Ratings and reviews

wow, all the reviews highlighting the same problem, since 2023. Clearly the developers don't care to improve the app. Why bother developing it in the first place? You can't pause a show or leave the app for even a few seconds without it going right back to the start of the episode. Which means you have to watch all the adds you've already had the pain of watching again. no resume option. I 've NEVER had a streaming app without such basic functionality.

constantly crashing, even just trying to catch up not watch live. there are so many ads its crazy even if someone calls you or a phone update pops up, when that happens and you return to the show, you get more ads again. but the main issue is starting an episode and it wont even play just keeps coming up 'sorry there was an error'.

Great variety of shows but app freezes a lot, gets stuck on ads. Can give you anything up to 7 ads at a time. If one ad gets stuck you have to start all over again. If you can't watch episode in one sitting it doesn't always remember where you left off and starts at the beginning.
