Watching shows and films96%
Been watching a lot of movies and shows that I missed never on an other app with out an extra payment of some sort it’s really nice to watch new movies and see people that I haven’t seen in awhile...
Live events3%
Even though I’m a Prime subscriber, I cannot get the hockey game on my phone. If this is what I have to look forward to this season, I won’t be renewing this season🤬 Even trying to submit a review...
Family and kids1%
My kids love Steve and Maggie, particularly the specials, but when the show ends, instead of keeping it with the same show, it likes to play random stuff which usually enrages them.
