Smithsonian Channel for Android

I have the Smithsonian channel included with my Directv Stream. But the only option to connect a tv provider is Directv Satellite. The two are different accounts. So when I try to connect my tv provider it doesn’t work. There is no option for Directv Stream. With more and more people cutting the cord and using steaming, this should already be corrected.

Also doesn’t have chromcast cast capability which is insane. I’ve uninstalled the app and reinstalled

An app for Mobile that can’t be used in landscape, who thought that was a good idea? Apparently someone thinks a Mobile is just a big Android.

So I understand that many apps allow you to logon thru your TV provider. And I understand that it might be difficult to show them all (along with their logos) on a screen. But most apps have a little link so that you can get to the rest of the providers that participate in this deal. With this app, not so much. If it’s there, I can’t find it. I’ve tried on both my Android and my Amazon tablet. No luck. And it’s not like my TV provider is some fly-by- night outfit. It’s U-verse by AT&T. I find it hard to believe they’re not a “participating provider”. After all, they “participate” in every other app in the world. So what gives? UPDATE: Well, it’s been a year and they finally did put a link on the logon page to show more providers. And they do, indeed, show more providers. But my provider isn’t on the list. I STILL can’t use this app. So that part in the product description that says you can unlock content by signing on with your TV provider? That’s a lie.

With all that is going on in the world, I’m booted from my movie I just began. (I’m sorry we’ve raised pricing, please re-sign into your Dish account. NOPE NOT ME JACK! Sadly they have a good selection of movies, but, so do many others!
