    I received a message from Tivo yesterday saying that there will be an update coming from the app store later this year that will delete all recordings on your iOS devices when you download it. Be aware.

    CORRECTION:

    This message stated that "The next scheduled TIVO APP update is later this year. Please note when you update the app, all of your downloads will be deleted."

    This referred to my downloads on my iOS devices only. I apologize for the confusion.

    Yes. I remember seeing the warning on my iOS TiVo apps. I have it installed on multiple iOS devices.

    I don't suppose anyone happens to know if there is a way to get a download off of the iPad app? My wife deleted the source from the TiVo for space, but the recording can't be replaced (it's a local PBS recording that our family happens to be on). I'm resigning myself to some sort of screen recording app or even just pointing a camera at the iPad for an hour, but hoping there's something a shade more elegant and likely to have better results. (Although I confess the "camera recording of an iPad screen" is likely to result in a home video with some degree of charm, like an old 80s camcorder video...)

    Contact the local PBS station. Maybe they can provide the recording.

    Sure would like to know when this is going to happen so I won't lose all my stuff when away on vacation.

    Just turn off auto updates on your phone and you will be in control when you want to update it on your devices.
