TVOne Reviews

One day TVOne was working fine and then I started having problems. I cannot watch a complete show without closing TVOne and returning. There is this one Go Army Dallas commercial that pops up randomly as I am watching a show and if I don’t close TVOne before the commercial ends it freezes and I have to try to get TVOne to close and the show starts from the beginning. This is very frustrating and has been going on for about 2 months. I decided to just delete TVOne .

I have been trying to watch Fatal Attraction on TVOne for a few days now. After a commercial finishes playing it’s supposed to go back to where the episode left off. Instead TVOne glitches and my program does not return. There’s just a black screen and the only way fix it is to exit TVOne and restart it and when you do it always plays from the beginning. Not where the program left off. So then I have to search for where I had been. Its a huge problem because this happens almost every commercial break. I’m doing to have delete TVOne all together because it’s that frustrating.

PLEEZE.....FIRE YOUR APP DEVELOPER!!! Your tv app is UNBELIEVABLY POOR!!! Trying to watch any “SHOW” on TVOne is like looking at the Twilight ZONE’S conical loop! After trying to use TVOne on my tv for 3 days now, which by the way only shows this app’s on demand intro page buffering and then returning back to the seasons/episodes page, I decided to let you guys know that YOUR this app ON DEMAND IS A SCAM and a definite failure. Maybe you guys need to try testing your apps with others BEFORE you decide to offer them for public use. How do you or how can give a rating to such an obvious disaster? TVOne is DEFINITELY NOT a well thought out plan.🙋🏾‍♀️😠😠😠😠😷🙋🏾‍♀️.

While I watch TVOne either on my phone or my iPad, when the ads play they stop the show completely! I understand the ads are to run at certain moments, but they pop up unexpectedly out of nowhere while I’m watching my show. When the ads are finished my show does not start back up from the place where it was I have to manually scroll through the show to get back where I was and face another two to three ads and possibly “X-ing” out of my current show and having to start the process all over again. When i was originally watching a show for an hour, takes an hour and a half with all of the extra mess. I’ve been dealing with this issue with your app for a while, please do some testing and check for yourselves. I’ve even deleted TVOne and re-downloaded it again, and it’s still the same issue! I love the content, but the craziness with ads is serious! Please fix!!!

I’m a avid watcher of Fatal Attraction. 1st problem is the network can ONLY be watched on TVOne . TVOne has major problems. After EVERY commercial TVOne freezes on a black screen. After exiting and returning back TVOne plays perfectly, until the next commercial. Now you have to scroll to where you stopped watch yet another commercial before resuming. There was a time when the McDonald’s commercial played 3 times before resuming the show. If it was for the glitches..I would give it 5 stars hands down.

Please fix and allow Privider Sign- in or to download app on Smart TVs.

TVOne needs ALOT OF WORK on both Apple products and Roku products because no episodes play at all the only thing that happens is that the tv one logo pops up and then says it cannot play this station ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling and ive tried restarting my devices and nothing has worked im convinced there is a glitch that needs to be fix with TVOne IMMEADIATELY this is not fair at all because u cant get these shows anywhere not even on spectrum on demand and i want to watch show Fatal Attraction and cant watch it anywhere this needs to be fixed asap

While I appreciate the great amount of content of some of my fave shows it gets increasingly frustrating to see the same three commercials over and over and over. And while it states you can skip the commercial in 5...4...3...2...it doesn’t allow it. I may have watched one or two of the advertised shows at one point but after seeing the same ads for them a thousand times I find myself disliking the show for no other legit reason than having to watch the same annoying ads so many times. It’s a real drag when bingeing. And it’s just as aggravating to start bingeing and having to skip and miss a few episodes because they are unwatchable with the permanent freeze or the pic freezes as the dialogue is continuing. I’ve tried everything to try to fix it but nothing seems to work . Since I see similar comments that are almost a year old now I’m lacking confidence that anyone sees this as a problem worth fixing . I’d give TVOne 5 stars if these two things could be taken care of please and thank you!

I love the shows, however the ads are an issue. The ads play for 15 seconds and then the shows do not restart. You have to manually exit the ad which brings you back to the beginning of whatever show you were watching. I have to guesstimate which area of the show I left off on and hope that another ad does not play.

I enjoy TVOne and love that there are so many episodes of my favorite shows but there are several technical difficulties.

For one, there are certain episodes in certain seasons missing of Fatal Attraction (season 6, episodes 1-18) and For My Man (season 3, episodes 1-10. In Fatal Attraction, seasons 1-4 are missing altogether although there states to be 9 seasons.

TVOne also fails to load my provider after every few times loading TVOne , forcing me to force close TVOne and sign in with my provider again.

