Love the shows but tired of the same commercials
One of my favorite shows is Chrisley Knows Best. It makes me laugh so much and with times like we’re in now, we can all use great laughter!! What is annoying is soooo many commercials and its usually the same annoying commercials all the time. But I guess you need the commercials for your revenue and I love the shows so I’ll put up with them. But please stop with the Sentra/drop the taco commercials so much! Please! :)

Terrible app, good shows
Edit: I am struggling with the app even more than before. This is a terrible app and needs to be fixed. It is constantly buffering, won’t let me watch a full show without me having to reboot everything (app, phone, Chromecast, internet...) just to watch an entire show from start to finish. I took a star away because of the constant frustration that just keeps getting worse. Don’t download unless you enjoy being frustrated. This is not a good app. It freezes regularly in the middle of a show and I have to stop casting and then recast it and find my place in the episode of the show I’m watching. In order to get back to where I was, I have to sit through more commercials. I have to restart the app often and I’ve had to reboot my phone a few times just to make it work. There is no other connectivity issue with any other apps and devices I use when USA is acting up. I have found that the NBC apps are all pretty much the same way. They’re pretty terrible, although so far, USA doesn’t seem to be as bad as the NBC app. So yeah, unless you are really into a show on USA (like me) then it’s not really worth it.

NBC Universal lies to customers!!!
So wasn’t able to be home to watch a show I like to watch that is on same time every week without fail but downloaded this stupid USA Network app to watch and the live stream isn’t live at all not one but the show I wanted to watch started at 6pm and is 3 hours long and then went to watch on the app and the show was going live on my cable box ( had my fiancé look to see if it was on live on the cable box and it was ) but the USA Network app said it didn’t start till the show ends on cable….. how is that live tv!?!?!? It’s not one bit so I will be contacting the company of the show I watch to let them know why I won’t be watching one of their shows anymore because I don’t want anything to do with NBC Universal at all. Thankfully Fox network has another night that I will now watch instead of both. And it may seem a little weird that I say I will let the company know I’m one that is on a council for the product which I have ways to contact so hopefully NBC Universal looses the contract and the go to a much more reliable source than NBC UNIVERSAL

Buggy chrome cast support
I only use this app with casting to my TV. The support is very buggy and makes the viewing experience challenging. Here are some of the behaviors: 1. When going back to the home screen, the ringer/phone volume overrides the app’s set volume which sets the volume on the TV. If my phone is set to max volume, it will proceed to set my TV to the max volume as well. Opening and closing the app should not change the cast devices volume. 2. Sometimes the app cannot play the video when casted. This can happen if you repeatedly connect/disconnect to the cast device. I need to kill the app and then re connect everything again. 3. It’s really difficult to skip to a part of a show due to the way the commercials work. One time the app refused to set me to the middle of the show where I left off and I had to watch commercials like 3 times in a row.

NBC Ruined these apps
Ever since the update moving other networks under the NBC umbrella, the apps have been rendered useless. First Bravo, now USA. Even the NBC app itself. I love the idea of everything in one place-that’s pretty awesome. But what’s the point when none of them can be unlocked? Can try to link and unlink tv cable provider and delete and reinstall all three apps all I want, apps still don’t work (I either get a generic error or an error stating I don’t have the channel in my cable package). The only thing that worked was when someone from the help desk loaded my nbc profile that I had to create with credits when I inquired about the issues with the Bravo app. Was hoping by the time I used up the credits, the error would be fixed. Unfortunately, that was wishful thinking. Please fix, otherwise, these shows/networks are completely unwatchable for myself and for many others.

Super glitchy and unreliable
Recently I’ve been experiencing issues with the app not recognizing my cable provider. I’m able to work through that by in linking and reconnecting my provider credentials. When watching the live stream in portrait orientation, the picture shows full width. When I turn it to landscape mode, the picture is cut off on the sides, rather than the video showing with the bars at top and bottom, so I lose the outer edges. My main issue is with playback. I have had the live feed freeze, video freeze with audio continuing, and the video no longer playing over hdmi when watching using my iPad connected to tv. I know it’s the app because other apps work using the exact same setup. I even updated the app and tried again with no luck. Audio works fine when using the dock connector, video does not.

Thanks Peacock, for taking the better shows!!
Can’t watch MONK at all, doesn’t show up on the search!! And for PSYCH, it’s just a few TRAILERS!! Thanks for NOTHING USA AND PEACOCK!! What a shame, those are two of the shows that helped make the USA network what it was and is. Not anymore, let’s just abandon it to PEACOCK, which isn’t for me, not worth paying for, since I don’t watch ABC for anything. Yes, I watch it’s sister stations for a few things, like most of us, but it’s never been my go to station. I get it, restructuring is the thing, and if DISNEY wants to have people pay for its service, some will, but some of us won’t, not for a few shows, and when money is going for more important bills, PEACOCK/DISNEY is one of those networks/companies that my money can’t be allotted to. No offense guys, but a girl needs to pay rent to keep a roof over her families heads over tv.

