Showtime Anytime

Well the title basically says it all. This is my serious request. When I'm watching a show on Showtime..like "Shameless" for instance, at times I may feel like I missed something that a particular character said. When this happens, I want to quickly go back a short bit (like 10 seconds) to hear again what little bit I think I may have missed. So I just want to go back a little to hear it again. But I don't want to have to go back 30 seconds just to hear the bit that I missed just a few seconds ago. And sometimes I may want to do it a couple of times. In that case, I'm having to go all the way back 30 seconds each time and wait until it finally gets to the part I want to hear again. That's frustrating! If I had trouble understanding what a character said, I may have to listen to it again three times (in some cases). So it's both frustrating and time consuming when it goes back 30 seconds, when all I want is for it to go back just a little bit. So please change the rewind icon to 10 seconds instead of 30! PLEASE!

Just a heads up. This is one of the absolute worst “privacy policies” and “term of use” I have ever read in my life. Carefully read thru them. When it comes to every single thing you do online with your phone, they track it, store it and share it, once you agree to their service. Then it’s now open information to absolutely anyone Showtime decides to share it with, including BUT not limited to your internet browsing, purchases online and ALL online activity on your phone. This information can be shared with your contacts on Facebook, Google and any other companies Showtime has an agreement with at this time or on the future. They indicate you can adjust your privacy settings at EACH of any of their partners. However, you CANNOT adjust your privacy settings with them. And of course you will have no idea how many partners they are sharing your information with at all. Unbelievable, I love the Showtime content but they have lost me as an online customer and until they offer the ability to choose to share your information with their partners, absolutely no one in my house with use this App. So disappointing. I would give 0 stars if it was possible for signing away any form of privacy just to view content online that you already can watch at home. Absolutely Crazy.

Wow from reading the other reviews I believe showtime is using this app to sell our information. Here is why. Someone mentioned the apps permission and terms of service gives it access to a whole lot of personal information that it can use to make money that is unnecessary for it to need. 2. You MUST have the app to activate a smart tv. There is no other way. People mention the activation needs to be reactivated every week or so. This keeps the app on your phone. Giving showtime access to all your sensitive data a the time. Bravo showtime. Great money making idea!!! I’ll check with others to see what they think about this. Really inconvient you have to download an app to activate a device. Other providers have a simple webpage that does this. You want me to take up room on my phone that’s crazy. Also my stepmom doesn’t even know how to install an app. I’m sure a lot of people tried to activate their TVs and failed and quit out of frustration. What if your extremely unlucky and your phone is broken? Sorry no phone - no showtime. Older people also sometimes have flip phones and no data. Whoever thought this was a good idea should be fired. Ok it’s great to have this as an option but follow from every other networks example and use a webpage. People are familiar with.

I do enjoy watching Showtime, however, I am annoyed the app will constantly log me out. This is especially annoying since I need the app in order to watch Showtime on my Xbox One & I’ll be in the middle of a show then be told I need to log back in. I’ve already uninstalled and reinstalled the app a few times and this issue still persists. Each time I have to log back in it shows my Xbox is not a registered device and I have to re register it again. It’s just annoying and the only issue I have with the app. It happens about every two days. If it wasn’t so frequent I probably wouldn’t care nearly as much. When this issue has been fixed I’ll be more than happy to change my review :) otherwise this app works very well for me and I don’t have any issues at all. Update: well, it no longer logs me out. Instead when it auto plays to the next episode, I will get an error message that something g went wrong and I have to back out to the main menu and then go back to the episode I was watching. I’ve done all the same troubleshooting steps (logged out, uninstalled, powered off, etc) and it still happens. Although I am not having to log back in, the issue has gone from every couple of days to every episode... so this is not hopeful progress...

I have nothing to complain about with regards to Showtime programming content obvi or I wouldn’t be a subscriber. My problem with the application is the fact that I purchased an Apple Genuine HDMI adapter that plugs into the Lightening Port on my iPhone 7+ and its sole function is to allow the user to see what is displayed on the iPhone screen on a television. This adapter was $49usd at my local Big Box discount store; pretty pricey for a cord adapter if you ask me but it always seemed worth the money as I travel a lot and don’t like to break out the laptop and hdmi in hotels to watch Icefilms and Darewatch etc... and before the recent changes my adapter was recognized and treated the same as Apple TV however now I am blocked from viewing content upon connecting it to the TV I get a message that tells me, essentially, that this app will no longer allow me to view its content through the Apple HDMI connector but I could buy Apple TV and until I do I am free to buzz off! Nice job ...,
