### 3/5 — Won’t work

*2024-06-28*

I love the app but when I try to go in to watch a show, all I get is try again. If you don’t want people to watch it then don’t have it as an app. You would have gotten 5stars if the app would work

**Developer response:** Hi there, this is not the experience we want you to have! First, please try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. If the app is still not working correctly, please reach out via the link below and select ‘Contact Us’ so that we can troubleshoot! https://gohelp.discovery.com/hc/en-us

### 4/5 — Issues with casting

*2022-04-20, version 8.0.4*

Having problems with chromecast. If not I give it 5 stars.

### 3/5 — Used to watch..

*2021-01-08, version 7.7.1*

I wish they would have new shows instead of reruns.

### 4/5 — Mrcatdino sr.

*2020-01-21, version 7.6.2*

Fantastic I hope they fix the problem when they have the chance because we will not get angry.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for sharing this positive feedback with us. If there's anything we can do to assist you with the app, please don't hesitate to send us an email via the link below.

### 4/5 — Railroad Alaska

*2019-11-14, version 7.5.6*

Not sure why Railroad Alaska was canceled but I had a group of friends that met each week to watch! We love most shows regarding Alaska but this was our favorite! Why was it canceled?  Is there any chance that you’ll reconsider and bring Railroad Alaska back on Destination America or Discovery? PLEASE 🙏🙏🙏

### 4/5 — Dest. America

*2019-07-03, version 2.18.0*

This is not running smooth even though I’ve unlocked. Only got to see 1 uk Katrina & Nick. Then tried after the lockdown and None ran. Been looking for Nick & Katrina since last season. So frustrated don’t know if ill remember to check back to see if you’ve fixed problems.  Also not many shows in total on Dest. America

**Developer response:** Hey there, sorry to hear the app isn't working as it should. We’ll need some more information from you in order to investigate. Can you please email us at the link below?

### 4/5 — Limit the commercials!!

*2019-06-18, version 2.17.0*

Nice app with many shows not currently on TV. So it’s nice. Only complaint is the high number of commercials. Be nice to limit the commercials to only 0-4 instead of 8 in a row at times. Jeez I put my phone down and walk off. If it wasn’t for the shows I wouldn’t watch it at all.

**Developer response:** Hi Shawn, thanks for the feedback regarding ads! They're important to creating a free app with great content. We're always working to improve the app, so your comments are helpful!

### 2/5 — No new content

*2019-05-04, version 2.17.0*

Same episodes have available for long time. How about some new ones.

### 2/5 — Annoying

*2019-04-28, version 2.17.0*

I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or what, but the need to activate my device(s) 2 to 3 times a day just to watch a show is a bit annoying. This and this alone makes me give 2 stars. 
Is there a way to keep my device(s) activated?

### 4/5 — Okay app but nice.

*2019-01-21, version 2.15.1*

This app is not a 5/5. But what I think 🤔 it is a 4/5. I love 😍 ”Destination America”. Exspetiuly the show ”Haunted Collector”, and ”Mountain Monsters”. The bad thing is, is that ”Haunted Collector” is not a Tv show anymore 😔. One thing about this app is that you have to sign up of your account for your TV. The thing why I don't like the is because it could be a spam. I'm not hating or anything but still. That's not necessary. So that's my review of this app. I know it's short but I don't really have a lot to say for this app. But if you are reading this, beware around children because there is cussing in some of the videos. But yeah, there's not a lot to say. So if I was reading this review I would take all of the information and use it wisely. But I would definitely download this app. If you download it hope you like it🙏😉😁.

### 3/5 — Too many ads

*2018-11-28, version 2.14.0*

Great show like mountain monster But way too many commercials

### 3/5 — Dont bother if you don’t have cable

*2018-07-19, version 2.13.0*

I got this App expecting to have to pay some kind of subscription fee, since I knew it was too good to be true that a free app would give me unlimited access to some of my favorite shows.

But I’m not about to sign up for cable in order to use the app. Talk about a let down.

I gave it three stars because the app itself isn’t to bad from what I was able to do on it. No buffering. 

But the commercials were a bit much, given you HAVE to already be paying for cable to gain full access. Again, even with a subscription fee, I wouldn’t have cared about the commercials.

### 1/5 — Can’t get it

*2019-10-06, version 7.5.5*

I pay sling to watch your channels and yet you don’t give us the ability to watch all the episodes? I love the channel just hate how I can’t get a person to talk to either. You really should appreciate all of your customers and give them the same abilities to enjoy your  diverse programming.

