## Review summary

Reviewers value DRTV’s content, but repeatedly describe a frustrating app experience. Common complaints include crashes and general instability, unreliable login, and casting problems. Search and viewing-history features also disappoint users, who say they must search very specifically and often lose their place or see inaccurate recommendations. Several report the app running in the background and draining battery.

### Pros

- The app offers appealing content, including some that reviewers say is hard to find elsewhere.

### Cons

- The app is often unstable, slow, or prone to crashing, including during startup and playback.
- Login is unreliable: users report blank login screens, failed verification, and being repeatedly signed out.
- Casting and TV playback are flaky, with Chromecast connection failures and problems on Samsung TVs.
- Search is poor, and the app often fails to save viewing progress or accurately track watched episodes.
- Some users report excessive background activity and battery drain.