Cropped full screen on iPad Pro
I really want to watch professional wrestling on my iPad. However, the USA app and the USA website on Safari have serious problems. The app forces me to watch the live network zoomed in, so I miss nearly half of the image. Sometimes I enjoy zooming in, when it’s an option, but not when it’s required. My previous fix to this problem was to load the USA website on Safari, but now that doesn’t even work at all. I’m a beta user for iPad OS 13, so hopefully that’s my main problem. Either way, I really enjoy WWE, and I enjoy my iPad for media consumption, so hopefully I can watch WWE on USA on my iPad correctly soon. Thankfully the FOX app is well put together, so I can at least enjoy Friday Night Smackdown in its proper aspect ratio.

Awful awful awful!!! Glitchiest app ever!
How on earth in this day and age can this level of constant buffering and pixelating issues happen!?! Whether watching on my iPhone or Roku, the same problem persists. And worst of all, USA tries to blame my internet provider! Sorry USA, your app is the ONLY streaming app I have this problem with. The problem is on YOUR end, YOU need to fix your crappy, buggy app! Trying to watch LIVE programming is the worst. Everything plays find for 5-10 minutes, then the picture pixelates and goes black; when the program comes back on it jumps back 15-20 seconds and replays that portion of the show/commercials. Absolutely beyond ridiculous and unacceptable. But when it’s the only way to watch certain shows, what do you do?

Stops casting after every commercial, previously Awesome
Before a month or so ago this app was amazing. Recently I’ve been having trouble with captions not syncing with the words. Also every commercial break causes me to lose my “casting” connection and have to 1) restart the show, then 2) watch the first commercials 3) recast which which starts me at the beginning, only to then 4) approximately scrub to where I was, wait through commercials again, and start at that time. If I didn’t love suits and queen of the south I wouldn’t go through the trouble. I’ve started to resent my favorite shows just because this is so annoying. Before it worked perfectly and would have been a 5/5 star

USA HUGE FAN
Honestly USA is one of the best cable programs. There are days that you all upset me when you cancel a program like Covert Affairs or when it is time to close a chapter like Suits & open up a new beginning like Pearson !!! I wish there was too bad that Suits is closing down its curtains !!! Great to hear about Season 5 on Queen of the South hopefully you all can give us another 5 years or more !!! other show I miss are satisfaction with Stephanie Szostak & rush with actor Tom Ellis the list can go on of shows that I miss 😢

App doesn’t always play right on TV
I like the app on my phone, but trying to play the app on my TV is a different story. I have an iPhone and I never have any issues trying to watch the app on my phone. Whenever I use my fire stick so I can watch the show on TV, the app will just sit loading. It might also say “no authority” even though I have an Xfinity account, which again will work perfectly fine on my phone. I’m not sure why this happens but it is extremely annoying. Other than that since I can still watch the shows on the app on my phone, I still rated 3 stars.

I LOVE THE USA APP
They give you free credits to watch stuff and it was so fun and exciting. I could watch all the new chucky episodes that made me get chills from watching it. I LOVE THIS SERIES. Can’t wait for the next episodes in season 2 because there’s a big cliffhanger with Andy the dolls. I Also want to see more about the other main characters. Thank you USA app for letting me watch his series. I’m glad I found it.

A hot mess
The UI of the app is actually the least-frustrating part. In fact, one might even say it’s reasonably well-designed. The performance, however, is garbage. The pop-out player constantly closes, forcing you to go back to the app—which has usually outright rebooted itself—to reopen the show you were trying to watch. I’ve had to re-link my provider multiple times as well, but I’m hoping that having an actual account in the app will stop that from happening again.

Buggy app with intrusive Pop up’s, poor performance
1. Too slow, especially the smart TV versions, and apps included in FireTV. Will crash while loading multiple times before success. 2. Asks for TV subscription (DirecTV) validation almost every time. Gets annoying. 3. There’s an intrusive popup that says “Finished watching? Let’s find your next favorite” even before I select my first program. 4. I want to use the app with an hdmi connection to my computer monitor. It gives me a failed playback message forcing me to just watch on my iPhone screen. Please take this restriction off in future updates.

It doesn’t function properly
I’m bummed that there are so many great shows on this app that I want to watch but I can’t. I’ve tried safari, iPad, chrome, android/Apple phone, Roku, Apple TV and several different locations with WiFi but this app either doesn’t load the show or buffers forever, or opens then crashes, or gives the “sorry try again later” or stops halfway through watching, buffers, crashes.. so many bugs it’s not even worth the shows on it. Hopefully there is a huge update soon considering how many people are giving this same feed back, that and the millions of other apps who seem to have it figured out.

It’s gone WAY downhill
I used to have no issues with this app, but I ended up deleting it due to having no need for it for a while. When I re-downloaded it today, it is AWFUL. It won’t let me log into my TV provider so as to watch anything. Regardless of how many times I press ‘link to television provider’ or whatever it says, NOTHING happens. The only way it responds is if I click on the option to make some account with NBC Universal that allows to watch THREE WHOLE EPISODES (*gasp*!) which isn’t happening. Why would I do that when I could access everything if this stupid app would just work correctly?

