Not user friendly
Typical Gunner
I download the app to watch my shows while I’m on the road I have SRT as my provider and when I’m at home I can watch the Travel Channel on the cable box but when I login to this app it says I do not have this channel service seems to me that there is no communication between this app and cable providers. After reading all the reviews on here it seems the app has many issues it’s a shame I love the Channel.
Oddest thing ...
ConcettadiBovino
For some reason the app glitches when you pick “more providers”, it takes 30 seconds and then when I type in RCN it can’t find it. It’s found it before just fine. Even if you type in Verizon it says it can’t find it, so it must be some sort of bug. I hope it gets fixed. Update: The oddest thing: I redownloaded the app The because I remembered one of the notifications asked if I wanted it to use my RCN subscription. Before I said yes and yet it didn’t work. So this time I said no and I was able to find RCN under “more providers” and log in, no problem. Weird.
Login Never Retains
Crewjg
Seemingly, with every app update (Travel Channel, DIY, Food Network, etc.), we are prompted to login once again to our provider. This becomes increasingly annoying, especially since the apps are being updated so frequently. Perhaps this is an IOS issue and not a developer issue. Regardless, investigate the issue and provide a solution.
6-7 Commercials Every 3-4 Minutes

I realize commercials pay the bills (as do we as paying subscribers), but this model is unworkable. After seeing the same 6-7 commercial at least 5 times, the end of the show is cut off. Get in line with your competitors and reduce the number of commercials. As for me, I just deleted the app because Travel Channel’s app is unwatchable. .
Out of Control Editing n Commercials
Terpsichorean Kat
This app’s On Demand shows are edited to the point that the content is seriously affected. Josh Gates Expedition Unknown’s episode titled “Viking Secrets” was edited from over 43m to 35m to allow increased commercials during the holiday season. This is only 1 example of the Travel Channel’s attempt to sell more commercial space. I only follow a few shows but can state that Ghost Adventures, The Dead Files and Expedition Unknown episodes are normally edited post production an additional 1-2m creating a standard 42m stream time. Closing narratives are cut off mid sentence which means the final outcome of investigations are unknown unless you purchase the episodes via iTunes or Amazon. I have more than 25 network On Demand apps installed on my devices. No other network has this blatant commercialism of their shows.
The ONE bug that needed fixing still there!!!

Read the darn reviews left by actual customers. Not the generic 5 star ones you leave for yourself and you’ll see PEOPLE CANNOT LOGIN!!! Once I get the app open I try to search for my cable provider and no matter what letter of the alphabet I type in it tells me there are no providers that start with that letter. I can’t use the app at all. I think that would mean zero stars would be more appropriate.
Choose Provider Glitch

The app has had a glitch when choosing for at least 4 months and has not been fixed. Please fix it!
Commercial repeats

Every time a commercial comes on it’s the same one 7 times!!!! So annoying!! I hate having to mute my tv every single time!
Can’t watch full episodes
RowRowRow
So I’m writing another review because now this is happening at every episode of every show. It cuts off the last 5 minute of the show. Every time. There is no ending. I believe it is because the ads will over play and continue playing into your show time. So once the 7 ads are done you’ve gotten showtime cut off the end of your show. If it glitches and there are more ads then there are supposed to be then you are just screwed. This is extremely frustrating. Please fix this issue. What’s the point of watching a show if the last 5 or so minutes are cut off?
