USA Network Reviews

Edit: I am struggling with USANetwork even more than before. This is a terrible app and needs to be fixed. It is constantly buffering, won’t let me watch a full show without me having to reboot everything (app, phone, Chromecast, internet...) just to watch an entire show from start to finish. I took a star away because of the constant frustration that just keeps getting worse. Don’t download unless you enjoy being frustrated.

This is not a good app. It freezes regularly in the middle of a show and I have to stop casting and then recast it and find my place in the episode of the show I’m watching. In order to get back to where I was, I have to sit through more commercials. I have to restart USANetwork often and I’ve had to reboot my phone a few times just to make it work. There is no other connectivity issue with any other apps and devices I use when USA is acting up. I have found that the NBC apps are all pretty much the same way. They’re pretty terrible, although so far, USA doesn’t seem to be as bad as the NBC app. So yeah, unless you are really into a show on USA (like me) then it’s not really worth it.

How on earth in this day and age can this level of constant buffering and pixelating issues happen!?!
Whether watching on my iPhone or Roku, the same problem persists. And worst of all, USA tries to blame my internet provider! Sorry USA, your app is the ONLY streaming app I have this problem with. The problem is on YOUR end, YOU need to fix your crappy, buggy app!
Trying to watch LIVE programming is the worst. Everything plays find for 5-10 minutes, then the picture pixelates and goes black; when the program comes back on it jumps back 15-20 seconds and replays that portion of the show/commercials.
Absolutely beyond ridiculous and unacceptable. But when it’s the only way to watch certain shows, what do you do?

So wasn’t able to be home to watch a show I like to watch that is on same time every week without fail but downloaded this stupid USA Network app to watch and the live stream isn’t live at all not one but the show I wanted to watch started at 6pm and is 3 hours long and then went to watch on USANetwork and the show was going live on my cable box ( had my fiancé look to see if it was on live on the cable box and it was ) but the USA Network app said it didn’t start till the show ends on cable….. how is that live tv!?!?!? It’s not one bit so I will be contacting the company of the show I watch to let them know why I won’t be watching one of their shows anymore because I don’t want anything to do with NBC Universal at all. Thankfully Fox network has another night that I will now watch instead of both. And it may seem a little weird that I say I will let the company know I’m one that is on a council for the product which I have ways to contact so hopefully NBC Universal looses the contract and the go to a much more reliable source than NBC UNIVERSAL

NBC’s heavily-advertised move of their Premier League matches from Peacock to USA Network has been awful. USANetwork (as does the NBC app) regularly crashes or hangs up…as it’s doing as I write this review during the Everton-Brighton match…leading to inevitable and repeated Apple TV reboots. I’ve seen as many “An Error Occurred. Something has gone wrong. Please try restarting your app and trying the live stream again” messages as I’ve seen goals this weekend. Two match days in and it’s clear NBC/USA Network weren’t prepared to handle the demand for the content they continue to monopolize in the U.S. Pleas fix asap.

I used to have no issues with USANetwork, but I ended up deleting it due to having no need for it for a while. When I re-downloaded it today, it is AWFUL. It won’t let me log into my TV provider so as to watch anything. Regardless of how many times I press ‘link to television provider’ or whatever it says, NOTHING happens. The only way it responds is if I click on the option to make some account with NBC Universal that allows to watch THREE WHOLE EPISODES (*gasp*!) which isn’t happening. Why would I do that when I could access everything if this stupid app would just work correctly?

I’m bummed that there are so many great shows on USANetwork that I want to watch but I can’t. I’ve tried safari, iPad, chrome, android/Apple phone, Roku, Apple TV and several different locations with WiFi but USANetwork either doesn’t load the show or buffers forever, or opens then crashes, or gives the “sorry try again later” or stops halfway through watching, buffers, crashes.. so many bugs it’s not even worth the shows on it. Hopefully there is a huge update soon considering how many people are giving this same feed back, that and the millions of other apps who seem to have it figured out.

USANetwork is buggy and near useless. Constantly needs the device to be reset before it will work lay again. Confusing and illogical sidebar menu. It includes multiple feeds, but none ever work properly or for more than a few minutes. Maybe work on getting on facet right before trying to cram in an all inclusive format? I only use this to watch Premier League matches, that were formerly on NBCSN…that app was great. Way to drop the ball NBC….USA app is total trash and needs a complete restart in every aspect. Blow it up and start over. There’s really no fixing something with a build this poor.

