GFAM Movie Checklist for Negative User Reviews

✓ Not user friendly at allThis app is off to a terrible start. There are wayyyy to many taps required to get where you want to go. For example, if I click that I want to see the 2022 movies, I have to hit load more 5 times to see all of them. Then…if I tap into a movie and either add it to my list or click that I’ve watched I have to hit the back arrow 4 times to get back to the list (which also gives you the spinny wheel of death two of those times) and then when I get back to the list I have to hit load more several times again to see all the movies for that year. It took me over an hour and 15 minutes to go through each movie and mark it. You can do better. Especially since your basically ripping off the hallmark movie app. (Which works great, btw.).Tv522Version: 3.1.2

✓ SlowVery difficult going from one page to the next. Has to redownload every time I want to mark something watched or want to watch. The movies already watched end up on the top of the list, rather than the ones needing to still review if watched/want to watch. This also take lots of scrolling, slow page downloading, and time. “Watched” movies should go the bottom of the list..Kandigrl39Version: 3.1.1

✓ So disappointedI was really excited about finally getting an app comparable to the Hallmark movie app. Unfortunately it’s not at all comparable. SLOW is a generous understatement. It is extremely glitchy and cumbersome to see what movies are available and the schedule for the new movies. The list has to be continuously expanded instead of just being able to scroll down. You have to “start over” every time you add a movie to your list. It’s very frustrating to use..Miss Tink TinkVersion: 3.1.1

✓ DisappointedI love the direction the app is going but not there yet. When you try to choose movies for your watch list it goes all the way back to the beginning of the movie list then you have to keep loading more to get back where you were. It takes forever. Then when you choose a movie for your watch list, you have to hit the back button twice to get back and it takes too long to load each time..SummklVersion: 3.1.2

✓ Not at all user friendlyThis app is not user friendly at all. They need to take a look at the Hallmark app and make it like theirs. It takes forever to load anything. No matter what I click on it takes about a minute to 90 seconds to load. You have to keep hitting the loading button to bring up the list of movies instead of just clicking on the Christmas moves and see a complete list. It is so frustrating I just exit out and give up..Stacey822Version: 3.1.1

✓ Needs a lot of workThe app is similar to the Hallmark app, which I like, but it is painfully slow. The movies are not easily seen and there are no reminders when a movie is about to air, so I miss a lot of movies. When opening the app it takes a very long time to load and it will eventually time out. I’m hopeful that there will be lots of improvements made..SntjaxonVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Needs improvement!I want to express some constructive criticism of the app. When I click on movies in a certain year, then navigate to specific movie to note as watched, then I have to click back arrow twice. Then, I have to scroll up, then click show more in the specific year again, then click show more again! It's so aggravating! Can you please just have buttons on each movie title to make it easier to acknowledge them as watched?.J AZ TXVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Needs workI had deleted the previous app because it was useless for knowing about what and when any movies were happening. Just found this one and was happy to see there was finally a checklist. Took me over 2 hours to do one Collection of movies! If the back arrow worked it wouldn’t have taken so long. You have to keep reloading each collection for each year. The app is so slow and is frustrating. It’s a good start but has a long way to go!.Party Pooper1900Version: 3.1.1

✓ Slow and redundantEverything in the app moves slowly! You have to tap the back arrow twice after adding something to your watchlist, just to get back to the main list. And then, it only shows a few movies per year and EVERY time you want to view more you have to tap Load More - which takes quite awhile! Not what I’d hoped for, but maybe it will improve..Amandakj15Version: 3.1.1

✓ Ok Tracking App but SlowHas all the standard features but needs some improvements. Very slow response time to all clicks. You also can’t just pull up a list of movies, instead you have to look by year and the list resets after you open a movie to add to your list. Hopefully some improvement soon..BlinkspotVersion: 3.1.1

✓ HorribleI was excited when I saw there was an app to follow the movies. When I went to the movies, I’ve already watched it was a very slow and painful process. Walking movies that I’ve watched did not update the want to watch an already watched tabs. Today I’m trying to get the app to send to my calendar and that doesn’t work either. I tried logging out of my account and then I was going to log back in to see if that made any difference with my calendar. I forgot my password and I’ve asked for an email to reset my password five times and I still haven’t received an email. beyond frustrating..C5uvigdguyifgVersion: 1.0

