### 4/5 — Really good app!

*2026-07-06, version 1.6.006*

This app is amazing! Definitely recommend it! Just when I watch the videos it won’t turn sideways and I have to watch them smaller. But other then that it is a great app

### 2/5 — pointless

*2025-05-12, version 1.6.006*

This app is absolutely pointless because barely ever is a new video uploaded or any update. It is much better to go to the website or yt channel.

### 4/5 — Ça bug

*2022-04-14, version 1.6.006*

On peut pas regarder les vidéo : quand on lance un vidéo ça charge mais ça reste un écran noir c normal ? Sinon bonne appli

### 2/5 — not as good as it could be

*2020-08-18, version 1.6.006*

i love the idea as a skater but there is almost 0 variety of videos. there's probably less than 50 videos on there. i dont see the point in using this app when i could look up everything thats on the app on youtube. you should add more videos, A LOT more videos to be exact

### 3/5 — Needs improvement

### 1/5 — Nope

*2022-09-20, version 1.6.006*

Not worth it until they add chrome cast to the app it’s literally the same as website user experience for smart phone. Add bronze 56k to YouTube aslo

### 1/5 — Videos Don’t play

*2020-05-01, version 1.6.005*

Every time I click on a video nothing happens, just a black screen. My phone is charged and has WiFi so I’m not sure what’s going on. Not a good app tho, I’ll just keep going to YouTube.

### 1/5 — Video issue

*2020-03-28, version 1.6.005*

Videos wont play

### 1/5 — Videos dont work

*2020-02-11, version 1.6.005*

Hi love thrasher content just cant watch any through app as it doesn’t work. Period. New up date has made it even worse, it used to play sometimes and now it doesnt work at all. Have reinstalled etc etc. Really want to watch and support you guys but am going to have to delete this rubbish

### 1/5 — doesn’t work

*2020-02-10, version 1.6.005*

no matter what i do the videos will not play it’ll just be a black screen

### 1/5 — Bruh

*2020-02-07, version 1.6.005*

Literally none of the videos play, i clicked on all the ones on the home page and they never load after i press play, the screen just stay black even though the rest of the page is fully loaded. Redownloaded multiple times and honestly finding skate vids that load is faster on pornhub than on this app.

### 1/5 — Videos not playing

*2020-01-02, version 1.1*

None of the videos actually load 😭

Aber das ist trotzdem sehr cool.
