Outside Watch for Negative User Reviews

Clunky interfacePerhaps we are spoiled with the slick interface of all the streaming platforms out there. But this one just feels a little bit rough. A few missing points: My list Video descriptions Comments/reviews on the positive side, it is an incredible collection of adventure video. One stop shop!.Version: 29.0

Please helpLots of great content, but glitchy. How do I back out of the Live TV stream, for example..Version: 29.0

Outside+ is a terrible piece of softwareI signed up for Outside + so I could stream the Killington World Cup races. I almost never watch live so if I can’t stream replays this app is useless to me. The navigation tools in the app are non-existent. There was no menu options for replays. The app would only let me watch the live event which was run 2. When I did find something that said USS Event Replays buried in the menus it only showed me a 30 second promo then stops, no option to watch it. I also did a search for Killington and this event didn’t even show up. In addition, if you select Live TV from the home menu it takes over the screen with no options to back out or close it. You have to close the app and restart it to get out of the Live TV. Seems this software never made it out of alpha test..Version: 29.0

The content is fine but the apps are lackingI’m using the AppleTV version which tends to crash. The content is not that well organized, and and is lacking descriptions, length, sometimes series and episode information. The back button does not necessarily take you back to where you came from. It can be better integrated with the Apple TV so your content shows up in the AppleTV catalog and what to watch areas as it would drive more subscribers. The app also crashes easily..Version: 29.0

Poorly designedOne of the worst streaming experiences I have found. From a poorly designed interface, user unfriendly navigation, to lacking basic streaming features. No watchlist, no blurbs on what each movie or series is about, some don’t even have trailers. So basically if I find a title interesting, I have to exit the app and google the title to research it myself just to find out what the movie is about. When I subscribed to Outside Plus this “bonus” feature of the membership is listed as being an $80 Value. No way this streaming service is worth $80 a year. I am a longtime reader of Outside Magazine and love the quality of their stories and the design and layout of the magazine and website. I was looking forward to experiencing Outside TV, but this app is obviously not up to the Outside brand standards and I can’t believe that they would put their name on something so awful. Extremely disappointed..Version: 29.0

Pls considerMost apps nowadays are free and most are very good. So If I decide to pay extra on a monthly basis for your upgrade I do NOT expect to see commercials, and dont wish to be interrupted literally every three minutes with your request for reviews, and likes, and again commercials. Not all of us have an attention span of a mosquito. And I think most of us hate commercials. If We are willing to pay extra for your programming don’t show me another commercial.Version: 11.0

User-unfriendlyAfter paying for the subscription it’s like pulling teeth to be recognized as a subscriber so you can access full length of the films rather than just the previews. Also, if you have different types of devices say a google-fi phone, apple tablet and windows laptop, it will not recognize your account, not even allow you to login without paying for a subscription again. It doesn’t recognize series you’ve started watching, so you have to look them up each time. There are some great cinematography work on here. It’s just not user friendly enough to keep paying for it..Version: 25.0

Too many bugs and hard to navigate contentFar too many bugs in the app (installed on Apple TV) and very difficult to navigate content. Screen tends to go fully black often while audio continues normally. Hard to reverse this. Many essential features need to be enhanced for a better overall user experience..Version: 26.0

Ignoring content, app is very unfriendlyOutside content and ecosystem is great, and the reason I’m here. But the app itself is rather unfriendly. There are no features like “continue watching” for a series I’m interested in. Playing the same episode doesn’t even resume where I left off. The kicker was Outside TV... somehow, clicking into that tab removes all controls and doesn’t bring them back with any gestures, so the only way to stop is to force quit. Love the idea and intention but the execution needs a lot of work to make this enjoyable..Version: 29.0

Worst website I have ever encountered by far. Everything I havePunched up is available with a subscription. But I already have an outside + subscription. It’s so bad I suggest you fire the whole management staff and start over. I notice in comments And reviews that I have plenty of company..Version: 29.0

Very simple interface - lacks contentAfter downloading app realized it was a very simple, yet somewhat clunky app to navigate content. A lot of the content I had already scene and found thru two other app providers which left very little original programming to watch. The app could use a new face lift and some updates..Version: 11.1

Blocked by login screenCannot create an account. Gets stuck at “please check that you entered your information properly” Oh well I guess..Version: 29.0

Can’t recommendThere are too many issues with this app - both on AppleTV (4K) and the iPad app to recommend. Both these devices are less than six months old, so it’s not like it’s old hardware. I’ll be canceling after one month. First issue - I subscribed to be able to watch movies. Only about 1 in 3 films I’ve gone to watch actually works. The rest get an error saying they can’t load, or on the iPad app, they just result in a blank screen. Same movie. Different platforms. Same issue. Second issue - you can’t hit pause on the series or movies. For real. Actually, to be more specific, you *can* hit pause, but you can’t *unpause*. Your only choice then is to exit out of the film entirely..Version: 20.0

Very frustrated.Lots of bugs and very hard to navigate the app Very frustrated. I paid for subscription but unable to play content “from the ground up”. It fails to play from the appleTV app. All my other apps work fine. I have tried multiple times and reset everything multiple times. I also tried to use airplay to stream it to Apple TV from the app on my my iPhone. However as soon as my iPhone screen turns off (after 30 secs) it stops playing. Very frustrating. It I can’t watch the content I want they I might as well cancel the sub. That’s a real shame as the content looks like it could be great if only I could watch it. Even the option to send feedback email in the app does not work..Version: 28.0

Beware - very difficult to unsubscribeYou will continue to get charged repeatedly. No response from app support. $4.99 will continue to get charged to your card. After 3 months I am now having to cancel my credit card because I can not get Outside to stop charging me. So many other ways to get great outdoor content without having to worry about repeat charges..Version: 10.0