Can’t watch MONK at all, doesn’t show up on the search!! And for PSYCH, it’s just a few TRAILERS!! Thanks for NOTHING USA AND PEACOCK!! What a shame, those are two of the shows that helped make the USA network what it was and is. Not anymore, let’s just abandon it to PEACOCK, which isn’t for me, not worth paying for, since I don’t watch ABC for anything. Yes, I watch it’s sister stations for a few things, like most of us, but it’s never been my go to station.
I get it, restructuring is the thing, and if DISNEY wants to have people pay for its service, some will, but some of us won’t, not for a few shows, and when money is going for more important bills, PEACOCK/DISNEY is one of those networks/companies that my money can’t be allotted to. No offense guys, but a girl needs to pay rent to keep a roof over her families heads over tv.

Recently I’ve been experiencing issues with USANetwork not recognizing my cable provider. I’m able to work through that by in linking and reconnecting my provider credentials. When watching the live stream in portrait orientation, the picture shows full width. When I turn it to landscape mode, the picture is cut off on the sides, rather than the video showing with the bars at top and bottom, so I lose the outer edges. My main issue is with playback. I have had the live feed freeze, video freeze with audio continuing, and the video no longer playing over hdmi when watching using my iPad connected to tv. I know it’s USANetwork because other apps work using the exact same setup. I even updated USANetwork and tried again with no luck. Audio works fine when using the dock connector, video does not.

Ever since the update moving other networks under the NBC umbrella, the apps have been rendered useless. First Bravo, now USA. Even the NBC app itself. I love the idea of everything in one place-that’s pretty awesome. But what’s the point when none of them can be unlocked? Can try to link and unlink tv cable provider and delete and reinstall all three apps all I want, apps still don’t work (I either get a generic error or an error stating I don’t have the channel in my cable package). The only thing that worked was when someone from the help desk loaded my nbc profile that I had to create with credits when I inquired about the issues with the Bravo app. Was hoping by the time I used up the credits, the error would be fixed. Unfortunately, that was wishful thinking. Please fix, otherwise, these shows/networks are completely unwatchable for myself and for many others.

Before a month or so ago USANetwork was amazing. Recently I’ve been having trouble with captions not syncing with the words. Also every commercial break causes me to lose my “casting” connection and have to 1) restart the show, then 2) watch the first commercials 3) recast which which starts me at the beginning, only to then 4) approximately scrub to where I was, wait through commercials again, and start at that time. If I didn’t love suits and queen of the south I wouldn’t go through the trouble. I’ve started to resent my favorite shows just because this is so annoying. Before it worked perfectly and would have been a 5/5 star

I only use USANetwork with casting to my TV. The support is very buggy and makes the viewing experience challenging. Here are some of the behaviors:
1. When going back to the home screen, the ringer/phone volume overrides USANetwork ’s set volume which sets the volume on the TV. If my phone is set to max volume, it will proceed to set my TV to the max volume as well. Opening and closing USANetwork should not change the cast devices volume.
2. Sometimes USANetwork cannot play the video when casted. This can happen if you repeatedly connect/disconnect to the cast device. I need to kill USANetwork and then re connect everything again.
3. It’s really difficult to skip to a part of a show due to the way the commercials work. One time USANetwork refused to set me to the middle of the show where I left off and I had to watch commercials like 3 times in a row.

The USA Network app has a life expectancy of about 4 weeks on Apple TV before it only displays a single, flat, white line in the middle of a black screen, when you bring it up. It has to be deleted and reinstalled at that point, but at least it doesn’t lose your progress in shows that you are watching, when you restart it. This has happened to me so many times I expect it. It’s a frustrating experience, and I hope they hire some software writers who can fix this recurring issue.

I really want to watch professional wrestling on my iPad. However, the USA app and the USA website on Safari have serious problems. USANetwork forces me to watch the live network zoomed in, so I miss nearly half of the image. Sometimes I enjoy zooming in, when it’s an option, but not when it’s required. My previous fix to this problem was to load the USA website on Safari, but now that doesn’t even work at all. I’m a beta user for iPad OS 13, so hopefully that’s my main problem. Either way, I really enjoy WWE, and I enjoy my iPad for media consumption, so hopefully I can watch WWE on USA on my iPad correctly soon. Thankfully the FOX app is well put together, so I can at least enjoy Friday Night Smackdown in its proper aspect ratio.

I like USANetwork on my phone, but trying to play USANetwork on my TV is a different story. I have an iPhone and I never have any issues trying to watch USANetwork on my phone. Whenever I use my fire stick so I can watch the show on TV, USANetwork will just sit loading. It might also say “no authority” even though I have an Xfinity account, which again will work perfectly fine on my phone. I’m not sure why this happens but it is extremely annoying. Other than that since I can still watch the shows on USANetwork on my phone, I still rated 3 stars.

