1. Despite having premium subscription, I'm subjected to unskippable ads on match highlights. To watch a 15 mins highlights, I had to watch 4 sets of 3 unskippable ads. 2. The UI is clunky, the player is always lagging. 3. Live match experience is ruined by having to watch the ads again when I get a call or there is a network issue. At this rate I'm not sure what is the point of premium subscription if I'm going to be subjected to ads all the time
1. OTT app should have plenty of content for user to watch but this aap have a very limited content. Feels like except of Shark Tank there is nothing watchable. 2. Getting ads even when you have taken premium subscription. What the point of taking subscription if have to watch ads. 3. User interface is bad. There are no categories to distinguish the contents every thing is clutter at one place you can not segregate and watch specific content. 4. No option of live TV in the app even for premium
Better not to subscribe ever. i have a premium subscription for one year and i understand there are ads in live game, but in recorded shows like shark tanks, kbc, tkss. What is the point of having a premium subscription if there are lot of ads in recorded shows. I'm never gonna buy it ever again. plus app it self is too buggy to be premium.
Having paid for a yearly subscription and seeing ads between programs makes absolutely no sense.
Absolute Garbage TV app. Its really frustrating, when you try to watch a show on your tv but this app won't let you. I have purchased the premium version but cannot watch anything because it crashes all the time. Pathetic. Posted this review two years ago. No improvement whatsoever. On top of that, too many ads.
Touch anything and you are absolutely spammed with ads, I downloaded this especially to review the absolutely mediocre app from my tv. Watching anything with family, I just seek 1 second and bam!! 50 ads back to back and the same ones too. So annoying app, i understand it requires a subscription but comeon LOL this is too much!! Every second every inch is spammed with ads. Extremely mediocre and useless app. Uninstalled. Imagine spamming ads in between performances lol. Braindead team
Add more features like brightness change, play/pause with Bluetooth earphones, intro skip, etc. Basically get all the good stuff from the Prime and Netflix video players. Updated review: Changed 3-star rating to 4-star rating as brightness issue solved instantaneously! Would definitely give 5 stars once the Bluetooth earphones play/pause and intro-skip issues are resolved as well. Newer update to 2 stars from 4 stars: Downloads don't show up in the "My Downloads" section. Please update ASAP!
SonyLiv app on the TV used to consume a lot of data unlike other apps, there was no option for changing the video quality. I had emailed this matter during march 2021 and since 3~4days I wasnt able to load the app. Hence I updated it. And voila, now there is an option to adjust the data quality. Thank you very much for the same. However I have a request to make. Kindly change the director or whoever is currntly in charge of crime patrol satark. Now the quality is more like Dial100 than Satark.
I'm trying to cast Euros to my TV but the stream starts in hindi. When I change the language to English, the commentary is out of sync. I refreshed multiple times. Same result. There were minor bugs in the app till now and I didn't mind but this is intolerable. Edit: Two days on Sony LIV has actually managed to get this issue solved. Kudos to the team.
