User reviews

App needs to be updated/fixed. Have plenty of issues where things are not loading. Searching for movies/shows i know are on the cw but will not appear even after looking it up. Trying to click on a movie that's on the screen but then will proceed to a blank screen not even loading the movie up.

Couldn't do anything. Didn't give me a choice to login or have a subscription which is fine, but the second I opened a show, the ads played just fine and then it bugged out and wouldn't start the actual show. I tried this about 4 times and eventually it gave me an error and booted me from the app. I couldn't open it even after force closing the app twice. Despicable, you should do better so I can enjoy your shows.

This should be called the commercial watching app. They have more commercials than any other streaming service that I have. If something comes up and I have to close the app for a moment it makes me watch the same commercials all over again. The other streaming services that I use realize that those commercials have been watched and doesn't make you, watch them again.
