Live sport and box sets great

Thanks for making it easy

It’s ok if I only want to watch first third of any episode

Driving me nuts. I’d like to support the app, I enjoy the selection of dramas on offer, but I can’t rejoin an episode where I stopped watching, it’s hard to follow any series when you get a blank screen one third of the way in where the adds should be, and any effort to stop or restart leads to nothing. Awful.

This app is a half hearted attempt to say the least. It is slow, cumbersome and the content is poor. A step backwards from its predecessor RTÉ international, which was far from perfect, but at least had some decent content available to watch. Come on guys you can do better than this.

Disappointing

It’s exciting to find The RTÉ app to ease the home sickness but it runs very slow and frequently crashes. You would be brave to try to rewind or fast forward. Would be delighted if it ran well. Would be great to share links to content on social media. Hopefully a new version will fix all this.

Awful experience

I mostly use the RTÉ Player to catch the news on my Apple TV. It’s an awful experience. You have to hunt through a clunky menu to find the news. When watching there are endless adds and no ability to easily scrub video when watching a programme, just some awful non-standard UI. Awful awful experience.

Disappointing performance of app

I’ve been trying to watch a series on the TV app, and in every single episode, I’ve been thrown out at some point. I got to episode 6 and this happened again only now it’s not letting me back in at all. Am reduced to watching on my phone. Not one bit impressed

Rubbish

App is absolutely deplorable, the amount of adds is crazy, app constantly pauses on very good network, crazy in this day and age of great apps.

So this is what the license gets us?

Just tried watching “Colin from accounts”. Great show but found it strangely difficult to follow after a few episodes. After investigating, it turns out the player can’t seem to understand sequence. Episodes played randomly from either season. Complete incompetence. I’d expect nothing less from RTE.
