User Reviews

Reviewers consistently praise TYT’s content quality and independent journalism, with many long-time fans supportive of the show. However, the iOS app suffers from stability and playback issues—crashes, unreliable controls, and poor background/screen-lock behavior—along with lack of casting options and a more cumbersome post-update UI. Fans want a stable, feature-complete app that preserves strong journalism while restoring resume/continuous playback and cross-device streaming.

Pros

High-quality, independent journalism with diverse viewpoints.
Loyal, long-time subscribers who value TYT’s journalism and support it.
Honest, direct, and informative coverage praised by many reviewers.
Recognized as a trusted source of facts on topics like money in politics.

Cons

Frequent crashes and overall instability of the iOS app.
Unreliable playback controls: cannot resume, slow/erratic seeking, and frequent restarts.
Background playback and screen-lock behavior don't work; audio stops unexpectedly.
No TV casting/streaming options and other cross-device playback limitations.
Navigation and UI updates make the app harder to use after updates.

I’m a long-time fan of TYT. I’m not progressive, but I appreciate hearing many different sides of the issues at hand and TYT is very good at supporting their statements. The app experience, however, is abysmal. It’s basically just the mobile website, but it’s buggy as hell. Videos freeze all the time or restart and all I want is to play the show audio in the background while I work, but I can’t do that. If you lock your phone screen, go to your home screen or if audio plays from another source, then the TYT video completely stops. It is the year 2026. Why can I not have the video play in the background?? No joke it’s actually better to just use the mobile site. I’m giving 2 stars because I support the show, but the app itself is worthless. Please fix it.

Can’t stream to my tv with this app. No casting of any sort, about to cancel my membership of 10 years because they provide a subpar app not worth paying for! YouTube works fine never an issue !!!!!

Get halfway through a podcast and it stops playing every time and no amount of resetting will get it to work. Get a phone call while listening the a podcast and it restarts the podcast. So aggravating.