**Developer response:** Hi, there are SO many cable providers out there, and we have a dedicated team who is in constant communications with these different companies, working hard to ensure you get access to as much content as possible. It would help tremendously if you could send us an email with the name of your TV provider. We can add you to the list and email you when we have them added in our lineup. In the meantime, check out the unlocked episodes under stream for free.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2019-03-14, version 2.16.0*

I love destination America but this app does not work all my other apps and the other tv channel apps like TLC go or Travlechannle go  work wonderfully, I have a very reliable new I pad and this App will not load I have to delete it and re download every time I want to watch something and if I click out of it accidentally I’m can’t get back in, I don’t have any clue why this is happening but I wish it was fixed already.

### 1/5 — Can’t ever get signed in. Useless app.

*2019-02-05, version 2.15.1*

I have tried reloading this app over five times and STILL can’t get it to sign in so I can use it with my cable account. Little wheel just keeps spinning no matter what you do. Useless

### 1/5 — Get with the now!

*2019-01-20, version 2.15.1*

They haven’t caught on that they can charge a small fee every month so people can have access to all their programs. CABLE is DEAD.

### 1/5 — Too Many Darn Commercials

*2018-12-30, version 2.15.1*

Seriously? It’s very annoying having to watch commercials every 2 to 3 minutes. Commercials have more airtime than the actual show. I mean, come on! We just want to watch without interruption.

### 1/5 — Lame

*2018-12-06, version 2.14.0*

I love paranormal lockdown but does this app want to work right? No and to top that off two brand new episodes were on last night but you guys can’t simply update your app so therefore I can’t watch it, no wonder ghost adventures has stuck around with the travel channel it’s because destination America is sooo lame!

### 1/5 — YIKES

*2018-09-07, version 2.13.0*

This worked ONCE on my iPad while connected to my home network, which gets its IP service from Charter/Spectrum. 
Next attempt, nothing would play even though logged in, ALL things were showing red which was explained away as not being available on my network. Funny thing that...the show is ON MY TV at the moment, but not on my IPAD and yet as soon as I try on my mobile phone..it works?  Inconsistent. I’m not throttled, and there’s plenty of data. Not coming back to this for a while.

### 1/5 — Ridiculous Commercials

*2018-09-02, version 2.13.0*

We are trying to watch shows through an app NOT on live television, why the hell do they have to put 2.5-3.5 minute long commercial breaks in their shows? Are you kidding me, this is becoming intolerable and making it difficult to watch any of the shows. I end up falling asleep waiting for the commercials to end. I’m going to stick to Netflix and my other on-the-go apps which don’t have ridiculously long unnecessary and frequent commercial breaks in their shows.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2018-07-09, version 2.12.0*

I have signed in at least a dozen times and each instance it keeps displaying that I am not signed in. The DiscoveryGO app works fine, I don’t see why it’s so difficult for the sister app to work similarity without all the sign in issues. It’s just as well since there’s only one season of BBQ Pitmasters available, zero episodes of Smoked, and about nine million dumb ghost shows I have absolutely no interest in.

### 1/5 — Puppy456

*2018-07-05, version 2.12.0*

Thy said it was free and I wanted to catch up but they were locked up and I don’t want to pay for them cause it’s crap don’t buy this if you see this

*2022-05-06, version 8.1.0*

Do you watch anything is there an app

### 5/5 — Commercials cause freezing up

*2021-10-23, version 7.9.1*

Love the shows that are on app BUT so many commercials cause the app to freeze or completely to close. So aggravating.

### 5/5 — Everything I wanted

*2019-11-20, version 7.5.6*

I only got this app for mountain monsters and I was not disappointed and this is my second review because the first one I said it only needed one more episode and it got that episode so now this app is everything I wanted

**Developer response:** Hi, our app has thousands of hours of content at any given time, and we usually leave the videos loaded into the app for as long as we can. It doesn’t look like that particular episode is available right now, but check back frequently, since we’re always adding what we can.

### 5/5 — The best

*2019-10-29, version 7.5.6*

I love history and science so I have been watching Mysteries at the Museum since it started..fascinating things to see and learn.. I also like the castle segment...need more of that one..

### 5/5 — Destination America

*2019-10-14, version 7.5.6*

I love destination America,  I do wish they would play more of mountain monsters on this channel with Trapper on the show it’s always good. Don’t like the new version it’s about them not monsters...... the best episode is the Grassman’s “Revenge.

### 5/5 — Thanks

*2019-09-14, version 7.5.4*

I’m able to see all my favorite shows. The graphics are awesome on my IPad.  Love that you have added the Alaska shows and even the Buying ..... thanks
