A smoother way to watch. We’ve made performance improvements and fixed issues to make the app faster, more stable, and easier to use. Browsing and playback should feel more reliable, so you can stay focused on the stories and shows you love.

Utter laziness and stupidity combined with bare minimum effort created this garbage.

Limited

I signed up excited to think I would be able to watch old TV shows like Lovejoy. It’s mostly movies and if there are 20 that’s saying a lot….
Very, very limited selection… what’s there is good but it’s not necessarily British TV

BBC credibility is on the line

It’s extremely hard to find a streaming service with such low reviews on apple IOS platform, until you actually start using it. So here I am with one more one start after only a day. I mean, everything about the app and how it has been developed and supervised seems pretty bad. I would rather searching on YouTube for unknown publishers than browsing through the contents on a BBC production streaming platform.

I am a 76 year old woman who has never seen anything so offensive in my life!

As a Christian woman of god I have never seen any such a thing like I’ve seen on app! Scams, Sex, Drugs, Nudity, Frauds! How dare you to criticize Donald Trump! Unbelievable! I am immediately deleting this app! Unbelievable! Just unbelievable!
