1. 3/5Happy hour

   It’s just not TBS you can’t watch old episodes of American dad on any app The App is OK I only put it on so I can watch American dad episode but they only run like 5 episodes anerican dad used to show American dad in the afternoons on TBS but now the show is young Sheldon I mean come on guys you’re going to show reruns of friends all morning and young Sheldon in the afternoon you have so many good reruns and shows that you could re-run and even original shows that you guys made over the years that you can broadcast instead you broadcast friends during the day. Now instead of running 35 episodes of Friends from 7 am till 2 pm and young Sheldon from 2 till 7 pm you should split it up your time slots 7 AM to 10 AM your can run friends, from 10 o’clock to 2 o’clock you could run young Sheldon from 2 o’clock to 3 o’clock you can run an hour Bob’s Burgers then from 3 o’clock to 5 o’clock you could run two hours of American dad come from 5 o’clock to 6 o’clock you could run an hour of family guy from 6pm to 8 pm you run 2 hours of The Big Bang Theory then from 8 PM until 10 PM central standard time you’re on your new shows like miracle workers and OG then Goan after that at 10 PM at 10:30 you’re on Samantha bee on Wednesday nights and on the other nites of the week your run an hour of Rick and Morty then its 22 pm so run more big bang theory or maybe another rerun Those are just my thoughts and suggestions. But definitely run more American dad on the app.

2. 3/5Apple TV app is a 1, iPhone app is a 4 or 5.

   This works pretty well on the phone, but the Apple TV version is just plain awful. Navigation is horrific. It often even stops navigating around and I have to quit. When using my phone as the remote, when I search, it doesn’t pop up a keyboard on my phone to put it in quicker. Resuming movies does not exist, even though it shows before you click on the movie a bar with how far you were, but you click on the movie and it starts over (if it opens). And then scrubbing is not the best, and once you get it to where you want to resume and hit play, it continues playing where you were. It often takes 3-10 tries of scrubbing before it finally goes to the spot I picked. I also have to sign in every single time I use it. Just wrote this while sitting here with the movie I wanted to resume tonight endlessly loading in the background. Please, please, please fix this app! The iPhone seems to work well.

3. 1/5Worst app of all time for streaming

   This app is SO AWFUL I only use it to watch the post season baseball. And at that, it only crashes 40-50 times a game. Rewinds itself back minutes at times. Just shuts off goes black. Closes itself. It’s like whoever screwed up the Obamacare website when they got fired all started the TBS app. So far as I write this it’s stopped 4 times. The game is in The first inning and I’ve had to restart it over 10 times tonight. Piece of garbage. As big as TBS is you would think the app would be solid. And it isn’t new. This has been like this for at least two years. Oh. And if you want full content on your smart tv app, you have to download it to your phone and cast. So even the smart TV is garbage. I’ve made zero reviews on streaming apps. That’s how BAD this app is that I took time to even write anything. It’s complete garbage. Beyond garbage. If I made an app like this I would be fired for incompetence. TBS, GET IT TOGETHER. It’s 2020. People use apps and expect they work for the most part. This is a joke. UPDATE: about 15 minutes after I posted, no joke, it’s crashed at LEAST another 20 times and done all kinds of weird stuff rewinding. I can’t believe a major network’s app is so horrible. It’s so frustrating. I’ve had it on 4 devices over the years and does exactly the same thing. How anyone can rate this anything but a 1 surprises me. iPhone 8S plus. 6S Plus. iPad Max. And iPhone 11. All the same problems. Garbage. Just complete garbage.

4. 1/5Spontaneously rewinds during live sports broadcasts

   TBS and TNT, both during live sports broadcasts all of the sudden rewind back several minutes. Most infuriating is it typically happens during the 4th quarter in basketball or the 3rd period in hockey. There may be 3 minutes to go in game and then all of the sudden there’s 8 minutes to go. The quickest way to get back to live is usually to quickly tap screen to go to west coast stream and tap again to back to east coast stream. Then you have to sit through commercial again due to their screw-up (likely the reason they never fix this problem as I see there’s other complaints for same issue or for when it just freezes in general, also a typical problem). I have literally missed the end of games as it has happened near the end and as you try to get back to live feed it’s over. Could try to sit through the rewind and hope it doesn’t happen again but shouldn’t have to. I’m not sure developers want to fix this problem but if you don’t know how, maybe you should contact the developers of literally ANY other live stream app and ask them how to avoid problem since this only seems to happen with your apps. Will maybe leave exact same review on TNT.

5. 1/5Horrible app

   First off, why do I have to watch app ads before live tv when using the cable login I pay for? I’m paying to have tbs, which obviously shows ads, and the app shows even more ads. That’s overkill and annoying. Second, after that 30 second ad, it doesn’t even play what I’m trying to watch half the time. The feed fails around every 20 minutes on my iPad and apple tv which makes me exit, click live tv again, and watch another ad before I’m back live. It’s a horrible app and I wish they didn’t have NHL playoff rights. Oddly enough TNT’s app is fine and you’d think they’d be similar seeing as they are owned by the same company. UPDATE: Your help articles are a joke, they just say to restart the app or device. IF ONLY I HAD THOUGHT OF THAT! Tonight I was watching Caps Panthers game 6. With 2 minutes left the Caps were down 3-2 and pulled the goalie. Suddenly the video stopped and instead it would show a different still image every 5 seconds or so. I restart the app, watch the ad, and I was back just in time for the end of regulation and the Caps had scored to force OT. I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW BAD THIS APP IS AND HOW MUCH I NOW HATE TBS. You’re a television network. It’s 2022. You should know how to stream live video.
