Thank you so much for all of you and the real news you bring to America. About five years ago I literally stopped watching all the news. I mean local, national and world. All of it was so very upsetting. Could there be a kind word anywhere to be said about anything? Except all we hear about is more and more crime, violence and unrest. Neighbors angry at their neighbors families very angry at each other. Have we all forgotten to love our neighbors as ourselves? Wouldn’t it be a nicer world if we did that? Helping one another. When I was young older people would say “If you don’t have anything nice to say about someone, don’t say anything at all.” Wouldn’t that still make sense for todays world? Maybe some of us could try doing that. May each of you have a safe pre-Christmas Season and a very happy holiday Also, good health in the New Year too. Sincerely, Connie Northern Illinois
I’ve been watching The First’s live stream on Apple TV through Pluto, but wanted to see some of their other shows on demand, so I downloaded the app. The app opens to the live broadcast, and these is a note at the bottom of the screen to press the menu button to return to the home section. However, when I press either the menu or home buttons, the app closes. When I press the menu button, the screen flashes before closing the app, which appears to be a crash. I tried reloading the app and cycling the power on my Apple TV, but nothing changed. So, I’m no better off with the app than I was watching on Pluto. I still gave the app three stars because the mobile version works perfectly on my phone. I like that the audio still plays while the phone is locked.
Overall the app is great. Have it installed on both my iPhone and Roku. Just one complaint... Auto play needs adjusted. Right now it plays the hours of a multi hour show backwards if on autoplay. Ex. If you finish watching hour 2 of Buck Sexton, Auto Play will then start hour 1 NOT hour 3. It doesn't make sense. You need to either 1) change the programming for order shows are played or 2) change the order shows are uploaded. Thanks 📺
Finally, something that I can watch to get the news without the constant barrage of insults from the lamestream media. If you’re sick of the major networks telling you everything that’s wrong with America and forever wallowing in the political correctness abyss, try this app. (It’s free so what do you have to lose?)
O’Reilly is why I downloaded this app. The other shows are very good too. Annoying when they play the same commercial 7, 8, 9, 10 times or more, over and over again, back to back. Yes, this happens. Also annoying is that they advertise the app so that you can watch them on their app. If you don’t have the app, you can’t see that ad!
Fix your app, I’m locked out of content and I’m a subscriber. I recently had to replace my phone and now I can’t watch certain programs because there’s some issue between your app and apples subscription finding common ground. I don’t enjoy leaving a low rating because I enjoy the content and hearing the hosts perspectives (especially Jesse, not gonna lie, he cracks me up). Please fix soon so I can give your app the rating it deserves.
This app has a long way to go. I open it and it says “click here to watch live”. If it were live programming I couldn’t fast forward. Then the only way to navigate from “Live” to the list of programs is to double click the home button, swipe the app from my screen, then reopen the app. It crashes. It crashes when I try to open some programs, over and over. Another program may play. Go back to the original one, it crashes again. Turn the volume up, it crashes. Same if I turn it down. Please get it right!
I started watching because I am a fan of Bill O’Reilly and like him and everyone else I have watched so far. The issue I have is that often when a break comes, rather than getting whatever they put in for fill (opinion, good news, promos) gets bumped off and all these ads for shows on ABC come on. I have to close it all down and start over - aggravating!!
Downloaded the app strictly for Bill O’Reilly. The first 2 times I attempted to watch segments of his No Spin News, the minute you click on it the app closes and you have to start all over again. There is no way to go back to home page and click on whichever segment you want to view, no you have to close the app and start all over again. I should just renew my Bill O’Reilly’s membership it works so much better. Forget this app.
The hosts on First TV are great and lay out their points in an understandable way with facts to back them up. However, whenever I try watching past episodes, the app almost always crashes a couple times before I get the video started, especially if I’m trying to find where I left off last time. Love the content, but the constant app crashes are infuriating!
Bill, You’re exceptionally the best person to trust in the news. Thanks for your daily emails that I enjoy and pass along to my friends. May God bless you and your family.
Can’t navigate back to home screen from watching live or vids ..
