Ratings and reviews

Hello, long time fan of the show, been watching on twitch for years, but since the price is going up I've made the switch. However, this app makes my phone run really hot and uses a lot of battery. It would be greatly appreciated if you would work to optimize the app, my galaxy s22 ultra shouldn't be having issues running a video streaming app and dying after about 5 or 6 hours instead of lasting 10-12 hours and not running hot. I can stream cloud games for hours without killing my phone.

This app is great! Finally I can get Critical Role content immediately without supporting twitch! Here are my suggestions to improve the app 1. When watched on the website the ratio is too large for the screen. I have to full screen it to see the whole video. 2. It would be nice to have an indication marker on the videos you have already watched 3. The app crashes a lot 4. When I'm done watching a video you should show me some more options to watch. Ex: the next Ep, cool down, 4 sided dive.

Love CritRole, love the content, and love the concept. Happy to support them directly. HOWEVER, the app definitely needs improvement... 1) Ability to control playback from lock screen. 2) Ability to control playback from drop down status & notification menu 3) Ability to control playback with headphones (attempting to just starts and stops music app, even playing over beacon's audio) 4) improvement to episode progress recall 5)Battery optimization 6)Ability to download/ schedule auto downloads.
