WE tv Reviews

I watch a lot of shows on my iPhone at certain times. I have Fox apps, cbs, tnt, USA etc etc etc and even mtv app works better than this. Yours is horrible. Decided to give love after lock up a try so I downloaded WEtv instead of watching it on the direct tv app where I watched a few repetitive episodes. Beyond even WEtv function this app just absolutes SUCKSSS! I’m on episode 2 getting the EXACT same show as episode 1. Then go to episode 3 and wayyy way too many minutes of the same footage they showed on episode 1 and 2 is now repetitively re shown on later episodes like it is new content. Never seen this before from any network. I pray it’s not like that on your actual channel. You guys really need to work on this. I have so much patience and after painfully watching 3 “full” episodes and the astonishing disorganization of them with no chronological order of shows content.. not knowing if you missed certain things or why they keep showing 10 minutes of episode 1 in each proceeding episode, not even to mention the horrible tech glitches to watch this messily put together/edited show.. I’m about to say bye bye to this app and it can yet again stay irrelevant like before I found love after lock up.

In order to make this review, I have to put at least 1 star. But, NO stars is more appropriate. That’s how bad WEtv is. It’s the worst tv app I’ve ever experienced. I’ve never had so much trouble trying to watch my shows. It has no problem letting me sign in with a cable tv account, but after signing in, there is no content to watch bc the shows won’t load. Just pretends to load. When I HAVE been lucky enough to actually get a show to load and try to watch something in the past, it was extremely glitchy and had horrible blurry picture. Only seldom would I actually get to watch something with no issues on Roku. It seems to have gotten even worse recently. I don’t understand why WEtv hasn’t had the updates it needs. I would never recommend downloading WEtv on either phone or smart tvs or Roku. Just a waste of time and memory space.

WE is by far the worst TV Channel App I’ve ever used or should I say “tried to use!!” I’ve tried to watch what was currently playing LIVE as well as On Demand Shows that have already aired live, through my cable tv provider login. I have yet to be able to watch even a minute of one of the shows on this Network App. It continuously shows the circle going round and round, showing it’s buffering. There’s only been one incident where the show stopped buffering however I was then given an error message. I’ve tested my wifi box out with other similar apps so I know it’s not the speed of my internet. In enough words, don’t even waste your time downloading WEtv because it’s absolutely pointless. Personally I am extremely disappointed being as this is or “WAS” my favorite network. Please Please fix your app already!!!!

I tried to watch a show on WEtv while it was on live tv and there were glitches so bad that i gave up on trying to watch the show! The audio was going in and out on my iphone and to be sure it wasn’t my phone I signed in on my tv only for it to do the same thing! Now i have to wait a week until the new episode is released until i can actually watch it without the glitches. When it comes to rewatching an episode on demand, WEtv isn’t complete trash but for live tv, I do NOT recommend! I will be using my my tv provider app instead to stream this app because I just found out that it works 100% better. So heads up: IF YOU WANT TO WATCH A SHOW ON LIVE TV ON WEtv , DO NOT GET IT !!!!!!

I’m not understanding why every time I open WEtv & choose my show, it buffers for more than 5 minutes.. I have to close WEtv , clear it from background, and reopen it multiple times before it will load the episode, and when one episode ends, it takes almost 10 minutes to buffer before it loads the next episode.. It’s mildly infuriating.. I do have full service & full WiFi when this is happening so I know it’s not a connection to internet issue..

Worst streaming app I’ve ever downloaded and is a complete waste of device storage space! And more importantly, has absolute worst developers. I read 2 yrs of reviews and in 2 WHOLE years the developers haven’t managed to make WEtv consistently useable. We’re not asking for better content, we are just asking for the ability to use the freaking app.

I’ve been trying to watch the last 20 mins of a show for the past hour. Exactly what I said. WEtv force closes itself every freaking 2 mins. And when it’s reopened I have to watch the same 5 commercials again. Now I’m finally on the last 3-5 mins of the show and it’s starting to crash as soon as the show is loaded. *Apple pls delete this worthless app from WEtv store. 🙏🏾

Can’t play videos. Initially, I thought it was due to the iOS update, but that’s not the case. I’ve deleted and reinstalled WEtv , still no correction. Please fix as I’m trying to watch a few programs. Thanks!

Update: 2 years later…still running into streaming errors, where the show never loads. Wanted to watch Marriage Bootcamp for months.

Also, no updated content on WEtv , but the website has current programming. Would like to watch a show that is 6 episodes in, but WEtv is stick stuck on last year. Cannot mirror website bc the of this app browser. this app is ghetto compared to it’s competition. Get it together ppl.

When I try to log-in using my TV provider, it says the password/username is incorrect. I never have any problems using any other apps, as I use the same exact password/username to log-in.

Update: WEtv is still useless. I am deleting WEtv off my phone and TV. The developer clearly doesn’t care because, based on the comments, the problems have been consistent for 3+ years with no resolution. The update history shows several updates but nothing ever gets fixed. Now the streaming episodes don’t work and when I try to watch live tv I just get an error message. I can’t even enjoy my favorite shows.

All I want to do is watch trash tv for 40 minutes and WEtv is constantly having issues. Ive been trying to get it to work for 4t5 minutes now. Deleting, restarting, blah blah blah. I go to my tablet and same crap. Other issues I’ve experienced are WEtv downloading two icons on my fire stick that i need to switch between in the middle of episodes to get them to work, making me force stop WEtv constantly to finish an episode, not letting me sign in and taking me to the same page over and over or showing a blank page. WEtv is complete crap but of course i need it if i ever want to watch an episode on we tv.

