The CW - Latest Quality Issues
Android

Worse streaming app have used. Bandwidth is horrible, likely why it hangs and crashes between episodes. Then, throw a plethora of the same add every 6 to 8 minutes with 5 minutes of add. Local network television was never this bad. Hope someone else picks up the show/s or suffer through this poor excuse of an app.

Great app. The only problem is that the Chrome Cast doesn't work. Every time I try, it doesn't work. My internet and TV are fine. This is the only app that doesn't Chrome Cast.

Too many ads
I literally had to watch EIGHT ADS to start a show. I'd so much rather pay for it but unfortunately that isn't an option. Oh. Now it's mine ads. It's absolutely ridiculous at this point

It's alright. Still needs some work. Ads make no sense when they don't even show up ninety percent of the time. Why not put them all at the beginning or end of an episode so our suspension of disbelief remains intact? Is that not the point of the entire medium and overall collective of product? I don't mind commercials at all, it's just no one addresses the problem with ads or commercials being invasive. Try innovative. No app on Microsoft store. Overall streaming quality is great. Good start.

Never works
Every time I try to cast it or start watching it, the episodes never load and it freezes and lags all the time! I keep missing my shows and have to wait till they are release on another streaming app which takes months to a year! This is the worst app in history or streaming apps!

If there was an option for 0 stars, I would choose it
I have this app on my Roku TV and it is, by far, the worst app I have ever used for streaming. Which is embarrassing for the CW, they are too well known of a entity to have an app this terrible. The “continue watching” feature wasn't ever correct to begin with, but now it just disappeared entirely? So then you have to search for the show you were watching, and it doesn't save your spot in the episode if you were in the middle. So then you have to fast forward to the correct spot and watch multiple ad breaks to get there. Also, the ads are the most annoying I have ever encountered and they can't even play those properly without cutting them off mid-word. I cannot wait to finish watching this show so that I can never open this disgrace of an app again. Do better.

What is the Point?
What's the point of this app? Lol they only keep the previous 5 episodes or something. Not only that the library is small and the app is super slow. Just give it up and trash the app already. Everything on the app can be found, full seasons, on other platforms.

Do you like only watching ads?
My favorite part of the app is watching six ads in crystal clear HD. Then the app freezes. Then I back out. Select the show again. Watch two ads in crystal clear HD. Watch six more ads in crystal clear HD. Then the app freezes again. Repeat ad Infinitum. I'm glad I only have to use this to watch 100 Days to Indy for free. I'd be irate if I had to pay for this terrible service.
