absolutely counter intuitive, cant find programmes you have started, cant continue programmes you starter earlier, no clarity, no summaries visible a lot of the time

It is totally rubbish, isnt it

As if by magic, ITVX has just died. I can't load anything.

Honestly, it has to be the buggiest bit of software ever. I think Microsoft have finally been surpassed.

It's an abomination. BBC I player is a Rolls Royce compared to the ITV Robin Reliant.

It really pisses me off when it forgets where you were or restarts after adverts. My5 is even more glitchy for me than ITV's app, it sometimes it won't even open and has many of the same issues others have mentioned. I only watch a couple of shows on there but glad I don't pay for privilege.

The lack of subtitles on some streamed stuff pisses me off as it would be available on live TV, luckily I can hear it just helps me process unlike some.

We only use ours to watch Midsomer Murders when it's a rainy Sunday. There's a million ad breaks. It will either glitch in the ad break so you get one ad on repeat to infinity so have to restart and 'fast forward' to where you where or completes an ad cycle only to restart at the beginning of the bloody programme.

Sometime it does the joy of restarting the sound from the beginning but the visuals of where you left off.

Fuck it.

There’s hardly anything on ITV that’s worth watching, but occasionally I pay the £6 to avoid the annoying ads and watch something interesting like Joan. The new James Norton drama looks good and I’ve not experienced any glitches regardless of whether I’ve paid or not (I recently watched an episode of Corrie).
