Review summary

Users largely report reliability and performance problems (white/blank screens, slow loading, and navigation friction). Watchlists often don’t reflect reality, and content updates are inconsistent or incomplete. A minority still appreciates the core idea and the ability to check off watched items, with some noting improvements over time, especially for Christmas titles. Overall, the app is seen as promising but buggy and not consistently usable.

Pros

Ability to check off watched items to track progress.
Appealing concept with a catalog including Christmas movies that some users enjoy.
Some users find the app reliable and easy to use when it is functioning.
Users note that there has been some progress in addressing issues over time.

Cons

White/blank screen or crash on startup and when loading data.
Very slow performance and long load times across the app.
Clumsy navigation, including having to press the back button multiple times to return to lists.
Watchlist/Want-to-Watch list inaccuracies or items not appearing as expected.
Content is not up-to-date or incomplete (missing older titles, lack of schedule info, and mismatches with checklists).

2026-04-11	Ki*****	This app is not working. I only get a while screen with logo. I need to be able to see movie listings (like the Hallmark app) so I can set DVR to record. Disappointed.

2026-03-01	hj*****	This app is a great idea but the execution is terrible. It is extremely slow to move around in. The my watch list section is always inaccurate. Anytime you go into a movie you have to click the back arrow twice to get back to the screen you were on. Simply put it’s tedious to use and frustrating they don’t seem to make any fixes. The Hallmark app is far superior.

2026-02-07	ju*****	Very slow to load. Have to keep logging in. After logging in I go back to the page I was on and it says to log in again. Please separate episodes for show series like, When Hope Calls,so we can check them off individually. It appears the last time this app was updated was 2 years ago. Please fix issues

2026-01-17	Ap*****	I love the fact that I can check off what I’ve watched, however, this app is extremely slow and it isn’t put together well. I’ve asked for help several times regarding Want to Watch list that says I have three items but when I click on it nothing appears.

2026-01-10	Mo*****	They need to update more often, show more than Christmas movies

2025-11-14	tl*****	This app is clumsy at best. There are way too many clicks necessary to choose movies seen or want to see. Like many others have said-All movies per category-Christmas, Romantic Comedies etc., should be listed on one page with a checkbox right there. This is an easy fix. Please care enough about viewers to get this right. We don’t need games within this app, at least until it works properly.

2025-11-09	Is*****	I had been logging in all the movies I have watched for years and all of a sudden everything is gone. Tried to sign in and couldn’t. Tried to change password and was told there would be an email which I never received. Just very frustrating. But I do love the programming especially during Christmas season.

2025-11-01	Ga*****	I have nothing show up but I plain white screen. I have removed and reinstalled the app twice and nothing has changed. Funny how you push downloading the app, but when it’s downloaded it doesn’t work.

2025-10-28	X1*****	Love the channel it is the best, but when I try to bring up my open app to see the 2025 checklist all that comes up is blank page and they just advertised the checklist on theGFAM channel on Direct TV. ☹️
