App doesn't save where you left off viewing. Major flaw. Show listening are poorly organized. Much of the interface is counter-intuitive. Search function should be easily accessible on ALL pages.

Tried to find "firing line" no luck so far..does not keep some of episodes in the season that is showing so you can catch up on missed episodes.

I love being able to watch new shows and rewatch old shows on PBS. To the Manor Born was one of my favorite shows when I lived in Great Britain. Ten thumbs up!

Ovverall very good! Would be great if more info about series was available within one click to decide whether to go further. Ditto the search function itself is not on the home screen. Using Samsung S8. Nice to finally have this service in Canada. We had almost given up on KCTS. Thumbs up!!

Doesn't cast to Chromecast. Also there's errors with everything I've tried. Videos don't load. Content is limited for Canada... Overall, the app. It sucks.

The app usually crashes or produces errors when trying to play a video from the program list. With a routine of restarting the app and timing hitting play on a series of different episodes, usually one will load and properly play, but it requires mental preparation to not become completely frustrated, and some episodes will just always produce errors.

It has produced a network error on every single video I try to play. And yes, YouTube, Netflix and Amazon Prime all work on the same device. 100% fail. I only gave it 1 star because I wasn't allowed to post without at least 1 star.

Nightmare: Many shows unavailable, constantly getting network error, or cannot play audio (?) and pbs passport account is not available on the app so I can't cancel.
