Commercials/freeze freeze freeze

I decided to watch a episode of love and hip hop holiday and boy was it a painful experience, it was so painful deleted the app, right before I was painfully waiting for the end. First and foremost, the last 10 mins of the episode had so many commercial breaks, the episode would get interrupted, every 1-2 mins after a argument or highlight for a 2-4 min commercial break...it’s like I was at the end of the episode and I couldn’t even reach the end the last 10 mins had more than SIX: 3-5 mins commercial breaks my blood pressure began to boil and boil and not only that at the end of multiple commercials segments the commercial would just freeze and you would have to press play multiple times for it to restart, hoping that it wouldn’t freeze again...it was so painful, my chest started hurting it took me so long to get to the end of the episode, I literally closed the device and deleted the app immediately !!! It’s 2018, a app shouldn’t be this bad from a television company

Needs lots of work!

I have had this app for a while and thought by now they would have improved it. Watching my reality shows on here is painful sometimes. I have actually rewatched shows on my tv after I had already watched here and realized somehow I missed a whole section of the show. There have been times that I will be watching and for no reason the episode will just start over. Plus most of the time (not all but most) if you leave the app then go back in, it jumps back to the beginning of your episode and you have to scroll through to figure out where you left off. The episodes start from new to old but if you are watching episode 3 it automatically goes to episode 2 when you finish instead of going to 4 which makes no sense at all. The commercials are terrible and repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat. I understand we have to watch them in order to get the free app but they could at least be normal commercials that you see on TV. Some of these look like my children produced them. I had to sit through 20 seconds of a child swimming and doing flips in a pool with no words, no promoting, nothing. Umm ok. Then they promote stores and events all in FL lol. I’m in NJ and can’t figure out how to change the settings. We get it, Ace Hardware pays a lot to promote with VH1! I can’t remove closed caption to save my life which drives me crazy. But you get what you pay for I guess lol thank god for on demand with cable!

Waste of time

I pay for my cable service so I don’t understand why after signing in that there’s like 20 commercials for a 40 minute show. If I get a text or a phone call the show starts all over again and I have to sit through the whole show all over again. Total waste. Other apps that I use on a daily like tlc and lifetime don’t give this trouble. Don’t waste your time with this app.*****updateI understand that this app is ad supported however it is not free of charge because I have to sign in to my cable account that I pay for in order to view your shows. It seems like your response to my first review and to many others is bogus. This app isn’t worth the free download. There’s a ridiculous amount of commercials and it doesn’t save the spot. If you receive a phone call or leave out the app for any reason the show will restart and you will be forced to sit there and watch it all over again. No one is looking for a nonsense response just fix the app. It clearly needs the help based on previous reviews.

Too many commercials.

I love this app to watch reality shows however the amount of commercials are RIDICULOUS!! I read a previous review where VH1 responded saying they are ad supported and that’s how they make it possible for their content to be available to use for FREE. Ummm... HELLO!!!! IF I AM PAYING FOR MY CABLE AND I HAVE TO USE MY TV PROVIDER TO SIGN IN. ITS NOT FREE!!!! Not one show on there is “FREE” to watch when We are paying for cable and using that tv provider to sign in. Im PAYING my bill so I’m able watch my shows on my phone, tablet, etc. when I go out or on road trips. There’s no reason why there should be 20 commercials in a 40-60 min show. Once I watch a commercial my show plays 5 mins then boom another commercial! I think all these TV network apps should cut down on the ads or cut them out completely. If we are all paying for cable, we should be allowed to watch our shows without any interruptions.

Love/ Hate Relationship

I personally love VH1 and all of the shows that it airs. I personally don’t always have the time to watch my favorite shows live which is why I downloaded the app. I’ve have the app for well over 6 Months and honestly no matter how many times there’s an update the problems never seem to get fixed. Often times in the middle of watching a show the sound will cut off and video will just play on its own, when I try to rewind I get hit with a bunch of commercials I don’t feel like watching. Speaking of commercials, this app plays too many of them & they all seem to be the same exact commercials that honestly gets so tiring. With this new update, if I were to accidentally lock my phone or interrupt the show in any way the entire thing starts over from the beginning and as I fast forward I have to sit through the same boring commercials. You have to have a lot of patients when dealing with this app but truth be told it’s honestly easier to just watch a show live on tv.