✓ AnnoyedI am frustrated and annoyed with how this app works. Clicking on a collection to choose movies to watch or mark them watch takes forever to load - I would chuck that up to my internet but other apps are having no issues. But the biggest annoyance is when you click on a movie then choose what category you want it in ( watched or want to watch) you have to click the back arrow to go back to list not once but twice and each time you have to wait forever for it to stop circling. It really should be easier to check watch or want to watch..Fluffo68Version: 3.1.1

✓ DisappointedI just downloaded the app. Was looking so forward to making my “watch list”. The app is EXTREMELY SLOW. It took over 5 minutes just to add 3 movies to the list!! There is no way to check all, or a faster way to scan and check off. So, sadly won’t be using this app for that. There was a printable list of movies being premiered, so I will use that..EWX10Version: 3.1.1

✓ Good and badLove the movies, not so much the app. I don’t use google calendar. Making a list is cumbersome and time consuming and the app list to print is not working. This is a GREAT family alternative to all the junk on tv and social media. I only found the station in the last 6 months but looks like you have been out there offering good movies since 2021. Your movies have good to great story lines, wonderful actors, in general there is moral high ground & inclusion of God. For that I thank you!! Your competition has done a good job on the app side. Perhaps something to learn there..West Coast PrincessVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Needs a few improvementsThis app is pretty new and it has a lot of promise. I know it can take time and I’m sure it will get better I would love to see GAC’s non-Christmas movies added to the app There is a feature to do reviews but I don’t see any reviews submitted. I’m pretty sure people have probably submitted or tried to submit reviews so either they’re not taking or not showing. Otherwise I’m pretty happy about the app and excited to see what’s in store for the future!.Cooperstar15Version: 1.0

✓ Horrible!!!This app function like someone in elementary school started it. Middle school kids can build a better app than this one!! It is very difficult to move around, not all movies included, veerrryyyyyy sssssllllloooooowwwwww. So slow that you almost can’t use it. May instead of trying to copy Hallmark design your own app that is much better than theirs..Praying101Version: 3.1.2

✓ So slow— too many stepsI have been waiting for this and gotta say. First - the movies are listed BUT so slow and so many steps to see what they are about and when they are on. ( seriously designers should really LOOK at Hallmark Channel app. Simple —movies or series come up quickly , mark you want to or have seen — easy peasy.Ellen hardinVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Annoying to useGet rid of the “load more” and just list all the movies. Trying to go through the list to add movies to “My List” takes way too long. Once you add a movie to list you have to hit the back button twice to get back to the main list and then have to click on “load more” a bunch of times to see all the movies..Soccermom3811Version: 3.1.1

✓ Not User FriendlyTakes too long to load every page. Each click takes 2-3 times as long as it should. Plus there is no way to add all new Christmas movies to your watch list, has to be done individually, so with the long loads it could take forever to do this one by one. Stick to old fashioned pen and paper..Mugsly12Version: 3.1.1

✓ Long awaited app, but has glitches.As a movie lover, I’ve been wanting an app for GAC movies for years. I use the apps for several other channels, as well as IMDB, all the time. I keep track of movies I want to see, movies I’ve seen, and have a list of my favorites. I like to use the app to check the schedule for movies I want to see. The glitches make that difficult. It’s a multi step process to add movies to either list (watchlist, or watched). Every time I select a movie and add it, I have to tap the back arrow multiple times, to return to the list. The list also collapses and I have to re expand it. It’s not difficult, just repetitive and not user friendly. I’d also rather see all the movies, not just Christmas and not just by year. I really hope they can get a focus group together, or some app testers, to make some much needed improvements..BrownJKVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Virtually uselessEvery time I select something I get swirling balls of death and wait and wait and wait for the screen to load. Takes too many clicks and too much waiting to create a watchlist. Hitting the back arrow may or may not take you back. Takes two tries. It was actually working better before I created an account and logged in. I finally just gave up..OriglmarieVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Clunky and needs work badlyThe app is very clunky with lots of back spacing. When you choose a movie that you want to watch you must go back twice to get back to the list. Then the list isn't all showing and every time you have to choose load more. The app is absolutely not one I enjoy using. It may be a good start on an app but is definitely not ready for release. I suggest you check out your competitors app for some ideas and go back to the drawing board..Bev_TNVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Wanted to love itThey REALLY need to work out some kinks. Very slow app, and it’s not my WiFi. When you want to go back after looking at movie, there isn’t a back button. No keyboard when you fill out delete account reason. I hate to compare you guys to Hallmark, but you need to have a similar interface so it’s easy to use. Please work on this because I am VERY impressed with the channel, but this app is not up to par..Jbeast69Version: 3.1.1

