    This app is wonderful and we love the content in our family. We cast to our tv and could not be happier. The only reason why this doesn't get 5 stars is because there is no way to set the app to turn off/end/stop casting at the end of an episode! It autoplays forever and I can't find any way to make it stop other than sit there and hope I can stop casting fast enough before the next episode starts and the meltdown begins. Please add the ability to turn off autoplay!!

    Very convenient app, but could use some work. First is the layout. Having it mandatory to use full screen doesn't make sense. Please allow portrait mode so that it's easier to cast. With that said, the casting will constantly disconnect from my phone. I just bought a Roku TV, and the app on it works a lot better than the Android version, so I guess I'll stick to that one. For those reviewing the Roku one, the Google Play store is not the avenue to do that. This is just for the Android version.

    I love the idea of this app, and it works well when viewing directly from a phone or tablet, but it only casts to my Chromecast or loads on my Firestick about 10% of the time. Additionally, after attempting to cast the app, I have to reboot my Chromecast before any other apps will properly cast. I have emailed customer support an have not reached a solution.

    Not designed for adults. The interface appears to be targeted at grade school children. It's simple, which is great for little kids. But it's too simplistic for adults. It only displays in landscape. No playlist options. It takes over your entire screen and makes it cumbersome to switch tasks quickly. I use it to cast video to our tv for my three young children, not watch in the app. The app isn't bad, it's just not convenient for adults to jump in and out or queue a playlist.

    My son (now 4) loves PBS and has learned a lot thanks to this app, especially since I can't get PBS in my city unless I pay for cable. Lately though, as of earlier this year though, I can't cast to my Chromecast live PBS without it crashing within five minutes. Seeing as it's the only app that crashes on my Chromecast, I would say it's the app and not the Chromecast. It's a shame, as I loved having the option for him to watch a rolling "tv channel" with programming for him with cycling shows.

    I love it when live TV works! But this is the second time, last time being a couple of years ago, that it WILL NOT LOAD. It will play the individual shows, but not live TV. Sometimes, it will eventually work. Most times, I have to figure something else out... & you don't wanna know what I've been through, and how I have to live now... prefer these educational, morally ethical shows over any others. Please fix it. Oh, and when I play individual shows they don't play in succession. dot's spot.
