Crashes constantly. WAY too many ads and the same ones at that. Watch and ad then it reloads so you have to watch the ad again and still doesn't work. So sick of seeing that red loading circle over and over. Can't pick up where you left off on a show. Doesn't jump to next episode. So many shows I want to watch but honestly not worth having to deal with all the bugs in the app.

I try to login with my Xfinity account but the link is broken that is used to verify accounts. Both on PC and mobile. When I first downloaded the app it worked fine. A few months later I attempted to login with zero success. I have not been able to login for close to a month now. When the app works, it's great. But when an app is broken for over a month, that's when it gets a 1 star review. On mobile, the link opens a blank white screen, on PC the site responds with, site cannot be found . . .

Good contents, but there are way too many commercials. Sometimes more than 10 repeating commercials played at a time after watching only 2-3 minutes of the videos I want to watch, I should time how long the commercial section is. It makes me spend more than 2 hours watching a video that's only 1 hour long, wasting time and data on more than an hour of commercials. I would quit watching if the content wasn't as educational.
