Absolute TWiT

No way to sort by one show. It presents ALL shows in one long list, that now you must wade through. This is simply an RSS feed displayer. Nothing more.

This review is a reflection of the app, and not the TWiT network. This app does not work at all for me. Regardless of the show I choose, all I get is "Episode to play is unknown" and "Cannot get episode for , episode 0" errors.

Logo doesn't match, do I have the wrong app? Installed on Note8. Selected the Live tab (show was off the air) to see the live chat, it has said "please wait" for 5 minutes. I don't know if that is because the show was over or??

App broken looks like it's not being kept updated!!!! Don't waste your time downloading.

I use this handy little app almost every day. It has not been updated for several years so some features no longer work. If you just want a small app to watch live and join the chat room, this is it. If you want more then buy something else.

It doesn't let you go back through the entire library of episodes. It only offers the "podcast" published episodes, which is like ten or twenty back. I want the website's ability to choose ANY OLD EPISODE no matter how old (if the website offered bookmarking where you left off, there would be no need for any app). Without this feature, this app offers nothing that Pocketcasts already doesn't do better. But to be fair, this app is very smooth and well made. Five stars once ALL episodes become choosable

I really enjoyed Twit Pro until it was no longer supported as it provided all the features I needed. This app is focused on live streaming first and on demand listening last. It doesn't have notification bar controls and insists on continuing to play audio during phone calls. So when I use this app on my phone, I have to miss calls as I can't stop audio playback in time to then answer the call. Seriously not designed for phone use. Would be best on a tablet only. Also missing favorites option. WTF?!

Twit pro was great. Suddenly no support. WTF! This App crashes. Starts and stops like a poltergeist is hitting buttons. Won't shut up when the phone rings. UI is amateurish and confusing. Can't tell if a show is downloaded or not. Leo, get your money back and let us go back to something that works.

It doesn't even show the shows I've downloaded. It freezes every single time and I have to force stop the app then it works for a couple minutes then freezes again. The UI is awful. The shows are not organized efficiently. The best that worked flawlessly was 'Twit Pro" but unfortunately is no longer supported, forcing me to search for an alternative. I thought this app was a good alternative but it is very badly designed with too many issues. So Uninstalling! BTW I'm using the latest android on a LG-G4.

Need serious update before recommending to others. Live will not play even on audio only setting. Playback of downloaded episodes choppy and slow on HTC 816. Would support paid version if developer would take time to better develop this app.

This app used to work with a few bugs. Now you can't even get the shows to load and you try to navigate and the app crashes. Same issues are occurring on Galaxy S5 and S7.

On my s6 i cant go full screen unless rotate screen is turned on and i turn the phone sidewards . There should be an option to download podcast to take on the go and not just current one. Also should be able to delete already watched podcast manually

This app the the most unusable app on the market that I have come across. Twit pro had everything and worked perfectly. Why was support for twit pro ended. I think Leo is trying to crash the twit network.

Was looking for a replacement for Twit Pro to stream and down-load TWIT TV programs. This app is not it. I can't get update show, can't directly download a show which out streaming it first.

The WORST APP IN ALL GOOGLEPLAY! Can i give it Less Than One Star? No control over downloads. It's a giant mess.

The only good thing about this app is that it DOES play twit podcasts. It does not however, do it well. There is no refresh option that I could find. In audio mode, if your phone tips, it will detect and change the video aspect, interrupting the playback. I have constant trouble trying to get the playback to stop. If you exit the app, it will randomly start playing the already stopped audio in the background. I love twit but if this app were my only access to it, I would stop listening out of frustration.

Miss TWIT Pro so much right now. Can't choose old episodes to watch or download. I used to catch up when on the road. I used to look forward to half of the shows, had them running during work...now app is so annoying (if i tilt my screen at all, the damned thing starts playing!!!!!). I'm beginning to not care and about to delete the app and forget the show altogether. Leo, what have you done?

Wow they discontinued Twit Pro today and think people will like junk like this? I will pay the get it back because now i cant listen anymore.

I installed the app it worked for a while, then it wouldn't load the live stream video. It just says please wait. The other app worked great, very disappointed.

