The following tutorial will show you How to Access The TV App for streaming live channels and sports on your preferred device.
The name The TV App may be a bit deceiving though as this resource is not an IPTV application but a website. This top-rated live TV streaming website provides free channels and more with little to no buffering in high definition.
There are various categories to choose from for both Live channels and Sports. After testing, we have found that links play extremely fast with no buffering whatsoever.
Users can access The TV App on nearly any device including streaming devices such as the Amazon Firestick, Fire TV, and Android TV. Unfortunately, navigation via the website is tricky on these devices which is why we recommend using the Kodi Addon.
If you choose to use the official TV App website, you will likely need to cast to your Firestick or Android Box. This means that jailbreaking your Firestick is not necessary to use this option.
The TV App appears to be designed for phones, tablets, and computers so using it on a TV with a remote control isn’t ideal.
Streaming channels and events that we can see on the website work perfectly fine with no issues.

Unfortunately, when attempting to scroll down through the channels list, there is no way to do so which means we can only select a handful of options.
This is why we strongly recommend using the TV App Kodi Addon as navigation is much simpler to use than the website on streaming devices.
Those who prefer to cast can easily do so on Firestick, Fire TV, and Android TV from any device including PC, iOS, and Android phone/tablet.
In the guide below, we will show you how to cast to Firestick or Android Box from PC. However, you can also cast to these streaming devices from your iPhone, Android phone/tablet, and more.

Before I access this, I first want to scan the official website with VirusTotal. Here is the screenshot of the scan results.

TheTVApp Premium Service
TheTVApp has launched a premium IPTV service called TheTVSub. Users will see the newly added yellow Premium Service button in the top right corner of TheTVApp Website.
This new service provides access to over 5,000 live channels, 11,000 movies, and 3,000 TV shows. See our new video and review of this new service linked below.
The TV App Features & Details
The TV App is a fabulous resource for live-streaming channels and many are referring to it as a USTVGO alternative.
One of the best features The TV App provides is the sports options not found with other Live services. Upon testing, we have found that nearly all channels work very well with little to no buffering.
One thing to note is that streams do not always play in high definition. If you are looking for HD-quality live content, we suggest using a quality IPTV Service.
As noted above, The TV App website does not function well on streaming devices. If you must watch The TV App on a streaming device, we strongly suggest Casting or Mirroring from a PC or mobile device.