There is also an issue with ads that after every 2 ads in an episode, the episode will cut off and fail to load again which means three times during one episode, you are forced to reload the episode completely and fast forward to where you were, meanwhile having to watch the ads again.

TVOne would be perfect other than these issues, and from other reviews - it seems that they have been long-standing.

Please provide feedback within TVOne by going to settings > feedback so that these issues can be solved!

First I really like the shows TVOne has. My only problem is that when the ads come on they are really long. Then come the non-functioning skip option. Why even offer a skip option when it doesn’t work. No matter how many times I press it or where it just will not skip the remaining ad. Please fix this. It really is the only problem TVOne has.

No complaints about the content but the technical issues are way too frequent! I can’t get through one episode of anything without TVOne randomly stopping and the whole screen turning black. With most apps the fix is simply to close TVOne and go back into it so it can refresh. With TVOne I’ve had to clear my browsing data and restart my phone just to get that same episode to load again. It took me 5 tries to watch one episode of The DL Hughley Show.

Other frequent issues:

-The audio will load and play without video at all for only the ad-and the episode will never start
-During the video, on top of correct audio-AD audio will start to play at the same exact time
-Preview screenshots of some shoes and episode will not load on the landing page so you can’t click on them to watch the content
-No video or audio will load after clicking on a desired episode. The screen turns completely black and TVOne will not close
-The pause button doesn’t work at all
-The closed captions are are at all times even when they are supposed to be disabled
-TVOne does not recognize that I am connected to the internet even though i clearly am

I really want access to this content but TVOne is making it very difficult to stick with it and power through. Please fix these issues and send an update ASAP! It’s been 9 months-you are overdue.

Why does it not have all of the episodes....why?!!
I love this app because they have my favorite shows and my kids and husband basically take over the TV just a few improvements are needed. Like if you pause it and start back the ads will play while the show is playing so I’ll I have to pause it until it’s over. Also like with For My Man, season 3 doesn’t work or season six on Fatal Attraction so I would love it if that could be fixed to where I can watch all of them.

I enjoy watching the shows you have. The content is interesting, especially Uncensored and Unsung and I always look forward to seeing who you will interview next. I also like the fact that I don’t have to watch commercials.

I love TVOne cause I’m able to watch my favorite show Unsung (I wish they had the latest seasons) and even a few movies that caught my attention but lately when I try to watch certain episodes of Unsung it says “cannot play stream” is there anyway you can fix that?

This would be a great app if you fixed a few things. It crashes too often and ALL your ads have “Skip Ads” options but NONE of them actually work. Lastly, there are way too many times when the ads are layered on top of the program and you cannot stop it. I get that you need advertising for financial benefits but please FIX IT!

Thanks this app for enabling the viewer to fast forward at commercials we don’t want to see. It is the reason I watch from beginning to end now, because for a long time I didn’t bother with your app because of the agony of looking at commercials. At least we can now go forward IF...it’s an ad we just can’t bear looking at. Thanks a million. Back in love with your channel again!!!

I love TVOne because i love watching Rickey Smiley For Real. I love how everyone from the radio show have their ups and downs, but are still family at the end of the day. I see how Rickey is a father to not only his kids but other kids in the family as well. He’s not the perfect father in the world but hes the perfect father in the world. God bless TVOne and im glad y’all finally made it.

I loveeeee the true crime shows on this app so TVOne allows me to watch them when I’m not in front of my tv BUT I wish they could improve the quality of TVOne . For instance if I pause my show and return to it, it is where I left off BUT when I resume the show the ad and the show are playing at the same time so I end up having to start it all over and fast forward it to where I left off. Other than that, I love it! ❤️😊

I am very disappointed that the D.L. Hughley show will end this week. I find this show very informative,entertaining and love everyone on this show. Whether serious or comedic the whole concept of this show is amazing. I love seeing guests who are fabulous, intelligent and look like me. Instead of having the ridiculous shows of basketball wives angry and fighting all the time this is a show you will regret taking away. It shows dignity and is just an example of black excellence experience.
I’m telling you don’t do it!!!!!!! When this show goes so will I and a lot of people I know.

Although I love TVOne . I am having problems logging into it on my iPhone. When I try to login through my provide with email and password it won’t work. It takes me back to the same screen to log in. Can anyone help? I tried deleting TVOne and reinstalling but still same issue. Not sure if it’s TVOne itself or Directtv

Can anyone help?

TVOne isn’t good compared to other TV apps and needs lots of work. It freezes during ads often and doesn’t seem to remember your place in a show so you have to start over each time you close TVOne or if it freezes during a show. Also, there’s only a rewind button but no fast forward, which would help since you have to start over often. Lastly, it seems I can only watch a show on my device and not on my computer as well (or on fire stick or Apple TV). Both options should be available. Not everyone wants to watch a program on their phone.
