Ratings and reviews

I am not a subscriber and will not be. I used to have either cable or satellite (depending on where I lived) but chose to disconnect due to the CONSTANTLY increasing cost. Spending WELL over $100 per month to watch a grand total of three channels seems ridiculous. I get apps for only what I want and pay considerably less. As a result of no longer paying for satellite, I cannot use the TCM app. Paying for 135+ unused channels just to watch TCM well, it's just crazy. Sad, too. I do miss my movies.

The app requires you sign in with your cable provider. For some reason, it doesn't work with DirectTV. I used to be able to just hit "play" and see movies; no more! I cannot use your app anymore because of this rediculous requirement. I'll be Uninstalling and looking for another classic movie source. Very disappointed in this unnecessary change. Thanks for nothing!

I love the look and functionality of the new update (I don't care about the missing schedule), but, recently, every movie fails, saying "an error occurred." I've tried it on 2 very different Android devices with multiple resets of every kind. When I log in, for less than a second, it flashes a webpage failing to redirect to Adobe Pass. I can watch host intros and clips just fine, so I think it's having trouble getting verification from my cable provider. I would rate it highly, if it worked. My one gripe about the update is the shading on the thumbnail. It darkens toward the top left, and, since actors faces are usually in the top half of the frame, it is often impossible to tell, at a glance, who's in it.
