8 of 15You would have a great app. But your ads are getting to be too much. Your app might be the only one who’s ads take longer load than the actual content. It’s frustrating to watch so many ads and the same one over and over. Just so people who create the ad content, I hate your product even more when I see an ad for it. So you are wasting your time.
interacting with the commercial is so confusing. I have no idea what they are expecting you to do to interact other than waste time and get confused.
I love history and all the History channel has to offer. However, the app itself is the worst streaming app and it’s not close. Sometimes the dialogue does not match the people’s mouths moving on the screen. The insane number of ads in a single episode (I can understand it to an extent). Sometimes I select the interactive ad experience, interact with it, and then it still ends up cutting to the 7 or 8 ads afterward. Pretty often I have to completely sign out of the app and turn my phone off because it tells me the episodes aren’t included in my tv subscription (they are included in my tv subscription), and once I sign back in, I have access to the episodes. Lastly, almost every time I pause an episode and go back to watch later, when I resume, I’m somehow 10 minutes earlier than where I left off. Love the content in the app, hate the streaming and performance of the app itself.
First off the fireTV app never works. Has a bug that says it’s not connected to WiFi when it is but every troubleshooting step doesn’t work so we try to screen mirror since the fire tv app doesn’t work and the iPhone app says turn off screen recording to keep playing. Terrible. Get it together. History has great shows but can’t even watch them.
Mind blowing! Since the beginning of this series I was hooked. I was so intrigued and anxiously await each episode. I am so impressed by all the people involved in their knowledge and experience in such diverse fields.
Man you get like 7 commercials every ten minutes. Great programming just too many ads!
I love kicking back and expanding my mind with The History channel. There is such diversity I feel my minding expanding and relaxing at the same time. I just wish you would create a pay option to ditch the commercials - I would pay!!!
I like the ability to watch this great programming but the many commercials and same ones repeated over and over is making it much less enjoyable. Is there a way to have less commercials or none?
