| 2024-11-26 |  | | What is going on? Eversince the app updated to the new look I've had nothing but trouble. No it won't work. Everytime i want to continue watching it kicks me out with a pop up that says showmax has a bug?? FIX IT!!! I don't know why it had to be fiddled with in the first place. It was working just fine before the face lift... |
| 2024-11-26 |  | | App keeps closing when I try to watch a show. I have completed all basic troubleshooting necessary. I still have 90GB storage left. So I doubt it is storage related. Cleared cache and data also. Uninstalled and reinstalled, this is frustrating. Subscription has gone down the toilet I guess. |
| 2024-11-24 |  | | What was the point of upgrading this App if it was going to be an emblematic problem? I can't watch for 30 seconds without the App going off. Sometimes it makes me feel like it is intentional. The App was doing okay all this while till I was asked to upgrade it. Now I'm utterly frustrated. If this continue, I will just cancel my subscription. |
| 2024-11-20 |  | | EDIT: All of the shows that were saved under "continue watching" are gone. This is extremely frustrating. First I lost all the shows I was watching when the new app launched and we were forced to update and now this. ORIGINAL REVIEW:I really dont like this new app. I lost all of my lists and there are so many movies that are no longer available. |
| 2024-11-19 |  | | This latest update sucks, I use a relatively premium phone and for the life of me I can't seem to be able to watch Anything on this app without it crashing 😒😒, even downloaded content seems to buffer, like how is that even possible. Fix your stuff Developers learn from all these other smooth streaming services. |
| 2024-11-15 |  | | I've enjoyed the app for a month. When it came to renewing my subscription..its refusing to update my payment no natter how many times I try to pay. I have installed and uninstalled the app several times but it hasn't been helpful |
| 2024-11-15 |  | | It's so trashy. I have been trying to download episodes of my favourite shows. It tells me the download is queued and ends up not being downloaded. Fix it man. It's so frustrating |
| 2024-11-11 |  | | The app is okay but needs work with download management and other inapp functions. It's relatively harder to navigate to and manage episodes that you would want to delete and add. I don't see why there is a "download again" button, yet the app lacks auto downloads like other streaming services. I am certain people subscribe to this with a particular show in mind they want to watch, the least that the app can do is make it seamless. Have us watch the shows we came for with ease. |
| 2024-11-11 |  | | I have just downloaded the App and it won't open, it keeps popping an error that says "Viewing stopped. Something has gone wrong. If the problem persists, contact online support team". Please help. |
| 2024-11-09 |  | | ☆Hi, it's time consuming to keep putting the subscription code why can't the system pick it up automatically & reconnect us automatically cause you have all our details in the system, like the way Dstv comes on automatically after you pay. ☆when signing in please include finger prints as a sign in option & please allow us to use the same pin instead of changing it everytime cause this is a phone app & am the only user i don't see the need to keep changing the password. |
