### 4/5 — .

*2025-05-13, version 2.5.1*

I wish it would show what videos I’ve already watched.

### 3/5 — Doesn’t switch to portrait on iPad

*2024-09-27, version 2.3.0*

The app is fixed in vertical. So if you use the Apple iPad keyboard, your iPad is horizontal but the app is sideways. 

Please allow it to flip orientation to match the device.

### 3/5 — Great Content…

*2024-05-30*

But please please please add an option to filter out played/unplayed content on the feed. As someone who is trying to go back and watch all of BNC its super annoying that the only way I can go back to where I was is by endlessly scrolling or, hopefully, remembering the exact date of where I was. Being able to filtered out all the videos I’ve already watched would be a tremendous help. Truly my only qualm with the app, but it is incredibly annoying.

### 3/5 — Needs fixing

*2024-01-26, version 1.13.2*

Keeps making me log in every single time I open the app and there’s no option to autofill so it gets very tedious. Pls fix thanks!!

### 3/5 — Good content buggy app

*2023-10-14*

No complaints about the quality or amount of content. There’s no trouble accessing content. However if I’m listening while at work using data. Or at home using Wi-Fi. The podcasts will just stop but it says it isn’t stopping playback. So then I have to restart the app and everything functions properly. I wouldn’t mind that if it happened every couple of podcasts or whatever. But it’s on every single show and within like 30-40 minutes into it it just stops?

### 4/5 — More devices

*2023-09-25, version 1.12.3*

Good stuff, would be 5 stars if it was iPad compatible. At the moment it can’t go full screen on iPad. And maybe Apple TV after that?

### 4/5 — Make an iPad friendly version pls!

*2023-08-28, version 1.12.3*

Plssssss

### 4/5 — Love the content but subtitles are sorely needed

*2023-06-25, version 1.10.1*

I pay for the studio tier and listen to pretty much every episode that gets released. However it does bother the crap out of me that I have no subtitles available to me. I would even take a ripped auto transcription off the YouTube upload than to continue to go without SOME cc

### 3/5 — No iPad app?

*2023-06-17, version 1.9.1*

Most stuff is great, and already leagues ahead of Patreon; but an iPad app is desperately needed for watching on flights :(

### 5/5 — haven’t downloaded yet

*2023-06-16, version 1.9.1*

just wanted to give 5 stars to my boys

### 4/5 — Bencels Rise Up

*2023-04-23, version 1.9.1*

3 months into the app, so upset I was never a patreon subscriber. Bonus episodes are the best. Shoutout to the OGs for creating an awesome content platform. 

The only disappointing thing about the app is the design/functionality. I’d ask for a few things: 

1. Downloads need to be native. It’s so hard to download eps onto my files (iOS), and the player never bookmarks where I left off. I always revert back to Spotify to listen when I’m traveling and off network (on a plane). 

2. Make the user interface look cleaner. The mobile app is busy, especially with showing all forms of episodes on the feed. Let us click/tap through and select audio OR video. And hide comments/descriptions. It takes up too much room. 

3. Mark as played. Oftentimes it’s hard to tell where you left off if you’re going back through old eps and want to catch up. Should be a things. 

4. Save to favorites. Like an episode? Let me bookmark it. Would be a great feature. 

5. iPad/tablet version

### 5/5 — Love the new app

*2023-03-02, version 1.9.1*

You can really tell they use to be coding engineers the app is crisp and easy to use/find content. Keep up the good work and thanks for making such a good place to watch your videos

### 5/5 — It’s great

*2023-02-19, version 1.9.1*

No joke unironically non-biased: it’s really good.

### 3/5 — (Forgot Password) doesn’t work

*2023-02-18, version 1.9.1*

I can’t login to my already premium subscription because I forgot my password, so about 5 times now i’ve tried to have the app/website send me the password reset link, but I still haven’t gotten the email. I just wanna listen to the boys… 
(otherwise app would be 5 stars)

### 4/5 — Great Content and App; No Subtitles

*2023-02-13*

I enjoy the shows and the app runs well, but the lack of subtitles with the videos sometimes makes it difficult for me to follow all of what is said.  Adding the option for this accessibility feature to video content would make a world of difference for folks like me.

**Developer response:** Hey Bobrox/sarah! We've added the Closed Captions to the videos - enjoy!

### 1/5 — content is great, app itself struggles

*2025-05-02, version 2.5.1*

every time i open this app i have to log in twice, and it never remembers my login info. and that’s if i get lucky and it doesn’t decide to randomly log me out again just for briefly opening another app.

