I'm not happy with this latest update. 1. It freezes a lot. 2. In the past 5 days I have updated the app 3 times because in the middle of watching, it freezes and brings up the message to update, but nothing changes. Oh, and every update deletes all my downloads. 3. Catchup episodes are sorted in an ascending order. Having to scroll down all 259 episodes just to get to the one you want is not on. The previous one was working just fine. Latest episodes on top. 4. Streaming doesn't update watched

This is a good app. It would be better if some features were constant, like viewing TV shows and movies in catch up based on the channels they aired on. This was a handy feature because you could go straight to the channel you want and see the shows available on catch up. But it kept on being removed and added and removed again and now it's gone.

This application is extremely unreliable and extremely slow. I have to constantly restart this application because of how poorly this app functions. I never needed to restart YouTube TV or SlingTV. This is by far the worst app I have installed on my chromecast. It's ludicrous to think that multichoice actually charge for this service. And why does it present me with error codes that are absolutely useless to me, I need multichoice support to decipher an error message!!! What a poorly written app
