do. |