✓ Slow!This app is slow. Takes forever to load and sometimes multiple hits to move actually move to the page. Example, hitting the back arrow refreshes it slowly than taking you to the back page. All the issues noted in July reviews are still very much present. Maybe developers should actually get on making this more user friendly instead of ignoring the issues..JC09765321223456Version: 3.1.2

✓ Agreed! Not user friendlyWon’t show all the 2021 movies in one view. Must click to expand the list EVERY TIME you go there. Even when you are working on your list back & forth. After adding a movie to your already watched list, you must click back twice to get to the 2021 (or whichever year you are looking at) movies. And then again to expand the list. It’s a great idea. Just be ready to be patient when using the app Also WHY DO I NEED TO BE TRACKED TO USE THE APP!?????!!!!! I SHOULD be able to set my time zone in the settings INSTEAD of being forced to allow tracking!.JoSam22Version: 3.1.1

✓ More work neededIt’s great that you have the movies by year/category, but continually having to click load more to go down the list is annoying, especially when trying to initially set up what you’ve seen vs want to watch. Based on how frustrating it was to click on movie, select, check I’ve watched, hit back arrow (twice vs once) then be brought to top of list to hit more multiple times to get to bottom, I’d say your developers haven’t used their creation. Not sure if plans, but may want to take note of how Hallmark Movies checklist allows you to add all new premieres to your watchlist with one click (vs manually checking off each) Oh, forgot to add that some of the links to trailers don’t work—get error message.InquistiveGardenerVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Doesn’t WorkI’v marked numerous movie as I’ve Watched but the list of movies watched still says zero, even though the movies I’ve watched are check-marked in the list view. Tried to use the contact Support feature but the keyboard won’t come up. An OK start, glad there’s finally an app to track the movies, but it’s fraught with problems. Hate to say it, but take a page from the Hallmark app - it’s awesome and works smoothly..AberdeenMuttsVersion: 1.0

✓ Not worth itWas excited to have an app to finally organize the mess that is the hallmark movies lol. I love these cheesy movies but I never know the names or forget them cause they’re all the same so keeping track is annoying. Thought this app would be easy to track new release dates and check off what I’ve watched etc. The app isn’t user friendly at all. once you click on a movie to view the details etc, it doesn’t save where you left off so now you have to start all the way in the beginning of the long list. You should be able to go through the list of movies, click on it, and if you’re interested in it, add it to your “view list” and then go back and carry on. I deleted it after 5 minutes..ShellieFly1Version: 3.1.1

✓ Too slow, takes too longThe app moves incredibly slow!! And the only way that I have found to add any movies is to click on each individual movie and click add to watch list. But with how slow each click takes to advance you to the next screen, it isn’t worth the time. Definitely need to update!! I need a nap after adding the 2023 Christmas movies to my want to watch list..Lori M RNVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Super disappointing!I’m trying to add the 9 I need to watch to my Google calendar and it’s adding all of them on October 20 , each at the same air time as the others. You need to show dates and showtimes on each movie, include all your premieres at least, not just Christmas (but then you’d have to rename the app) and once I click on a movie I have to click twice to get back out of it. Looking forward to when it’s running smoothly..Yay for RaeVersion: 1.0

