Ads and ads

You would have a great app. But your ads are getting to be too much. Your app might be the only one who’s ads take longer load than the actual content. It’s frustrating to watch so many ads and the same one over and over. Just so people who create the ad content, I hate your product even more when I see an ad for it. So you are wasting your time.

Great app!

I’m enjoying watching the newest season of Alone plus rewatching the older seasons. I don’t mind the commercials on the app as I can choose the 30 second version. I’m watching the older seasons on History Vault w no commercials. Great content and quality.

5 stars!

My favorite show on TV is Alone. Due to work schedule I can never catch it live and the flexibility of using the app allows me to watch the next day and stay on top of the adventure.
