Worst streaming app

Won’t save your place when watching episodes. Constantly non responsive and have to swipe app away and reopen

Great until you have a problem

I like STARZ until you have a problem then it’s wait and nobody knows what you’re talking about. I’m no longer a customer because they don’t understand unless it’s something simple.

Absolutely horrible app design

This app restarts on me constantly. It doesn’t keep track of where in an episode I left off, so I have to fast forward till I find where I was. If I accidentally toggle my pull-down menu while doing so, it kicks me out of the show and the app will not respond till I close it out and restart it. I’ve had to do this 5-6x IN A ROW because the app doesn’t keep track of where I left off!!!! I’m so frustrated!!!

STAY AWAY

STAY AWAY. This company survives on false advertising. When you try to cancel, they dangle a 'reasonable price' in front of you — I said yes and they hit me with a $75 charge instead. That 'reasonable price' magically gets pushed to another year. Try to contact them and they interrogate you for an absurd amount of personal data just to prove you're even their customer. Then they promise you a refund, leave you on read, and answer with empty words. It's disgraceful that a company stays afloat by scamming its own customers.

Can’t continue watching…

If I leave the app and come back, it will not allow me to continue watching where I left off. Have to close the app, reopen it, search for the series, then fast forward to resume watching. Netflix and Prime will, but STARZ won’t. Very frustrating and a waste of time.

Terrible App

The app is terrible compared to other streaming apps! Not talking about the shows and movies on there but just the app it’s self is dumb. Like I can’t even pull my screen down to check the time without it closing out my show and I have to go in and out the app repeatedly just to watch a damn so! Please fix the app!!!!

Decent, but improvement needed

I really enjoy some of the movies and shows available on STARZ, but unfortunately, the app itself can be frustrating to use. It frequently experiences stability and playback issues that take away from the overall viewing experience.

Sometimes the app unexpectedly crashes or closes on its own. Other times, I’ll select a movie or show and press play, only for nothing to happen, forcing me to close and restart the app. I’ve also experienced situations where the audio begins playing, but the video never appears.

These issues happen often enough to become frustrating, especially when I’m just trying to sit down and enjoy something. STARZ has some great content, but the app needs better optimization, stability, and more reliable video playback. I hope these problems are addressed in future updates because they really affect an otherwise enjoyable streaming service.

App freezes and have to restart a lot

Worst app on iPhone I think movie disappears and app freezes up have to restart and refind spot

I hate this

Why sex shows

👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

I’m not a person that leaves reviews I don’t necessarily bother with them. Because the real reviews I think it washed away from the fake ones, but app ever. Like I said, I’m not a review person, but this app is so bad. It’s so frustrating. It a one star and leave a review past reviews. I’ve read are the same issues that I’m having so I’m not gonna point them out here definitely will be deleting this app once I’m done watching outlander.

Too Many Glitches

Issue is the same on iPad & iPhone. The app is closing by itself and plays content in the background. You can hear it, but can’t see it or pull the app back up. You have to force close the app and the episode restarts. Progress of episode is not being saved and restarts each time you return to the app. Click selection is not working for many areas of the app. I am having to specifically go into my playlists to scroll through and select episodes of a series. The is no update shown needed that could fix these glitches. Please repair. Thank you!

App needs some work

The app doesn’t show me what I was watching last and give me an option to restart from where I left off. When I do find the show after searching, it starts the episode from the beginning…. Then when I try to fast forward to where I left off, the app crashes… Horrible!

Horrible App

Restarts the episodes over. Shuts off mid episode. Updating app and deleting and reinstalling does not work.

raggedy app

app is so raggedy it keeps just glitching

Issues

Il be watching something and need to stop go back to app to continue where I left off and it won’t play I reset the app and it makes me start the show or movie from the beginning because it’s not in the continue watching anymore very annoying issue

Not working well

This app isn’t working well anymore. I’m not sure what the problem is.

Review

The app plays movies good until u need to click out of the app you know it makes the show smaller and it puts it in the corner on ur screen, oh well not starz nope it closes the show in the app and the only way to open the show again is if u restart the entire app close it out then reopen in

Poor quality

I can’t watch starz on my phone because it consistently closes out my video only showing the menu and it also doesn’t save my last spot of if I tune in later to finish. Very annoying I’ve had it. Will be canceling soon.

Buggy

Every time I get a phone call or go to respond to text the app crashes and I have to restart the episode all over again and if I try to skip to were I was it crashes again it’s very frustrating

Glitch

If I am in the middle of an episode on a mobile device and I get a call or swipe out of the app to do something else. When I go back to continue watching the same episode it either starts from the complete beginning or doesn’t started at all. Then I have to force close the app and it starts over anyway. Very inconvenient. Sometimes I just don’t bother watching anything.
