Useless

Worst MS product ever. I like that our Teams videos show up in this app and you can download the videos so I tried this for the plane. Turns out if you don’t have internet you cannot watch the videos you downloaded

useless

requires account doesnt let you set one up.

Hi

Hi to watch movies and tv shows in all languages on Microsoft stream video best app ever

Doesn’t work

9 times out of 10 this app won’t work on mobile. On a desktop or laptop, I can stream videos no problem. On mobile, every time I try to watch a video it immediately says “oh no! Something went wrong”

Response from developer

Dear user, we are sorry about the issues you are facing. I am a part of the Stream product team and would like to address your issue with the app on priority but would be restricted due to word limit on App Store. Could you write to streammobapp@microsoft.com for a detailed chat?

Bad update

Before this app used to be pretty good, get video to computer quickly, embed into power point. Now for the life of me I can’t even upload videos into streams. Which is the main purpose of streams..

WHY IS THERE NO MORE OFFLINE VIDEOS OPTION

As a medical student I loved this app. Any time I traveled I would download my school lectures and listen to them.

Now, the option has been removed. I am sad. Hoping this is fixed ASAP

Should be Zero Stars

This is by far the worst video streaming app. If it were not for my company powers that be I would never use this app. You can’t even effectively search for a video.

Why revamp an app and not have all of the features ready at launch. All in all this is a complete failure by Microsoft.

Response from developer

Search functionality on the revamped Stream app should help you search for videos with the name of the person, along with the ability to get back to watchlist.

crashes since last update

This app only crashes since the last update… It is useless… I cannot view any videos that I used to be able to view for work… And now it’s useless… Please fix this app as I need it for my job… Thanks, Microsoft!

Update notes not in English

Makes me wonder of the software supply chain is ok.

Cant’tupload videos

The new app does not allow you to upload videos. Feels like it defeats the purpose of the app.

New Stream 👌

New Stream is thoughtful and just makes sense. Way better than the first version. Good job Microsoft.

Where is my channels

I was not able to find my channels in the new app.

Can’t upload videos anymore

Absolutely ridiculous. Make the app completely useless. Who decided to remove a critical feature?

Time has come

It seems to me that there has been enough time to decide to replace whatever staff hold this project back, and even recreate The whole thing from scratch. It makes no business sense to me to have this be this when Microsoft of whoever could do whatever they want to solve this; I’m sorry developer, just being honest. I would’ve fired you 2 years ago from what I see and I can think of 5 ways right off the bat to not even have downtime…I’d step it up.

Can’t upload

On the older version it was easy to upload videos from your phone using the app. Now the ability to do so seems to be gone. Very disappointing.

Worse in practically every way.

This new version either made things worse, or removed features altogether. Please make the new version as Stream for SharePoint, and let us use Classic as a default or separate app. It’s bad enough we have to use the inferior SharePoint website, please don’t force it on us in the app as well.

Being unable to upload from the phones is a huge disappointment

Offline viewing was very valuable feature, new version removed it

Bring back offline viewing. New version of app is absolutely useless!

What happened to video uploaded??

The latest update disabled the ability to upload the video. I already was frustrated that learners can’t move videos to the channel I created for their training program. We have a role playing assignment for biweekly cohorts and this app is becoming less useful.

Why?

Taking away the ability to upload direct from the mobile app was a horrible idea. This app is now pretty much useless for video creators and collaborators.
