Pricing
The new price isn’t just a joke, it’s a rip off and spitting in peoples faces.
Paramountal pivot
Does Netflix got down has hbo left you await 2 years for your next series. I say you climb the mountain to quality streaming service. Just one poor dude to another.
Rip off
They claim they offer student accounts for college students but as soon as you try to submit anything they deny you and refuse to make the account. I uploaded my student ID over 20 times and got denied, even after talking with an agent they refused to help me. I don’t understand why they offer something they don’t actually give, my student ID has my name, my college name, and date the ID expires. I don’t understand the issue, I think they just use it as a way to lure people to subscribe. Trying to tell me to go to support just proves that you are not reading my review BECAUSE I ALREADY DID.
Not the best app
Very glitchy app. Lots of lag and uneven broadcasts
Unskippable ads on ad-free plan
Despite paying for their top ad free plan it occasionally has ads that can’t be skipped. Hey Paramount, I am not interested in Yellowjackets so stop making me watch the ad! Also the navigation on aTV be can real confusing. The streaming quality is always excellent though.
Too many advertisement
I got “free” paramount plus’s with my Walmart subs. But the free means I have to watch 6’ if advertisement on a 20’ show!
Great
I love watching South Park
UFC replays are separate
Why would you not just play the whole event? I can’t believe it’s split like that. Not only that, but you know how long the fight lasted which ruins it!
Great content but poor reliability
Many great shows but I wish the app becomes more reliable. Poor syncing for logins on Chromecast. Episodes don’t drop or unlock as promised on the day. The app always seems to have a lag or eventually consistent syncing across systems
My name is Desiree
Can you bring back NCIS: Hawaii on Paramount+ please 🙏 💗💖💕❤️💞🩷💘💓
Bad
App requires an update to use, but there’s no update available… so I can’t use the app at all
App :(
Great Movies but the App on TV is terrible…. Super glitchy
….
I pay for no commercials and i get commercials sometimes. Its slow. It kicks me out after every episode i watch something. It doesn’t let me finish movies. It definitely needs some work for its price
Pause button
pause button does not work more than half the time
The School of Rock
Grantina
Keyboard shortcuts don’t work
Keyboard shortcuts don’t work otherwise this app would get 4-stars.
Why so many ads for paying customers?
I don’t understand how you charge us a monthly fee, yet there is more commercial than there is program. I am not sure this is worth it anymore, seriously thinking about getting rid of this subscription.
Lenta y trabada
Lo tengo en mi consola y aún así tarda en arrancar la app, aquí en mi móvil no me deja iniciar sesión porque me marca error sea cual se lo que pique dentro de la app.
Why??
Why is it when we try to rewind a few seconds, it starts the whole thing over again?? I missed one frame & tried to rewind to catch it and it started over.. even fast forwarding the 22 minutes we already watched kept starting it over again.. please fix!!
Absolute trash app
Never loads, constantly freezes, resets all the time. Out of the streaming apps this one feels like it was built by engineers who have no idea what they are doing. Bottom of the barrel team working on this platform. Laughable at this point. Fire them all.
Issues adding to my list
The plus sign is not working. I’m clicking it but it’s not adding items to my watchlist. Has been an issue for a while now.

App Sucks
This app keeps crashing it doesn’t matter if it’s on my phone, tablet, or t.v. While all other apps like Netflix, Disney, Hulu or YouTube work fine this app just keeps kicking me out or takes too long to load so a 30 min show takes and hr. I’m deleting this app and canceling subscription it’s just not worth the headache.
Ad greed
Can’t even fast forward a show or movie to a certain part without having watch 5 minutes of adds. just plain greedy
Great app
Awesome app to stream
Stopped working
App no longer opens after 15.24.3 version update. Sits on black screen and then crashes.

Paramount+ is a blast! And it's nice and sweet.
Can’t fwd or go back on shows
Love the shows you provide. But…. I’m watching Lioness ant it’s AMAZING.. left off mid way last night and I try to go back to the same spot today and I can’t. I have to watch the entire episode all over again.. no I’m not. I’ll just stream it. Ridiculous issue to have on this platform
It was good
Good shows
Worse app layout ever
UFC fights are hard to find and there is never a continuous fight card like it originally aired. At least I have a reason to sell my ufc and paramount stock, known issue simple fix. Oh well
I love Paramount+
Honestly, I think Paramount+ is a really good app because like it’s not too expensive and also I kind of think Paramount+ should add two broke girls and like movies like that because I feel like it would be kind of good. Love you Paramount+.

Whole app looks down
