Doesn't work on Nexus 6p with Android 7.1.2. I can only get it to work from a browser on my Windows PC or Chromebook. The 7/11/17 update works on my Nexus 6P. Thank you!! 7/12/17 Any way to hide the on screen phone controls. Very annoying when watching a movie.

As more people disconnect from cable you guys decided to make an AP that requires a cable subscription? Wake up. Guess what I'm going to do. Delete this AP and get your content elsewhere (because you refuse to provide your own subscription option).

Good app. Now it is not letting me watch my movies says I am not authorized. Uninstalled and reinstalled hope this works. If not you have some bugs to fix.

I do not like that if you choose a movie from the "On Demand' section and put that movie on your wish list for viewing at a later time, that you are given a one week expiration date before the movie is taken off the "On Demand", at which time you are locked out from viewing that movie until the movie becomes available again through the "On Demand" section. P.S. - I do not think too many teenagers are that interested in old movies, thus the(Teen) rating Goggle store gave this application.

I love TCM and their app. This app used to work flawlessly this past many years with my Samsung Galaxy S3, S4 and S6. But ever since I upgraded to Samsung Galaxy S8 plus it is no longer working and everytime I'm trying to watch a movie it never plays the movie and instead I get a message stating the App stopped working. Removing and reinstalling the app doesn't work. Please note my internet and cable provider had been the same these past many years. Please resolve the issue ...I really miss TCM APP.

Please fix...cleared cache and data... I installed and reinstalled still not working...this has been going on for months.....very disappointed...was working great for months and now nothing. I have contacted support 3 times with no reply...I am so sorry that Ted Turner sold his once great channel to TWC. YOUR APP SUCKS FIX IT OR DO AWAY WITH IT.

It works on some devices, but is still broken on many newer and older devices alike,( my Moto Z Play 1st gen, for example.) The app is still not on par with it's iOS counterpart, both in terms of app reliability and bug fixes, not even beginning to mention the differences in build quality. Patches usually take months to come about, and said patches are never guaranteed to work. Some issues, like the lack of fullscreen mode, or the forced orientation changes, have still yet to be fixed, and the simple act of opening a web stream can be a gamble, sometimes resulting in the indefinite "authorizing, please wait" bug. I love this service. Please, fix your app.

I used to think it was just my phone, but now I don't think so. Can't watch any movie for 10 minutes without the movie having to re-buffer, then the audio continues but the video is frozen. Not having this problem with any other video streaming app. PLEASE FIX!

App crashes e every time I click on a movie to watch. I get a message saying that the app has stopped and I should restart it. When I try to restart it I just get another message saying that the app needs needs closed. This has occurred continuously since I upgraded my phone OS to Android 7. The app is useless. I am a big TCM fan, and this is very frustrating. Clearing the cache and uninstalling​ and reinstalling app is no fix.

by D####:

I am a true classic movie buff and this is my app! The movies come out very clear on my tablet. TCM also gives you a certain amount of days to watch which movie you want to watch. Which is good for busy people. This app provides so much more...including history of classic movie stars, the history of the films, who directed the film and the list goes on and on. I recommend this app to any classic movie buff that still Loves them ol'movies. Please download and get to watching..!

Now constant message that anything playing live is "no longer available on my mobile device please choose something from on demand". Reminders never used to work, now they finally do only to give message above. Please return your app to its former glory. This used to be an amazing app, now it's mediocre at best, at least it isn't a complete giant tease like NBC app. Sad

I've been an avid supporter of TCM since childhood. Watching on mute with closed captions, alongside my step-grandfather who could reminisce every detail of his most beloved actors of his time. Today, I watch, on bell fibe TV, unmuted, sadly, needing closed captions. But living in Canada, I can't enjoy the knowledge of the greatest Era of TV (westerns, 40s to early 60s) so I ask (as I did with your wine collection) to bring TCM to all your xanadian viewers.
