User Reviews

User reviews consistently cite geo-blocking outside the US, ad fatigue, and unstable playback as top drawbacks. Casting issues and login/privacy friction are also common irritants. Some users value free access for travelers, mobile viewing, and NBC News coverage. Overall, international availability, smoother casting, and reduced ad load are the main opportunities for NBC's app on iOS.

Pros

Free NBC content accessible while traveling abroad.
Convenient mobile viewing for on‑the‑go watching.
NBC News coverage can be accessed by viewers without a cable subscription (including abroad).
Positive overall sentiment on app quality and content from some users.

Cons

Geo-restrictions and area/zip code requirements block viewing outside certain regions.
Ad-heavy experience, including ads before or during live streams.
Frequent stability issues: crashes, buffering, and videos failing to load.
Casting/AirPlay problems and noticeable live stream latency.
Login/provider friction and privacy concerns (repeated login requirements and tracking prompts).

Recent reviews

Enjoy the app use it for news and information. Have watched a few TV shows on my phone. We have streaming services so to find it on my TV. I would have to go through different avenues to get local news, but I do enjoy using this.

I am constantly being told on the app that NBC is not available in my area. I have my cable subscription linked to the NBC app. I just do not understand why when I am 2 miles from home I cannot watch anything except NBC Now news. I live in an area that is large enough that I should have coverage. If someone could shed some light on this issue I would appreciate it since the only shows I mainly watch are on NBC and as a mom who spends lots of time waiting for the kids to be done with their practices and meetings I would love to enjoy some me time catching up on my favorite shows while I wait in the car.
