I am getting a captcha loop with TiviMate companion.
I have been checking off buses and fire hydrants for fifteen minutes. 
Using TiviMate companion on BlueStack5 on a windows 11 laptop.
Anybody any ideas on what is going on?
no idea, maybe its a windows thing. Just fired it up on my phone and all good.

Just tried it on mine (same setup as you) & didnāt have any problems opening companionā¦with or without vpn on. Maybe close & clearā¦run Fast Task Killerā¦uninstall/reinstall itā¦I guess what Iām trying to say is: just keep fiddling with it till yer head explodes

Just put the app on your phone. It only has 1 function.

I have no idea, I own nothing Apple. Do you have any Android, other phone, tablet, etc?
Donāt think so, but you can put it on a tablet. Unless that is an Apple. I bet you can put Bluestacks on your phone and then you could put the Companion in that.

No. The companion app doesnāt install on IPhones.
That stinks. Iāll keep my thoughts about Apple to myselfā¦Mama always said if you donāt have anything nice to say, donāt say anything at all.

I would have thought so too, but the article I just posted has some sort of a workaround for using the Companion app on an Apple.
Ya but look at this quote:
Once Tivimate is installed, open the app and go to settings > āAdvanced settingsā > āCompanionā and make sure āEnable Companionā is turned on.
Now go into your Firestick TiViMate app>Settings and tell me where you find āAdvanced settingsā?
Yeah, I just re-read the article. It looks more like some guy who doesnāt know what he is talking about.
Although, I betcha he could still install Bluestacks on his hone and then he could get the Companion app.
Either that or just go to Wally World and get the cheapest Trac Phone with a pay as you go plan.
I tried to get a customer to use bluestacks or any emulator. After an hour attempting it, he borrowed his friends Android phone and had it up and TiViMate running in under 10 minutes.

At this point I would call my 5th cousin twice removed who had an Android tablet and ask her to put Companion on it for me.
Same as I posted earlier. The link goes to a site where one of the first instruction is>
Once Tivimate is installed, open the app and go to settings > āAdvanced settingsā > āCompanionā and make sure āEnable Companionā is turned on.
Now notice the āAdvanced settingsā. This simply does not exist in TiViMate on the 4k Max. So there isnāt any āEnable Companionā setting to turn on. Now Iāll have to log out of TiViMate and see if this setting is then available in the āFreeā version.
Gotcha, was just surfing around and found it. I thought maybe it was already posted.
It was and others have told me about this posted option but after a new install on a 4k Max I never could find any āAdvanced settingsā. So I wonder where this came from. We messed around for about an hour and then he borrowed a friends Android phone and we got him up and running in about 10 minutes.

I am going to try an older version of TiviMate companion. Where is a safe site to download it from? A google search shows a lot of sites, but not sure if they are safe.