✓ Doesn’t do all it says!The only thing I am able to do, is to add the movies to my “want to watch” list, and add them to my “watched list.” There is no place, that I can see, that lets you add them to your reminder. Also can’t find what is coming on and what time it is coming on. Guess I will stick with that other channel that lets you know what and when it is coming on..Not happy cruiserVersion: 1.0

✓ Love the channel hate the appOkay, hate the app is rather strong but it is so frustrating. The multiple taps to select the movie then load more, find a movie, tap it to choose add to watch list tap to add to calendar. Tap back to movie, tap back lo list, start at the beginning and have to scroll all over again including LOAD MORE because it doesn’t go back to where you were. All of this while waiting for the little dancing “loading” balls circling the drain again and again and again… between each tap. After watching a movie choose watched…circling balls again….then tap reviews then tap reviews then tap reviews only to discover they do not work. Please fix this app. It feels so unprofessional, like it was a grade school programming project. Sorry this seems so harsh but you try using it and see what we mean..TlmtcbVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Very cumbersomeThe way this is designed makes it very cumbersome to use. Multiple clicks to get to the screen where we can select to add it to the watch list. And then the same to select that we’ve watched it. Just give us the list of all of the movies and the ability on that list to add the to our watchlist. If we want to click on an individual movie to see more details about it, great. But don’t make us go multiple screens I. Just to add them one at a time. You’re making it way more difficult than it needs to be. If it stays this way, I may delete the app since it’s too much unnecessary work. And that’s a shame since I want to watch your movies and this would be an ideal way of getting notifications..ColleenFeVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Not so user friendlyThis app is great for listing and details but the check box for watched is on the individual page for that movie and it takes 3 more clicks to get. back then the load more button please make this easier to use..PamHemenVersion: 3.1.1

✓ SlooooowSo glad you have an app finally! I would love to see a way to more quickly add movies to watchlist without clicking on each one and taking so long to load, takes almost a minute to add each movie to the watchlist! Please make improvements and make it more user friendly - I love being able to track what I’ve watched!.~cam~cam~Version: 3.1.2

✓ Faster!!!Please speed this app up!!! It is too slow. I have used the Hallmark app for years and it’s great for keeping up with my movies. I expected to navigate this one just as easily and I can’t. It takes way too much time to load each screen and most of them I have to load twice just for them to open. Please revamp the app!.HannahbuVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Needs ImprovementThis checklist is not user friendly … yet. Adding a movie to the want to watch list requires multiple steps. Movies are grouped by year and these categories are collapsed, so adding a new movie to the want to watch list may require expanding the list 5-6 times. The want to watch list appears in some random order (possibly by release date, but not clear) and can’t be sorted by the date the movie will air next. Needs a lot of improvement!!.Bayley.2.17Version: 3.1.2

✓ Too Slow, Horrible to UseIn theory it is great, but having to reload the lists every time when it takes minutes to load is crazy. Hire better talent that can give you an app worth using. Your competitors (more than one) have been able to develop user friendly and quick apps. Don’t do it half way, if so just don’t do it. The frustration I feel trying to mark all of the movies I have watched and want to watch just isn’t worth it. I’d rather keep track on paper as I have been for the past 16 months..FsumissyVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Needs SERIOUS improvementFirst and foremost! This app needs a tick box that selects all to add to the watchlist. Maybe the release for this app was pushed out too soon? Although similar to the competitor’s aesthetics, details, and layout, it’s nothing like the competitor’s functionality and it takes FOREVERRRRRR to do one movie. It loads, I add, it reloads, then refreshes requiring an additional tap to go back to the prior screen as it saves, then back to the main screen. Complete waste of time for users to appreciate. It should do the work for your viewers so we WANT to USE the app and COME BACK for more. It’s uninspiring and I want to delete it, take my own picture of the “downloadable list” and check it off. I say this with the utmost love and sincerity for the designers and developers of this app because I want success for you, “Try again. Update it. Viewer use and satisfaction will follow. Please don’t give up, and try again. There’s serious potential here. The app is nearing success.”.TheCharmaiVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Very slow!!!!I downloaded this app so I could keep track of movies I’ve seen and want to see etc. you have to open every movie individually and it takes FOREVER to load, then after checking either that I saw it or want to see it, I have to click the back button and wait for the page to load once again! Very frustrating app! The movies should be all seen on one page with buttons to click right there beside the names. You should only have to click to open if you want more detailed info. PLEASE fix this!!! I don’t want to bring up the ‘other’ Christmas movie channel, but their app at least works quickly and is way more user friendly..AirandIceVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Super SlowIs anyone else having trouble with the apps speed? It loads very very slow and sometimes when I am clicking through the pages it doesn’t load at all. Just the loading bubbles that go on and on. I hate to delete the app and have all of my checklists wiped out. Very frustrating..Kirby 4604Version: 3.1.1

