It's the least user friendly streaming service and the recommendations are crap.

A fucking Uwe Boll movie has been in the top 10 for months for God's sake

It is the single worst app I’ve ever tried to use across Any platform period. It constantly crashes and is the slowest loading fucking thing ever. Reminds me of when I first got an iPhone back in 09 waiting for shit to load.

All of what you said and it never remembers the settings. I have to turn captains on every single time I open the app. Pure garbage

Have you tried turning them on again after the show is started? That's what did it for me, terrible design, lol

Oh I mean the UI element that let me choose subtitles is now just gone. I cannot select subtitles anymore. 

Also rewind and fast forward crash the app again after having worked for a little but.

What a garbage app, lol

Captain's getting older. How long are you expecting him to keep it up?
