Will not work with lightning adapter and I assume air play

Complete waste of time signing up/creating an account, and creating a watch list. The app will not work with the Apple lightening adapter/air play even though your paying. There is a decent amount of content from what I saw. You would think as popular as A&E is, they would offer a better app. I’ll go back to the free apps.

App doesn’t recognize my subscription

I subscribed to the seven day free trial today. I’m watching this on my Roku TV but I can’t get the app to recognize my subscription - says I need to purchase a subscription.

Seriously, it’s 2024 and they can’t sync subscriptions across devices yet at A&E?

Playback Problems

I could not get an episode of “After the First 48” to stream, so I downloaded it. As I played it back, it would randomly hop over to different episodes. After trying several things, I still can’t get the episode to finish.

What’s more, I had started watching a different episode originally, which switched to the episode I mentioned above.

Very frustrating. I’m about to decide the app is too flawed to work. I won’t spend 30 minutes watching a episode I can’t finish, especially if I went to the trouble to download it.

Hardly ever loads and content is lacking

It takes me hours sometimes to be able to log into this app. And they only carry a few seasons of each show. It’s pretty pathetic and not was I was hoping it would be.

Disappointed

The only reason I am keeping this app is it has the old First 48 episodes and I like the old detectives. And I go to sleep to this shoe every single night. And most of the time the time like tonight the A&E app doesn’t work. It is the biggest joke and is completely useless and laughable. Thank goodness this one isn’t like that one. Obviously the same idiot didn’t build it. There is also not enough available decent programming on here. I am so utterly and completely disappointed

Survival

I enjoy the different series, these are not actors, they are actually sharing their stories

Aged application?

I along with apparently many other reviewer’s originally had the A&E app and was disappointed with the show selections but the app is free however I did connect my cable provider to the app I still wasn’t able to access all of the shows and/or episodes I wanted and relented, payingFor yet another monthly subscription streamer. However the playback features at least for the iPhone and iPad version are horrendous there’s no fast forward 10 second or however long button, it doesn’t have Picture in Picture, allowing you to still listen while switching to another app like every single other streaming service app I have. It seems a little disorganized and difficult to browse unless you know what you’re actually searching for. and then of course as other people have stated as well to make matters worse it’s still does it have all of the seasons or episodes of each show although you’re paying it’s supposed to be you’re paying for the library of content this provider has that is not the case apparently with this one if it weren’t for all the episodes of cold Case files I would have canceled the subscription already and I’m sure once I go through all these, I will. Unless of course they could update the app to at least be in the same ballpark as most other comparable apps. It’s a shame as I love most of the content 🤷🏻‍♀️

Don't Bother, Limited Content

Very dissatisfied with this app. Why would any service provider offer a paid for app and not have the majority of their content available? On some shows it's not even half the seasons or complete seasons at that! Big FAIL by A&E.

Crime Central

I am new to the app. I am enjoying the content but feel there needs to be more episodes or at least a full season. Having some technical issues with the episodes repeating themselves and not showing they have already been watched. I hope for improvement and and more content in the future. I do love what is offered but just not in the same league as Netflix or Hulu where you get entire seasons. Can and wait awhile to see if this improves.

A&E rating

I am blind before the episodes I try to find it is easy to fine sometimes it’s not even when I search if you made the search more accessible for someone that’s blind like myself it would be great and a lot easier to use.
