I really haven’t given it much thought before.
Wife watches a show or 2 on there.


I was watching NFL playoff football and the app seems kind of garbage.

Hopefully NFL has way higher viewership and it was just a high traffic issue but that shit was glitchy as hell. Felt like going back in time to the early days of streaming, audio cutting in n out, stream freezing then jumping forward..

My $0.02

I am not impressed with your performance Paramount +

I just wish it was better, like Netflix, where you could scroll to any part of the video with ease. I use Paramount a good amount, and it's just not as good as Netflix or Max. I really hope the live sports are better. Don't think I've ever watched a sport there.


And, I tried playing a few UFC fights from their library. It was really tough to navigate.
 
I’ve barely started using it, but it seems to be really glitchy and fucked up at the beginning of whatever I watch, before eventually correcting itself. I guess as long as it fixes itself quickly, it beats $80 for a PPV. But yeah, not super great.
 
I found the fights on ESPN to be pretty glitcy too, I think it got worse once the writing was on the wall for the UFC to leave

hopefully this is better?
 
It hasn't been glitchy for me at all on a fire stick.

I've only watched a few shows though, never watched anything with super high viewership, so we'll see how the first UFC goes.

I do hate that there's no way to disable auto play though. It makes scrolling for shows super annoying.

I also hate that I pay for the ad-free version and they still show me an ad before every show. Yes, I can skip it but it's still an ad.
 
I've been using it since October just watching programs here and there. It seems okay but I haven't watched any sports or anything live. The test will come when the fights start. I don't have high expectations so maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised. It will be what it will be which be good enough.as long as there aren't significant issues.
 
I'm not sure how true this is but I heard that most of the problems happen when its a live show, which obviously UFC will be, I saw some people saying that when they watched documentaries or replays it was fine, but when they watched something live it was choppy and inconsistent. I guess we'll wait and see how the first UFC goes. Hopefully it will be smooth.
 
My dad got the 50% off military discount, but yeah me and him have watched quite a few things on there and I’d say it’s worth the price. Especially with all the UFC events that are going to be on there now.
 
Not sure if Paramount+ app on Apple TV is the only one that does this. I browse and drill down and add to watchlist and press back and it starts at the top rather than sending me to right before I drilled down. It's irritating.
