It honestly doesn't work half the time. I thought by the time the new fall line up came out they would have fixed it from the end of the last season but it still refuses to load videos sometimes and gets stuck on ads. Still no log in either so that if I switch which device I'm watching on it doesn't keeps my place. If I didn't like these shows I wouldn't bother.
The app works and gets the job done to watch my favorite CW shoes and they almost fixed a major bug when casting to a Chromecast device. It used to not fill the TV screen, be off center, and have grey where it didn't fill. It's better now as it almost fills my Sony 4K Android TV. There's a very small black bar on the top (half inch) and left (half inch) of the screen. Previously it was multiple inches off. Hopefully it'll be fully fixed but it's acceptable
Works great for streaming. Absolutely exasperating to find where you left off if you can't watch something in one sitting. Should be able to resume where you paused/stopped, without having to search and wait for all the repetitive and excessive number of commercials. **update 12/21: now it seems that at times this app will get stuck in commercials mode, looping them successively, never ending. Have had to completely give up watching shows, mid episode, because the commercials wouldn't end.
One of the worst streaming services I've ever used. 2.5min ads every 5 minutes, and sometimes it would glitch and restart the ads so I would have to watch 5 minutes of ads. Careful not to bump your phone wrong, because if you back out of the movie and go back in, you have to watch another 2.5min of ads. Want to fast forward? Ad. Rewind? Ad. I think I watched more ads than movie.
Horrifying since they redid their application. ALWAYS cuts off while watching the episode. You never get to finish your episode now, but you can watch as many commercials as you want. They also screwed up their home page. It is incredibly confusing, and now there is no way of being able to tell where your shows are or which shows even have new episodes. Lots of junk cluttering up everything. They really need to go back to the way things were.
The old app worked well. Now you can't select the episode you want, and you have to watch a trailer before you can watch anything. Commercials were in the appropriate places now you get Commercials every where you go, along with the additional commercials in the episodes. I used to watch episodes, and the app would just go to the next episode. Now you have to start the whole process over. It's not worth it anymore. Im done.
Your app doesn't work! On my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra I have to close and open the app a dozen times for it to finally work. Every other time I get "an error has occured." On my smart TV, it won't let me pick certain episodes of my show I want to watch. And it doesn't save my progress in this series I've been watching. So I have to try to remember what episode I'm on, so if I close the app or watch on a different device, I can try to pick up where I left off. Fix your stuff!!!
So there are adds, but watching free TV is worth it. I dont have internet or a cable, so my phone is pretty much my lifeline to new shows. If you can't stand unskipable adds, then maybe try something else. But if you're like me and don't really care as long as you don't get adds every 5 minutes, then it seems worth it so far. The only thing I find kinda annoying is that it will pause if you minimize the app, no handy dandy smaller window like YouTube.
I love the app for the arrowvers but if you want to pick up a show you already started on another device, then you have to sit thru 5 or 6 min of commercials. And that's if you know exactly where you stopped on the other device. I was trying to finish my show and every time I skipped forward, it only let me go ten min further then made me watch another 2 or 3 min of commercials. This app is good in a pinch but use any other way to watch it before you use this. Fix all the adds and commercials and I'll give 5 stars.... And I know their has to be some adds and commercials but really almost 5 min worth in one sitting? This is the exact reason I usually watch everything online and don't have cable. UPDATE: I'm dropping my reading down to 2 star from 3 stars. The app has no updates it needs so it shouldn't have any of these problems. it force closes the app every single time! It's like a race if I can get to my show that I want to watch before the app shuts down on me . I can't pause or rewind or do anything. I'll just stick to watching it illegally online. Is that sure as hell lot easier than using your app...
This would be perfect if you had a way to pay for no commercials like the CBS app. But with the commercials that play 3 times in a row its just hard to stay interested in the actual show. I'd almost rather just wait for it to come out on Netflix.... I literally just watched the same exact ad 7 times in a row, how did anyone ever think something like that was a good game plan for their service?!? Someone really needs to rethink this and fast, especially when there are streaming services with no ads at all.... Which I think I'll go watch now actually.
