   Everything. Keeps stopping

   Weird movies and loading problems. For years it’s the same problem. It won’t load on wifi OR network. Usually it’s apparent immediately, for some reason 13 seconds after starting something it’ll stop. Nothing will make it start again except not using the app for hours or days. It took 3 days to finish Rosalie goes Shopping because it would cease loading at random times during the movie. It does this on any device, any network, any time you update the app it doesn’t change a thing. Restarting, deleting and redownloading, nothing. Doesn’t matter what movie or show I’m watching, it’ll just stop working. You’ve fluffed the reviews with so many fake 5 stars no one can tell. Also I notice roughly half the movies on here are overly sexual or have a lot of vomiting. It’s weird. Why? Even if it’s a mainstream movie they made to sure get the ones with nudity or throwing up. Super bizarre. I’m not a prude but it’s so much that I expect it in each title I open. Either it won’t load or someone is naked or sick. All of this is still true months later. I can’t get even start most movies because they simply don’t work.

3. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

   Ruined by casino app ads. This used to be my favorite free video streaming app… huge library with some ads. No big deal. Canceled my Netflix, Hulu, Disney, Paramount, & Shudder and just watched Tubi… for years now. Then this year something happened. 90% of the ads, or more, are for casino slot apps. Over and and over and over. I saw so many slot machine app ads eventually i figured “what the hell, I’ll download one and spin during commmercials since I’m force to watch it anyway, who knows maybe I’ll win” I never really gambled before this. I maybe buy 1 or two lottery tickets a year. But soon i found myself downloading every single gambling app I see a commercial for. I was no longer watching tv shows and movies on Tubi, I was just playing it in the background while i played slot machine apps Everytime i would near the minimum amount to withdraw, my luck would sour and I’d lose everything in the blink of an eye. I decided after a month of this that the apps were all rigged and would probably never let most people win just like at Casinos. But I was hooked on chasing that jackpot now, and turned to other apps like Kalshi and Polymarket where I’ve mad much more success, but that’s besides the point. The point is that these nonstop gambling ads are dangerous, I went from someone who rarely gambles to someone with a gambling addiction in one month, and I don’t just blame the gambling apps themselves… I also blame the politicians and companies like Tubi that allow these gambling app companies to just brainwash people into becoming gambling addicts by showing them 5 back to back gambling app ads every 20 min every time they watch a 90 min movie. It’s completely immoral and irresponsible. I don’t have a problem with gambling itself, I have a problem with the way it’s being promoted. That being said, I will be sadly be deleting Tubi and not coming back until this practice of nonstop gambling ads ends. Deuces

   App glitches. This application would be great if it functioned properly, but it doesn’t. It glitches constantly freezes and there are too many ads.

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

   What’s going on. Freezing a lot lately could barely make it through a movie

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

   Why is Ed, Edd n Eddy: the big picture show leaving. Just why???? Edit: STOP GIVING ME ADS, ESPECIALLY WHAT NOT ADS!!! MY MOM IS TOO OBSESSED WITH WHAT NOT AND I CAN'T BREAK HER PIT OF THAT HABIT!!! stop it

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

   Tubi. Keeps saying movie can't be played

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

   Their adds are way to long. Way to many adds and their long like 30 sec

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

   Crashing. My shoes keep crashing

    PUT BAD GIRLS CLUB ALL SEASONS BACK ON TUBI. PUT BAD GIRLS CLUB ALL SEASONS BACK ON TUBI!!!!

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

    App SUCKS!!!!!!. So your app sucks!!! Even after your silly little update it still sucks!! Constantly buffering and interrupting everything I watch. Can’t get through an episode of anything without it buffering every three seconds.

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

    Don’t get it. not worth it.. I keep getting an error code, saying the video does not play. Funny enough the commercials play just fine.

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

    Buffering. Version 10.25.0 the recent update sucks ever more. All the videos still buffering the whole time. Whoever works on this app needs to fix this issue now!!! I am so frustrated with you guys. This is a free app and I’m having more trouble with this than any other app. Just do an update and fix the buffering!!!

14. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    My Stuff not working. You need to fix the app. You can’t save shows like Conan or YouTubers or random shows to my stuff and I’m not the only one having problems. If your parent company can buy Roku for billions, I’m sure you can fix this problem!

15. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Commercials. Way too many commercials and the worst part is that they play the same commercials over and over!

16. ★★★★★privacy and excessive permissions

    Greedy Oligarchs. HERE WE GO WITH THIS BLOCKING NONSENSE BS. VPN use is for security purposes and NOT ILLEGAL IN THE US. You are forcing access to my private protective data and disrupting use of LEGAL SECURITY MEASURES TO PROTECT MYSELF. So unless I weaken my security, surrender my personal data to whatever greedy oligarchy third party information money making trafficking corporations, and SURRENDER ALL MY RIGHTS GUARANTEED / PROTECTED BY LAW / CONSTITUTION to privacy/security then I can’t use your product? Then a BIG F/U TO YOU! FIX THIS BS as it WAS NOT AN ISSUE BEFORE… So as promised, I’m here to expose Tubi’s greedy data grab BS in multiple reviews daily on Apple and any available platform available. WE THE CONSUMER HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW, A RIGHT TO TAKE ACTION, A RIGHT TO SPREAD AWARENESS when entities like yours are subverting rights and crushing the barely surviving poor/working class. YOU MAKE MONEY OFF THE HARDWORKING BACKBONE OF AMERICA. It hasn’t worked for Netflix every time they’ve tried blocking the LEGAL USE OF VPN’s with ample backlash and it certainly won’t work for you either!

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

    Constant. When I watch a series and try to go back and watch an the episode again it doesn’t load up… And constantly buffing

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

    Terrible connection and playback. The videos pause constantly, they usually time out and continue to load mid video, you have to back out of the entire video and then go back in to have it play again, then it freezes about 6 out of 10 times if you try to fast forward to where it originally froze. Such a bad app. But it’s all that’s out there, so I guess just live with it.

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

    Unreliable. This app is so glitchy. Half the movies i want to watch wont play through

20. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Too many Ads. Trying to watch a movie on Tubi is a miserable experience. I've never seen so many ads littered throughout a movie. Not only are ads constantly cutting off what you're watching, every ad break has 6 to 7 ads you have to suffer through. I will not be watching anything on Tubi because of this. I do not recommend.

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

    Ads. The ads are so many for no reason. They keep getting increased each break. It’s very frustrating even if the movies and shows are free

22. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    L. Too many ads and no options for no ads

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

    can yall stop taking all the good stuff off bruh. so like yall took coraline off and are now going to take dark harvest off… AND yall are taking she’s the man off.. can we not? 😔

24. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Great shows and movies available. But the app always has issues and at times it makes it feel like the great shows and movies aren’t worth the trouble due to the app constantly having issues and not working

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

    Ad’s and Ad’s. Tubi has more Ad’s than regular television and cable combined. Why 2 stars, because it’s free.

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

    Bring back the shows!. Bring back Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) and Jackie Chan Adventures!

27. ★★★★★slow performance and long loading times

    Hanging and slow to load. One of the most exceptional free TV shows I have ever encountered. It offers a comprehensive collection of your preferred movies. However, I have recently encountered some issues with its performance. The loading process is excessively slow , and there are instances of the screen freezing while watching. These problems are quite frustrating. I kindly request that you address these issues as I was able to use the show smoothly in the past.

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

    The Ave. Bad connection

29. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Overwhelming ads. I had a hard time, deciding between three and four stars. I love this app. I love the selection. I love how easy it is but they overload you with ads. I understand that they have to have some ads, but this is ridiculous. Please try to cut back on the ads a little bit. There are 7 ads, at least, for every ad break.

30. ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data

    Incorrect Language. If my phone is in English why can’t I read the description if it’s all in another language that I can’t understand bc it’s not translated at all . The only translation is the captions in the show or movie. How can I know what the show is about if I can’t read the description? Is this discrimination against non bilingual readers? I can translate it myself but why should I again?
