Cartoon Network App Reviews

by Aslasar

Ok so the main reason I wanted to download CartoonNetworkApp is because I wanted to catch up on some Steven Universe, which is one of my favorite shows. I opened CartoonNetworkApp , and it asked me to choose my favorite shows. I clicked Steven universe and said ok. It switched to a screen of episodes, and a loading screen. I am okay with waiting a few minutes and I wait for about five. It doesn’t load. I quit out and try again. Still on the waiting screen. I delete CartoonNetworkApp after waiting for so long that my iPhone actually shut itself off. I try again, redownloading it and it tells me to pick my shows, I choose SU and TAWOG (the amazing world of gumball) I wait 10 minutes and nothing. Honestly I am so done with CartoonNetworkApp, it is so poorly designed. What should happen was, I open CartoonNetworkApp and then it goes to a menu, saying all the new episodes of shows and a search bar at the top. This could be the menu. If you could fix this it would be great. Right now I can’t even watch my favorite shows so I am reviewing this as a 1 star. If there was a 0 star I would rate it that. I am utterly disappointed with this application.

Honestly… I can’t judge because I’ve only had CartoonNetworkApp for 20 mins but from what I have seen, I think I’ve had enough. I do t like CartoonNetworkApp for sorts of reasons 1- adds The adds are a loop(in my view) they keep going on forever. It says that the video will play after 50 seconds and it counts down. But when it gets to 30 seconds it goes back to 50. It does not end. 2- episodes are locked Most of the episodes are locked. I was trying to watch unikitty but only a sort amount of episodes were available. It’s says CartoonNetworkApp is free and I think you have to unlock the others with money or a subscription. 3- shows There are more shows in cartoon network on the tv. CartoonNetworkApp only provides 10 or 12 but not more than that. I was upset since one of my favorite shows was not In there. As I’ve said, please do not mark my words because I may be wrong. This is just my opinion. You can try it out but I personally don’t like it and it’s a waste of time trying to watch the shows( because of the adds). I do t even know why I rated it 1 star when it should be 0. I will try to discover more things on CartoonNetworkApp because I have high hopes. Maybe this is because I am screen mirroring:( idk. But please give this a try you never know, this might work for you.

Cartoon Network has good shows like Gumball and Adventure Time at your fingertips, but the application itself is terrible. It automatically starts playing a show every time you login, most of the time something you don’t want to watch. Then you have to go find the series you want to watch, each time it opens up the latest episode to air. So then after closing yet another episode you want to watch you have to scroll to the episode in the list you do want to watch, this often times crashes CartoonNetworkApp or freezes it up. Not to mention the obnoxious ads. Every time you open an episode it plays two ads 30 seconds each. This isn’t too bad, except they play each time you start a new episode. So to get to the episode you want to watch you have to close those ads each time. Then after you finish an episode it plays 3 more minutes of ads. This is dumb on their part because the only part after this ad is the credits.

So to recap, to watch one episode of a 10 minute show, I have to skip two separate ads, scroll through several screens, and withstand the terrible layout and crashes of CartoonNetworkApp .

Cartoon Network is already killing itself with the new terrible shows they producing, they don’t need any help with a completely useless app.

We have CartoonNetworkApp on our iPads and tv, they crash CONSTANTLY. Sometimes the loading screen isn’t even over before it crashes. It’s also absolutely terrible to navigate, it plays a show while you navigate through to find what you want, but more often than not, it figures you didn’t click something so you must want to watch the current show...before other show options have loaded.
Using CartoonNetworkApp to find a show is incredibly obnoxious and it will constantly time you out of your selection, AND you cannot pick a new show during commercials so if you pick up an episode that has maybe 2 seconds left to it, it does not restart and it will play those two seconds as you frantically try to change the episode or rewind it, before CartoonNetworkApp assumes you must want to watch 2 minutes of commercials for 2 seconds of video time. THEN, they will kindly play the credits for you before ANOTHER two minutes of commercials.
I don’t know who thought it was good, but it’s probably the worst designed app I’ve ever used.
Honestly, it’s not worth the frustration. Stream on any other app if you can.