### 1/5 — Legends 🔥

*2023-11-23*

So glad that Noel and Cody quit their jobs as software devs to do YouTube, because this app is hot garbage 🔥 I can only imagine it’s the short kings themselves writing code for this 🔥

### 1/5 — Good content bad app

*2022-07-07*

The boys are still killing it with the pods. I love tmg but this app is so brutal to use it has made me not want to listen anymore :( it never remembers where i left off and randomly the sound just cuts out but it still keeps moving through the episode so by the time it starts to work again like 10 minutes has passed by and it’s frustrating (and semi dangerous) trying to get back to where i was while driving. Im disappointed in this app but hoping theyll make it better!

**Developer response:** Hey Fitz11fan, thank you for your feedback! We have just released an update (1.7.0) which greatly improves the audio player. Let us know how it works for you!

### 1/5 — Charged but can’t access :/

*2022-07-06, version 1.3.3*

Really love the podcast was super excited to get the bone zone episodes but after my first month using the app it said that I haven’t paid my bill but on Apple it says I paid and have a month of access right now. Pretty bummed and feel scammed

### 1/5 — Problems

*2022-06-14, version 1.3.0*

Am I the only one that can’t sign in on the app or website. Just keeps saying page doesn’t exist

### 2/5 — Need a played vs unplayed category

*2024-12-12*

I’m paying for a premium and I have no idea what old episodes I’ve watched and haven’t watched. Needs some kind of filter like Spotify

### 2/5 — Weird app

*2024-09-16, version 2.2.0*

I subscribe to bncmap, and I love their podcast but the app is SO HARD TO WORK WITH. It is so hard to have everything in chronological order so I can listen to BNCMAP and then the very next close friends episode. Instead I have to scroll and scroll and scroll, not knowing the number that the close friends episode is labeled. So annoying. Also the comments take up a lot of space on the main page which clutters everything.

### 2/5 — This app sucks

*2023-03-05*

I love the tmg guys, and I have for years and will continue to but oh my god this app is terrible. Half the time it does not let me add filters. I try to select a specific date to catch up on what I missed but it simply doesn’t let me, and I have to close the app and open it again and try again. Half the time the podcast just freezes and no amount of buffing fixes it and I’m forced yet again to close the app and redo the entire process all over again. It’s annoying when I’m at work trying to listen to a podcast but it takes 15 minutes just to get one going. This app does not deserve the rating it gets, download at your own risk

### 2/5 — This app is punishment for paying subscribers

*2022-10-25*

Fellas, love the pod but this app is buggy and incredibly tiring to navigate. Pls stop punishing me for paying for your content ty.

### 2/5 — Bug

*2022-10-04, version 1.7.0*

When I click to play anything is pretends to load then it disappears not allowing me to view or watch any of the shows. Was working fine earlier today but now is not.

### 5/5 — Apple TV App

*2025-03-04, version 2.5.1*

Love love love - please make an app for the Apple TV!

### 5/5 — iPad optimization

*2024-06-13, version 1.13.4*

Love the app on my iPhone but when I use it on my iPad it’s too small, would be great if they optimized it better on there.

### 5/5 — Perfect advise

*2024-06-04, version 1.13.4*

Been watching the main podcast for almost three years consistently and have to say i’ve learned so much engineering info my family now comes to me with any tech troubles with the iPhones and smart watches. So if your looking to get on your tech grind i strongly recommend!

### 5/5 — came with a bang

*2024-01-14, version 1.13.1*

never came so hard after buying a pay wall

### 5/5 — Amazing App, Amazing Podcast

*2023-11-30, version 1.13.0*

been a huge fan of the podcast and this app is very good, rather than using patreon!

### 5/5 — Awful

*2023-11-28, version 1.13.0*

Worst app I have ever used in my life

### 5/5 — Podcast changed my life

*2023-11-03*

I was in a dark place in my life. Addicted to drinking, doing blow on weekends, and neglecting my responsibilities of being a father and husband. My wife and I were considering a divorce and my kids never felt happy to be near me. But one day, during my drive to work at the Saskatchewan Oil Rig, I decided to go to my recommendation on my Spotify podcast and decided to check the Tiny Meat Gang. It was a life changing. After only a few episodes, Noel and Cody gave me so much hope and inspiration to change my life and become a better man for myself and family. They’re helpful advice on finance, beating addiction, vacuums, and relationships made me the man I am today. I can proudly say that im a millionaire after creating a tech start up, in the best shape of my life, my family loves being around me all the time, and my wife adores me more than ever. All thanks to The Tiny Meat Gang. Thank you so much Cody and Noel.

### 5/5 — Recent Issue

*2023-10-28*

App is great and worth the subscription if you like this kinda content. Recently I’ve been getting logged out randomly from the app even while I’m listening to an episode. It’s been going on the last few days

### 5/5 — Love your work

*2023-09-28, version 1.12.3*

This app literately works better than Spotify. The subscription is so worth all the bonus content. 
I also love the comment section in the app because it makes it feel like more of a community of viewers.

### 5/5 — i mean sure

*2023-06-24*

the app brought my mom back to life, thanks cody and noel 🙏🏼
