Commercials/freeze freeze freeze
I decided to watch a episode of love and hip hop holiday and boy was it a painful experience, it was so painful deleted the app, right before I was painfully waiting for the end. First and foremost, the last 10 mins of the episode had so many commercial breaks, the episode would get interrupted, every 1-2 mins after a argument or highlight for a 2-4 min commercial break...it’s like I was at the end of the episode and I couldn’t even reach the end the last 10 mins had more than SIX: 3-5 mins commercial breaks my blood pressure began to boil and boil and not only that at the end of multiple commercials segments the commercial would just freeze and you would have to press play multiple times for it to restart, hoping that it wouldn’t freeze again...it was so painful, my chest started hurting it took me so long to get to the end of the episode, I literally closed the device and deleted the app immediately !!! It’s 2018, a app shouldn’t be this bad from a television companyShow lessEmpress101

This is the worst app I’ve ever used on the Apple TV. It keeps asking me to sign into my cable provider every couple weeks, which is super annoying. On top of that, the ads are ridiculously long. When I watch Drag Race, I have to sit through 5 ads, then I get a 30-second recap of last week, and then 5 more ads. If you rewind even a little bit past a commercial, you have to rewatch all 5 ads all over again. Lastly, I’ve had to quit the app to resolve technical difficulties (like a 10-minute ad break), but when I reopen the app, it doesn’t save my place and makes me rewatch all the ads again.Show lessarko90
???????
It would be great if I could pick the episode that I want to watch before you show me 6 million advertisements. It’s annoying that I have to watch all 6 million ads before I can even pick the episode of the show that I want to watch. The app itself also is kind of weird. It’s like annoying I don’t know who made it but fire them they didn’t know what they were doing OMG all I wanna do is watch a specific episode not the first episode I was recently uploaded no I would like to go back later into a season but I can never do that because the freaking stupid app wants to show me all of these commercials without letting me choose the Episode first I hate you.Show lessSwagOnGayLevel
Why doesn’t it work😫😩😑!!!!
I send you guy’s an email from my device “which you have ask me too”. I guess my question is, does Verizon Fios work on this app? And if so is it under a different name? Still can’t watch VH1 on my iPhone, never had a problem before the upgrade. VH1 have updated the app, I don’t see my provider anymore “which is Verizon fios”. This is very frustrating, please, please fix it!!Show lessR-Victoria
Confused
I actually appreciate that there is finally a VH1 app as I watch much of the content. However I stay very very confused at the lack of quality in the app. Even the basics, like video playback. Most interruptions will result in the video starting over. It can be laggy and buffer. Most recently I’ve come across two problems:
1) when I sign in with one service provider, I’m stuck and can not sign into another (I switched cable providers and no am no longer able to access locked videos)
2) for certain shows, when I click the “full episodes” button, it doesn’t work at all and stays on the home screen
Sometimes I can get around these things by deleting and reinstalling the app but is shouldn’t have to come to thatShow lessamo627

I would first off like to say I love VH1 and their programs, but I can’t watch anything live half the time. I login with my direct tv subscription and can watch every episode of any show, but when I go to watch live, it will load for a second and then say I don’t have access. I just tried it right now and it worked fine, but when I need it to work it doesn’t. The other day I was on a bus and wanted to watch drag race as it aired and it wouldn’t work until halfway through the episode. I want to be able to trust that I I’m not at home I have the option of watching my programs live, or why even have it at all? Very frustratingShow lessLeedle leedle leedle 3$0731
Needs lots of work!
I have had this app for a while and thought by now they would have improved it. Watching my reality shows on here is painful sometimes. I have actually rewatched shows on my tv after I had already watched here and realized somehow I missed a whole section of the show. There have been times that I will be watching and for no reason the episode will just start over. Plus most of the time (not all but most) if you leave the app then go back in, it jumps back to the beginning of your episode and you have to scroll through to figure out where you left off. The episodes start from new to old but if you are watching episode 3 it automatically goes to episode 2 when you finish instead of going to 4 which makes no sense at all. The commercials are terrible and repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat. I understand we have to watch them in order to get the free app but they could at least be normal commercials that you see on TV. Some of these look like my children produced them. I had to sit through 20 seconds of a child swimming and doing flips in a pool with no words, no promoting, nothing. Umm ok. Then they promote stores and events all in FL lol. I’m in NJ and can’t figure out how to change the settings. We get it, Ace Hardware pays a lot to promote with VH1! I can’t remove closed caption to save my life which drives me crazy. But you get what you pay for I guess lol thank god for on demand with cable!Show lessGdugqfydf

Too many ads. it's not even worth watching the shows. if you leave the app for even a second to reply to a message, emails anything it starts you all over with a new set of ads. it's not even like there are 2-3 ads every here and there. EVERY 2-3 minutes of your show there are ads, and each commercial break comes with 5 ads. it's ridiculous. Yes the app it's self is free but you have to login in to your cable provider that you pay for so all the commercials/ads aren't worth it. don't bother with the app you'll get tired of dealing with all the ads after the first 10 minutes.Show lessMinnie9362
love the shows, hate the app
first off, i love a lot of vh1’s programming. i have no issues with the actual content; my qualms are with this trashy app. if you close the app for a half second or even pull down notification center (without closing the app) it starts your show over and makes you watch thousands of garbage ads before maybe giving you the chance to fast forward to where you left off. incredibly inconvenient for people with lives that have to check emails, watch the time, etc. even when we’re watching tv. we get it. you want the ad revenue. (and no, the fact that the app is free is not an adequate justification for any of this. your users are paying a lot of money to still subscribe to cable in the age of netflix/hulu. and even if your absurd capitalist explanations “justify” the obscene amount of ads, there’s absolutely no excuse for having such a useless, nonfunctional app when clearly your users are crying out for changes to be made and, again, WE ARE PAYING MONEY TO ACCESS THE CONTENT ON THE APP.) now please give us a functioning app or drop the false pretenses and admit you don’t care about anything but profitShow lessnihilism101

I really like the shows on VH1 but let me tell you, there are too many commercials! I was watching an episode for literally 2 MINUTES when commercials came on. I’m like okay, probably won’t happen again, but when the show came on again, I kid you not, commercials came back on no more than 2 MINUTES later again! Not only that, they play the same three commercials over and over again which is SUPER FRUSTRATING. If there were less commercials I would be at a 5 star rating, but seriously, the amount of commercials is what killed the chances.Show lessMarina Moneyz