CartoonNetworkApp works fine and does provide access to shows that aren't airing on the network. However this review has less to do with CartoonNetworkApp quality, but instead how ads are handled on CartoonNetworkApp. Now since I don't have cable I expect commercials, but when I was viewing them the ads literally include links to third party sites when ads play in between programs. One time the UI had a bug where when I tapped the screen while a commercial was playing it just shot me to a third party website. Now I would have normally just deleted this thing and wrote it off as just bad adware, but realize that this is specifically designed to be used by *children*. It even says "go grab an adult" when you plug in a cable subscription. CN this is absolutely disgusting and there's *no way* I would allow children to use CartoonNetworkApp, and be turned into your cash cow. Honestly these marketing practices should be illegal. Shame on you for soliciting kids in this way and to creators like Rebecca Sugar and Ian-Jones Quartey I would seriously question being associated with a company that does things like this.

Let me start off by saying this isn’t an app made for adults (big shocker, huh). I, however, am a fan of several of the shows that are air on the network. The issue with CartoonNetworkApp , to me at least, boils down to episodes hidden behind what I’ll refer to as “The Cable Wall”. Basically, in order to access EVERYTHING, one has to already have some kind of Cable or Satellite TV provider. This is fine... except for the fact that people like myself don’t really use it have subscriptions to TV anymore: it’s just becoming obsolete compared to online platforms. This is an issue across MANY of these networks, not just CartoonNetworkApp. I’d be perfectly fine paying $9.99 a month like Netflix to watch whatever shows I wanted whenever and wherever I wanted, but because I don’t have cable the only method I have of watching my favorite shows is by going to creepy foreign websites where my adblocker stops 400+ ads. Of course that’s an exaggeration but you get the idea.

I think I speak for a lot of people, both individuals and families. TVs are becoming a thing of the past, everybody’s got phones now: why not turn this into a Netflix ordeal and allow people access to ALL of their shows instead of punishing people who aren’t pumping huge amounts of money into the soon-to-be technology of yesterday?

I usually only use CartoonNetworkApp whenever I’m bored and want to watch Cartoon Network shows. However the layout is absolute garbage. If you don’t want an episode to play automatically don’t choose your “favorite shows”, it will play those “favorite shows” automatically. But when you want to choose shows, it doesn’t even show all of the shows. Many popular shows aren’t on there anymore just because they ended, making CN lose a lot of money because they don’t think people like the show enough.

Of course, I must think of the children who use CartoonNetworkApp, the automated play feature is quite nice for them but the excessive ads and crashing is not. Before an episode there are one or two thirty second ads, then after the episode there is 2 minutes worth of ads that are mostly CN advertising toys or apps to the kids, which will cost the parents money because their kids will start to beg for the toys/apps.

Overall, CartoonNetworkApp is okay as long as you are okay with a small selection of shows and excessive ads.

CartoonNetworkApp does seem pretty good upon first downloading it but it has some big issues. The UI of CartoonNetworkApp is a train wreck. Everything is in landscape mode and when you open CartoonNetworkApp it doesn’t let you choose what you want to watch it just starts playing a random episode of a show. That doesn’t seem like a problem except sometimes it plays an ad before that episode, when you see an ad on CartoonNetworkApp you’re completely helpless. You can’t choose what you want to watch next and then watch the ad on episode you actually want to watch or anything similar. With longer series, you have to scroll for so long to find the episode you’re looking for, this could be solved with a search function. The biggest issue is that CartoonNetworkApp constantly crashes for no reason and that needs to be fixed. While those are big problems, it is a good app in the sense that it lets you watch any episode of pretty much any show you want. If the UI and bugs are fixed, this would genuinely be a great app.

Okay so. I’m a CN luva. I adore Cartoon Network. I have most of my life. I’m a middle schooler girl. But, y’all are just slowly going downhill. Your shows are starting to get…meh. I watched this show called we baby bears (based off of we bare bears) and I watched it and was disappointed. It was made for younger kids and I was so bored! I was looking forward to that show for months and it just left me disappointed. I miss your old shows. I still like CN and watch a lot of your shows (Gumball, adventure time, Elliott from earth, we bare bears, Unikitty, Teen Titans GO!, tig n seek, Powerpuff girls (I’m a girl), DC superhero girls, etc) anyway, yeah! Like please do better with y’all’s shows. Cuphead is better than these! (I’m a lover so…) anyway yeah and like y’all’s episodes are locked and I used to have CartoonNetworkApp on my phone because I thought it would be fine but nope. It didn’t do me any good. So I just replaced it with Netflix and YT kids. CN is OKAY it’s just….y’all need to make better shows and let them be unlocked. And OH MY GOD STOP WITH TRYING TO BE A BABY CHANNEL. THRERES ALREADY ENOUGJ OF THEM OUT THERE. A majority of Disney and nicks channel time has nick jr and Disney jr. I’m unsatisfied. There’s enough out there. Just stop! It’s stupid baby shows that’s just going to annoy the larger crowd u already had!

