### 1/5 — No screen mirror

*2026-07-28, version 5.2.1*

Doesn’t allow screen mirror and makes it so we have to sign in from a different device every use

### 5/5 — GREAT APP!

*2026-07-27, version 5.2.1*

I saw all of the bad reviews, I just wanted to say I had no problems using the app

### 5/5 — Please bring back the Amateur Surgeon series🙏🙏🙏

*2026-07-27, version 5.2.1*

I was wondering if you guys can bring back the Amateur Surgeon series. I’ve been playing one of your Amateur Surgeon games since I was younger and I would love to see a comeback. Please bring the games back on the App Store and Google play store🙏🙏🙏

### 1/5 — It’s 2026 figure it tf out

*2026-07-27, version 5.2.1*

How is it, in the year 2026 of our lord, that this app still doesn’t work?? Anytime I’m trying to watch a show that’s not a marathon, I’m getting an error message that says “There seems to be a problem here”. We’ll figure it tf out. You guys are a multi million dollar corporation and you can’t seem to just make an app run correctly. Fire your software engineers fr. Rant over

### 3/5 — THERE SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM HERE

*2026-07-26, version 5.2.1*

The first time I used the app it worked great. I was able to log in to cable service and watch old episodes of Samurai Jack from the app and AirPlay it to the living room TV. After trying a different day it wasn’t working. I verified the login to cable was good, tried checking for updates, restarting phone, uninstalling and reinstalling the app and was still getting an error when trying to open specific episodes from Shows. It plays the show from Marathon but I can’t select the episodes in order the way that I could the first day. Will increase stars on review if the app starts working again.

### 3/5 — “There Seems to be a Problem”

*2026-07-25, version 5.2.1*

I get this error with Rick and Morty and a few other shows. I’m trying to reinstall the app but I doubt it’ll work. this is not the first time this has happened, both on wifi and off. Idk what to do

### 1/5 — This App is Broken

*2026-07-23, version 5.2.1*

This app is utterly broken, there are years worth of Reddit threads and comments taking about how no one can access content outside of the live stream, kind of insane that you can only watch the live stream and not access the rest of the show catalog without getting an error message.

### 1/5 — Genuinely awful

*2026-07-14, version 5.2.1*

I’m not kidding it just doesn’t work 70% of the time I don’t know what to say, loads slow, horrible interface, this is barely even an app it’s ridiculous that it’s this bad like literally what on earth.

### 1/5 — “ There seems to be a problem here “

*2026-07-12, version 5.2.1*

No explanation at all for this error. Turned off wifi, Turned on wifi, remove ad blocked, added ad blocker, deleted app, redownloaded app, clicked different shows, yet the same response every single time. Literally an unusable app.

### 1/5 — Certain content doesn’t load

*2026-07-12, version 5.2.1*

For whatever reason some shows on the app load fine and others give an error. Rick and Morty, the show almost everyone has the app to watch being one of them. It’s ridiculous enough you can watch the show as it releases in only 2 places and both of which require cable tv. To add to that the second place being this app, it never works, but if I wanna watch any other show I’ve never heard of and don’t care about it works fine.
