### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-07-12, version 8.13.0*

One of the worst apps ever. Doesn’t work. Nothing loads. Won’t let me sign in. Won’t connect to streaming. Horrendous.

### 1/5 — Literal trash

*2026-07-12, version 8.13.0*

This app is literal garbage. Anytime you go to watch anything live expect to only get a 10 minute preview before having to sign in or subscribe. After you sign in or subscribe the app will just close itself over and over again. TNT app is a waste of time and actual trash.

### 1/5 — Boooo

*2026-07-09, version 8.13.0*

Can't login. Can't do anything. Can't watch anything.

### 1/5 — App is Trash

*2026-07-05, version 8.13.0*

App is terrible. Never loads and constantly kicks you off.

### 1/5 — Company is a joke

*2026-07-05, version 8.13.0*

Read the reviews….  Guess what I can’t login either.   I’m guessing no one in app support can read english.

### 1/5 — BROKEN APP

*2026-07-05, version 8.13.0*

Multiple people in the reviews have the same problem as me, yet they won’t do anything about it. It’s been like this for over a month. We can’t log into our tv provider so the app is useless. Should be 0 stars literally a useless waste of storage

### 1/5 — SUCKS!

*2026-07-05, version 8.13.0*

2 weeks now can’t SIGN IN VIA MY CABLE TV PROVIDER! TWO WEEKS! Unable to USE!

### 1/5 — Cannot sign in

*2026-07-05, version 8.13.0*

Have had the app for a full week and still cannot login with my tv provider. When I click sign in I just get a black screen with the loading wheel and it never loads. Have tried doing it on WiFi and cell service. Have tried uninstalling this app and reinstalling. Cannot sign in at all just sits and spins. What a damn shame because this is only chance I can get to watch NASCAR for next few weeks. Fix this please

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-06-28, version 8.13.0*

App crashes anytime you attempt to watch something live. Completely useless.

### 1/5 — Should not need an app to watch TV

*2026-06-28, version 8.13.0*

App won’t cast to TV. I don’t want to watch programming on my phone. This shouldn’t be a thing. Just another scam to steal your data.

### 1/5 — Sign in

*2026-05-30, version 8.12.2*

Doesn’t work.  Wont let me sign in to my cable provider.  The app doesn’t do anything.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-05-28, version 8.12.2*

This app doesn’t let you sign in. Hit the button, spins, nothing, button just reappears to sign in again. Been like this a long time. I’ve deleted the app completely, restarted phone, installed again, nothing. Pretty sad can’t get the sign in process right.

### 1/5 — Sign-in issues

*2026-05-28, version 8.12.2*

I've tried to sign in with my TV provider info on my phone. On my iPad. On the Roku stick.....still can't sign in. Tried to update the app to see if that works. Tried to update my phone. Nothing. Would be a nice app to use but, with it like this and missing playoff hockey ...... I'd give it a zero star rating if I could

### 2/5 — Closed Captions

*2026-05-27, version 8.12.2*

Please fix you app!   The inability to turn off closed Captions on live events has been going on too long!

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-05-26, version 8.12.2*

Constant commercials when switching streams. Not intuitive. CC is on and cannot figure out how to turn it off. 

No rewind or pause?

Completely worthless. Idiots making this app

### 1/5 — A

*2026-05-25, version 8.12.2*

Doesn’t work, unless app

### 1/5 — Casting not working

*2026-05-24, version 8.12.2*

Casting doesn’t work for the tnt app, but it does for CBS and TBS. Shouldn’t they have the same underlying software?

### 1/5 — CAN NOT LOG IN WITH TV PROVIDER

*2026-05-14, version 8.12.2*

App does not allow me to log in with my tv provider. I tried everything the help center told me to do and then reached out the help center and they were zero help to resolving the issue. I would reply to the emails and would get no response back about fixing the issue.

### 1/5 — Worst TV app

*2026-05-14, version 8.12.2*

Terrible won’t even allow you to login.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Never works

*2026-08-28, version 8.13.0*

Never works outside of preview time even with cable subscription.

### 1/5 — Nothing works

*2026-08-28, version 8.13.0*

You can’t sign in or do anything on this app without it freezing and nothing ever loads. Don’t bid for big game streaming rights and then flop when it comes time to stream. Awful app.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-08-04, version 8.13.0*

Tried signing in and won’t work on any device

### 1/5 — App doesn't work

*2026-08-02, version 8.13.0*

App won't allow me to log into my tv provider.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2026-07-26, version 8.13.0*

Live TV crashes way too much for 2026

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2026-07-26, version 8.13.0*

I downloaded hoping to watch a program on the go. Upon trying to sign in, it never worked. Not even when i switched wireless networks, restarted the phone or deleted and redownloaded the app. Missed my program as a result. Thanks for nothing TNT.

### 1/5 — Inoperable

*2026-07-26, version 8.13.0*

App is inoperable and doesn’t work. Cant sign into tv provider, constantly crashes, and even if it does work once in a blue moon, after a short time whenever you launch the app and select a program it crashes back to Home Screen.

