American Idol - Watch and Vote Reviews

by Flyinjeep

I’ve downloaded and deleted AmericanIdol 3 times. Wanted to have it just for a way to cast mor votes. I’ve read where people have had problems with AmericanIdol. I can’t get it to even allow me to sign up. I fill out everything but it won’t progress past the sign up page. Three times downloading app with several attempts signing up each time to me is a joke. App definitely needs work. With so many people having complaints I would think they would fix it or give up. I won’t waste my time trying again. I’ll just keep texting my 10 votes for my contestants. To be able to cast more than 10 would be nice but.

I put my daughters birthdate in. She wasn’t old enough and it wouldn’t let me put in a different birthdate in, so I deleted AmericanIdol and then re-downloaded it. When you delete a app, it says it will delete ALL the data, but when I re-downloaded it, it still wouldn’t let me put my REAL birthdate in it, it still said I was to young. That means AmericanIdol didn’t delete all the data, and instead kept it. Which, on my part, is unfair. You should fix this.

I can never get the show to come back after commercials. Every time it starts a commercial it leaves 2 seconds on the show, so when it does come back it shows 2 more seconds then restarts the commercials. It normally takes me 3-4 hours of trying to watch the show to get through the whole thing. They only way to get it to sort of work is to close AmericanIdol at every new commercial break and restart it. It’s honestly the worst.

I’ve been doing technology since DOS and this is the worst written app! No less than 7-8 steps to sign up through ABC via Facebook then confirmation through parent company Disney.

Trust me you be getting Disney vacation offers through your email and who knows what other personal info they now have. Clicking decline on emails means nothing they have your info to market now. Great way to ruin something fun.
And my wife’s version for voting looks different than mine and we downloaded at the same time!

Worked first time I downloaded & voted. Now, second episode to vote and won’t do anything. Soon as I started app, AMERICAN IDOL logo with ABC underneath comes up with all its animated shooting stars. App then just crashes & home screen appears. Tried repeatedly to delete, re-download, reboot, you name it. All same result. Sadly, I guess I can’t vote to keep my favorites going forward in the competition. Simply to complicated to text or call in votes so I guess you’ve lost a fan’s votes. So unfair to these incredibly talented performers putting it all on the line each week to achieve their dreams. Disney & ABC...shame on you not fixing AmericanIdol & having it in the pristine shape the performers are in. They deserve so much better...& you should be delivering in spades like they do to support them. FIX IT!!

I can’t seem to get AmericanIdol open to tonight so I missed voting. I also don’t like the new system of having to watch the show and vote. I usually have to work late, so I tape the show and watch when I get home. Voting should last till at least midnight or later. This is limiting who can vote. Also some of my older friends liked it when they could call in. Not everyone has a smart phone or comfortable using it to vote. Votes just should ‘t be limited to only some. Sad I missed voting...

Here I am sitting here try to make an account and when I put in everything it says your to young and then when I try again I can not but when I come to AmericanIdol Store it says 4+ yo I was born 2011 I’m older then I need to be so now I have to do it one my moms phone you might be thinking that sounds fine but it’s not me and my mom always have different votes last season my mom thought one person was Worth 4 points but I thought it was 2 points so it’s a big diffrence

Not only were my votes too late to be counted (there’s no way that Ryan was handed the last commercial break results) but the last commercial break was the ONLY time my votes went through. Then this morning I wanted to listen to an Idol’s song... no dice. AmericanIdol won’t even load. It shows the logo, fades black, and closes itself. Crappy app. Will delete and vote via text which is what I should have done in the first place!!!

All was fine with Idol App until this morning. When I tried to open it, it closed immediately. I deleted and then downloaded - same problem. I did vote last night and am wondering if AmericanIdol broke down. Otherwise I was enjoying it and was able to view past performances and vote. Sorry for the two stars, but AmericanIdol isn’t working at the moment.

Great app I’m able to vote and keep track of my favorites but as of Today it started not even going past the Load screen even though earlier today it was working fine. Starts loading up and then quits. Quite frustrating hopefully it gets fixed before next week.

Soooooo I accidentally put 2007 when it asked for my birthday when I was creating an account and I’m actually born in 2001. it says “you are not eligible to sign in or register here.” How do I fix that. Do I just wait or can I never create an account??

I love AmericanIdol and all, but there are a few things I want it to be fixed. The first thing is, after you see all the contestants on TV and you might’ve missed a few you try to get on AmericanIdol to see the people you missed and it loads for a second but then it glitches you out of AmericanIdol . I asked some friends to try to do the same thing and they said the same thing happened to them. But what I like about AmericanIdol is that the voting is super easy you just click a few buttons of how much you want them and then save your votes and you’re good! This is a great app but it can be better.

AmericanIdol is great and makes voting easy. However, it is difficult to create an account in AmericanIdol . If the birthdate is accidentally put in as someone under 18, AmericanIdol locks you out and doesn't allow you to make an account at all.

I think AmericanIdol is awesome and I love being able to vote! I have had no problems with it and I’ve had it for a long time! Definitely should get it it’s totally worth it! Thanks american idol for allowing us to vote virtually!

by Lrhgnh

American Idol is amazing! I totally recommend it! You can also vote on your favorites from the top 24 and down! Me and my aunt and mom always pick our favorite and vote 10 for them and the rest 3-7! Try it out and have fun!

by Ada Vox Is Boss

I honestly have no idea why people say it doesn’t work. Seriously, there is nothing wrong with it!! I have had AmericanIdol for a while now, and I have never had a problem-truthfully. The American Idol app is a great idea, I love it, and there is no problems. And, if you are reading this, VOTE FOR ADA VOX!!!

I <3 her!!

by RawleyMac

I love American Idol and love the ease of use with AmericanIdol . Just wondering if I’m the only one having trouble with AmericanIdol ? I try to go into AmericanIdol to vote, it acts like it is going to open and then completely closes out....is the system overloaded? Is it my phone? Is there a bug?

by Spinchguy

I don’t understand why people are saying AmericanIdol doesn’t work. It works perfectly 100% of the time. AmericanIdol isn’t broken. Great user interface. I would recommend AmericanIdol to all my friends and family. AmericanIdol doesn’t appear broken. No problems at all.

I have been watching Idol since it’s inception and this by far had the best singers. My pick is Caleb, who has such an awesome voice. I love traditional country and he sure sang that. Maddie was good and congrats to her on her win. Didn’t think the judges would be good but they were. Can’t wait to hear Ryan say “This is American Idol” for the next new talented contestants!

I love American Idol ! It is my favorite show ever. My sister and I stay in the phone with each other the entire program! We are being judges also. We have a lot of fun. We love all the judges also! This show brings us some excitement and at a time like this, everyone needs good entertainment. Thank you, Betty House,Alabama

The rules allow 30 votes. 10 online, 10 via AmericanIdol , and 10 via text. After submit 20 online and via text, going to AmericanIdol , you’re asked to log in, and then told you’ve already voted. This could change the outcome of this entire contest. Seems very unfair. My favorite (Laci) should have 10 more from me and 10 more from other family members. If it’s only 20 total - then say that, but if not, please fix AmericanIdol ASAP.

by A Customer That Cares

Everything works except the most important thing in AmericanIdol . Voting. And depending how many people this is happening to, could change the voting outcome and your favorite artist being kicked off the show! All of the people unable to vote, complaints, still nothing fixed. And having to vote before show????? Terrible idea. How do you know how they are going to perform. The last season that the show was on you could vote until show started and it lasted I think until 7:00 am the following day. I think the show is now rigged.
