Can’t delete videos - mixed response from support

By Joshua Starnes

Some random videos repopulate in continue watching no matter how many times they are deleted. Reached out support without resolution, just sent me to add to their dev backlog which never picked it up. Been a year. Seems like some gaps in ability to handle bugs.


Love CR but the app does need work

By Why???????!??

I don’t use the app often because it’s kind of clunky. Having to sign in every few days is very annoying. I’ve also noticed that when I click on a video, sometimes it just takes me to the video description rather than playing the video. I would really prefer if it was structured more like YouTube. The visual design is really nice though. It’s the only subscription I pay for, which is a testament to how much I love CR. Cause the app really does need work.


Love the Content, app needs improvement. Especially Cookie Policy.

By Jackie6187

The folks at Critical Role have always created quality, compelling content. No issues there. There’s a reason they’ve been so successful for 10 years now. + + The app itself is just really unstable. Crashes a lot. Logs you out randomly. When I try to clear my recently watched, some episodes simply won’t go away. Scrubbing doesn’t always work either. + + But my biggest pet peeve is that when you log in, the prompt to opt out of cookies (which appears every single time you log in and doesn’t save your preferences) almost always disappears before I can even interact with it and set up my preferences! So I don’t reliably have control over what cookies are collected. It is very frustrating, especially when they use Google Analytics to gather and analyze that data and Google is now deeply entrenched in the data infrastructure of a genocide. I bought a subscription and downloaded the Beacon app in my attempt to divest from Google and stop watching CR on YouTube. But because of the unreliable UI I still can’t fully ensure that I avoid Google interacting with my data while consuming CR content.
