Love the TYT, hate the app

I love everything about what TYT stands for and what they do. I am so grateful to have them as my news source. But why is the app so terrible? Why does it constantly log me out? And not remember my password when it makes me log in every time? And if the show is live at 3pm PST, why does it take until 8PST to hear the podcast on my Apple podcast app or the replay on the tyt app? I can’t watch it live at 3pm. I would love to listen to it around 5 when I listen to my other news. Instead, I am constantly behind one day on TYT news. If I wasn’t a member then I would I understand, but as a member for 4 years, I want to be able to hear the news on the day, not the next day. I have resigned to listening to the free 1 hour version on Apple podcasts. It is easy to access and is up way before the replay is available. My monthly payment has just become a donation to TYT as I don’t use anything on the app

Almost Great, but Mostly Useless for Members

If you plan on using this app to always watch the main shows live, or go through their video archives — then you will love it. However, if you are a member and mainly watch the day’s main two hour shows, then it will be utterly useless and aggravating — unless you really enjoy watching yesterday’s news. The main shows are rarely ever updated anything under 4-5 hours after they ended, and can frequently take over a dozen Should you live on the East Coast, then that will most likely be too late for you, and thus you will still use the website regularly and probably delete this app for space. For some odd reason, the website gets updated in a timely fashion, just never this app. Also, you cannot rewind live shows like you can on the members’ only live stream. As such, if you do have the luxury of watching it live — unlike me, on most days — then the website remains the better option and does not take-up space. Once/If TYT rectifies this, I will change my score accordingly.

Upgrade Options

Hey guys love the app I currently have a TYT Insider subscription. I love knowing that I play a small part in supporting a free and independent progressive news network that fights for the people. My only suggestion would be to provide a quick and easy way to upgrade myself to an Activist or Producer subscription through the app. Also add in the TYT Store to the app I’d love to purchase merch through Face ID on my phone. Possibly add a membership option that you pay an extra one time fee of $10 for a T-shirt upon membership subscription. (I bought a shirt when I signed up to proudly display my support.) I Would really love to upgrade to an activist membership for $10/month asap please let me know how that would be possible! Thanks!

Awesome archive, now more timely updates

Tons of great shows, you can’t watch them all but all I’ve seen are really good. Before took a while to upload but seems like now you can watch live or about an hour after the shows end. The daily news shows are really good. Been watching for about a year and a half, I never get taken aback when talking about politics in real life. Tyt is progressive, but unlike the right wing and cable news, tyt deep dives into facts, history and context, then provides opinion and analysis. I never get blind sided by facts, tyt digs deep. I honestly think it’s the best news show available. Which isn’t saying much for cable news with their huge budgets. Check it out, I highly recommend.

Love it, but there are bugs/shortcomings.

Love that I can download things for watching later. The app is convenient in that way. The app doesn’t allow itself to be paused in the background longer than about 30 seconds which is annoying because I used to be able to pause it in the background for more than a half hour. Now it closes and I have to go back down to where I was because I don’t download EVERYTHING I watch on the network.The app also doesn’t have any like “recently/last watched feature which would be convenient since I will miss episodes and have to scroll down a bit to get to where I’d like to watch.The downloads don’t save your place like the episodes you watch straight from their posting under the show it is. OBVIOUSLY annoying.Sometimes a post of a show will be too short or hours long past what it was intended and they never fix it. Happens once every couple months but then it won’t allow me to download a post of 6 hours of a show even though the show was only 2-3 hours long. Never gets fixed. It’s convenient because I can have it in my pocket, but those seem like simple enough fixes to take care of over time. I’m a paying member so some of this stuff seems like “the least you could to is check your work” since I’m paying to consume it.

