So purchased a GTV Streamer 4k to replace my apple TV - primarily as it advertised the foxtel App (which I use on my bedroom TV. It appears though that this is not supported on Android 14. I cannot understand how both Google and Foxtel can advertise their compatibility without it being functional. As I understand it there are the same issues with Binge and Kayo sports which are also popular in Australia. Does anyone know of a way to obtain a GTVS4K build for Android 13?
Hi everyone- had an update from Foxtel yesterday. They confirmed what we all knew which is that the app isn’t compatible with android 14. They said that the technical group are actively working on a change but couldn’t give me a time as to when it could be resolved. Said it may be 1-2 months.
Hi everyone, just an update from Foxtel. They confirmed that their app doesn’t work with Android 14 yet. Their technical team is working on fixing it, but they couldn’t say when it’ll be ready. It might take 1-2 months.
I have lodged a complaint with ACCC now. Foxtel obviously put a hold on any development while they were going through the sale. Why spend money when the new owners can foot the bill eh?
Yes, ithink we all feel cheated. Foxtel advise they’re working on it but have been saying that for over a year. I went and bought a Hisense smart tv as Foxtel Now does work on it.
I bought this streamer for the Foxtel app also and have since left a review on JB HI-FI's website with the heading "Foxtel Go App does not work" as the app has not been updated and Foxtel do not seem to care about it. The actual Google streamer itself is very good. I would return the Google TV Streamer to JB HI-Fi as they are usually pretty good with returns.
