Ratings and reviews

Mainly a good app and the addition of Premier Sports is great to see. My main gripe is that watchlists and progress are not synced between devices. If I add a programme to my watchlist on my phone, it doesn't appear as so on my TV. If I'm watching a series on my TV, the episodes I've watched aren't marked as such on my phone. Be great if this could be fixed as many of us use multiple devices to view content these days.

God this app is unbearable, you're better to use amazon prime or just watch tv... just to catch up on a movie I missed, I had to watch 5 adverts at the start, then there was 3 breaks with 7 adverts in-between! Even youtube doesn't do that and at least youtube ads are short and skippable, I think I lost minutes of my life watching those long boring ads, I get that every free app needs it's ads, but you definitely do not need this many in one sitting. Cut down the amount of ads, you're milking it.

It's a good app, it works well 🙂 It doesn't play continuously tho - if ur binge-watching something u have to pick the episodes yourself 1 at a time. it doesn't show u any history or what u watched last - u have to figure that out. here's another heads up - it shows u the McDonald's delivery advert time and time again - I've seen it like 5000 times today alone 😔
