It doesn't play live tv shows. I link the tv provider account and hit the LIVE option, then it shows me what it is supposedly going to play, then it buffers and shows endless commercials, and then it doesn't go to my show. It's literally only ever showed me 1 tv show on the LIVE option. Some cop show. I have to wait 2 days before the show I'm trying to watch is available. Deleting the app once again because it's absolute garbage.

AMA Supercross was live on USA. I downloaded the app, signed in with my cable provider and clicked on the "Live" tab. Three dots (the loading screen) appeared and stayed there... for over 12 minutes. Never did load ANYTHING except those dots. I will be uninstalling this App and won't reload it. Don't waste your time, like almost every other review listed on this, let me say it again...IT. DOES. NOT. WORK.

non functional. clicking around results in nothing working. finally after a lot of workarounds i got it to prompt me with a sign-in to provider. You used to just be able to watch some older shows and such on their website but this app doesn't allow much of anything. don't bother with this thing. they should have put that front and center that it's a paid-only app

Like other have mentioned this app is riddled with issues. Any device you install it on it will constantly buffers or gives errors. I've tried it on Firestick, Chromecast with Google TV, casting to a Chromecast using my android phone. Doesn't matter. All devices have issues. By the way. I have a bunch of other live TV apps and this is the only app that is unwatchable.

NBC Apps are the worse! Using a Note 9 and S9, same problems on both phones. You think the developers would compare their apps to Fox, AMC, The CW, ABC, Discovery, and see why competitors apps are way better. Casting is basically useless. I'm constantly having to clear cache/data and reset apps to cast. And if you don't remember where you left off, every time you search for your spot, be prepared to watch 3 minutes of ads. Sometimes it takes 20 min of ads to find my last place.

5/15/20: Still buffers every few seconds despite latest updates. Same ongoing issues as reported. Live TV stream goes less than 3 minutes before "Buffering" happens. "Buffering" happens a 2nd or 3rd time, then app locks up. Anyone think that 5G is going to resolve this Loading and Buffering replay? Think again. Makes for a least watchable experience. Worse is some genius decided to insert a VMWare ad in the middle of a live streaming episode in progress. Then, buffering resumes.

Worst streaming app for any network. You're better off waiting for Prime Video to get the show and just watch it from there. App takes forever to start, then when it actually plays the show it just crashes. and the worst part, when it reloads from the crash they force you to watch the commercials agains. I'm convinced they actually put this big in on purpose so that they can make more money from ads.

After the recent update I am unable to link my TV provider! Sigh!!! --- Casting on Chromecast is close to a nightmare. Clearing cache/storage and sign in again and it might work. Closed captioning doesn't work as well (you see the subtitles show long before the dialogue is actually spoken). I wonder if this app went through a basic QA process. Really good shows but a horrible app to host them 😪

Can't give less than 1 star otherwise I would. I have yet been able to watch anything in its entirety. Connectivity problems are constant issue. I don't have any connectivity issues with any other streaming service, just this one. I've tried numerous times to watch different shows & movies over a period of months & it's always the same thing...either I can't connect or I lose connection partially through. This is the worse streaming service I've come across.

This is the worst streaming app I've ever used. It crashes more than half the time and when it does work it constantly bugs out and closes the player. This wouldn't be an issue but every time I click on a show to reopen the player and continue watching it forces me to go through ads. This has happened to me up to 6 consecutive times, each time I had to bare with 5 ads just to get to the show I was watching. If you have ANY other way to watch the show you like, DO NOT download this app.

Does it work? Sure, it "works". But man, this has to be one of the most poorly optimized apps I've ever used. It devours my battery unlike anything else, sometimes I can't even charge my phone while I'm watching. It just keeps me at whatever battery level I started with, and my phone often overheats. And after 10-15min of watching, the stream starts stuttering. I have to force close and reopen the app to get it to stop. Every. Single. Time. Shame it's the only way to watch most EPL games.

trying to watch live TV and it keeps looping to the same 5 or 10 seconds previously. closed app and opened back up again to no avail. uninstalled and reinstalled with hopes it'll work properly. with the latest update (may 15, 2019), it says bug fixes. what kind of 'fixes' were performed?! it's worse now than it was before! if there was an option of less than 1 star, that would be more accurate.

This has to be the worst network app. it makes me sign in to my cable account everytime i use it. It takes forever to launch. Seems to use alot of resources to run. When i do get it to work, it stops streaming randomly especially with live streaming. I can never watch content without having to restart the streams at some point. i can watch other apps for hours no issues. This app is just filled with interuptions.

The app is extremely slow no matter what my network strength is. When you click on the show you want to watch it takes ages for the episodes to come up. It was so bad I thought I was crazy and doing subverting wrong until I realized it's just working at a snails pace. Constantly buffers and it always freezes on the commercials and then I have to re-start it all over again from the beginning of the commercial run which are like in a row. Also there is no previous seasons to catch up on only current. I'll get my shows elsewhere this app is so poorly done for a big network its sad.

Nice interface, slick design. Good content, good variety. There is just one problem though... IT DOESN’T WORK! No videos load at all. Just the spinning loading wheel. The worst is for live sports - Premier League games simply do not load. Really disappointed with this, especially considering that the Premier League is the only reason I got the app. 👎

This app is total junk! It is incredibly unstable - it crashes all the time. Sometimes there is no sound, and sometimes it just dies while we are in the middle of a show. It is not my phone or internet provider either. I have several Chromecast devices and I run Google TV on my main TV. I do not have issues like this with any of the other apps I am running. Beyond frustrating!

I like the selection of shows on the USA app. It seems to play for me just fine. However, the number of ads that are shown during one 30 min program are ridiculous. The majority of the shows are locked & can only be unlocked by syncing your cable service provider account. Many people don't have a service provider to sync with & are just out of luck. If the number of ads were reduced & you could just download the app & watch the shows, I'd gladly give this app 5 stars.

The picture quality is nice, audio on the other hand comes off as distorted at times. I find this rather odd considering the other streaming apps can't relate to these issues. The worst issue however is associated with casting, it tends to buffer/freeze at times. Now when you attempt to resolve the issue by stopping the cast, it only regresses from there. It ultimately just stops working(audio no video/neither exc.).

This app is a headache. It's lags and is super slow on the Firestick. Takes about 10 seconds just to scroll down...let alone how long it takes to finally upload a video. The app is even worse. Never have I ever had to manually type in the app my user and pass. Usually I get a link and confirm like that. This app is behind in times and it's like the creators do not care. I've downloaded this app off and on the past 5 years and the only difference is the new shows added. 5 years and no real change

Trying to use this app on my Galaxy Fold 5 is a nightmare all of a sudden. When trying to watch live content like Monday Night Raw the app constantly switches between landscape and portrait mode. Even if I lock the orientation it still doesn't work. It happens constantly so the video never plays and the stream is 100% unwatchable. I hope this gets addressed with an update or else I am just going to get rid of this app.