WEtv is quite possibly the worst streaming app I have ever used. If the constant commercial breaks wasn’t annoying in of themselves; add the same one repeated 4 times in a row every commercial break, the commercial suddenly starting smack in the middle of a segment, 30 seconds of the show boom another commercial, and once the break ends, the show doesn’t pick up where it left off, or it starts on a portion of the show you already watched. It’s like WE found the worst developers on the market with the goal of making it impossible for viewers to watch a show/series.

What is the problem with WEtv? Try to view things on here is so so frustrating. As you sit there watching it you feel like I’ve already seen this part before what is going on, only to find out that it keeps repeating the same segment I've just watched.
Then when I try to rewind, it just keeps going either back to the very beginning, or it just goes straight to more commercials that I’ve just watched.
Get that figured out and this could become a great app at Five Stars.

After I watched one episode of Love after Lockup at my friends house, I was instantly hooked! I decided to download WEtv to watch the episodes on my train ride to work the day after they premiere and I could not be happier with my decision. Easy to use, especially for a technology amateur mother of 3 (I know y’all can relate)! Can’t wait for Life after Lockup.

I watched the web version of this app and when it goes to an add it starts to freeze. People are blaming WEtv , but it’s not just WEtv at all. It’s best to cast/watch through your cable’s mobile option or WatchAtt or whatever other options you have. But the this app site and app both just have issues but it appears that it’s on this app not WEtv developers fault.

What casting? It would be a great app if the casting to the tv actually worked like it does on my other tv station apps. What’s up with the tv casting NOT working on the WE tv app?

Update: WEtv now works & I can watch the shows broadcast on it. Whatever you did to fix it, congratulations! It worked!

Ive connected my spectrum cable to WEtv to watch it live when I’m on the go with my phone or on my Roku. Sometimes there is no sound. Or the sound goes in and out. It’s not any of my devices that have the issue it’s WEtv . It freezes a lot and it’s very annoying. Honestly pointless to use WEtv trying to watch shows live. But I can say I don’t have issues when I am watching a already aired episode on WEtv .

WEtv shuts down unexpectedly during commercials. When you try to go back into WEtv to resume the episode, it requires you to watch another commercial and then still goes back to the beginning of the episode. WEtv also shuts down completely every time the Zales commercial tries to play. It’s frustrating and makes you not even want to bother trying to watch shows on it.

Wth I have contacted my cable provider to make sure I have this channel I have checked parental controls I have emailed the people with WEtv nothing in return this is so irritating I hate paying for a channel that I can’t access because it is saying I don’t have a subscription even though I do has to be a bug because a friend tried to log in as well with a different cable company and they received the same error message and they to are a paid subscriber

You all have a serious problem connecting a paid cable service to link and watch shows. Atlantic broadband was changed to “breezeline” and for over one month when I click on it, it does absolutely nothing!!!!!! There is no easy way to report an issue because you all constantly have issues and no man power to fix them apparently.

WEtv is so frustrating it freezes out of no where. Casting is horrible, the show pauses if my phone goes to auto lock, I have to change the setting in my phone so the show can continue when it doesn’t freeze. It’s super annoying, why has this not been fixed? Why bother having an app when it doesn’t work properly?

It’s a shame how difficult WEtv is to watch since I would love to watch some of these shows. The shows keep buffering and when they do play they keep jumping back to a previously seen part of the episode. Sometimes I can’t even get to the end of the show because the episode plays only to a certain point and then jumps back. Frustrating and a waste of time.

No I'm not a ghost giving a round of applause or a rattlesnake, it is I -Dee Berry. The WE app has great shows I like (Growing Up Hip Hop Franchise, Hustle & Soul, etc), but every time I follow the prompts to login, I'm redirected to a blank page that's all white.

This has been a persistent problem and I'm tired of having to look them up online or watch them On Demand through my provider (too many commercials which is why I watch them online). Otherwise you guys take the episodes down too quickly so we can't binge. So fix those two things. Oh and LESS ADS! "We have to finance WEtv with ads" Horse Poo!! Figure out a different way!

I love when I can go back and watch shows I’ve missed. I also like watching them again because it’s great to see such a great show . Truly blessed and spoiled to have WEtv wouldn’t miss it for the world .

It would be great to be able to see what’s currently on without having to go to the live stream and if the schedule would extend past the end of the current day (based on my location)

I made sure I got this channel to watch some shows I love but you don’t have every season or in the right order and don’t have every episode in full episodes. How the heck am I suppose to show every season and every episode if you don’t have them in full. This is the only way I can watch them and I’m extremely disappointed. I love marriage boot camp and I can’t watch it all I’m super extremely disappointed

Never really had any problems with WEtv. And enjoy their live TV. But sometimes it takes hours to get it to logon but when it’s fixed I’m happy once again.

My favorite WE shows are easily accessible to watch. Especially convenient when episodes are missed on regularly scheduled television.

Love WEtv! User friendly and great entertainment!❤️ Several of my friends and colleagues are faithful to WEtv as well! I would request more content and that’s about it! Keep up the great work!

Half the shows I like I can watch the other half says key expired or I have to wait several days after it’s aired. I had no issues I month ago. I don’t know what happened

I basically use WEtv to catch up on shows I’ve missed. I do wish you could preview some upcoming episodes of shows with more then a one minute video of the next episode.

The episodes aren’t immediately available to watch. You have to wait until after they air on television; sometimes it’s days after the show has aired. Every time I try to log into my network provider it redirects me to a blank white screen. So aggravating. I just want to watch a few shows. & wayyyyyyy too many ads.
