ITVX slow to load and slow to respond to controls, compared to apps like BBC IPlayer or More 4. Virtually unusable.

It always has been. Almost unusable tbh. I don't really know why they haven't sorted it out because people have been complaining about it for years!

Yep Its as shit as ITV Hub was i tried the hub twice on two occasions seven years apart and watched a programme (cant remember what) watched the first part, then after the adverts it played the first part again. Utterly useless I have no intention of trying ITV X

Yes!
I thought i was alone

It's just so slow. Eveytime I click to search or click on something to watch,
it feels like it takes 20 mins to respond.

It's so unusable, I just don't bother watching anything.

It's fine for me
Sometimes you click play and it has the whirly thing going round and round but we worked out you just press pause and it actually then plays it
Once we figured that out we were fine

The endless advertisement circle of doom! And heaven forbid if you need to stop watching something and want to come back to it at another time!
It doesn't even remember which episodes you've watched

Yes, I rarely use it precisely because the interface is terrible.

BESTAUNTB · 03/07/2024 19:13

There’s some decent content on there but the app itself is poor. It’s like it was designed in the very early days of apps and never updated.

TakeOnFlea · 03/07/2024 19:13

IPlayer kicks me out when I go to play something. Usually 2 or 3 times before I can get it going. Anyone else?

Itvx. Ugh, I find it impossible to browse the programmes on there

Moier · 03/07/2024 19:14

Mine is as fast as all the others.. pretty fast.
No problem

hobbledyhoy · 03/07/2024 19:14

Yes, utter shite. I was very disappointed when I realised BritBox was no longer and it was being hosted on itvX

on holiday. try screen mirroring england footy on ITVX through a VPN on a pocket WiFi connection….

<weeps>

Lesina · 03/07/2024 19:14

It’s very glitchy. Great content but very annoying to use.

Jc2001 · 03/07/2024 19:17

Yep. It's crap. Slow, clunky and hard to navigate and even if you do pay a subscription, you still get adverts on a lot of the content
