  A Google user: Nice job with the live TV help! Quality is perfect, and I am satisfied to be able to watch the international feed as well.

  A Google user: Much improved after the most latest modernize. This feels like a feature-complete apk. The framerate should be better on Shield TV, but that's my only complaint.

  Dave Davenlr: Had this apk on my Android device TV box and it was unbelievable, until the box updated to Android device 10. Nothing I have done will allow this apk run on AndroidTV V 10. It does still run on the TV itself using Android device 9. Needs to be fixed. The actual apk itself is good when it runs. Allows viewing CNN International in HD, where most services that carry it only have it in SD. So, Ill give it 5 stars for AndroidTV 9, and 1 star for AndroidTV 10.

  A Google user: Works fairly well for viewing live programming on the go. There's problems which bring the experience down, though: 1) Commercials are *absurdly* loud versus the programming. Come on. 2) The stream while on Chromecast frequently stops. Please improve stability. 3) The voice command to play on Chromecast only plays old clips. Add an option for defaulting straight to the live stream. 3) Add an option to restrict video streaming to wi-fi only. 5) Give an option to pay for live streaming for the folks who are OTA or wish to be.

  A Google user: I'm very disappointed that you can not watch live television. This is the one feature I was looking for. I guess I will hold using my appletv instead of androidtv! :(

  A Google user: diet/lite ver of CNN. Just a few clips and they will repeat themselves and receive beautiful annoying. Needs improvement, lets see if they will improve after a few months of awful reviews. (modernize Feb 2017, they have not improved it)

  A Google user: Glad it's finally here, but there is no Live TV, only clips. And no access to CNN International. This is a much crippled ver of what has been accessible on Roku and Fire TV for quite some time.

  RabblerouserGT: Non-functional on Chromecast with Google TV. The splash screen loads, then the apk crashes to the main menu. I've turned on/off energy optimization and went ahead and given it permissions from within the app's properties. Nothing helps. It's a shame because the actual apk is nice to have. It just literally does not work right now. I've sent an email to the contact listed on this page. Possible that the devs just aren't aware. I'd suggest all others coming here to report do the same.

  A Google user: The apk is really weak and difficult to use. On apply TV the apk is much better.

  Brian Weber: Installed it and uninstalled it a few times on a Google TV... it installs but then won't begin. The Google ver of this apk simply doesn't work. (Or I could say, this apk doesn't work on Google TV.)

  Jaroslav Sladek: C'mon CNN. It's better not to have any apk than have apk that doesn't begin for months. This does not work on Chromecast with Google TV. Hasn't ever, apparently. It starts launching and then crashes. This is trivial to reproduce, so the fact that it's not fixed is that it has been abandoned by CNN.

  Quynh-Mai Nguyen: Even after doing a factory restart on my android device television, the CNN apk still crashes. Can't search a viable solution on any of the forums online.

  D Galla: The apk does not work. When I select LIVE TV from the top menu, it just shows a blank screen. The apk is registered/loggedin with my cable provider. I have tried force quitting, uninstalling/reinstalling, rebooting the TV, etc., but the apk still doesn't work. Also, considering that the apk is rated 1.2 stars at the time of this review... I assume that CNN is not even trying to fix the apks problems.

  Jason Nash: Like the another latest reviews, I'm having the same trouble where CNN Go just crashes right after it displays it's CNN splash screen and goes back to the Android device TV launcher. It worked ok for me up until around mid November. Now it's been broken for weeks. I've force stopped, cleared cache/data, uninstalled and reinstalled it. Even factory restart my Chromecast with Google TV (which isn't looking like a good purchase now). In the meantime I'm using to Cast CNN from my smartphone, but that has it's own problems too. Might need to bring my Roku back out.

  Scott Money: This apk is still not working on Android device TV (nvidia shield) and has not been updated for over a year. It crashes after the CNN logo comes on. I just signed up for CNN+, was hoping to watch on the large screen.

  S R S: Apk doesn't work. Hold closing down / crashing when opening on Google chromecast TV. Unacceptable for a company like CNN and or Google. Lots of comlplaints for a very long time from a lot of players and no fix or communication from the company

  A Google user: Absolutely ludicrous there is no Live help in the apk when accessible on every another platform. If I wish to view 1 min clips, I'll just go to the site.

  Yolanda Brumfield: I watch CNN exclusive my news coverage, so it's incredibly disappointing that the CNNgo apk is practically useless on an AndroidTV. I can use the able successful on my Android device smartphone, my Samsung TV, iPad, and Roku. But, on my AndroidTV, I can only watch previously recorded shows. And, before you ask, I am logged into my provider service. I have force-stopped, cleared cache, cleared data, and uninstalled the apk multiple times. If the apk is not functional, then don't create it accessible.

  Bruno D: The apk does not work in the Chromecast with Google TV. It has been almost a month and a half since the apk tries to load and then crashes. Guessing Google Play players are not relevant to the CNN apk developers.

  A Google user: Can't receive it to work on one of my Nvidia shields. It plays on my shield television in my living room, and my roku in one of my another rooms(And no not all playing at the same instance,just in case somebody states that the reason my apk will not play),but will not play in my master bedroom. I've tried everything from uninstalling and reinstalling the apk ,clearing my cache but hold getting notice upon starting the apk stating"No network connection detected.Please check you connection and test again".Strange the shield television in the living room and roku are connected through my routers wireless connection, and the apk plays on those two.My master bedroom connection is hardwired thu my ethernet cable, and I hold getting the "no network detected message"Very Strange.

  Matt: Fails to begin every time on the newest Google TV Chromecast device. It was working ok up until today. Tried everything, re-installed, reset, and reboot of my modem/router. No error notice, just shows the CNN logo and "loading" then BOOM, disappears and screen shows home Chromecast page. BAD apk.

  Jonathan D. Thompson: Having the same issues as everyone else. Apk crashes immediately when it gets to the loading page on my Chromecast with Google TV devices on my 3 TV's. Extremely annoying. Hopefully they will have help for the fresh CNN+ service soon which will create this un-useful apk....... useful.

  Matt Klein: As the another 1-star reviews say, this apk doesn’t work and the devs seem disinclined to fix it. Perhaps once the fresh Chromecast becomes more famous and more people demand it be fixed, we’ll receive a working apk, but I can’t for the life of me understand why CNN would release an apk that it so completely broken, and then not do anything about it.

  Mike Malone: UPDATE July 1, 2021. Still crashes on Chromecast with Google TV. Garbage apk. Crashes upon opening on the Chromecast with Google TV. Been this method since Fall of 2020. CNN seems to NGAS about fixing it. Lazy developers who submit shoddy apks like this could be kicked off the Android device platform. In the meantime I'll be watching more CBSN which works flawlessly.

  Opensorce X: This apk does not work at all and CNN does not care! They will not answer to any emails or another inquiries about it. Guess ALL of the people who own Android device TV boxes (including the fresh Chromecast with Google TV) can receive our news from sources that care about us!
