Edit: another update, another downgrade. The original 4:3 aspect ratio option has been removed from older episodes of The Simpsons. If I wanted to see 4/5ths of the picture I'd just watch on the network. Was this tested at all? Do people really prefer to have the original picture chopped just so it fits their widescreen tv? With the amount of sight gags in pre-HD episodes of The Simpsons who wants part of the video cut off? The latest update has turned the app into a buggy mess. Every other or third episode will crash the Chromecast requiring it to reboot. Going from the main menu to the "Simpson's world" menus generally takes two attempts requiring the app to be force closed and restarted. The app acts the same on both Android phones in the household, but runs flawlessly on the iOS device in the house. This was a major downgrade over the previous version of the app, in both functionality and UI. I'll update this review if the problems get resolved. Update 8/26: App still crashes the Chromecast after each episode, still no improvement in performance. I have followed the minimal troubleshooting (clear cache & data) and all it did was require me to log in with my provider again. No change. This occurs on a pixel 2 with the latest Android OS, and crashes a Chromecast that is up to date. As well as an LG G6 with Android 8.0.0. Please do more internal testing because it is a regular issue that looks to be reported by several reviewers.

This app is trash. Whenever I want to skip ahead (or go back) even if it's 15 seconds, I am forced to watch a 30 second commercial. Every. Single. Time. And it's usually the same commercial. AND sometimes it won't go to the time that you selected, instead it'll go to a different time in the show. And if you try and fix it, you guessed it, you're forced to watch another commercial. Absolute trash.

The worst streaming app I have ever used. It will randomly stop while viewing and take you back to the menu and won't always take you back to the right spot when you resume it. Issues with fast forward, rewind, and pause. Don't waste your time, the frustration isn't worth it. Issues with trying to download the app on Xbox. Their troubleshooting articles have not helped with any of the problems.
