User Reviews

User reviews are largely negative; main pain points are constant buffering, intrusive ads, and cast/TV integration failures. Many report crashes after updates and bricked apps, slow loading, and audio dropouts especially after calls. Some praise is reserved for a version 3.2 with 'great features' suggesting the app can work well, but stability issues persist across most devices and updates. Overall, reliability and usability are major concerns; improvements in performance, ad control, and casting are repeatedly requested.
Pros
  • Latest version 3.2 works fine for some users and includes some great features.
  • Some reviewers note the app has solid features when functioning properly.
  • A minority of reviews report positive experiences with the app's functionality.
Cons
  • Constant buffering and slow loading across many reviews.
  • Excessive ads that disrupt playback and cannot be removed.
  • Casting to TV frequently fails, even for premium users.
  • Frequent crashes/bricking after updates, making the app unusable.
  • Audio dropouts or no audio after interruptions (e.g., phone calls).
