History Hit has much to choose from, from every era. I can always find something to watch or listen to no matter what mood I find myself in, ancient or modern. I do wonder if I am missing something when searching, I don't find the hundreds of videos that advertising led me to believe were available. That said, the historians and presenters have all been worth my time and attention.

I've just started the trial and was excited to watch some documentaries that I'd seen the commercials to. But it takes 3-5 years to load anything. And I don't feel like that's an exaggeration. I've been waiting an hr for something to load or play. My wifi is just fine. I wanted to make sure it wasn't me, so I downloaded it to my phone too and have had the same result. No sense in keeping it if I can't watch anything. Hopefully they will fix this.

Incredibly clumsy to navigate videos. It seems impossible to cancel subscription. Must login to website (can't use app) go to "account" then it goes to another login that won't accept password. The only help they give is to cancel through Google. Content varies from good to god awful. Many titles are just history buffs sitting around discussing things, and often they're far off base it's as if they're making it all up. Sub par for even YouTube.
