Ratings and Reviews
A bit dream crushed
Me and my cousin callum went to do a live stream on the channel RED MASTER MIND and it was stopped because of copyright claim in the live stream and we were a bit confused to why it was stopped and we tried to make a new live stream but it said “Due to Community Guidelines strikes or copyright issues, you cannot live stream at this time” we were very concerned if we had copyrighted a video on our channel without realising and it was our very first live stream on our channel so we were quite spooked thinking we did something extremely wrong on our channel to cause this creator if you are reading this could you please help us with are live stream and give us a second chance to do one we were very pleased until this moment in the live stream your site is good but me and my cousin were very concerned about this.
New bugs in latest update?
The app is mostly good, however in the last few days (since the newest update) I have experienced a few bugs that have caused me to have to reinstall the app or close and reopen it. The first was strange stutters in video and audio whilst watching anything, not related to internet connection or resolution. I had to delete the app and reinstall it for it to become comfortable watching videos, however even now I still witness a few occasional stutters in playback that I have never seen before during normal playback.
The second bug is around the comments section. Sometimes comments will not post regardless of how many times to press the send button. Even if you delete the draft and open a new one you are still unable to post a comment, and changing video does not fix it. Was only able to fix this after closing and reopening the app. These aren’t massive issues but I feel like there are a lot of these little bugs that come and go over time and can be a bit of an annoyance when trying to watch stuff.
Overall the app has good functionality, and 4K HDR videos can look great on an iPad, but I would like a bit more polish in regard to some of the playback and commenting bugs.
Exceptionally poor UX
I cannot change notification settings for my subscriptions because I’ve disabled notifications on my phone. This is even though I have them enabled on other devices. In other words, I’m being forced to enable push notifications to change my settings. The sharing function uses a bespoke UI instead of the one provided by iOS, so I cannot simply select a person I’ve recently contacted like I can in most other apps. There also isn’t a setting to change to dark mode automatically according to the system settings. Instead, I can only choose a dark mode or a light mode permanently. The offline functionality is patchy. When on a poor connection, it insists on trying to use the internet rather than the downloaded version. It’s also not possible to copy and paste things like titles and descriptions as it is on the website. The shorts UX is not consistent with everything else. I cannot rewind if I miss something. Instead, I’m forced to rewatch the whole video. Everything, absolutely everything, about this app is suboptimal.