Shiffrin documentaryI actually like the channel but one of my big reasons in getting it was this documentary. There are only two 10 minute episodes and none have been added since it started. Probably shouldn’t have used that as the advertising piece..Version: 29.0

70.3 Indian WellsThe ‘live’ broadcast is not working AT ALL. This app is garbage.Version: 29.0

No chromecastChromecast is unavailable on my device. I don’t want to have to hold my phone to watch videos. There’s probably a solution that involves the purchase of something else, but if I can chromecast redbulltv and gcn, I’d think outsidetv could find a way to include that feature..Version: 29.0

Great content, no chromecast1. Please add Chromecast support. Really. 2. The UX is pretty bad: you open a film and you get a trailer instead. Oh but you have to swipe left! Go figure. Just get a designer..Version: 29.0

Amazing content, awful appGreat content, but impossible to use/navigate the app. No blurbs about movies, no watch list, horrible layout for browsing. Wish they’d clean this up, the shows and films are so great once you find what you want to watch (if you don’t give up out of frustration first)..Version: 29.0

Live stream crashesI just want to watch some TV in the background while I’m cooking, and am trying to get off Youtube. But it’s hard when Youtube is the only app that works!.Version: 31.0

Two stars only, maybe 1 star content is goodOnly option is airplay on the app and website. Watching movie on my phone and try to go away from the app to message and the movie stops?! App always has to be on to keep watching?! Can’t even lock my phone to save battery cause? You guessed it, movie stops streaming! Update this app! Not going to resubscribe for sure as it stands..Version: 29.0

Search?To hard to navigate to ski races and sort by discipline.Version: 29.0

App is unfriendlyIt is difficult to find what you want to watch. I was not able to use the app on my tv with Roku or Apple TV because I could not login to my account without errors. Had to use iPad..Version: 29.0

No access to contentIt is a website of commercials. You cannot actually watch any of the episodes even if you pay the monthly fee. They never miss auto billing you, but you will never have access to any of the content..Version: 25.0

Great content if only the app workedThere’s so much great content, it’s a bummer it’s on such a terrible app. I can’t recommend you pay for Outside +, unfortunately. Whenever I try to watch something, I get sound but no video, just a black screen..Version: 29.0

No responseIt works okay on a mobile device but it appears to not play well with my laptop. No response from customer service, technical support, or anyone after multiple attempts and several days to resolve an ongoing streaming issue from my laptop. Not even an automated reply kindly stating that the response time may be delayed due to an overwhelming issue with their platform being very disappointing..Version: 29.0

Good videos on a poor appOutside has a great libraries of videos however they are hard to navigate and feel like they were just dumped into this app. With my outside + membership content there is so much potential but they keep all of that on the website and this is just a teasers to watch some of the videos on your phone only. There is no chrome cast support in the app so you have minimal streaming options from your phone and once again it pushes you back to using the website.Version: 29.0

No streaming for other devicesThe Live TV has no buttons to stream to an Apple TV or Chromecast. I’m not watching a full Ironman on my phone, that makes no sense to have no streaming option….Version: 29.0

Crashes Roku, no supportI’ve been trying to reach out to OutsideTV via multiple avenues regarding a problem but have so far received no response. After about 30 minutes of watching any program, the app crashes my Roku to the point that I have to turn off the TV and unplug the Roku. I’ve attempted to reach someone on social media, app support, etc and get no response. Probably have no choice but to cancel my subscription..Version: 26.0

Good content poor appThis app freezes anytime you try to fast forward. The smart TV app is even worse and makes it unusable. Very frustrated I subscribed to watch a frozen screen. Don’t waste your money on the +.Version: 29.0

TerribleWorst app experience ever. Once you start watching something (which is is likely to be something you did not even want to watch in the first place) you cannot navigate away without closing the app and starting over. I signed up, and paid, to watch World Cup skiing at Killington. Total fail..Version: 29.0

Does not workI have a valid subscription and can watch on pretty much every other device, but not iOS. This app does not work.Version: 29.0

Horribly designed appThis app makes it incredibly hard to find movies to watch. You can only view one movie at a time when scrolling and there are no text descriptions..Version: 29.0

Can’t access content and difficult to use.Whoever programmed this app definitely doesn’t use it. Just another waisted trap subscription that doesn’t work when I want it to. Nothing but issues with this app and site. I want to watch St George 70.3 Mens Championship on my IPad and it is only available for the women. I can watch it on my desktop but not here..Version: 29.0

Download??Fix your download capabilities. Please advise that its working. No content will download in Outside Plus. Neat to watch content while setting at desk - better to do such when untethered. Fix it. And Yes I have the new ap..Version: 29.0

Poor serviceI’m an Outside+ member who can’t get access to most of these films even though I’m a member. The films look amazing but Outside can’t seem to organize their member services very well..Version: 29.0

Ironman 70.3While the content of the “commercials” is great — this app keeps crashing after each commercial break. I have to close, and reopen after each one to restart the livestream. It’s also glitchy while trying to cast it to the tv. This girl just wants to watch some triathlon!!!.Version: 29.0

Won’t even let me create an accountI downloaded the App and can’t even get it to accept my new account creation. Unable to use at all so deleted it..Version: 33.0

Awesome content, awful interfaceSome of the best content, but they really need to sort out the app! Impossible to navigate, no way to create a watchlist, not user friendly at all. Can never find what I’m looking for, or even stumble upon similar stuff. Really awful app all around.Version: 29.0

Modernize your streamingI don’t want content live this on my phone. Please add the option to stream to Google ChromeCast. The stream to Apple TV seams like the old controls. Connecting can be spotty and the stream stutters. I have a fast home connection. Fiber with 300 up and down. This should play smooth. Please fix it..Version: 29.0
