    It has most of the shows but the app itself is kinda complicated. Once you enter the app, shows will immediately start playing in random order and combinations. Also there isn’t any “account” that you can make for yourself if you need to login on a different device. You’ll have to go through the entire process of logging in with your tv provider all over again, and if those aren’t written down somewhere this gets pretty tedious. All and all I wish the app was a little more organized. I think it should bring you to a home page where you can choose which show you’d like to watch and which episode you’d like to start on. I also think that you should be able to make a personal account that links the tv provider info to an account that you can use on different devices.

  • Good shows but terrible app

    Cartoon Network has good shows like Gumball and Adventure Time at your fingertips, but the application itself is terrible. It automatically starts playing a show every time you login, most of the time something you don’t want to watch. Then you have to go find the series you want to watch, each time it opens up the latest episode to air. So then after closing yet another episode you want to watch you have to scroll to the episode in the list you do want to watch, this often times crashes the app or freezes it up. Not to mention the obnoxious ads. Every time you open an episode it plays two ads 30 seconds each. This isn’t too bad, except they play each time you start a new episode. So to get to the episode you want to watch you have to close those ads each time. Then after you finish an episode it plays 3 more minutes of ads. This is dumb on their part because the only part after this ad is the credits.

    So to recap, to watch one episode of a 10 minute show, I have to skip two separate ads, scroll through several screens, and withstand the terrible layout and crashes of the app.

    Cartoon Network is already killing itself with the new terrible shows they producing, they don’t need any help with a completely useless app.

  • Some shows are not for kids

    Hi, Cartoon Network I am a HUGE fan of your shows like teen titans go, unikitty (my fav 😍), etc. However, Their are some shows I think you sould take away. I know some people love them, but 4 year Olds are finding bad shows on your acc. Like the teen show Total Drama. My 7 year old brother ALMOST watched that show. Thank god I grabbed the remote. 😌 Let me give you a review what total drama is about. It shows men half naked, snotty girls, and swears. But I'm very greatful you made a new one were there kids and do kids stuff (the new kid show is total dramarama). Also, "the amazing world of gum ball?" More like the GROSS world of gum ball! One day I was at a hotel, and nothing was on but the amazing world of gum ball, I watched it, and it was showing this pink triangle licking his lips! GROSS 🤢!!! Nothing kids sould see. Thanks for reading and have an awesome day!! 😊☀️

  • I have a concern....

    Hi Cartoon Network, I love your shows like Adventure Time, Uncle Grandpa, We Bare Bears, The Powerpuff Girls, and especially Steven universe. I got this app because it said full episodes and I thought that was guaranteed to be great. And it is, but i am having some concerns. I started watching Steven Universe, season one, and it’s amazing. I’ve finished it, and I want to move on to season two, and three, and four and all of them. So i thought I could find what I was looking for on this app. I went to the Steven Universe show, but I found that it does not provide all the episodes to season two, three, four, or five. I was disappointed because I really like this show, and I wanted to start at season two, episode one. Not episode seventeen.... so was I doing something wrong, or did i press something I wasn’t supposed to, because I was really hoping to get all the episodes to watch. Just wanted to confirm that this app is helpful but doesn’t give you all the episodes you can watch. Could you maybe provide all the episodes? Thanks, and have a good day.

  • Good App, Functionality and Content

    I’m really rather pleased with this app. Being away from home makes it hard for me to watch and catch up on episodes, so having an app like this is really useful.

    For one thing, the commercial time is less than that of a regular broadcast which is definitely a bonus. The shows, once you get past the first “playlist” generated for you, are easy to access and view. Not to mention that everything is really well designed and easy to manage.

    A few of the settings like the feedback portion of the app are like wonky, but I don’t think they really inhibit anything.

    I think the biggest drawback would be the fact the somethings are excluded. Shorts like Villainous aren’t on the app and a large sum of episodes for some cartoons are missing. I’m not really sure if the episodes get cycled every now and then, though if they are that would definitely help with the missing concern issue.