✓ Needs improvementsThe ability to add a movie to the Google calendar is great, & I’m glad they have recently added non-Christmas movies. However, there is often a discrepancy between the movie listed for a particular date and the actual movie shown on that date. I believe the network is constantly making changes that are not reflected in the app..Lkm612Version: 3.1.1

✓ Way tooooo slow!I love the channel and was excited when the app was finally available. However, it’s worthless. It’s way too slow, and I have to hit back twice to get to the main menu. We shouldn’t have to load more to see all the movies this year. When I loaded more and selected a movie to add to my watchlist, I still had to click “load more” to see the list again. So disappointing..Emma Jean RVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Frustratingly SlowNot just cumbersome as mentioned by others, but INSANELY slow. So slow, it renders the app almost useless. A movies should be able to be selected, marked as want to watch (or watched) in about two taps and and screen changes and under five seconds, not the half dozen minimum taps/screens with 5 or more seconds between each. Get this fixed!.LazyjmusicVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Yikes. Needs workSlow, slower, slowest. I can’t use this all until it gets a serious upgrade. The movie list is agonizing slow to load. The load more takes forever, or doesn’t update at all unless you hit it multiple times. Don’t even get me started on the painstaking process of adding movies to the “I’ve watched list”… this app needs work to even become useable sadly. As a very wary GAFM fan… aka I really don’t love the movies but I’m willing to give some a chance… I was hoping to find some of the great ones that have slipped through the pile of not good ones at all. But I can’t revisit this app without having a mental breakdown. Hopefully this has a few iterations coming and a major pep in its step….BethyMWVersion: 3.1.1

✓ Not Ready YetCan’t send a message via Contact Page as it doesn’t trigger keyboard to pop up to be able to fill in the boxes. “The Great Christmas Switch” has “A Hot Cocoa Christmas” synopsis. Not sure why “A Hot Cocoa Christmas” title is even being used as a title when it comes up as “Much Ado About Christmas”. Not registering the percentages yet. And new movies like “Belgian Chocolate Christmas” isn’t on the list even tho made last year & being shown on TV tonight (July 8th). Going to have a checklist for the other movies for all the other seasons? Been waiting for this since GAC 1st premiered in 2021..QueenMrsBeeVersion: 1.0

✓ Several issuesI just downloaded the app and went through marking movies. Here is what I encountered: 1) some of the header pictures included the title (most helpful after being interrupted) and some just had a link stating ‘Watch Preview’ (not helpful at all). 2) When finished, I clicked on Discover heading and checked out all the tabs. There is an issue with the Christmas tab. I missed selecting and updating three movies. All three were listed under ‘Watched’ heading. To me they should have been listed under ‘Want to Watch’ or listed above and not under either heading. 3) When I selected ‘My List’, I get 16 movies to watch and 0 watched so naturally the percent would be 0. If I counted correctly, I’ve watched 15 movies and want to watch 16 movies. 4) Not necessarily an issue but very interesting that the debut year listed on some of the movies isn’t the actual year the movie was released. Also, under settings, an option needs to be added for updating location for scheduling the movies. Currently if someone moves to a different time zone, the current scheduling would not work for them. And hopefully you will be adding non Christmas movies to the app..Don't provide personal infoVersion: 1.0
