It was fine before changes

I live in the US and enjoyed watching German TV - up until the APP was ‘changed and improved’- the streaming now is very bad, unfortunately. Very disappointing, sometimes good things don’t need to be fixed!
Airplay crashes
Dr. RSL
When I AirPlay a video and the screen goes to sleep the video goes off and reverts to an earlier video. The only way to avoid this is to quit the app and restart, and make sure only to play the video one wants to watch. This bug has plagued this app for years, earlier versions were also affected. Please fix it already!
Doesn’t prevent iPad Sleep
big_h
App doesn’t prevent iPad sleep when video is playing, and video will only play when App is in foreground and active, so forget about airplay to your apple TV. As soon as your iPad sleeps the video stops.
ARD update made App unusable
objective-opinion
ARD mediathek used to be a good source for all kind of videos broadcasted by the public German TV stations. It’s unbelievable how such a big organization (stuffed by billions of taxpayers money) can mess up a previously working app. App got terrible slow; certain functions don’t response or work at all; player doesn’t forward/rewind; etc.... How can you release an App that’s not even on beta-level??? Waste of public money - shame on you ARD!
Dictatorship level crap
ibidochkadepp
ARD funded by dictatorship like gez Gebühr, revamps a ok product now only good for the trashcan. They have no intend to perform, just toward wasting hard eared taxpayer or use it for the greed of their highly overpaid left wing executives. A regime kim jong un or Maduro would be proud off. Thanks Angela...
Crashes Often

This app crashes a lot. I’m glad that I didn’t have to pay money for it. Pity.
What happened
doofie-kobe
This new app is very slow crashes and does not let me stream on my Apple TV, I am so glad I still have the old app on my iPhone. I thought update supposed to make things better just did not happen here I am very disappointed.
Don’t fix if it’s no broken

Diesen Satz scheint man bei der ARD nicht zu kennen. Vorherige Versionen liefen wesentlich besser und stabiler unter den aktuellen iOS Versionen. Warum man das kaputt bastelt, erschließt sich mir nicht. Schade, denn die Mediathek ist mir (und vermutlich vielen tausend anderen im Ausland lebenden Deutschen) ein äußerst wichtiger Verbindungspunkt in die Alte Heimat. Vielleicht schafft ihr es ja, dem jungen Gemüse in der Abteilung Social Media, die vermutlich diese App entwickeln, mal Nahe zu legen, diese App eingehender zu testen, bevor sie zum update publiziert werden.
