1. It goes without saying that this is a huge amount of ads, but x2?????? Most of the time I stop watching and get fed up when this happens, it's taking me a LONG time to catch up on Love Island, and I might not watch it again this yearIt's shocking putting ads in the middle of live events when there are not supposed to be ads, happens a lot where it'll be an important moment in the match and it'll cut to an ad in the middle of the play then you miss it.
2. Brilliant if you love watching ads, otherwise pretty uselessTerrible app, can't stream because It keeps freezing on the ads and then you have to watch 6 ads multiple times, and when it finally starts you have to scrub to where you were.
3. Ads during live sport is totally unacceptable, ire v eng 6 nations grand slam and triple crown on the line and twice during live play ads start playing.
4. Especially annoying when watching a live event (for example a penalty shootout in the Europa League final.) Chromecast playback is also abysmal when casting.
5. Iv been trying to watch the news @5.30. I'm only been given the option of watch 2 episodes from the previous week.
6. Also, no Love Island available for more than a week now... I work nights and relied on this app to keep up to date... very frustrating 😪A horrible app to try and use.
7. App seems like an afterthought – poorly implemented (even by afterthought standards).The video playback feature rarely remembers correctly where you've stopped watching.
8. Within a few minutes the audio goes out of sync, and if you open the app on your phone at any point the stream refreshes and about 20 million ads start playing.
9. Has this player even been tested?Awful app, which shows an obscene amount of ads everytime you want to so much as pause a video.
10. Polling also forces play to stop, if a valid offsite connection switches to Wi-Fi.
11. Then when there is no ads it's constantly freezing no matter the device or signal speed.Ridiculous constant polling.
