### 3/5 — It’s okay

*2026-08-20, version 21.9.0*

It’s really frustrating because some seasons and episodes don’t come out in the UK or if they do they are weeks behind the US schedule

### 2/5 — Gone down hill

*2026-08-14, version 21.9.0*

I’ve had a Discovery subscription for years & I’ve now finally cancelled it. There really isn’t anything worth watching anymore. I’ve watched all of the crime series & documentaries most of which have been on there so long I’ve watched them twice. I have no interest in reality to which it seems is wear they are focusing on now. I’ll save my money & find a new streaming service with fresh viewing!

### 3/5 — Ghost

*2026-07-21, version 21.7.0*

Need to put more paranormal and cryptozoology and cave divining mysteries and camping and outdoor mysteries  missing 411

### 3/5 — To many adds

*2026-07-18, version 21.7.0*

I don’t mind the app, and I understand that adds are there for them to make money, but they are way to often, I can be watching something and five minutes in five adds 2 mins later another five adds. It’s ridiculous most of the episodes are 25-30 mins long you don’t need 20 adds in that time frame makes me not want to use the app, and contemplating getting rid of the subscription. Yea be competitive with price but doesn’t mean you have to have 20 adds per episode that runs for 20 - 30 mins normal t.v don’t run that many

### 3/5 — Latest Seasons

*2026-06-18, version 21.5.0*

I’ve only given 3 stars as it takes too long for a new show season to be available for viewing. With online newsfeeds it spoils initial viewing thereafter.

### 4/5 — Good set up

*2026-06-11, version 21.4.0*

Good set up and app functionality, but no download function for offline viewing.

### 4/5 — Bigger writing and coming soon list

*2026-06-02, version 21.3.0*

As a frequent Discovery+ user I would like to see larger writing for the description of TV programs & episodes. I also would like to the the “coming soon like” come back as that was very useful.

### 3/5 — Disappearing app

*2026-05-21, version 21.3.0*

My app disappeared from my smart tv and there’s no help anywhere to get it back now it looks like I have two subscriptions running at the same time but still no app on the tv

### 4/5 — No ad plan please

*2026-05-14, version 21.2.0*

No ad plan please

### 2/5 — British Sports Commentators meh

*2026-04-21, version 21.0.0*

App is just okay. It's a bit expensive to subscribe to although there's lots to watch. If you like spending a lot of time watching TV!

Unfortunately EVERY BRITISH MOTORSPORT commentator are absolute annoyances. Expressing biased opinions and commentary on various riders. Especially this Motocross GP commentator, Some guy who seems to be named Calvin/Kelvin.. not sure as he doesn't even announce his name. At this racing season of 2026. He's like the Murray Walker of motorcycle commentators, with all the mistakes he makes on riders and situations. Probably because he wants to mention where each rider comes from. We just need to know the names of the riders, his position during the race. Not his country of birth or place of birth and nationality. Which can be considered racial discrimination even!
 
It's a pity to have to mention and criticise commentators for the sake of being able to give an honest opinion on experiences using an app and it's service, for MXGP. 

Although only'Lisa Layland' is on the ball and pleasant speaking to riders and team management however.

### 5/5 — Ich bin Fan

*2026-04-17*

Ich liebe Trash und somit auch diesen Dienst,obwohl er natürlich noch viel mehr zu bieten hat und das zu einem kleinen Preis

### 5/5 — TNT sports

*2026-04-14, version 20.17.1*

Who’s had not changed channel and left on TNT

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Ads in paid subscription

*2026-08-20, version 21.9.0*

If you think I'm paying to watch adverts.  Naaah.     You guys wonder why people revert to piracy.   It's garbage services like this.

### 1/5 — Cancelling after subscribing for years

*2026-08-19, version 21.9.0*

I can no longer tolerate the ads. 6 ads every 10 minutes is too much. I’ll get my trash tv elsewhere until you treat us here in the UK 🇬🇧 like the USA and give us an ad free subscription.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-07-14, version 21.5.0*

I’m watching 20+ ads per episode. Most series don’t have all the seasons. Not sure what the point in a “premium” subscription is, free telly has less ads and costs less. Just not worth it

### 1/5 — Great app but

*2026-06-16, version 21.4.0*

The app is great and the show are amazing but they are so desperate to get you to subscribe to the bigger one that they now get seven adverts in one add break in a show if u consider the are more than one add break the solution is to get paid tv subscription that comes with a recorder like sky and just record the shows and skip the adds in addition I don’t buy anything in the adds because I am tried of seeing their names

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2026-06-07, version 21.4.0*

I am on Apple Says there is a new app won’t update after reinstalling 🤔

### 1/5 — The forced ads finished it for me

*2026-05-30, version 21.3.0*

I had Discovery + from the very start and would spend hours watching which was a great value service and ad free.
They got greedy and insist in showing ads (apparently to keep it affordable) as soon as they done that I cancelled my subscription.

Just a very low rated app now with absolutely no option in the UK to go ad free.

Almost criminal on their part

### 1/5 — Was a good app but…..

*2026-05-22, version 21.3.0*

I did enjoy discovery documentaries but the constant deleting the app and trying to reinstate it was driving me to the point of insanity. It always had an error and although it worked on my iPad it did not work on my LG tv. So I cancelled my subscription.

### 1/5 — Good shows LOATHE the ads

*2026-05-14, version 21.2.0*

There used to be an 8.99 option to not see ads. They took that now it’s 3.50 a month and you just have to live with ads the same ones every 15 minutes. I despise adverts. Pay YouTube 16.99 a month not to see them Sky has a 6 quid boost option. Only way to not see ads on discovery now is to buy the 30 quid sport package. I don’t watch sport I don’t want to watch sport and I’m not paying 30 quid a month to not be infuriated. So I guess this isn’t an option for me anymore

### 1/5 — Needs reform

*2026-04-11, version 20.17.1*

Worst streaming app by far - picture quality is rubbish. The amount of adverts is shocking and makes it using the app painful. Avoid this app if you don’t like watching adverts. It is insufferable.

### 1/5 — Wont allow me to delete my account

*2026-04-06, version 20.17.1*

Despite emailing and following the instructions on the website.