I’ll continue to watch ..as this is a new platform ..and will assume they will fix this major bug ..as I’m looking forward to the programming lineup ..but for now ..after watching a vid ..you need to close/reboot the app in order to get back to the ‘home’ screen ..
You cannot smoothly scroll down through the different shows because it snags and jumps. Then the mouth lags behind the speech. I just tried to watch Bill O. and the segments would not play. It was just a black screen. Sometimes Jesse K. is nothing more than a bunch of overlapping squares. I don't have any problems like this with other apps. I do enjoy the app when it works. I hope someone can fix it. Thank you.
Yes, it is free and amazing! I am very happy with the quality and content that this app gives. I watch it on my iPhone and Roku TV, both work very well! I’m happy to see Bill O’Reilly is back because his insight is great! A must watch and FREEE!
Does anyone not realize the same commercial plays over and over during one break? Yesterday, during O’Reilly, the one for Mississippi ran at least 5 times in a row. Tonight, DeVry University played over and over, at least 5 times in a row. No faster way to lose an audience. So aggravating!
When I get a notification about a news story then go to the app there is no obvious way to tell where to find the story. It would be better to include more info in notifications to allow the user to read the story
This is really a frustrating experience on Apple TV. User is only able to watch a live feed and doesn’t have access to home menu and the shows that have previously aired. So, unless you can watch live, skip this app and watch on your iPhone where all the features are available.
Jesse’s droll tongue in cheek observations are hysterical! He’s notorious for trolling trolls, lank feminists and those who feel a bit too self-important! A fresh voice of humor much needed then a gut punch of realism. Check him out. And he’s insanely tall!
I decided to pay so I could get the live and simulcast. And to support the content on the app. But the entire app is junk! I watch as much commercials as I do whatever show I watch. It crashes a lot. They don’t update the shows regularly. You cannot scroll the homepage without glitching or just plain crashing and closing. And if I paid to subscribe why should I watch adds? IHEART is free and I can skip the adds. I think it’s more about revenue than content for THE FIRST. This is the only app I have ever paid money and it’s the worst app I have..
Tried channel but the continual horrible ads of Home Title insurance every few minutes was a killer for me. Could not take it....an insult to all his viewers. Maybe they should have the pillow guy on too. He kills me also for cable news....a sure channel Changer point. My point is O'Reilly = good. Channel and continuous ads = so bad, had to delete channel.
Love the hosts, but can’t watch Picture in Picture. I multitask, especially during commercials. It crashes every time. It’s been over a year since an update so maybe they don’t care about the app for iOS.
I love the Dana Show @ 11:00 but every time she goes to her first commercial and comes back, the sound is all broken up! Every day this happens. What’s up with this? No point of watching if you don’t know what she is saying!
Every time a commercial comes on, the app freezes and I have to close it and open it again. This has been going on for a while and it’s time they fix it.
Love Dana & her show, but she’s simply too beautiful to be relegated to listening on the radio or podcast only. Enter, The First! So glad I can now watch her show live AND on demand!!! Thanks guys.
Please fix the iphone and Apple TV apps. I love the content, but the only thing that runs is the live. The on demand content available won’t play. I had to delete the app and use the website in safari.
I think the Democrats are messing with the First App.
You Can’t sign in. I Tried to sign my wife up but it says she already has an account with her email but we can’t log in because it won’t let us change our password that we never made. Does Joe Biden or his Staff run this App.
I use this app with my Firestick TV. I stream every other app with no issues. The First freezes all the time. It’s awful....I have to restart the app several times to make it work. Then it freezes again and again and again!!! PLEASE FIX THIS. NOT WORTH THE HASSLE TO KEEP TRYING TO USE YOUR APP!!! If I could give this app zero stars I would!!
There are 2 separate apps listed in Apple APP store. Why? I download one and the other looks like it downloads at same time. Then I go to play video and it’s playing Picture-in-picture mode? Had to delete but I would love to download again if it’s fixed.
The latest version of ThefirstTV for Apple TV will not allow you to exit the app. The only way I could get out of the app was to cycle power. Next time do some testing. I deleted the App.
Came here because I’m starving for news. I shut everything down, no more Fox (ever), no drudge, no nothing. Just to be assaulted with Spanish commercials on The First. Wake up idiots.
