Ratings and reviews

It's alright. Still needs some work. Ads make no sense when they don't even show up ninety percent of the time. Why not put them all at the beginning or end of an episode so our suspension of disbelief remains intact? Is that not the point of the entire medium and overall collective of product? I don't mind commercials at all, it's just no one addresses the problem with ads or commercials being invasive. Try innovative. No app on Microsoft store. Overall streaming quality is great. Good start.

Update: They fixed the minimizing issue and added better shows!! So Great streaming app!! Top 3 for sure!! It has good shows. It has lots of ads, but it's also free.. so that's to be expected. My only real issue is that you can't minimize a show to check something on your phone (like Netflix and such) without it shutting off. If it didn't do that, I'd likely prefer it over Netflix these days, and I'd definitely use it more.

App has a lot of issues. You can not scroll to where you want to watch as it will make you watch 2 1/2 minutes of ads to take you. Back to where you were only to watch the same ads over again. I was trying to watch an episode to watch the set of ads at least twice as much as it was suppose to. The count down was bad and would play additional ads after the counter was at 0. Overall experience was terrible.
