Unreliable

When it works, it works fine, but you can never count on being able to log in successfully. Quite often it won’t connect and then I can’t play anything. Many times it will try to login and then get hung up and do nothing. I’ve learned that if I shutdown the app and then restart it, a lot of times it will be logged into my account when it relaunches and then it will cooperate. But then again, many times it will just give some error page and say that it is unable to login or something. Very buggy and frustrating. When it does manage to connect it plays fine and I’m able to watch ABC shows that I’m looking for. I keep hoping that each update will provide a fix or better service. But every version that I’ve used after many updates over past few years had had similar poor reliability. I don’t get it.

Murder in the Building

Enjoying the show very much. It has a good storyline but really why all the swearing? You don’t need it. I find it ludicrous that you allow taking the Lord’s name in vain but you block out the f-word which is just a stupid word, which by the way you don’t need either. You’ve got your priorities all wrong. You’ve got the potential for a great show and you ruin it by taking the Lord’s name in vain. You’re going to lose a lot of viewers because of it. I know swearing is so commonplace in our society and a complaint about it may seem silly to you, but I feel it will truly benefit your new show to take it out. So many people are looking for good, wholesome shows to watch on TV. This could be one of them. Thanks for your consideration.

Old man Disney lover.

I tell you I love the app I had a hard time getting it to play with my tv provider when I wanted to watch a college football game but now that I figured out how to set up location the right way it’s working real good. I have always been a big fan of the Disney family broadcasting and it was one of my favorites. And let me tell you one thing the app works great on my iPhone 14 and I have no problems accessing my favorite shows and sports channels and air play is awesome when I do it to my Roku tv. I can tell you that the 13 app on my iPhone gives me more content than the Roku app does. I can watch the whole country music awards show on my iPhone app and can’t watch nothing but the clips of the show on my 13 app on my Roku. Keep it up and thanks for the awesome app that is great on my iPhone.

Love the ABC app

My iPad Air is 10 years old and I am happy I can still watch a lot of great ABC shows on this app. The other major network apps no longer work with my iPad Air; seems they expect me to buy a newer device which can be updated to a newer version of iOS to use their apps, so I no longer watch their shows. This tablet fulfills the basics of being able to use the internet and email, and I refuse to get into the cycle of buying the newest thing that comes out when this device works fine for my needs. Why pollute the environment with more e-waste when it isn’t necessary? ABC, I hope you continue to have your app work well with older devices and I applaud you for not shutting out the audience who own older devices, like other networks.

Worst app experience

I have been trying to watch football today and the app will not allow you to keep the player running when you leave the app, which is annoying but manageable. However, the app asks me to sign-in to my cable provider at least every 15 minutes and will quit streaming until I do so. It additionally does not recognize my Samsung TV for chromecasting and makes me use Airplay, which would be fine if it didn’t shut down and make me sign in to my TV provider every 15 minutes!!!! I additionally cannot leave the app on my phone if I’m streaming to the TV, which is beyond weird and it STILL makes me sign in every 15 minutes. Hands down the most infuriating experience I have had with any app and definitely one as established as this.
