I need to start this by saying the content on Peacock is AMAZING!!!! I will not stop putting poor reviews on this app though. Watch it on your tv or anything other than a phone. I am literally watching shows and having them stop randomly and the next episode starts 5-10 minutes of an episode starting. I have shows I have watched before that I listen to while at work and can’t even begin to describe the pure anger and hatred I have towards this app when it changes to another episode without any prompting whatsoever. Please just fix this app. I don’t understand how not a single other streaming service I have has this problem except Peacock which, unfortunately for me, is the one I want to watch the most. DAILY it is cutting the the next episode of a show I’m watching within 15 minutes of it even starting. I really just need you guys to hear this so you can (hopefully) fix it. If I were ever to stop subscribing to peacock it would be purely based on the poor performance of the app and nothing else because the content on here is everything I and my family want. Like I’ve said in my past reviews of this app, FIX THE APP!!!!!

This app is one of the worst apps in the modern era of streaming apps. The menu and UI is cumbersome and flimsy and it’s not user-friendly or intuitive in anyway. why is continue watching the sixth menu down from the top? How come when I add a show to my stuff to circumvent that it doesn’t show up. Why am I forced to watch commercials if I rewind too far and then have to rewatch the commercial I just watched? and the biggest issue and reason why I am writing this is the rewind and fast-forward monstrosity that is this app. Sometimes you can fast-forward or rewind 10 seconds sometimes you can squirrel faster sometimes you have a slow faster and fastest menu and then sometimes you don’t have any menu at all to do it. You just have the restart button with the other menus, and when you press the button to try to fast-forward rewind it clicks restart. I might do this 4-5 times watching an episode of something. And then there’s no rewind fast-forward menu after that so I can’t even get back to the point that I restarted from. And then you try to use Siri to fast-forward or rewind and then you hit with a commercial and if you don’t hit the right spot, you have to try it again and you hit another commercial. and then when you’re there, you can’t even fast-forward everyone to find the spot because you have to watch the commercial. Seriously how can I pay to give this a zero star review? I’ll pay more than I pay for the subscription.

UPDATE: As of 2025, I do not have any issues with this app. I have found it to be reliable and while I do have the ad version, the ad breaks come naturally in where they would be on cable tv and are still shorter. Being able to edit your “Continue Watching” section has been a godsend since the wife has a hard time completing shows. I stream a lot of the live sports and hardly have any issues. I still think the UI can be confusing. Updated from 2 to 4 stars.2021: While the Peacock app has a solid selection of film and tv to choose from, being able to stream it is a whole other issue. First, in order to stream via chromecast, you must allow Peacock to access your local network in settings. Once you select this option, the chromecast symbol will show up in your app. However, once it starts streaming, it doesn’t support it very long. While watching “Jaws” today, it stopped at every ad break and I had to disconnect, connect, and then start streaming again. It was a very disruptive process and frustrating enough for me to stop and write this review.All the other reviews you’re reading also apply. This just happens to be one of the biggest issues bothering me currently.

It has good movies peacock doesn’t have anything to buy everything is free and you also can watch movies and you also can do a plan in or if you can also do a plan and I think it’s really good because they have good movies on there and some of the movies that you find that probably like to buy one buy, and they have new movie like they have woman woman in the yard coming soon and they had a movie and they have have a vampire movie that pose the band in the movie and wasn’t the movie and I just like that because you don’t have to pay for anything and everything is free. You can just sit back with your popcorn and your drinks and just to relax especially officially me and my mom we love peacock and peacock is the best thing you’ve ever had. they don’t do none of that stuff and I’ll tell you now maybe go in there and get peacock because they do not play you better go and get peacock. Everybody needs a peacock right now baby. If you ain’t got peacock, I don’t know what to call you, but you must be out like I mean you’re so I’ma say y’all better go peacock at the movies bye yall