CartoonNetworkApp is fine, you get to watch all your favorite shows on your phone, and CartoonNetworkApp is laid out nicely. But a huge problem I have, is how you can only watch certain episodes, and sometimes there’s only one episode of a certain season. If you are looking for a certain episode, it may not be there. I had started watching an episode of Steven Universe and didn’t get to finish it, so when I went back to finish it, it was no longer there. I don’t want to watch it illegally, and a lot of the times your favorite shows aren’t even playing and it’s just TTG. I want to watch my favorite shows, my favorite episodes, without having to wait a few days just for that episode to be back. Another problem I have is the login feature. If you don’t log in, you can’t watch some episodes, and they especially do this with the important episodes. Although, I don’t see the reason to do this, as there is nothing you can buy using this login, it’s an utterly useless feature, unless there is a reason but it just seems pointless in my opinion. The login feature doesn’t have to go, but I certainly think that the ‘certain episode’ feature is a big problem.

I love using CartoonNetworkApp to watch my favorite shows, but I have two problems. One: The ads. The ads are so long! And even after I sit through nearly three minutes of ads, and CartoonNetworkApp shows that the ads are over, whenever I go to the next episode, it shows me 30 seconds more of ads! I’m not sure if this is a glitch or if it’s intentional, but either way it should really be fixed. And my second problem: The episodes. I’m trying to catch up on my favorite show, and CartoonNetworkApp says I’ve watched all videos available, but even after almost a week, it still hasn’t given me any new episodes. And the show were talking about is Steven Universe, so CartoonNetworkApp should have more episodes available. The only other show I have on CartoonNetworkApp is Steven Universe Future, and I’ve already watched the available episodes of that as well. I’m still waiting to get more episodes to watch. Every day I check CartoonNetworkApp to see if I FINALLY get more episodes, but… nope. Please also fix this problem, I need the other episodes!!!

by OfficialTrentHesse

As I do get on CartoonNetworkApp a lot to watch the regular show I still have no idea why there’s not an option to be able to watch your favorite show on CartoonNetworkApp in full screen, would love to watch my shows on CartoonNetworkApp in full screen, please make there an option for full screen. Also after watching all the episodes that are out for the show, that show should be updated immediately and there should be different episodes for that show so I don’t go back into CartoonNetworkApp and see the same episode that I previously just watched for that show. Also when I get into CartoonNetworkApp the show that I watch immediately plays and I miss some of the episode because of it and when ever I click the show that I want and all the episodes pull up an episode also starts playing immediately and I also miss some of that Episode as well it get frustrating when this happens. Please make the changes and update CartoonNetworkApp .

Hello Cartoon Network I’m a kid that really loves CartoonNetworkApp and watches it all the time. I love to watch Steven universe. I heard they made a movie so I watched it and I was confused so I started from season 1 to season 5. I realized I had almost finished a episode that I didn’t remember so I tried to watch it. I went through a 3 minute ad and it started playing it from the end . I couldn’t rewind it so I watched the end. Then, it played the next episode and it then just froze and the screen turned black; and then CartoonNetworkApp crashed. I tried to turn off CartoonNetworkApp and go back on but what I did never worked. I tried it several times and it just kept on crashing and freezing. I then realized it was a glitch so I went to tell you this so you can try to fix it. Also, something about the adds, I started a episode, the add was 30 seconds long, and then it turned to 3 minutes long. I think the ads are too long and it makes everyone’s experience boring because they are waiting too long. I think CartoonNetworkApp should only be 30 seconds or 1 minute long. And, there is a glitch when I heard two ads playing at the same time and made me confused what the advertising was saying. Those are all the glitches that need to be fixed that I could find. I hope you can fix them.

