STV Player Avis 

Adverts so many of them
Unable to enjoy watching
AVOID

Love t
o listen to cat and euan in the morning on the way to work but reception is not good in West dunbartonshire

Worst app for buffering. Waste of time trying to watch anything

It shows a million adverts and then halfway through the program pretends to lose WiFi so that when you try again it can show another million adverts. Funny how it never has a problem showing the adverts

Repeatedly taken funds and failed to provide the service.

There is no customer support to talk to. Banks are aware of funds being taken fraudulently repeatedly.

Avoid

Was so looking forward to watching Moonlighting. But rather than using this series as a hook to get people watching this streaming device they are actually doing the advertising companies are a disservice because it is impossible to watch an episode without constant buffering. No other streaming platform has this level of technical issues and even after turning off adblocker, clearing cache, turning the STV player off then on and turning off all other open tabs it STILL doesn't work. Forget about it advertising companies, go somewhere else. I know I have.

HORRENDOUS experience. It buffers constantly (while other apps don't), closes abruptly, and is generally hard to navigate. If I wasn't so keen to watch Brookside, I'd give up altogether.

Never before in the annuls of broadcasting has so much rubbish been crammed into one hour of television. How much longer are we going to be drip fed the lazy writing, unbelievable, plot lines and wooden acting by some of the Corrie staff, you seem to be of the opinion that, Oh,this is an institution,everyone will carry on watching regardless, breaking news, we won’t. Stop churning out this rubbish

Worst streaming service out there.

Absolutely terrible app keeps buffering no matter what you do to resolve it ,joke

I spent £500 on a new TV and can no longer watch Coronation Street because of this pile of s**t

High time someone at STV was held accountable for this shambles. Same problems as every other persons review on here I.e. not loading, buffering constantly, shutting down on you and then you have to go through the whole advert shambles again right from the beginning. Never experienced anything like this with any other apps.

Despite what STV customer services tell you regards clearing cache and reinstalling it still buffers, hangs, digitised and fails. The user interface is awful. Out of all the apps I use on fire stick, such as BBC player, STV is by far the worst. When will they listen to their users and do something about it instead of making up excuses by suggesting its a broadband or hardware issue!

I paid for the no-ads. It repeatedly reverts back to the 'free with ads'. Customer service takes the full 2 days to respond. Never an apology or refund offer! I go for ad-free with all my streaming services and this is the only one that there's ever been a problem with. And I wish they'd take that big picture of Ant an' Deck down. The last thing you want is their stupid grinning faces all the time when you go in to see if the problem's fixed. I'm finished with STV player. There's so many good things on other streaming channels.

The app is just so unreliable. Loosing programmes half way through shows then coming back after 10 or so mins after doing all the checks reloads etc.. the worst TV app of all time. Come on ITV get your act together it’s 2025

Basically agree with majority on these reviews... Absolute shambles of an app, streaming service..commercials play perfectly, programme one wants to watch buffers then stops then commercial plays again countless times... Si frustrating. Stv sort it out... My word.

Trying to join, only given option to close account. Have tried in the past, now realise why I gave up first time.

Keeps throwing me back to the start of the first episode.
Repeated adverts then back to the start again.
Absolutely rubbish compared to other streaming services.

Worst app I’ve ever used keeps freezing and restarting after pausing
