### 1/5 — Very annoyed

*2022-06-30, version 1.26.0*

This app use to be amazing as the Crunchyroll app it’s self never worked on my TV so I switched to VRV as it seemed to work a lot better up until now, it is truly frustrating. Every day I get logged out of my account saying “your session expired. you were automatically logged out” it has never happened and it hasn’t even been a fully day since I used the app and it logged me out and it’s hard typing a long email on my tv remote, and also when a series has multiple versions like sub and dub and even season 2 and movies it doesn’t give the full title so I literally have to play a guessing game most the times if it’s subbed or dubbed and even on my phone is does that not just my tv, I am extremely upset that Funimation is going away because Funimation will always be better and work better for my TV, I am very disappointed and speaking off the sun and dub thing I specific series that was on Crunchyroll has the series dubbed but when it came to the VRV app it wasn’t even there I went through 5 different episodes to find dubbed to only find out there isn’t a dubbed season on VRV and yet it’s on Crunchyroll (I’ll just be going to Funimation anyways)

### 2/5 — Major fatal flaw

*2022-04-26, version 1.26.0*

The service is great, the app is great. It works as intended…. Until it doesn’t. I dealt with a minor bug for a long time. When watching offline content, if you leave the app open it will “lose” your progress on the episode. This is easily fixable by quitting the app and reopening it. The bigger issue I ran into is that I get randomly signed out. This will clear out all my downloaded episodes. Twice in one week I have had to log back into the app and redownload all my offline content. The first time it happened I lost over 100  episodes across 4 shows. I decided to lower it down to just one show but it happened again. This has happened to me a few other times, but now it’s starting to become a consistent issue that makes the app unusable to me. It doesn’t save your offline watch progress when online so I have to guess which episode to start downloading from if I haven’t been actively watching.

### 2/5 — Channels and subscription cost

*2021-12-16, version 1.26.0*

I’ve been subbed to VRV since AT&T implemented the streaming service option of choice. At the time you had plenty of channels to view but now your streaming service has lost all of the channels initially offered. AT&T is now only offering HBO max so my subscription through them will be ending soon and I am having a hard time seeing why I should continue to pay for your streaming service when that time comes. Your lack of channels is the main reason for that. The user interface is great but without content I might as well just go to Crunchyroll. Will the subscription fee be assessed and lowered due to the lack of available content? Are there plans to bring in new content? I just even realized that Hi-Dive is now gone and they had some interesting titles available. I know Crunchyroll’s app isn’t all that great for the user interface but if all you have is Crunchyroll in your lineup I might as well just start using them. Your service is $10 and I could get theirs for $8 dollars. I hope you bring in new content or revise your subscription cost. At this time your service shouldn’t cost more than $5 for the premium service because lack of content.

### 3/5 — Sign up and login

*2021-12-14, version 1.26.0*

Okay I generally like the app and I have never done one of these reviews but because I like the app I am ok so here’s the gist I am not very happy about the whole premium too download because that is what I was looking for in a anime app and the adds are also a really nuisance pretty much the same problems as the other people with that but the main and probably the only thing that sealed that I like this app I can use it on school Wi-Fi and I LOVE that but I can not sign up and when I do it says at the bottom of the screen in red “there is something wrong : (“ and I also tried to login to see if maybe it went through but it says the same thing and I don’t like it because l then have to search up for the anime and then I have to skip through the anime back to my spot and then it goes through the adds again and then it just freezes up at the app so can you please fix this please do the sign up thing first please please please PLEASE

### 3/5 — Decent app, needs work

*2021-09-30, version 1.24.0*

I’ll start off by saying the quality of the content is great. It’s a massive bang for your buck because for $10, you get access to the entire Crunchyroll library as well as Rooster Teeth, HiDive, and others. Considering the regular CR subscription is $8, there is almost no reason not to get the $10 VRV subscription which has at least 3 times more content. Video quality is pretty good as well and I like how you can access the user comments section from the app, unlike CR. 

Now for the bad. The video player itself is weird to me. This might just be personal preference, but it feels cheap, kind of like the old Crunchyroll player. Second, you cannot sort shows by genre!! This is super annoying for me because sometimes I’m interested in a particular type of show, but you can’t search for that on VRV. You can only filter by network. Finally, some shows have different versions which are not clearly labeled. In my experience this only affects the HiDive content, but it’s weird to have two versions of the same show, same season, but not know what the difference is.