### 1/5 — Respect the user

*2026-07-26, version 8.13.0*

The app does not permit simple app decisions. Closed caption can not be disabled and can not pause live events

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-07-26, version 8.13.0*

Awful app. I try to login to my tv provider to watch nascar. When I do and click on the race it just keeps crashing

### 1/5 — Sign in doesn’t work

*2026-07-26, version 8.13.0*

Similar to other reviews, I’ve removed the app, re downloaded, cleared my entire history, restarted my phone - every thing. The sign in button does nothing. I would LOVE to sign in but when you select that button at the top of the screen, or from your profile nothing happens. So so so frustrating. Do better.

### 5/5 — Watch TNT

*2025-12-20, version 8.12.1*

A great viewing  experience

### 5/5 — NASCAR

*2025-07-27, version 8.12.0*

Love watching NASCAR on here and love it if they keep doing this

### 5/5 — Terrible at screen mirroring

*2022-04-29*

Watching the app is great but when u need to stream a channel on the tv TNT blew it big time. I tried something they’re inept with, technical issues that I adjusted. WHAT A CONCEPT! I only got this for basketball playoffs and what a word I really want to say ING JOKE. So other than “great content” how are you guys any better than the other networks that don’t put out the same constant garbage somehow getting renewals when better shows get canceled but you gotta prevent that otherwise someone creative might take that “hard earned money” you pedestal lowlife silver spoon out of touch morons. Wish I could get rid of this crap channel. At least my condo pays for it. Lots of tumbleweeds running through your channel here. Can I give less than a star? I feel bad for the ones who earned it

**Developer response:** We are sorry to hear that you weren’t satisfied with your experience in our app. Our fans’experience is a top priority for us and we would love to hear any suggestions that you mayhave.

### 4/5 — Closed Caption

*2026-07-19, version 8.13.0*

I like this app, but when I run it on AppleTV, I cannot turn off the closed captions. It’s annoying because I use it to watch NASCAR and the captions are in the way of the leaderboard.

### 4/5 — Sign-in issues

*2025-04-27, version 8.10.0*

It’s a good all but on my iPhone mini 13 I have issue with it allowing my to sign into my cable provider.  Been 3 months and unable to use app cause of that issue.

### 4/5 — Pretty good but…

*2025-01-03, version 8.10.0*

You might get annoying sign in issues half the time. It forgets you then you relaunch and it knows you again.

### 4/5 — Good but hasn’t had updated features in years.

*2022-03-04, version 7.9.2*

For the past 4 years or so I have used the TNT app to watch NBA and movies. Everything is stable and smooth such as linking my TV provider, searching through movies, and the overall video performance. 

However, the only problem I have and would like to encourage the devs to push new features for the app. For example, most other video focused apps now allow you to switch over to messages without interruption to the video. Where there is a mini player whenever you exit the app. 

I think adding this feature would enhance the app and improve everyone’s viewing experience if we could switch over to another app during a  commercial break but still could watch without missing anything.

### 4/5 — Connect better via hdmi

*2018-05-29, version 4.11.2*

I use an lightening HDMI adapter to watch TNT on my TV through my iPhone.(I don’t have a tv that supports AirPlay, or Apple TV, whichever it’s called) Most apps work great but with this app the streaming is terrible while connected. It’s play sound and no screen, I’ll have to watch commercials a majority of the time because I have to restart the app to get it to work. I’ll have to start it up on my phone and connect it once the show already starts playing on my iPhone. I have to tap the screen to keep it on before my iPhone screen dims bc it won’t keep it on. 

App in general is great, when just on my iPhone it streams perfect. The problems arise when I connect is to my tv via HDMI. Would be 5 stars if this wasn’t a problem.

### 4/5 — So far so good

*2018-03-24*

App works nicely on my phone. The shows have streamed seamlessly without any hiccups or crashes. I also haven’t had any issues with the sign-in that other users have complained about so perhaps they’ve fixed those bugs already. One thing on the app I haven’t tried yet is the stream to tv feature with my Roku device, so I’ll update my review once I do. The only thing that is holding me back from giving it 4 stars though is that I wish it allowed us to download their shows ahead of time (even with commercials pre-downloaded is ok with me since they’re short on the app). I would hate to waste too much precious data on this since I don’t yet have my own plan and have to share data with my family, so I hope they implement this capability in the future. In fact if they do, it could potentially increase app engagement by a significant amount and help differentiate them from their competitors since not many tv network apps have this capability that I know of, other than STARZ.

### 4/5 — I-Pad user...

*2018-03-06*

I’ve read many reviews on this app before using and, while all apps have their shortcomings on one device or another, it works flawlessly on my IPad. The necessity for the extent of the commercials within ALL programs I have viewed to date is certainly contrary to one of the premises that individual video apps should be aspiring towards but, I suppose, the marketplace and it’s costs dictate such...don’t they? Or is this company simply trying to garner profit at every possible quarter without regard to building allegiances with their patron? The world of modern entertainment is rife with such profit vs duty to consumer questions. The company who finds, builds and delivers content withOUT the interruptions during the delivery/viewing will be the company who ultimately wins loyalty in their users. But surely the directors of such media stalwarts know that, right? Or is it simply about securing an ever increasing profitability and stock value? As I said, so many questions in simple delivery of something so simple these days...