    Overall this app is really great and makes watching shows much easier to accomplish then if I had constant access to a television. Especially considering I get to pick which episodes I want to watch, instead of what is being aired. Not to mention it’s a lot easier to keep up with shows now as new episodes come out. The perk of not having to worry that teen titans go will probably come on next is also very very nice.

  • Ok I guess

    I say it’s a good app, and I just so happened to download it when it all episodes were unlocked. I don’t have cable, and I heard season 8 Ninjago was on here and I really wanted to watch a better quality version. Of course, I was expecting ads. That’s how they make money right? But I was mistaken, and I only saw ads put on there by Cartoon Network. I don’t understand how they would be making money, unless you had a cable provider. Less and less people are using cable and satellite because of more shows being available on Netflix, iTunes, and other online sources, so less and less people are going to be able to use this app to the full extent. I saw another review which suggested a monthly payment. I like that idea.
    Now the app worked perfectly fine, and I never encountered any bugs, which is why I give 3 stars.

  • A bit of a fixer upper, but not bad

    The app works fine and does provide shows not currently aired on the network. But it’s not perfect. For one, it would be nice if the organization on each show was a little nicer, like it was chopped into seasons. Second, I would like to see CN’s back catalogue be put on here (shows like Chowder, Powerpuff Girls Classic, Fosters, Dexter, etc.) Third, I would like the ability to pay a subscription ($5.99 a month or something) since I refuse to get an expensive cable service for only a few good channels. Fourth, I would like to see a live simulcast of their cable broadcast. But other than that, the app is great and I enjoy using it. Sorry if this review was mostly critical, but I think if they add to that the app would get that fifth star. But it’s good nonetheless.

  • Never loads

    Ok so the main reason I wanted to download the app is because I wanted to catch up on some Steven Universe, which is one of my favorite shows. I opened the app, and it asked me to choose my favorite shows. I clicked Steven universe and said ok. It switched to a screen of episodes, and a loading screen. I am okay with waiting a few minutes and I wait for about five. It doesn’t load. I quit out and try again. Still on the waiting screen. I delete the app after waiting for so long that my iPhone actually shut itself off. I try again, redownloading it and it tells me to pick my shows, I choose SU and TAWOG (the amazing world of gumball) I wait 10 minutes and nothing. Honestly I am so done with this app, it is so poorly designed. What should happen was, I open the app and then it goes to a menu, saying all the new episodes of shows and a search bar at the top. This could be the menu. If you could fix this it would be great. Right now I can’t even watch my favorite shows so I am reviewing this as a 1 star. If there was a 0 star I would rate it that. I am utterly disappointed with this application.

  • Bunch of missing episodes

    Ok listen, if you’re gonna make an app, just have every episode from every show and every season. It’s annoying to see that some shows have about every episode, but Regular show has only 10 episodes from its recent season. Its also hard to navigate through the episodes as well since the numbering and the seasons on some shows make no sense when you’re scrolling down. The Amazing World of Gumball is also a good example: goes from season 4 episode 1 s4e3 s4e20 s4e22 thats the order and only has 12 episodes. That’s messed up! I mean it would be hard to fit EVERY episode of EVERY show in an app but come on! At least have a season rotation every week or something. You can’t even binge watch on this thing. Maybe they want us to watch their shows on shady websites that have ads every time you click on something. Though the app does the same thing when you start an episode... This app is for kids right?

  • One step at a time

    Look, I understand this app is meant for kids and whatnot, but even kids would get annoyed with the breakneck speed at which this app forces other shows on you. I came here for the shows I like, not a random playlist that starts playing without any input from me and that I don’t have an option to turn off. Yes, you can confirm whether or not you like what’s playing, but the fact that things start playing as soon as you open the app is the most annoying part of it. If I want to watch other shows, I will do so at my own pace. Immediately shoving other shows at the audience can have an adverse affect. Cartoon Network, I have loved you and your content since I was a child myself, so please do not give me a reason to dislike the channel now just because of this one very fixable problem.