Love hate relationship still going strong

So like I’ve been using this app on and off, I constantly download and delete it due to frustration. While I understand that sometimes ads are a thing, I don’t understand why I’m coming to the app to watch the show after it aired on tv to still watch ads, they are still highly too frequent and long running. I feel like sometimes I watch more ads then shows and they’re too political and repetitive, I’ve gone into each episode and it starts with 4 ads. Them to top it off it runs for like 5 min-8 into the actual show and then there’s like 4-6 more and then sometimes it glitches and then there’s only been like two different scenes and then a clip of the show itself and then more commercials. It’s almost past the line of not worth it and I may delete it not sure yet.

A waste of time

Dealing with this app takes up so much of your time just to watch one tv show or one episode. I can start off watching a show, cast it to my tv then boom the sound is off but you can hear other parts of the show playing or a commercial playing over it. The app will be casting the show and it starts to lag. I’m on the beginning of the show but the sound is on the middle of the show. I click a certain episode then it plays another episode I didn’t select to watch. I have to stop casting, close the app, re open the app, find my episode, cast it to the tv, then for what, for me to have to do the steps all over again?! This is absolutely frustrating. It should not take you 30 mins to an hour to get the app to function just to watch one episode or one show. You’re better off just watching vh1 straight from your cable Provider because this app just isn’t it. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled and I’m have the same issues. Then you would expect the next episodes to continue, nope the current episode that you’re watching will play at least 5 times before the app just stops casting. I’m definitely deleting this app because it’s not worth the hassle.

love the shows, hate the app

first off, i love a lot of vh1’s programming. i have no issues with the actual content; my qualms are with this trashy app. if you close the app for a half second or even pull down notification center (without closing the app) it starts your show over and makes you watch thousands of garbage ads before maybe giving you the chance to fast forward to where you left off. incredibly inconvenient for people with lives that have to check emails, watch the time, etc. even when we’re watching tv. we get it. you want the ad revenue. (and no, the fact that the app is free is not an adequate justification for any of this. your users are paying a lot of money to still subscribe to cable in the age of netflix/hulu. and even if your absurd capitalist explanations “justify” the obscene amount of ads, there’s absolutely no excuse for having such a useless, nonfunctional app when clearly your users are crying out for changes to be made and, again, WE ARE PAYING MONEY TO ACCESS THE CONTENT ON THE APP.) now please give us a functioning app or drop the false pretenses and admit you don’t care about anything but profit

HORRIBLE APP!!!

Let me preface this by saying I hardly ever write reviews but this app is TERRIBLE. Constant issues on both my appletv app and my phone app. Takes FOREVER TO LOAD, if it does at all. It does a RANDOM LOG OUT of my cable account. Doesn’t accurately (by any means) hold where you last left off on a show. Forget trying to go back 10 seconds to catch what you missed or forward to skip “previously on” because it will either FREEZE, go straight to a ton of COMMERCIALS or will SKIP so far ahead you don’t even know what’s happening. Commercials constantly more than any other streaming app. If one of my favorite shows wasn’t on VH1 I would never touch this app again. And judging from tons of reviews over the last several years complaining- it’s clear that they have no intention of fixing this app. I wish I could give it negative stars as it’s miserable trying to watch my favorite show. 😡

Disappointed

Y’all should really think about the people that don’t have a tv provider because honestly I feel like what’s the point of the app If you don’t have a tv provider you won’t be able to watch the shows so really it’s no point of using the app and that’s where I think y’all made a mistake at I love the shows but really not a big fan of the app I feel like the app should be thrown away because of the fact that every one doesn’t have a tv provider when I first got the app I was able to watch all the apps now it’s saying the shows are locked becuase of a tv provider y’all should really up date the app vh1 disappointed I really thought I had a good app maybe y’all should do what the Fox now app did you don’t need a tv provider and it lets you watch the shows 5 days after it airs on tv also how am I going to sign in to my tv provider if the cable that I have isn’t listed on there