The USA app has several now-predictable issues, especially when I use Chromecast: 1)The live feed doesn’t appear on my phone 2) nor the tv, even though the tv keeps toying with me and says “Ready To Cast”. I have to burp USANetwork by going to More, then Home, and then back to Live; 3) In Live the channel guide displayed on my phone freezes on the time and spot when the Live feed starts, and will not move, even after watching a couple of hours; 2) The Closed Captioning does not work about 80% of the time— this might be fixed by burping USANetwork : by stopping and restarting the casting, or the live feed to my phone, or going briefly to another channel offered such as E! or Bravo and try the CC there. If it works there then it may carry over back to USA. I’m hard of hearing and rely on the CC to watch USA, but it’s a crap shoot what and whether something’s going to work. (Note: emailing NBC per the instructions on the accessibility tab has yielded no responses.)

Honestly USA is one of the best cable programs. There are days that you all upset me when you cancel a program like Covert Affairs or when it is time to close a chapter like Suits & open up a new beginning like Pearson !!! I wish there was too bad that Suits is closing down its curtains !!! Great to hear about Season 5 on Queen of the South hopefully you all can give us another 5 years or more !!! other show I miss are satisfaction with Stephanie Szostak & rush with actor Tom Ellis the list can go on of shows that I miss 😢

So I love binge watching Chrisley knows best and I just it works perfectly for me and recently I need to update it so that’s what I’m gonna do thank you so much USA for everything you’ve done making Queen of the South Cristly know best asked what my favorite on so I love binge watching Chrisley knows best and I just it works perfectly for me and recently I need to update it so that’s what I’m gonna do thank you so much USA for everything you’ve done making Queen 👑 of the South and Chrisley knows best

They give you free credits to watch stuff and it was so fun and exciting. I could watch all the new chucky episodes that made me get chills from watching it. I LOVE THIS SERIES. Can’t wait for the next episodes in season 2 because there’s a big cliffhanger with Andy the dolls. I Also want to see more about the other main characters. Thank you USA app for letting me watch his series. I’m glad I found it.

I love USANetwork but every time I start watching one of my favorite shows it will pop up and say error has occurred and when I hit the ok button it cuts me off and I have to wait a few minutes before I can open it back up other than that I love it! How can I get it to stop saying that?

I really want to give USANetwork a 5 star review but the live tv section doesn’t want to work at all. I did everything it asked me to do and nothing is working. I put my location on and connected tv provider and signed in and it doesn’t want to show live tv. I ask the developers to please fix this issue ASAP. Maybe getting rid of the location permission will fix this. No other channel I use asked for location. They all just asked for a provider and immediately connected. Please get rid of the location needed. Will update as soon as USANetwork is fixed!

I’ve downloaded, re-downloaded it over six times and I still cannot use my Tv Provider. I have watched the show Eyewitness once, and have started to rewatch it before the update. The update has rendered USANetwork useless and a waste of time. I just want to rewatch a good show, and start watching others, but I can’t do anything for the moment being. Every update has made USANetwork worse, I’ve heard, and what I’ve heard has started to come true. Please fix USANetwork so everyone can enjoy their favorite shows once more.

Just started watching Queen of the South. I finally finished Seasons 1 thru 3. I go to catch up on Season 4 and was highly disappointed to see that the first 4 episodes have already expired and the 5th was set to expire. This season just pretty much started so I don’t understand why these episodes would be deleted so quickly. Is money that much of a priority to you? I refuse to pay to watch those episodes. And please stop the ads!!!! I have to give Netflix all the credit for having no ads whatsoever!!! I pay enough per month on the cable bill.

The thing that annoys me the most about USANetwork is when trying to watch Live TV in landscape orientation on my iPad Pro 11-inch, the image is zoomed in and the sides are cut off, and I can’t zoom it out. It looks fine in portrait orientation, but who in their right mind watches TV on their iPad in portrait orientation? It has been like this for MONTHS, and each update on USANetwork doesn’t fix this fundamental interface issue. Let me watch Live TV in landscape orientation and be able to see all of the image. That’s all I ask.

The content of USA is great. Let’s get that out of the way first. My issue is with USANetwork itself. It looks TERRIBLE on my iPhone 11. I’m unable to pinch zoom to fill the screen. It stays forever a small box. My other issue is where USANetwork doesn’t play the content I’ve been consuming after exiting USANetwork and then coming back in. I have to hard reset USANetwork and wait for it to load again. Fix these issues, and you’ll compete with the other TV apps out there.

I don’t why, as I have never had a streaming app do this, but USANetwork will do weird stuff. Sometimes it will simply stop playing video completely even though it will start playing fine if I close then restart it. Other times it will rewind live video—sometimes once, sometimes multiple times in the same spots. Network connection and speed are always fine and the device is always updated...simply an app issue

Awful app. Live shows are a hit or miss. Really frustrating

Watching USA on fubotv, why, with their dvr, i can skip your insufferable ads, because of which, no beautiful old castles are shown, good going greedy NBC
