  1. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Nightly News. Can’t play previous episodes.

  2. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Scam. Can’t even watch live tv without a tv provider sub. Used to be able to watch it with bunny ears. App is a joke.

  3. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Tonight Show. Maybe Jimmy Fallon can come up with new jokes other than Trump. It is getting old. Maybe be a real comedian & get some original jokes.

  4. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Terrible Commercials. Playing commercials as soon as you turn on the app, especially when the basketball game I want to watch is actively live, is incredibly obnoxious. Fix this or get out

  5. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Live TV. I can't watch live tv!!

  6. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    NBC will not play on network other than Wi-Fi. App is unable to play NBC on a cellular network not Wi-Fi. Does not understand how to determine location/zip code

  7. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Not Available. I am constantly being told on the app that NBC is not available in my area. I have my cable subscription linked to the NBC app. I just do not understand why when I am 2 miles from home I cannot watch anything except NBC Now news. I live in an area that is large enough that I should have coverage. If someone could shed some light on this issue I would appreciate it since the only shows I mainly watch are on NBC and as a mom who spends lots of time waiting for the kids to be done with their practices and meetings I would love to enjoy some me time catching up on my favorite shows while I wait in the car.

  8. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Mal servicio con los contenidos de streaming. No puedo ver contenidos de la plataforma porque me dicen que no están disponibles por mi código de área, lo actualizo y tampoco me deja. No es la primera vez que uso el servicio

  9. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    If I could give it no stars I would.. Lame

  10. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Worst app of the major networks. Of all the major networks' streaming apps, NBC is by far the worst. Freezing on start-up, video playback errors, app crashes. Fox, CBS, and ABC (Hulu) all work fine. Support acts surprised then turns around and makes a pitch for Peacock.

  11. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Apple TV. Why can’t i buy episodes on Apple TV anymore?

  12. ★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Intrusive ads. App forces an ad when you start a live stream from tv. This is especially prevalent when you’re trying to catch the end of a game and you have to first watch an ad. Sometimes you have to watch an ad just to get to a commercial break - insane.

  13. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    In need of updates. Always crashing and videos don’t load

  14. ★★★★search fails to find what is needed

    Bad code. Every NBC app update forgets that I HAVE a provider registered on my phone and makes me search through their huge list just to find the provider name through the Apple provided API they are SUPPOSED to be using in the first place — and worse, go through the whole login process with the provider NBC made me register in the first place!!! USELESS!!!

  15. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Horrible. Worst App ever. Don’t download, laggy and makes you believe you get to watch something only to switch up on you. DO BETTER NBC.

  16. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Screwed up apps across NBC. I cannot get the NBC or Bravo apps to work, even though I gave access to my TV provider both apps demanded that I allow them to let NBC track me for “advertising purposes” across other apps or it would not work. I don’t think that is legal.

  17. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Garbage. Doesn’t work on ipad

  18. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Frustrating. I keep on getting message “zip code not determined” yet when I go into Dish NBC is listed asan available option

  19. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Ads are getting out of hand. App used to work great, but on mobile every time you touch the screen you get hit by the same ad over and over. Unwatchable after 10 minutes.. Thank you in advance for looking into and fixing!

  20. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Stupid. Can’t determine my zip code when my location is on

  21. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Junk. Your app will not let me watch any show because of area code requirements even when I live in Sioux City and have NBC local

  22. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Robbery. This is totally ridiculous the fcc needs to be dismantled

  23. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No Service. Although we pay money to watch this channel, we still cannot access it due to restrictions placed on it. We get to view other local channels. Why not this one?

  24. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Login. I don’t like now being required to login just to watch the news. Way too complicated

  25. ★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Worst streaming app ever!. This has to be the worst streaming app I’ve ever used. Pop up for their paid subscription after every episode, video messes up if you close and come back, error messages if you leave and disconnect from WiFi. Only using it cuz I really like this show otherwise I don’t recommend 👎

  26. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Olympic fan fail. This is the first time in my life as a spectator not being able to see events from start to finish. Have yet to see any hockey game. Think we’re just done!

  27. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    SWINDLERS. Bunch of “bait & switchers”!!!

  28. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Doesn’t work. I don’t have a satellite provider. I just use NBC broadcast. I just wanted to use the app to watch regular NBC when I’m not home. Didn’t work for that.

  29. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Olympics lockout. Watched Olympics for a week and all of a sudden the app can’t figure out my zipcode and locks me out. Horrible app

  30. ★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Jimmy Fallon. I can’t access the whole show. I’m unsubscribing now