### 4/5 — Good 😊 but has some cons.

*2021-07-22, version 1.23.0*

This is good I could have put this 5 stars but the ads are getting annoying yes you can buy it but what I meant is that they don’t put it where there are breaks in it they put it in middle of action or something. I have 2 suggestions reduce the ads my like 1-3 not 4-5. If not optional how about a add clip reduction. Also another one is that so far I or some of us probably hate a video around end of a season or new and only watch 1-3 and can’t watch any further unless get a subscription. I had to use another app just to watch of a good show I liked. But with all these me whining this is pretty good I like your anime shows you guys pick 😊. This has lots of potential just simmer it down or people won’t like the app much unless they have money of course 🤣. Well if your reading this good job and keep up the work 😊 👍

### 3/5 — Lack of content

*2021-01-11, version 1.22.0*

Been using the app for some time now, and at first I was satisfied. Moved from crunchyroll over, and was impressed by the line up at the time. But then as years passed, creators have been somewhat soft. I understand that there are limitations or boundaries, but why, and this is figurative speech, castrate artistic ability. There have been gems here and there that have been worthwhile and satisfying, but anime as whole should be limitless. It’s matter of escapism to tell stories, experiencing emotions, to create memories. Our opinions alone , are “our opinions”. They shouldn’t force a creator into a narrative they don’t want. People will agree or disagree, but in the end let not one person’s opinions be casted for everyone, but rather hear the collective of opinions from the actual people who go the mile to enjoy the content of the artist. I definitely see this app having potential if the people running it would not let their personal or political bias ruin it for the rest.

...Oh and some the functions for seasons of a series are not working (I.e One Punch Man). It says that it has three seasons, but only shows season one without being able to change it. Have yet to try on other viewing platform other than IOS, but an update or fix would be nice.

### 5/5 — I love this app!!!

*2021-01-07, version 1.22.0*

I love how they don’t force you too watch adds and interrupt your video you are watching and that if you want you can support them by purchasing premium but once again they don’t force you too. That’s what I love about this app unlike crunchyroll it interrupts you and you have to watch an add unless you purchase premium and the adds are super long! Like 90 seconds compiled of 3-4 adds. Vrv is just such an amazing app with almost every anime you can imagine sure they don’t have some under the radar anime but almost all of the anime you can think of they have!! This app is beyond amazing seriously. Once again they don’t force you to buy premium but it would be good too because they don’t force you too watch ads so they must be lacking in funds to keep it running and getting permission from the anime’s..

### 3/5 — Good but hard to use and lack of search tools

*2020-12-28, version 1.22.0*

I’ve been liking my subscription so far (I am a premium member), however when it’s on mobile videos take forever to load and even then continues to buffer throughout the episode and I am constantly having to pause the video and wait,But on PS4 that is not a problem which is really confusing. Also, I have a lot of difficulty searching for specific and amazing genres that I like because the only searching tool there are based on channel or if you know the actual name of the anime searching for using the genre (I.e. action, romance, etc.) simply isn’t possible. By no means am I saying it is a bad service, however there are some real issues in its own usage as both a mobile and web service.

P.s. I know the anime libraries consist mainly of subtitled animes, however a feature for sorting dubbed and subbed would be a nice quality of life feature as well as a channel sorting feature since the same show could be available among different channels and offered in different manners like an anime being subbed and dubbed on Hi-Dive but only subbed on CrunchyRoll

### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2020-12-11, version 1.22.0*

I enjoy the content on this app, but sometimes it gets on my nerves and is extremely hard to watch anything at all. I personally do not use premium because I only get on every once in a while, but when I do it’s difficult to get the shows to start, and even if I can, the ads will most likely ruin it. Sometimes when I get ads, it plays the same thing four times in a row, never plays at all, plays over the show, suddenly pops up when it is in between ad breaks, plays two ads at a time, or shuts me out altogether. Even if I can get through the ads, I am usually met with more problems. For example, if it does not load an ad it might skip straight to the show, which might be good if it didn’t bug the app, and make it so that I can’t pause, rewind, or fast forward, or even get out of the show or use settings. Also sometimes i will finish ads and it will suddenly stop showing subtitles on subbed shows and/or randomly pause every few seconds. I have seen that premium works a lot better on the app, but you should make it more accessible and enjoyable for the people who do not have premium