Hi Cartoon Network, I love your shows like Adventure Time, Uncle Grandpa, We Bare Bears, The Powerpuff Girls, and especially Steven universe. I got CartoonNetworkApp because it said full episodes and I thought that was guaranteed to be great. And it is, but i am having some concerns. I started watching Steven Universe, season one, and it’s amazing. I’ve finished it, and I want to move on to season two, and three, and four and all of them. So i thought I could find what I was looking for on CartoonNetworkApp. I went to the Steven Universe show, but I found that it does not provide all the episodes to season two, three, four, or five. I was disappointed because I really like this show, and I wanted to start at season two, episode one. Not episode seventeen.... so was I doing something wrong, or did i press something I wasn’t supposed to, because I was really hoping to get all the episodes to watch. Just wanted to confirm that CartoonNetworkApp is helpful but doesn’t give you all the episodes you can watch. Could you maybe provide all the episodes? Thanks, and have a good day.

I mostly like CartoonNetworkApp. I use it on the TV and on my phone! There’s only one difference between the on my TV and on this phone! There’s no subscription on TV! Buuuuuuuut...there is a subscription on my phone! So I think you should either put a subscription on both or a subscription on neither... but not a subscription on One and not a subscription on the other. And I love Cartoon Network.(just saying) I love it so much! So I got CartoonNetworkApp on my phone because I thought I wanted it on my phone because I got another TV and I really like Cartoon Network soooo... guess what? IIIIII got it on my phone!yeah! Duh duh Duh duh Duh duh duh! Everybody dance now! Sorry it’s just really good that I got it on my phone. But then.. I was watching the new show thunderCats roar and then I already watch some of it on the TV and then the episode I was watching on the TV I needed to watch the rest of The episode I was on but then it’s like oh you need a stupid subscription so I think you should get rid of the subscription! So that’s my review and please respond to it! It would be Awesome if you did!

Hi, Cartoon Network I am a HUGE fan of your shows like teen titans go, unikitty (my fav 😍), etc. However, Their are some shows I think you sould take away. I know some people love them, but 4 year Olds are finding bad shows on your acc. Like the teen show Total Drama. My 7 year old brother ALMOST watched that show. Thank god I grabbed the remote. 😌 Let me give you a review what total drama is about. It shows men half naked, snotty girls, and swears. But I'm very greatful you made a new one were there kids and do kids stuff (the new kid show is total dramarama). Also, "the amazing world of gum ball?" More like the GROSS world of gum ball! One day I was at a hotel, and nothing was on but the amazing world of gum ball, I watched it, and it was showing this pink triangle licking his lips! GROSS 🤢!!! Nothing kids sould see. Thanks for reading and have an awesome day!! 😊☀️

CartoonNetworkApp is amazing and I love how I can finally watch all my favorite shows like we bare bears and amazing of gumball and adventure time on the go but personally I love CartoonNetworkApp and I would recommend it to any one but the only thing is that one day when I was on direct tv and I was searching up Naruto shows I found 2 Naruto shows and Both of them were on Cartoon Network and one of them were Naruto shipdun and Naruto and the 6 ninjas or something like that but anyway my point is to add those 2 Naruto shows to CartoonNetworkApp and if you do that I well give CartoonNetworkApp a 5 star review make another review saying how great this is and recommend CartoonNetworkApp to my friends especially 3 of my friends named Eli, Jacob and Kelly because they love Naruto shows! So please add those 2 shows to CartoonNetworkApp and please respond to this message about this thing but anyway amazing app thanks for it, keep up the good work and add those 2 Naruto shows! THANKS FOR THE AMAZING APP!!!!!!!

I’m really rather pleased with CartoonNetworkApp. Being away from home makes it hard for me to watch and catch up on episodes, so having an app like this is really useful.

For one thing, the commercial time is less than that of a regular broadcast which is definitely a bonus. The shows, once you get past the first “playlist” generated for you, are easy to access and view. Not to mention that everything is really well designed and easy to manage.

A few of the settings like the feedback portion of CartoonNetworkApp are like wonky, but I don’t think they really inhibit anything.

I think the biggest drawback would be the fact the somethings are excluded. Shorts like Villainous aren’t on CartoonNetworkApp and a large sum of episodes for some cartoons are missing. I’m not really sure if the episodes get cycled every now and then, though if they are that would definitely help with the missing concern issue.