Starting a movement

I have a special place in my heart for TYT. I was never into politics before watching them and once I found them I watched them every day. Most TV news outlets are biased in some form or other but will swear they are objective. I actually really appreciate that TYT admits their progressive biased and that they truly believe that progressive values are the best solution for everyone. They got me excited about news and world events like I never thought I could be because they actually are passionate and put heart into what they do. Would always recommend them as the best progressive news source.My only criticism: after watching since 2016 I’ve noticed they’ll make fun of Christianity or belittle it every so often. It already feels a little isolating to be a Christian progressive, but I really do think you can have strong progressive values while subscribing to any religion. I don’t think you need to be an atheist to be a progressive. With that in mind I just wish TYT was at least a little more religiously neutral/welcoming so they don’t alienate certain viewers that are strong progressives of different faiths. Other than that, my favorite shows to watch are the main TYT show and the damage report, and my favorite hosts are John, Emma and Cenk because I like their cool snarky personalities and Cenk’s relative objectiveness when looking at the other side.

Lots of potential but lots of crashing...

I love TYT and have been a member for about 6 or 7 years. I understand that the app is a work in progress but...my live stream has been crashing for MONTHS. I'm not sure if they just haven't received enough support requests regarding this issue or are just understaffed due to Covid-19 but please know this is a huge issue. I can never watch the post game live because you need to be a member in order to watch live and the live stream always, always, always crashes. I also really wish we could interact with you through the app, even after the live stream is over just the ability to post comments would be great. There's a loooooot of room for improvement. Again, I know you guys are working on it but hopefully it becomes a priority since it's a great tool and perk for members. Thanks for all you do but also fix it? Love u guys! Ya'll rock ma bananas.

A few bug fixes and improvements would make this a 5-star app

I like the app. It’s got a great design, looks sleek, and it’s very organized. The way you have the clips of the shows, and the full episodes available to stream makes it easy to find specific segments, however you’ve got to implement a download option. Living in NYC, and commuting by subway underground where signal comes and goes, it’s frustrating to try to watch when the video constantly starts and stops because we’re relying on signal to stream. Also, if you’re in the middle of watching, and you close the app you’ll lose your place when you go back to finish watching. Lastly, the rewind 15 second button actually skips the video playback forward, and it’s very difficult to scrub forward and backward to a specific point in the video. I love TYT and I’d want to be able to use the app more.

Great content 👍, broken app 👎

I love the TYT content and have been a member for years. I pretty much only watch the main show and the app has been decent for watching the show but this latest update makes it difficult to use. The video position tracking no longer works so if I’m watching a video and at 11 minutes 23 seconds need to minimize the app to reply to an email then when I return the video starts over again!? Even if I pause the video first when I return it again starts over again. It used to remember the last position of every video and return me to where I left off. Second, will someone please fix the sign-in screen to allow us to use Apples built in password access to things like keychain stored credentials or LastPass or any password manager? I shouldn’t have to go look up my login info and manually type it in when I need to login again after every single app update. Speaking of which it’d be great to not need to login again after every app update. If you can’t save the credentials between updates then the ability to use saved passwords is even more important. It’s irritating to need to look up and manually enter my account credentials after every TYT app update.

So awesome, so close

Edit: originally a 4 Star, just dropped it to a 3, it was great when you have the full hour one and hour 2 episodes. Now everything is broken up into multiple clips and some still have the 2 hours intact but most I can see do not. I did not get the app for the edited broken up clips. I got it to watch the entire show in a cleaner more streamlined way... I guess back to the website I go... when the FULL LENTH shows are available I’ll happily bring the rating back up As a TYT member it’s awesome to have most of their content on one easy platform. The app is clean, easy to navigate, and I LOVE that they put hour one and hour two together, I used to watch from the website and having to navigate through several pages to watch hour 1, hour 2, and then the post game was annoying. The only reason this isn’t 5 Star is I think it could still use improvement. - where is TYT investigates/TYT politics content? - I would love for there to be a section for the polls and petitions TYT starts for the viewers- no comment section for your viewers to engage? I know many comment sections can be a cesspool so I get it. But it would still be nice. Other than that, really enjoying the app. It’s.... TOO STRONG
