App has too many bugs

Every time I go to watch something from my phone it won’t play…… stupid

App is atrocious

Binge has some good content. If you’re here solely for that, sign up. It’s competitive with its rivals and has decent shows, some not found elsewhere.

The app is where it falls down. On the iPhone, on Apple TV and especially ESPECIALLY Android/Google TV. On my Google TV (and I understand I’m leaving a comment on the App Store, but it’s 2026 and we use multiple devices for the same content now) I can barely get through two episodes in a row without it crashing. On occasion it takes minutes (plural) to load, then when I finally navigate to what I want to watch, I get an error.

Weirdly, some seasons of tv shows run in the reverse order. I was watching two seasons of law and order, one ran episode 1 to 24, then the next season automatically played 24 to 1.

It’s objectively terrible.

Still awful, I want my money back

Update:
Hey Binge!
Instead of asking reviewers to send screenshots and videos of your app not working, just using it yourself. You’ll see pretty quick how awful it is. I’ve cancelled my subscription, bye-eeeeeee!
Came back to Binge to watch one particular show because it’s not available anywhere else. I was never a fan of the Apple TV Binge App, and it’s still not good, but just for different reasons. Very laggy, clumsy sideways scrolling that doesn’t happen on any other app, so it’s not my internet speed that’s the issue. I also can’t resume or restart a movie I was watching for some reason; the screen just partially refreshes and nothing happens.
Won’t be resubscribing, I think.
As a side note: you’re now CHARGING customers to watch ads, something free-to-air TV provides for free. Are you planning to put any of that double-dipping revenue into hiring some decent app developers?

The app is terrible needs a lot of work

The app has big issues connecting with Chromecast and even when it does if watching a series has troubles connecting for the next episode it keeps taking us back to the beginning then when trying to reset it tells us there is an issue and to sign out and when we do still doesn’t fix it. The app used to be fine but now is terrible.

Limited to one program

This has got to be the worst app for casting to a tv with ChromeCast. It never lets me watch more than one thing before giving me errors. Totally rubbish

Expensive.

Fine, it’s a streaming service that charges like wounded bull and makes very difficult to cancel.

Most Unfunctional App Ever

The binge app is the worst app. It is not user friendly at all.

Useless

They fix one issue but create seven more, can believe I’m stuck with a 12 month subscription to something that isn’t usable

Binge Scam

Once you have subscribed, you will not be able to unsubscribe.

Terrible experience and buggy as all hell

The Binge app used to be ok. OK enough that I didn’t feel compelled to leave a review. But then they changed it, maybe 6 months ago, and it has gone BAD. Doesn’t sync well with Apple TV anymore. Opens streaming in a small YouTube-like screen and you have to make it bigger yourself. Sometimes it just plays an additional version the soundtrack of what I’m watching but with a 2 second delay. I can’t find anything, easily, new episodes don’t show up, the continue watching sections keeps things in there I’ve already watched. It’s just a pile of poo. Do better, I pay money for your software so you have no excuse.

Binge for iPad

Unbelievably stupid that I can’t watch binge on my iPad in landscape for some reason, no matter the setting that I put it in I am unable to watch a movie in full screen landscape. A bug that clearly needs to be fixed.

Keeps crashing

I struggle to open this app on iPhone it keeps not wanting to open! Same thing occurs with hbo. Good shows tho! And live tv option!

Can’t cast!!!!!

So stupid this app! Can’t cant anymore

The second worst!

Binge is the second worst major streaming service (apple tv 1st)

Even since Hubbl and HBO Max became a thing, binge has lost so much great content. The platform on all devices (LG smart tv, playsation, web browsers, windows app and iphone app) is clunky and not the easiest to navigate.

Make the changes people in these reviews are suggesting instead of pocketing our money for you poor service!

Could be awesome

We need an option to PLAY ALL. We have a Binge List. Let subscribers play all our chosen movies or TV.
YouTube lets me play my own watch list. It's free

Not great, but not surprised

The worst

Always a problem, glitchy

What am I paying for?

App freezes, closes and is generally very clunky. Does not stay cast to my TV. Impossible to get through a series.

New Update

New update has totally wrecked this streaming platform. Everyday I need to delete continue watching shows I know I have totally watched all the way through. Months and months and still not fixed.

Just mid

Binge has some good shows but the main franchises seem to have left the platform. There are also issues with its search engine…not the most intuitive. Furthermore, the app itself often plays the sound of other episodes while the show you are watching is loading, then you end up with the background noise of another episode during your current episode. The only fix to that is to switch the phone off and on again which can become tedious if you are trying to actually binge watch.
