| 2024-04-16 | Nice idea, but minimal return for money spent and a nearly unusable interface really ruin the experience. | ||

| 2024-04-11 | Works very well and has content that I love. The streaming is fast, crisp, and smooth; definitely less compression than YouTube. It's also continuously getting more features as time goes on. This is a product of love and passion as opposed to what YouTube has become, which I think is awesome. Absolutely worth it for content that isn't deemed "advertiser-friendly" by Google. I hope others end up enjoying it as much as I have! | ||

| 2024-02-11 | Paid a subscription in December but has not activated, contacted support but they have not been if any help. I suspect I may have to have the payment provider reverse the transaction at this point. | ||

| 2024-01-19 | Great app. It contains the 4 firearm channels that I watch the most. One-stop shopping is great. Continue the great work. | ||

| 2024-01-12 | Good content. Got into this from Ian and discovered more channels that I enjoy watching. Never have any bugs in the app either. These creators really planned out this app so well, it's replaced YouTube for me essentially. 😂 | ||

| 2023-11-07 | I love the app and the way it functions. I can see the potential in this platform. If we could get more creators on this platform it would be a 5/5 app. If you could get people like C&r, duelist54, Ron Spolmer, or anvil this platform could have the content and verity to occupy more of our time. All in all, a very good app. | ||

| 2023-10-28 | It's great having my favorite content creators all in one place, add free, and can download vids. The UI can be touchy at times. But I'm sure it will improve with time. This is a new platform after all. | ||

| 2023-10-18 | For $10.00 a month, there needs to be better content from Forgotten Weapons. That channel is the main reason I tried and paid for the app initially. I don't watch or subscribe to the other channels. Been a fan of Forgotten Weapons for years, however, I don't feel like the content justifies the price. The very short shooting videos that aren't being made available on YouTube by Forgotten Weapons seems odd, considering YT hosts other machinegun shooting videos still. Watch them for free on Playeur | ||

| 2023-10-02 | I wasn't exactly optimistic of how this app would work, but overall I think it's pretty darn great. My only critique would be to allow users to sort videos from a particular channel as well as allow users the ability to customize "their own page" | ||
