★☆☆☆☆Robert Hoeller· Jul 5, 2026
Oh wow, what an awful app. Trying to watch something from restart program mode, then it crashes, and I have to restart from the beginning again. Happened 3 times this afternoon and now I give up. Why don't you allow us to skip to the part where it stopped? Also, when watching a download, and I want to skip to the middle of the download, I have to watch 4 minutes of ads every time I skip forward. Earlier today I had to watch 8 minutes of ads just to find the right section of the download. Sucks!
★☆☆☆☆Samji· Aug 6, 2026
I pay for no ads and still get MULTIPLE sets of ads on every show (ads for Channel 4 shows). Come on, this is unfair.
★☆☆☆☆J· Jul 2, 2026
10 minutes into using this app and watching a show, 5 adds start. Watch another 5 minutes, and it gives you another 11 adverts in one sitting. 16 adverts in the space of 15 minutes is excessive. We just deleted it and used another streaming app