I really wanted to use this app, but it causes my Moto X (2nd gen) to crash at times and does not perform consistently at any time. I used TWiTPro and was always very happy with it. Now I'm looking for a replacement, but Absolute TWiT is not it. I have never been able to get live audio to work even after going into settings and selecting the audio stream at the bottom of the list. Now that they have redesigned the regular web site, I will just be using that on my phone.

A calendar schedule would be nice on what to watch. I also had to uninstall and reinstall to get it to add the last episode of TWiT from Sunday.

Basically updated 2 years ago. Obviously dev has no desire to maintain this app either. No Chromecast support=fail. Have no desire to watch on my phone.

Where is twit pro??still not fixed audio does not keep up with video very choppy hard to watch like I said where is twit Pro

This app is slow and buggy. It doesn't quit when a phone call comes in. Just keeps playing and makes it very difficult to answer a call.

Used this wonderful app till it died on all my devices. Won't load any streams or episodes. Going through withdrawls.

So why didn't' Leo do this?. All the feeds right under your thumb. It even downloads the show''s file to your SD card for off-line listening.

The app dedicates the top 3rd of the screen for video making the user interface clunky. It will auto play video when you select a show making it laggy. And when you leave the app and come back to it. It restarts the episode and re-downloads it.

There is no way to stop playback from the app, I had to use force stop. It's possible that you can use the headphone remote but honestly, I uninstalled it before I could try that, mainly because of the following scenario that made me realise this app is absolute tripe: I had been listening to a show, and decided to return a phone call. Since I had my headset on, I went to the dialer and and made the call. Every other media playback app I have used will mute itself respectfully when the user of the phone is on a call. That after all is the sensible thing to do for an app, the guest on a host device - a phone, who''s purpose in life is to allow users communicate. But not this piece of absolute garbage. No this app decided to keep playing, and send the podcast down the phone to my caller. To add insult to injury, I went to the app, and found there was no stop button. As I'm using android kit kat, I was left with having to locate the app in the settings app, so I could then force quit the app, all whilst trying to placate the person I was calling, DO NOT INSTALL THIS APP. If the app author is reading this, take it off the store. You should be ashamed of yourself

As soon as I opened it, it started downloading shows until it got to "the giz wiz" then forced closed and that is all it will do now.

Not ready for prime time. It hangs when playing the live stream. Despite selecting Audio only, when listing the episodes it starts playing video. It keeps playing in the background without controls.

You see a list of shows, click a show and the most recent starts playing with back catalog showing beneath. I don't want that, I want it to start playing when I select an episode. If I pause the video in landscape, turn it so I can select a different episode, the video starts again. This is a mess.

It doesn't let you go back through the entire library of episodes. It only offers the "podcast" published episodes, which is like ten or twenty back. I want the website's ability to choose ANY OLD EPISODE no matter how old (if the website offered bookmarking where you left off, there would be no need for any app). Without this feature, this app offers nothing that Pocketcasts already doesn't do better. But to be fair, this app is very smooth and well made. Five stars once ALL episodes become choosable

TWiT Pro was superior in almost every way. The new interface is a major step backwards, every little action interrupts playback (even just switching screen orientation), and video isn't even locked to the correct aspect ratio during playback. I don't understand why the app was changed so much when TWiT Pro worked almost perfectly. This new version is so bad I may stop using it altogether.

Poorly coded and designed. I found out first hand why the ratings were at 3.8 and falling. Removed.

Wow! A really nice simple app! I used it to watch Ham Nation "live" tonight...(the "Flowsoft 512" option worked best for me on my rural way too slow Verizon DSL line.) One suggestion, though. .the app needs an "exit" button...or at least I couldn't find it. Thanks for the app!

I hate using this. Give me back the app I used before. Just plain twit app to play audio twit. I factory reset phone and this is only option.

Rotating the screen stops the podcast, which seemingly has to reload. What's with that? Can select a podcast only in portrait mode. App gives no indication when it's loading its buffer, so you can't tell if it's working. These problems make this app frustrating to use.

Turning screen on and off stops and starts audio... :-(

Doesn't let me click on links.keeps falling out of chat room.Liked version One better. Rather use my phone app then this crummy one for tablet. Go back to drawing board.

After I turn it off it comes back on a little later. Have to use force stop. Playing live on Nexus5x. What happened to the simple live only app that just worked. I use Beyond Pod for podcast. Just want a simple live player, with no feeds or chat room.
