Watch OWN for Pc

I’ve been an OWN app user for quite a while now however it’s getting to the point to where I’d rather not bother with the app at all. With a busy schedule, the connivence of being able to tune into my favorite shows at my own leisure is a great benefit. I enjoy tv and have a few cable apps downloaded to my phone however unlike the other apps OWN is the worst! The ads are ridiculous. I thought one of the benefits cable apps has to offer is limited to no commercials. OWN is the only cable app that plays up 8 commercials and frequently throughout the show. It takes away from enjoying the show on the app. You would think after paying for the network they would at least offer some type of benefit like other cable apps but no. Also, not to mention there is no 10 second rewind/fast forward option. So whatever you do do not rewind/fast forward to much because it’s a very strong possibility all those ads you had to patiently wait for to finish will pop back up for you to have to the app all 6-8 of them again. The app spares no pity for the watcher when it comes to the ads. The ads seem to be the most important aspect of the app. It’s possible that I could just be over reacting or possibly just beyond spoiled from the other cable apps that are just way better then the OWN app.

The app is decent aside from the frequent crashing and all these ads. It took me so long to the app episode 104 of Black Love because the app kept on crashing. Every time I go back into the app and try to fast forward where it crashed at I have to first sit through commercials then the show comes back on for a few minutes then crashes again and the same thing over again. I checked the App Store to see if there maybe was an update for the app but there isn't. I typically the app shows on apps specifically to avoid watching commercials and I get to enjoy most shows from other networks and Netflix app that way. This app has way too many commercials, I get that those commercials pay for the show but how do other network apps manage to not have commercials? I give it 3 stars cause I get to the app Greenleaf and Black Love that is all really.

I was absolutely THRILLED to find the OWN app and start watching quality shows. So much so, that I cancelled Netflix. I am shocked that this app is so glitchy. It continues to just kick me off during an episode ... then to add insult to injury, once I get the show and episode pulled back up, it starts it all the way back at the beginning vs. remembering my place. And then, the commercials... sweet niblets. Sooooo long and the exact same ones over and over again. So when I fast forward and try to find my spot, I get a truckload of the same ones I have been seeing for way too many minutes each break. Love the network, ready to give up and go back to Netflix because the app is making this way too painful. Fingers crossed OWN is not OK with this having their name and brand behind it and the issues get resolved quickly!

In order to get OWN I had to get the highest cable package and even then it wasn’t included. I had to then pay more to add it to the package because OWN is a super premium channel but Ok I still move forward. Now I’m watching the episodes I missed on OWN and every 2 minutes I have to the app 2 minutes of commercials. Have some decency, cut this out or add a monthly fee for the app to stop this madness. No one wants to pay this much to still have to the app commercials. Please let us live and enjoy the network without having to the app these commercials on the OWN app. Just stop trying to sell us stuff all the time. Let us have a moment to just enjoy the network and if we choose to pay more for this opportunity? Allow us to, but please stop forcing us to the app sales pitches, we need an option to avoid this. Thank you
