WORST APP ON AMAZON FIRE TV STICK The BritBox app on the Amazon Fire TV Stick (UK) is without doubt the worst app on the the device, absolutely rubbish, can't navigate by type (such as Drama, factual, Comedy) so unless you want to watch what they want you to watch (with their rubbish recommendations and suggestions, and actors favourites) then forget it Not to mention you get some kind of authetication error with every program, plus the stupid buffering issues... I don't know what they're spending our subscription money on, but it certainly isn't development or bandwidth I cancelled by subscription, easier to watch content for free on YouTube, DailyMotion than waste time and money on BritBox I'll look again in a year or two

Terrible issues with buffering then no movement but sound and programme continues while watching a frozen screen. Would not recommend as you’ll spend money for nothing.

Closed captions are clicked on then don’t show up. Or they drop from one show in a series to next . Don’t hold on memory that you always want sub titles. And occasionally drops completely reverting back to Britbox app. Incredibly frustrating and ranks very poorly compared to Acorn, MHZ and Netflix.

Keeps freezing. Then I get an error message that won't go away and it takes a couple of days to clear itself. Cannot carry on like this, I'm cancelling.

Speechless... nearly lost the will to live trying to navigate my way round the app. It took an age to link my laptop with the TV & when I'd eventually figured it out it was sooo painfully slow & terribly complicated... I'd strongly suggest you think twice before pausing/stopping a program as it's very unlikely that you'll be able to re-start the program from the paused point, I made this mistake & it's done nothing since... Screen frozen & simply buffering. But... that being said... I liked the choice of programs & films on offer & I would consider subscribing to this service but not before they've sorted the app etc.

Britbox. The worst streaming service anywhere. Without a shadow of a doubt the worst streaming service anywhere! It continually freezes, stalls and stutters and the content is pathetic. Let's give you an example. They've just added a new category called 'Old School Classics', and so I decided to binge watch the original Captain Scarlet series (Second childhood time). Episode one was great... brought back so many memories. So, onto episode 2. Guess what? There is no episode 2. The morons have only put the first episode of most of these old classics on, including Stingray, Supercar, Fireball XL5, Joe 90 and more. How dumb are these people? Seriously? Another annoying thing is that it often doesn't store your 'last watched' point, which means you have to restart an episode or movie from the beginning. Thank God for Netflix - at least they know what they're doing!

What an absolute shambles of an idea. Signed up to binge on Vera which seems to have vanished from ITV Hub. Watch series 1 to whatever on Britbox it said. So I did. Cannot get a single bloody episode on my Freeview play box. Come to that nothing on Britbox on Freeview player. Whoever came up with this shambles of a service should resign immediately. Subscription cancelled after less than 4 hours. Won't be coming back.......
