About a month ago I decided to upgrade and get a new OLED smart TV. The picture is fantastic, and it has all the apps built in using Google Home. So i figured why not consolidate and use the TV apps over the Apple box These built in things are dog shite. Slow, laggy, buffering issues and youtube tv crashed twice in the first week. I can see now why so many people get frustrated and fed up watching games over the apps, since I'm guessing these days most people have smart TV's with the awful built in apps


The external box has always been exponentially more reliable than the built in shite for me.

. I have to scroll up and down for the hundreds of ESPN+ available games. Some times it takes me a few minutes to find Nicholls or LSU because there are so many streams from football, basketball, and some other intercollegiate sport I didn't think was a team sport.


It is frustrating and ridiculous that the team you set as a favorite doesn’t come up first on the list, but why would you scroll for minutes trying to find LSU instead of just typing in LSU in the search?

Didn't know about the search function.



Since you are logged in how about also including what is unlocked or locked for your account. For example, today's Nicholls vs LSU game, I cannot watch with my regular ESPN+ account, because you also need to log in with a cable/provider subscription.

So, since I ditched cable, I cannot watch it.

Streaming can be a hot mess or multiple logins and login codes.

If you’re watching a 30 for 30 or any other documentary it does not have a continue watching option. You have to start it over if you haven’t finished it and try to fast forward. That is almost impossible to do without it freezing up and lagging. It makes me madder than hell
Know that you are not alone.
