Destination America GO Reviews

by Terpsichorean Kat

First off a 4 minute commercial time break is not acceptable-I have screen shots of it should proof of be requested after posting this issue on their site and here.
I really enjoy Destination America’s programming even though viewing it costs me an additional $50 a month on my cable bill since it’s only available as a premium channel.
Since work necessitates my catching up on episodes via DestinationAmericaGO , 90% of my viewing is done in this fashion.
I game and run 15+ channel specific apps, and only have streaming issues when utilizing DestinationAmericaGO. The problems range from the show freezing every 30 seconds to a show segment of 8-10 minutes repeating several times before the show continues normally. It’s occurred with different series so the glitch isn’t just affecting 1-2 streaming events. On top of that, 2 advertisers have commercials that will repeat up to 8X’s before other advertising takes over. I’m now avoiding those products since I’m sooo sick of their ads.
I’ve contacted the developers, removed, reinstalled, and utilized multiple devices trying to correct the issues without any resolution. When I asked friends who have the same app and different cable providers they shared similar problem lists.
I hope DestinationAmericaGO developers can correct the problems but it’s been 6m w/o any discernible improvement so who knows when and if it’ll get better.......

I love destination America but DestinationAmericaGO does not work all my other apps and the other tv channel apps like TLC go or Travlechannle go work wonderfully, I have a very reliable new I pad and DestinationAmericaGO will not load I have to delete it and re download every time I want to watch something and if I click out of it accidentally I’m can’t get back in, I don’t have any clue why this is happening but I wish it was fixed already.

We are trying to watch shows through an app NOT on live television, why the hell do they have to put 2.5-3.5 minute long commercial breaks in their shows? Are you kidding me, this is becoming intolerable and making it difficult to watch any of the shows. I end up falling asleep waiting for the commercials to end. I’m going to stick to Netflix and my other on-the-go apps which don’t have ridiculously long unnecessary and frequent commercial breaks in their shows.

This worked ONCE on my iPad while connected to my home network, which gets its IP service from Charter/Spectrum.
Next attempt, nothing would play even though logged in, ALL things were showing red which was explained away as not being available on my network. Funny thing that...the show is ON MY TV at the moment, but not on my IPAD and yet as soon as I try on my mobile phone..it works? Inconsistent. I’m not throttled, and there’s plenty of data. Not coming back to this for a while.

I pay sling to watch your channels and yet you don’t give us the ability to watch all the episodes? I love the channel just hate how I can’t get a person to talk to either. You really should appreciate all of your customers and give them the same abilities to enjoy your diverse programming.

This is really irritating that it does not allow dish network to be a provider when I can watch this channel on dish I miss a lot of my favorite shows because I’m at work and I would love to be able to watch them at work and get caught up on episodes that I’ve missed without having to record all them on my hopper worst app ever

I have signed in at least a dozen times and each instance it keeps displaying that I am not signed in. The DiscoveryGO app works fine, I don’t see why it’s so difficult for the sister app to work similarity without all the sign in issues. It’s just as well since there’s only one season of BBQ Pitmasters available, zero episodes of Smoked, and about nine million dumb ghost shows I have absolutely no interest in.

Claims its free but DA will tell you that a subscription is needed BEFORE you can watch. I pay for premium cable & watch many other network programs FREE through my TV Everywhere account. Destination America wants me to subscribe & pay EXTRA to use App & watch the same programs that are part of my cable package. So IT IS NOT FREE!! Im not about to pay for something that I've already paid for through my cable package. I'm not about to pay extra just to watch this fake sh**t on the go.

I love DestinationAmericaGO by why is there no way to manually log in? It only ever wants to try and log into my friends wifi and use there xfinity account. If this is destination America go shouldn't I be able to use it on the go not at my house??

I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or what, but the need to activate my device(s) 2 to 3 times a day just to watch a show is a bit annoying. This and this alone makes me give 2 stars.
Is there a way to keep my device(s) activated?

by Dmitria Ann

I got DestinationAmericaGO expecting to have to pay some kind of subscription fee, since I knew it was too good to be true that a free app would give me unlimited access to some of my favorite shows.

But I’m not about to sign up for cable in order to use DestinationAmericaGO . Talk about a let down.

I gave it three stars because DestinationAmericaGO itself isn’t to bad from what I was able to do on it. No buffering.

But the commercials were a bit much, given you HAVE to already be paying for cable to gain full access. Again, even with a subscription fee, I wouldn’t have cared about the commercials.

Not sure why Railroad Alaska was canceled but I had a group of friends that met each week to watch! We love most shows regarding Alaska but this was our favorite! Why was it canceled? Is there any chance that you’ll reconsider and bring Railroad Alaska back on Destination America or Discovery? PLEASE 🙏🙏🙏

Fantastic I hope they fix the problem when they have the chance because we will not get angry.

Nice app with many shows not currently on TV. So it’s nice. Only complaint is the high number of commercials. Be nice to limit the commercials to only 0-4 instead of 8 in a row at times. Jeez I put my phone down and walk off. If it wasn’t for the shows I wouldn’t watch it at all.

This is not running smooth even though I’ve unlocked. Only got to see 1 uk Katrina & Nick. Then tried after the lockdown and None ran. Been looking for Nick & Katrina since last season. So frustrated don’t know if ill remember to check back to see if you’ve fixed problems. Also not many shows in total on Dest. America

I love destination America, I do wish they would play more of mountain monsters on this channel with Trapper on the show it’s always good. Don’t like the new version it’s about them not monsters...... the best episode is the Grassman’s “Revenge.

by Talkboy101

I can finally watch all my favorite shows I love DestinationAmericaGO so much

by We Are Not Ea We Are Not Ea

I only got DestinationAmericaGO for mountain monsters and I was not disappointed and this is my second review because the first one I said it only needed one more episode and it got that episode so now DestinationAmericaGO is everything I wanted

by Imnroca

I love history and science so I have been watching Mysteries at the Museum since it started..fascinating things to see and learn.. I also like the castle segment...need more of that one..

by Patmonych
