Ratings and reviews

6/19/24 ;I don't understand the high reviews of the app. I feel there are false reviews here. Seriously the most awful glitchy app i've ever use. When it works, it's good. Another thing, The sound and The headphones glitches at least every 30 minutes.. So disappointed since that is the main reason I subscribed. That said, the app stalls, disconnects, the sound will get static and then just disappear, the app needs to be reloaded. Just some of the things I've experienced in 2 days use.

It can take a while to load. By that, I mean you'll never be able to pull it up in time to skip an intro or pause/rewind an important scene. For some reason, it takes even longer if it's already connected to the only TV on your network. Then you have to go through the whole home and device selection. It'd be far better if they came up with an official lite app, that didn't have all of the other nonsense slowing it down

Most times if my remote is lost and my phone has been connected to the TV with in the last 15 minutes I do not have to restart my wifi connection on my phone. But if the app doesn't connect to the TV I'm Looking for ( I have 3 ) then turning the wifi off and back is almost always a sure fire way to get my phone to see the TV's. But it's being extra stupid tonight and my app is up to date.
