Very glitchy. Does not like to be stopped and started. Constant ads. Freezes up constantly causing you to have to watch the ads over and over again, do not recommend.

WORST APP EVER! Hey sponsors, where are you at? Little help?

Hands-down the worst app I’ve ever used! I am about ready to ditch my subscription altogether. I’ve emailed them and commented on the app many times and not only does nothing change or get fixed (they haven’t even updated the app since 2020!), I don’t even get a reply from the company acknowledging my comment or email (not even an auto-generated reply!) I mean, are they trying to chase away their customers and viewer base??? Are they trying to go out of business?? The app has no logical navigation at all, automatically starts on who knows what show/episode whenever you start the app. On the AppleTV, you can’t back out of the navigation menu without closing the app. The only you is to wait for it to timeout and go back to your show…which is hit or miss, or navigate back to the episode you’re watching and re-select it. And then, when navigating the show menu to pick the show you actually want to watch, you have to keep moving through the episodes or it will time out and go back to whatever was playing (it only works right when you’re trying to pick another show…). For $50 a year, this app is the WORST. I expect much more that. I don’t want to abandon it because I do enjoy the content (when its not completely overrun by in-show ads) but at this rate, I WILL NOT be renewing. If they don’t care enough to offer a good product, well, I won’t patronize them or their sponsors. Just a thought PowerNationTV, maybe you should see what MotorTrend is doing and learn from them before you lose all their customers…and sponsors…

App is trash

Absolute trash, glitchy. Gets stuck on lame rock auto commercial, and plays with no sound. Trash app.

Update this app already!

This app needs more work then Bidens ability to read a teleprompter. We have a better chance of Palosi showing up sober then this app working correctly. Hillary if you are reading this, your emails are available in this app.

Fix the app

Works half the time doesn’t work half the time, shows quit playing after a commercial please fix

Great app. Watch on data, not WiFi

I used to watch Extreme 4x4 with Jesse and Ian religiously, plus the other shows that used to be on power block tv Saturday mornings on spike. That was my childhood. Anyways the app works well on my phone using data. Not so well on Fire TV using home wifi. Could be my wifi or the bandwith of the shows. You can sort episodes by builds and even look at parts lists in app. That’s pretty cool. Not sure why there’s so many negative reviews. Boomers with technology I guess. I haven’t had many issues, keep it up!

Paying for commercials

There are more commercials than shows now what is going on? Im done paying to watch commercials over and over!

Shameful

This is easily the worst app I’ve ever seen for AppleTV. Menus are unnavigable because they are only on the screen for a few seconds. Being forced to watch the same commercial 6-8 times every 10 minutes. Yes, that’s right the same EBC commercial 30-40 times every episode. PN has great content, but this app makes it unwatchable.

App doesn’t work

I love the PN shows and got the app. The shows won’t play on it. It’s just a big play button when you open it up. I did watch one show and you can’t rewind or fast forward much. It just starts over if you try. It’s a junk app.

Keep doing what your doing
(It works for me )
Great job guys /gals always fun to watch

Ads

Why are there so many ads on this app, if I wanted to watch the show with ads on it. I’ll would just watch it on tv. The ads are over 5mins long. Very disappointed with this app

Worthless

Cancelled my plan and deleted the app. The app will not do anything but endlessly loop the first series of commercials on my iphone, Roku and Firestick. Closing out and logging back in does nothing to remedy this.

Apple TV app doesn’t work properly

The last few versions of the Apple TV version has serious issues.
1. The app when launched, automatically starts playing some random episode that I didn’t choose.
2. You have about 5-7 seconds to choose an episode to watch before it clears the menu and returns you to the episode that you didn’t choose and started playing in the first issue mentioned above.
3. If you accidentally touch the remote and bring up the show menu at the top of the screen, there is no way to get rid of it unless you exit out of the episode completely and restart it again.

We pay you a lot of money for a subscription to watch these shows. Please let us have control of the app instead of you deciding or assuming that you know what we want to watch.

App and site

Both the app and website refuse to play a video without freezing. Terrible app.

Still gate ads after signing ip

I loved the RTM shows when on Spike TV and whatever Spike sold out too. I purchased the app when it was on special several months ago to avoid all the BS GOOGLE ads on the top and bottom of the screen. Well I still get the ads on both the top and bottom of the screen after logging in. Then when you close an ad, GOOGLE sends a notice “ why this ad” seriously GOOGLE “ go away and leave us alone” RTM should have better sense and I will NOT renew this app!!
Its great when it works but the 2 minute tech blocks do not come stacked in order snd you have to search through numerous vids to find what looking for. I’d take a refund if I could get one. Again GOOGLE GO AWAY!!!

Crazy with commercials

I can’t believe how many times I watch the same commercial over and over and over at one time. Just watched an anti trump commercial 9 times in a row this is ridiculous. Love watching this show but I get anxiety watching the same commercials 9 times in a row.

Why, why, why!!!

I really love the shows they produce, but what is the point of me paying for this each month when I still have to watch advertisements! I pay for my apps like Disney, HBO, HULU, and so many more, just so I don’t have to watch advertisements! If you try to watch there shows on TV there is a 50/50 mix so for a 30min show you watch 15mins of the show and 15mins of Ads! So with all those ads on the TV and me paying for the App so I can watch the shows without Ads! Why the heck am I having to watch Ads that is time I will never get back in my life! I would happily pay more each month to not have to watch anymore dang Ads! So if you love paying to watch Ads then this is the app for you, if you don’t like paying to watch Ads then I won’t pay for this it isn’t worth it!

Thank you for making me pay for Ads! NOT!
A very unhappy Fan!

Worst streaming service

You’d think when it says “add free streaming” that it would be add free. Well, that’s DEFINITELY not the case with this app. Apparently, RTM productions doesn’t understand what “add free” is. I’m currently watching an episode of truck tech and saw ads from everyone and anyone. Kind of annoying. The ONLY reason I still haven’t canceled my subscription, is because I don’t watch real tv and haven’t seen 90% of the episodes. RTM productions are a J.O.K.E.

App needs work

On Roku the app keeps reverting to the show main screen if you pause while looking through episodes. It is very frustrating to have to scroll through episodes without stopping to read the discriptions.