Overall CartoonNetworkApp is really great and makes watching shows much easier to accomplish then if I had constant access to a television. Especially considering I get to pick which episodes I want to watch, instead of what is being aired. Not to mention it’s a lot easier to keep up with shows now as new episodes come out. The perk of not having to worry that teen titans go will probably come on next is also very very nice.

Hi people who made CartoonNetworkApp CartoonNetworkApp is amazing because now I don’t have to wait until 7:00 on the weekends but when I logged in today both on my phone and on the tv I did it on my phone just to see if it worked and it did but when I finished about 5-7 episodes it had a internet connection problems or had just had some problems with something so I tried it with my phone and it and it had the same problem as well and it wasn’t connected so I tried logging out and logging in because I think they had the same problem but when I tried it again it still had the same problem I try restarting CartoonNetworkApp on the tv and my phone and I even going to try deleting it and re downloading it when I’m done with this but I doubt it and the only thing that works was the first not episode (which that didn’t work either) so can you fix it soon I’m going to rush you either so yea

This is about ninjago!
I love Ninjago and I’m sure they’re people out there who also do! People that I know are super happy that ninjago season 10 and 11 are up there since it’s not on Netflix for us! I really hope you guys put season 12 up there!!!!! I love CartoonNetworkApp! If you want to watch a show and you can’t find it, just go on Cartoon Network! It’s a little glitchy for me but I don’t mind because I’m super glad to be able to watch stuff. Please add season 12 and etc. At first I thought CartoonNetworkApp was just annoying since it didn’t let me watch all the episodes but once I logged in, it was like a dream! Once again, I love CartoonNetworkApp, please add ninjago season 12, and if CartoonNetworkApp goes away, I’ll be so sad! Thank you for letting me able watch my favorite shows! It means a lot especially since we’re in quarantine! Have an wonderful day or night! 👍😃

I was so excited that I could watch the fifth season of Steven Universe since it isn’t available on any other streaming service but CartoonNetworkApp is horrible. It auto plays episodes as soon as CartoonNetworkApp opens and it is never an episode I want to watch. It starts every episode with some ads, which is fine that’s how most tv provider streaming apps work, except I didn’t want to watch whatever is playing and now I have to sit through ads that I can’t exit. Once I finally find the episode I do want to watch (with some other episode playing in the background) and start the episode I have to sit through more ads. I handled this for most of the season I wanted to watch, but then when there were 5 episodes left in the season the episodes stopped playing. I’d get an error message saying it can’t play that episode so it starts counting down to playing the next episode (I don’t want to watch the next episode). Of course, that episode can’t play either so it enters an endless loop of error pages and I have to exit CartoonNetworkApp . Now nothing will play on any of my devices: I either get error pages or loading screens that never load. I can’t imagine how kids are able to deal with CartoonNetworkApp.

The setup CN uses for CartoonNetworkApp is awful. The automatic playing of shows is a waste of time and data. That feature needs to have an on/off button. The same with the “new for you” feature. I can search for my own shows, please don’t put it up in my face every time I open CartoonNetworkApp . The organization of shows is terrible. Why does the most recent episode play first? If I’m starting a new series I’m going to start with episode 1, season 1. Why do I want the most recent episode play every time I watch the series? It’s basically spoiling the last episode. Smart move there CN. Once the most recent episode starts playing you have to scroll down to find the correct episode and start playing it. Most likely you will get more ads and even more likely CartoonNetworkApp will crash or freeze. Then you have to start the whole process over again, wasting more data and time. Lastly why isn’t there a vertical orientation? Having everything horizontal is tedious unless you’re watching a show.

This is not a review for CartoonNetworkApp it’s for the network , I couldn’t find any other way to contact you but I’ve been a loyal fan of CN since I was little , it’s all me and my brother watched after school and in the mornings but the only thing that would make it better is to bring back all the shows that got pulled off the channel , I remember when you had to adapt the channel for younger viewers and pulled samurai jack and all the OG shows off . I remember when you had that time where you had tons of new shows but they got shut down before the second season . I understand that it’s not as easy as it sounds but perhaps you could make a co channel that shows all the oldies of your channel . Thank you for listening and I just wanna thank u for all the years entertainment and nostalgia
