Hate this app

Love the channel but for a channel with such high caliber shows the app is worthless.

App won’t load

Absolutely garbage app. It won’t load on my smart tv, so I tried to screen mirror from my phone onto my tv and it got flagged as me trying to record the show. This was after I had to delete other apps to make room (large app, almost 9mb). Terrible product, stay away

New to A&E

Love discovering I have access to your quality programming with limited commercials and it’s FREE!! Thank you for putting it out there 🥰

Love the content, not the ads

I love the shows A&E produces, especially Squatters and Hoarders. It is nice to see people being helped.

Some of us cannot afford cable services so it is unfortunate that episodes are locked and ads are so frequent though.

Love A&E Content: Hate The TOO Frequent Ads

As a person who has worked in the broadcast, cable and digital media world for over 2.5 decades, this one is rough for even me. The ad frequency feels like every :120 seconds & it frankly becomes frustrating. There are 2 different ad types that pop up & make the viewing experience less than enjoyable. The user decides which ad to view by clicking one of two choices. The first ad choice is a :30 interactive ad which I must physically click to “return to content” after the ad content plays. The 2nd ad choice is either a :120 or a :150 second ad (can’t recall off the top of my head) that the user must simply sit thorough. I’m not sure if I’ll continue to use the app simply because there are ads happening SO frequently. I wish there were another option to enjoy this network. It truly is one of my favorites. If commercials and required interaction don’t bother you, I’m sure you’ll love it! Side note…your ad sales team/traffic team or DSP needs to step up their game because I watched the same B of A ad in every single break 😂
