User Reviews

Users largely praise Dove Channel for safe, family-friendly, faith-based programming, with a broad catalog of age-appropriate titles. However, multiple reviews converge on the same pain points: poor landscape support and orientation issues on Apple devices; frequent login/subscription and billing headaches; unstable app performance; and a clunky UI/navigation that complicates finding content. These reliability and usability problems overshadow the positive catalog for many users.
Pros
  • Family-friendly, Christian-aligned content appropriate for all ages.
  • Wide range of wholesome titles and classics families can enjoy together.
  • Perceived safer alternative with less explicit content than mainstream streaming.
Cons
  • Landscape/orientation support on Apple devices is faulty; app often stays in portrait or does not rotate as expected.
  • Frequent login/subscription issues, including being asked to sign in repeatedly, subscription recognition problems, and difficulty canceling with billing complaints.
  • App reliability problems: crashes, won’t open on Apple TV/iPad, freezes or glitches, and distorted UI after updates.
  • Clunky UI/navigation: unclear menus, no effective search, and signup dialogs obstructing input.
  • Device management friction: limits on removing or changing devices and confusing 90-day deletion limits.

The app itself could use a few improvements for the iPad. It doesn’t not fully support Landscape view for iPad. Most people who are streaming on an ipad will probably have the ipad in a landscape mode case that props up the ipad for viewing (like almost every ipad case I see does this). The Dove app welcome screens only work in portrait mode. Even if you open the Dove app with the ipad in landscape mode, Dove will flip into portrait mode and make you accept cookies (every time!) and then you are stuck in portrait mode while you select your content. Once your content is selected you can go back to Landscape mode. Another annoyance is that the the iOs operating system icons at the top of the ipad screen will not disappear. The little bluetooth, wifi and battery status icons are always present. Its minor but it takes away from the full screen experience. I shouldn’t complain for a service that I am able to access for free via my Library card and Hoopla service. (I love the Dove Channel Binge Passes!). So perhaps these annoyances are not present for premium paid subscribers, in which case I am really not complaining too much. I’m glad to be able to watch some clean shows without paying premiums.
