I only seen small mirror window and no bracket to expand window for closed captions to read better. I hope you will be able to add bracket to pull bigger picture to see better viewing. Please let me know how to resolve this matters to enjoy the show. Thank you. Jody K ### 4/5 — Small viewing screen *2026-08-13, version 4.4.4* Great but on phone it doesn’t become full screen when turning phone sideways ### 2/5 — No search function *2026-07-03, version 4.4.2* Makes it VERY difficult to use. ### 4/5 — I’d give this 5 stars but… *2026-05-30, version 4.4.2* Where is the search function? The shows available are fantastic, but you can’t pull up a search function. Other than that… I love this app. Commercials are unobtrusive and just enough to not be obnoxious. So please give us a search function and then in my book this app will be worth even more than 5 stars! ### 2/5 — Not satisfied *2026-05-17, version 4.4.2* It buffers a lot ### 2/5 — Annoying *2026-05-14, version 4.4.2* It has a decent amount of free stuff to watch but it constantly plays on my phone even if the app hasn’t been opened in days. I deleted it because of that. ### 2/5 — Make a better way to access the guide *2026-05-01, version 4.4.2* T ### 2/5 — Why is there no search button?!? *2026-03-17, version 4.4.2* Fr ### 3/5 — New to me *2026-03-12, version 4.4.2* Difficult to find “full screen” link. ### 3/5 — No way to search *2026-03-12, version 4.4.2* This is a very good option for streaming content. BUT, you can't search for a title. You can only browse what they have and that is too hard & takes too much time. Also, why is backing up so hard? It backs up 1 minute and not 10 seconds like just about every other service. Free always comes with a trade off. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t save favorites *2026-07-24, version 4.4.3* Not being able to save movies I wanna watch later is disappointing, and there’s not enough of a selection of them. Also there are far too many commercials. ### 1/5 — Deleted my free trial subscription within 2 hours of subscribing- no option to resub *2026-06-10, version 4.4.2* I signed up for the peacock 6 month free trial that comes with xumo, good through 12/10/26 and it worked all morning. I came back later in the day to continue watching and it had completely erased my account, told me I had no subscriptions, and only gave me the option to sign up again WITHOUT the 6 month free just the usual peacock trial. Most stupid useless app ever 10/10 would NOT recommend. Tried all troubleshooting methods as well btw. Edit: apps crash every 5 minutes at least and subtitles stay on for about 30 seconds before turning off soooo frustrating ### 1/5 — no worth anyone's time *2026-05-30, version 4.4.2* not much to watch no way to search except the hard way Extremely poorly made I will not be using ### 1/5 — There’s no search bar *2026-05-22, version 4.4.2* This the worst app ever created and no way I could ever find a show to watch without the search bar. Why this app be more like Pluto Tv ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-05-11, version 4.4.2* Horrible service should be ashamed of yourself ### 1/5 — No search bar *2026-05-02, version 4.4.2* There’s no search bar for specific shows ### 1/5 — No Search Bar *2026-04-07, version 4.4.2* How do you have a streaming app with no search function???? ### 1/5 — Refuses to cast to my TV or devices *2026-04-06, version 4.4.2* The movies play fine on my phone but I tried casting to my Samsung TV, my Apple TV, and my Chromecast and none of them worked. I tried Bluetooth and Airplay, everything I could think of and it doesn’t work. 🚮 ### 1/5 — I can’t see the program half the time! *2026-03-20, version 4.4.2* Glad you show Hallmark half the time I hear but can’t see the show! Please fix this! ### 1/5 — App issues *2026-03-11, version 4.4.2* Search bar? Also can’t hide recommended movies at the bottom of the screen? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best T.V.
