App Profile: Watch TBS

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.

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.

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.
