  • What’s the point

    What exactly is the point of this app? I wish it was actually usable where I could listen to audiobooks, watch movies, videos read books etc.
  • Really Awful

    This app is an experience from 1995. Maybe that old? Almost impossible to log into- had to create a new user login 3 times (different emails) and still can only login once. The “help” function is useless.

    I appreciate that this is free and it is a nice concept, but not very practical if it is unusable. Even when logged in (the one time it worked), the search function could not find the movie that I found via a Google search (and it linked me to this site and movie worked).

    My advice is ditch this useless app and just use Google. Maybe it will link to the site.

    Could REALLY use some attention from a UI/UX designer as well, but heck, it is a free site so not high expectations. This reminds me of Windows 95…

    Nice idea if it worked.

  • Decent but could be better!

    Not quite sure what this is used for but i really wish there was a back button so i could go to the previous page instead of completely losing my spot. Especially in the advanced search, i have to completely redo any of the info i put in previously because it doesn't save
  • Won’t let me log in

    The app won’t let me log in even though my email and password are right even after changing and resetting my password it still won’t let me log in saying that something is incorrect but the website will let me log in.
  • i cant believe this is official

    this is probably the worst app i have ever put on my phone
  • why do we have to sign up with an email?

    First of all I saw was in a video and it seems pretty cool, but why do we have to sign up with an email if we just want to try it one star deleting it immediately and this is my only review on it so take it. Seriously thank you
  • No way to sign in

    If you use a Google account to sign in on the web, you can’t seem to do the same with the app. It’s useless if you can’t sign in. What a shame.
  • Swing and a miss

    Have to say, I too was disappointed with this app. I have been listening to old radio mysteries from CBS via the Internet Archive for years. I had hoped that the Wayback app would provide better control since the web interface is very kludgy. I struggle even to find the programs I’m looking for and there are no instruction. Little help please …

  • Share crashes the app

    One can browse the archive captures even of a defunct website. Share used to work OK but now clicking the share icon just crashes the app. Please fix this to make the app useful once more.

    Updated: 2023-08-14 Share still crashes the App.
    Please could the developers take some notice and get this fixed!
