### 2/5 — Fix this app please

*2024-07-11*

Live TV is loading very slow and I can’t seem to watch my shows on here. Please fix this app and make it all better.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2023-03-13, version 54*

Won’t let me watch anything.   Get rid of it if you aren’t going to fix.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2023-03-10*

App does not play videos. Constant errors when trying to open a video. Fix it or remove it!

### 1/5 — Can’t even watch it

*2023-02-16*

Like so many people have said. You can’t even use this app with out an error. I hope the developers try to fix it. Bc right now it is a useless app.

### 1/5 — Login loop

*2023-02-05*

No longer able to log in on the app on my Fire stick. It just keeps looping back to the password entry field on the login screen. Junk!

### 1/5 — Errorz Now

*2023-01-16*

I emailed support and told him it's nearly impossible to watch even a 1 hour show, so approximately 42-46 minutes of actual video, due to the too many device error. [On a side note, error says REACHED, NOT exceeded, maximum devices which clearly should not terminate active programming.] Tonight, 1st one popped up 12 SECONDS AFTER starting the show. Restarted show & received same error 3 additional times in less than 15 minutes. The support person at Reelz I communicated with via email said the too many debice error is on the TV provider side of things as the provider gives/establishes an "entitlement" with each sign in & I do not remember the rest. However, I sincerely doubt AT&T DirecTV customers are the ONLY people encountering this error. I could EASILY be wrong & have no problem admitting. That said, I surmise a lot of us would appreciate seeing the data on tv provider used + people receiving too many devices error. Error analysis data does not require customer names.

### 1/5 — You Can’t Watch Episodes

*2023-01-13*

I appreciate the shows being generally free to watch, but what’s the point of an app that keeps giving an error every time you tap on a show to watch?

### 1/5 — Kinks

*2023-01-02, version 54*

Not playing what is supposed to be on

### 2/5 — Love the shows BUT

*2023-01-01*

The app is always shutting down and saying to many devices when my device is the only one playing at the time. Wish they would fix this. Also the playing now will freeze and nit update for hours.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2022-12-28*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2022-12-13*

It was quick and easy to get set up. But no matter what you try to watch 
“Looks like something went wrong!”
Every time no matter what show, or connection type.

### 1/5 — Reelz app written by amateurs.

*2022-11-26, version 54*

Need I say more…

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2022-11-15, version 54*

Without a doubt the worst app I’ve ever used, nothing loads ever.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2022-10-07, version 54*

Does not load fully. No way to sign in. This is not really a serious attempt at delivering a functional app.

### 1/5 — Can’t access content

*2025-03-29*

I use and pay for peacock and they won’t allow me to use that service provider for log in credentials.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2025-03-10, version 54*

Crashes on my phone every time I open it. (iphone 12 IOS 18.3)

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2025-02-15*

This is I supposed to be the reels channel app. But all you get is old past shows. Can’t see anything current. Needs live OnPatrol live to actually be LIVE!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-12-23*

Broken. Can’t even watch. This amount of bad reviews, apple should be able to shut the app down til they fix it.

### 1/5 — Few days

*2024-08-05*

It was fun to watch for a few days. Then it stopped working. Shame because it was enjoyable but now I will delete the app.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2024-04-29*

App does not play videos. Constant errors when trying to open a video. Fix it or remove it!

### 1/5 — Some Variety Wouldn't Hurt…

*2023-11-09*

This app has a lot of shows I love; love and miss those old reality/caught on tape/true crime type shows and one-off or few-off TV specials that were produced in the mid/late 90s and the early/mid 2000s. Thing is, the only way to sign in is with your cable/Internet provider and worse, Xfinity doesn't even work with it even though it's on the list. My Xfinity, as far as Internet service goes (that's the only service we have through it) is the highest tier you can get without upgrading to a business account; says so when the error message pops up after I select "Xfinity" in the provider list when trying to sign in.

You'd think they would've thought to include other ways of signing in/creating an account with them; things like signing in with your Apple ID, your Google ID, your Facebook page etc. Since most people stream things nowadays as opposed to paying for cable, that's definitely one way the app can be improved; get with the times!

I was especially excited when I found out "World's Most Amazing Videos" was available for streaming on this app; always hoped that one especially would be made available for streaming somewhere, some day as it's one of my absolute favorites in that reality/caught on tape category of shows/specials along with "Real TV".

### 1/5 — Don’t Bother

*2023-06-28, version 54*

App always crashes and doesn’t play episodes why even bother putting this app out.

### 1/5 — Can’t login with peacock or freecast.

*2023-05-28, version 54*

As the title states, unable to login with my peacock or freecast accounts. Please update. 1 star til updated.

### 1/5 — CERTAINLY GETS YOUR BP UP THERE

*2023-05-27*

I love Reelz content but so frustrated with this app I'm starting to really hate it. Same error message as everyone else and I have Optimum. Are they reading any of the reviews? It would seem ez to fix. Frustrated and extremely annoyed!

### 5/5 — No Picture-in-Picture

*2025-05-27*

The App works fine. Everything is good no problems in my end. I just don’t like how the App doesn’t have Picture-in-Picture can you please add that feature in the next updates?

### 5/5 — Apple TV Support PLEASE

*2023-02-26, version 54*

Please add Apple TV support to your app

### 5/5 — Great App

*2022-12-03, version 54*

I had problems playing videos at first but it works fine for me now!

### 4/5 — Thank you…..

*2025-03-23*

Literally saves me the aggravation of having to navigate different apps and their setups. I can turn on the TV and click on REELZ and there I am. Easiest thing ever. Only thing I don’t like is the pop up that asks if I’m still watching. PLEASE remove that. I’ll change my rating to 5 stars if you will do that.

### 4/5 — Sign in

*2022-07-06, version 51*

I love REELZ and so glad I have a way to watch. However when it calls me to sign in everyday no providers are listed. So I have to uninstall and reinstall the app everyday in order to sign in and watch.  Pretty please fix

### 3/5 — Need Airplay support

*2025-02-01, version 54*

I works.  Need airplay support on live tv video player to cast to a larger screen.

### 3/5 — Please fix app!

*2022-09-15*

I love REELZ but it’s aggravating to have to remove then reinstall every time I use it.

### 3/5 — App doesn’t load sometimes

*2022-08-28, version 53*

Great app when it works. Sometimes when you click on it it doesn’t load.

### 3/5 — Support TV app

*2022-07-25, version 51*

This app works on my iPad, but I would love to watch it on my Apple TV. Is this app going to be available soon for TV????

### 2/5 — FIX THE APP!!

*2024-08-28, version 54*

It’s been a year and I STILL can’t watch what I want because of y’all’s errors. Stop neglecting this issue 🤦🏾‍♀️
