I find the app extremely frustrating to use. There's no button to skip ahead or go back on a video, so when there are podcasts with long intro countdowns the slider is impossible to position accurately to skip ahead in time. I think the podcast hosts post time stamp links in the podcast description, but the app cuts the description off before three time stamp section, and I can't find any way to display the entire description. It's really a terribly designed app.

The features, such as chat, posting format, and community development are amazing. However, the actual stream quality/reliability could be improved upon. For example, when watching live streams, buffering can be common (with stable internet/ethernet connections), and the delay is quite large when compared to other streaming platforms. I see many people have similar problems, and could use some work in my opinion. Other than that, it's great app!

This app is in need of a serious features upgrade. The video player is horrible. No pop out, no playing in the background, no pausing or rewinding a live broadcast. Needs major work, especially as it's hosting some major names with huge audiences. Recent update, now the program hangs and never loads. Constantly sending me notifications, but I can't open the program.
