So here's my take on the This Old House app. I've tested a bunch of home and DIY apps, and this one's pretty solid overall. The ability to stream all the episodes on-demand is super convenient, and the Insider membership is a nice upgrade if you want the full library without ads. And the content itself is top-notch, as you'd expect from the This Old House brand. But the app does have some usability issues that can be annoying at times. Still, if you're a fan of the shows, this is a great way to get your fix.

Description

I’ve been using the This Old House app for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that lets you stream all the episodes of the popular home improvement TV shows This Old House and Ask This Old House. There’s over 1,400 full episodes you can watch, and they add new ones weekly. Pretty cool if you’re into DIY and home reno stuff.

Here’s what you can do – you can stream the shows on your TV, tablet or phone. There’s also an Insider membership you can get that gives you ad-free viewing and unlocks the full archive of episodes. Took me a while to figure out all the features but it’s a pretty comprehensive app overall.

Look, if you’re a fan of the This Old House shows, you’ll probably really like this app. It’s not perfect – the interface can be a bit clunky sometimes – but it gets the job done. Worth checking out, especially if you want to binge-watch old episodes.