Cannot handle EPL’s switch to the network
NBC’s heavily-advertised move of their Premier League matches from Peacock to USA Network has been awful. The app (as does the NBC app) regularly crashes or hangs up…as it’s doing as I write this review during the Everton-Brighton match…leading to inevitable and repeated Apple TV reboots. I’ve seen as many “An Error Occurred. Something has gone wrong. Please try restarting your app and trying the live stream again” messages as I’ve seen goals this weekend. Two match days in and it’s clear NBC/USA Network weren’t prepared to handle the demand for the content they continue to monopolize in the U.S. Pleas fix asap.

Quite Simply Garbage
This app is buggy and near useless. Constantly needs the device to be reset before it will work lay again. Confusing and illogical sidebar menu. It includes multiple feeds, but none ever work properly or for more than a few minutes. Maybe work on getting on facet right before trying to cram in an all inclusive format? I only use this to watch Premier League matches, that were formerly on NBCSN…that app was great. Way to drop the ball NBC….USA app is total trash and needs a complete restart in every aspect. Blow it up and start over. There’s really no fixing something with a build this poor.

Flatliner
The USA Network app has a life expectancy of about 4 weeks on Apple TV before it only displays a single, flat, white line in the middle of a black screen, when you bring it up. It has to be deleted and reinstalled at that point, but at least it doesn’t lose your progress in shows that you are watching, when you restart it. This has happened to me so many times I expect it. It’s a frustrating experience, and I hope they hire some software writers who can fix this recurring issue.

Really buggy. You can’t have it open while scrolling or texting back for too long cause it will close the app. Also it drains battery like crazy fast making it very annoying. You must keep it on the charger. But at the same time your phone gets super hot while charging. Also god forbid you lose a tiny bit of signal then it’ll take 30 minutes just to load the front page

Deleted episodes and too many ads!!!
Just started watching Queen of the South. I finally finished Seasons 1 thru 3. I go to catch up on Season 4 and was highly disappointed to see that the first 4 episodes have already expired and the 5th was set to expire. This season just pretty much started so I don’t understand why these episodes would be deleted so quickly. Is money that much of a priority to you? I refuse to pay to watch those episodes. And please stop the ads!!!! I have to give Netflix all the credit for having no ads whatsoever!!! I pay enough per month on the cable bill.

Too many ads
This app is good, but I only get limited tokens to watch per episode of anything. I thought the whole purpose of the app is to watch TV like normal. I wish I had known that and got the channel on my TV instead because I would still be buying for the content. I only got the app for the Chucky series,but still had problems watching the show. So many ads I feel I can’t enjoy the shows smoothly.

Good for the first half, then got buggy
I wanted to watch season 3 episode 1 of the sinner. The only good things was not needing an account to watch on here. It was fine for about 20 minutes until it started bugging like CRAZY. It was so bad I got completely confused in what I was watching & almost decided to stop watching entirely. I tried to rewind it but it wouldn’t let me. I kept watching to see if the quality would get better but it only got worse. Please fix the bugs this app could be so good if you’d just FIX THE BUGS!!!

Worst network app
This app is absolutely horrible at times. I have really good cellular service with AT&T and it’s alwasy telling me I don’t have service when I can use any other app on my phone with no issue. Anytime you pause the show and come back to it later, it either starts the show over or starts you way behind where you actually were in the show. I stream from a lot of different network apps and this is the most difficult and frustrating one I’ve used.

The content of USA is great. Let’s get that out of the way first. My issue is with the app itself. It looks TERRIBLE on my iPhone 11. I’m unable to pinch zoom to fill the screen. It stays forever a small box. My other issue is where the app doesn’t play the content I’ve been consuming after exiting the app and then coming back in.

Unreliable/unstable on AppleTV
I don’t why, as I have never had a streaming app do this, but this app will do weird stuff. Sometimes it will simply stop playing video completely even though it will start playing fine if I close then restart it. Other times it will rewind live video—sometimes once, sometimes multiple times in the same spots. Network connection and speed are always fine and the device is always updated...simply an app issue

Freezes...not enjoyable
I try to get through one episode of a show and find I’m super frustrated. I’d almost rather not see any than get glimpses. The show will play with tons of ads. As show is streaming, it freezes, and picks up a few seconds later. You lose those seconds not knowing what happened. I’ve actually had to look up (read) about what happened. Sometimes it just won’t play video at all and other times it skips back to previous footage. Not an enjoyable experience.

Have never seen a streaming app with more issues
Everything is broken. Sound doesn’t work for Premier League games. Picture in Picture works 20% of the time on your first attempt, then once you go back into app viewing, you have to restart the stream to get PiP to work again. Rotating your screen will generally pause and crash the stream. Constantly have to log back into your account to stream. Sometimes app bugs out for multiple minutes and does not allow access to content, until it realizes you actually do have the permissions/access, completely at random. This app is so poorly built I’m convinced it was developed by a team of elementary school kids in an intro to the computer lab class.
