I've used now tv last year to watch GOT. Unfortunately the user experience was horrendous so I've cancelled my subscription right after. Yesterday I've purchased again in order to watch Blacklist S06 & S07. I must say they didn't improve a dime since. The app on the Google Tv is not user friendly. I have Prime, Netflix, Disney+ subscription too and compare to them Now TV is the most expensive one while holding the record with the worst user interface. The subtitles are too small because they forgot to scale it to the resolution. They also don't bother to add a settings options so people can arrange the size as they please. While forward/rewind you can't see a preview of the scene. They don't have a desktop app yet you can't watch anything from their website without downloading an hilarious app which sole purpose is to open their website and play the thing you want watch. The level of their digital failure is so unbelievable I think the sole reason they exist is the make people miserable and let them switch to Sky Tv with their life long contracts in order to watch their series in peace of mind. Otherwise I can't see a reason why the most expensive streaming service is still existing in business with such horrible applications while all they sell is Sky channels?
Without their boost service you can't stream multiple devices which is fine. The problem is their check mechanism is so buggy. Today I was watching on my phone for the first time then I decided to move on with tv. I've paused on my phone then opened the app on tv. It gave an error. I've closed the app in the background then tried again but no chance. Now tv can detect once you had another device open but can't detect that you closed the other device. I had to restart tv in order to fix it.
At last the only private streaming service who sells their services with ads is NOW TV. It's so complicated to find out how much you pay for the package you buy. If you check their website they generally give you the boost (ad-free) service free for 7 days. After they add £5 to your monthly bill. Throughout the purchase process they almost hid it until the last page. It's like a secret package they are pushing your bag. I mean why not say it's 14.99!!! Keep it straight so we will know what we are paying. In my first subscription with them I've realized they are charging separately the entartainment pack and the boost pack. They are not even put them together on the transactions.
The only positive thing is their resolution is better than Netflix, but who doesn't.
