★★★★★Tommy Williams· Jul 5, 2026
It's a great app, and it's working fine, and it's free, and I hope it stays free forever because when we give it five stars it becomes subscription this tinker Man knows about it even in the shops' people higher up the price when you buy it and this tinker does not steal I guess every human being is that perfect but this app is ok, and it's working fine 💯💩🙄👍❤️

You have to watch 5 minutes of ads before the video starts, so you can't check if you've seen it already. Then, if you want to continue where you left off, there is no option to do so. You have to watch 5 minutes of ads, then skip to where you left off (if you remember) and watch another 5 minutes of ads. And God help you if you accidentally stop fast forwarding too early. Because that's 5 more minutes of ads. Before you even start watching. The picture quality of live TV is also terrible.

Pathetic. Successfully plays 5 consecutive ads and not a single program. Crashes, then you try again. Watch the same 5 ads and another crash. First time trying the app - didn't expect much but ended up with nothing.
★☆☆☆☆Jasmin Kerr· Jun 18, 2026
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 won't even play just keeps coming up 'sorry there was an error'.
