The content is great but live videos will regularly stop playing with a quick notification about the timing of the event having changed. Definitely a subpar UX. Inability to play when the screen locks is a negative, but that may be an Android issue and not app. Figuring out when videos will automatically undock based on what you do with switching apps can be tricky. ETA I think the dev misunderstood the timing issue. While watching a live event, the stream will actually stop with that error.

Fantastic app that is easy to use and has an incredibly easy to navigate layout. One big frustration with this app is that there is no way to stream video from my phone to my TV like with other video app out there. I don't want to have to be staring at my phone at all times when watching Washington journal, for example. It would allow me and other viewers to freedom to navigate and watch segments much easier.

I know this is a streaming app, but it should just be like the website where you could go to something you want to watch from any point. Also there should be the option to throw it to the Roku like they do in YouTube and facebook. I've emailed about this, but nobody listens. Streaming apps are worthless without a pause or starting point option.

Terrible. App doesn't let you easily connect to other providers (can't copy/paste acct info into a "link provider" screen bc it resets every time it loses focus). Can't really watch anything bc everytime you interact with the app it triggers a new ad! Don't rewind or resize or basically anything or your stream is interrupted by another ad. Gave up.

Frustrating interface. Trying to use the "Radio" tab to listen without video redirects you to signing in with your TV provider, which, why is called Radio if it requires a TV account? Why does a public service require me to have a commercial account at all? Using video feed regularly stutters or closes out completely claiming "the timing has changed!" Without further explanation. Needs help, needs a lot of help.

While all channels are displayed on the "listen" tab, only C-Span radio (cspan 1) is operational. all others require a cable subscription. Don't reply that this isn't the case, there isn't a workaround to "listen only" for these other channels. The original app has this but the notifications are not operational.

NEW: App keeps Force Stop Closing. Can't watch any Hearings, nothing. Can't seem to get it to Update. It's useless. ............. Good App.! Does exactly what it is supposed to do! I like that I can be in my car and watch what's going on in Congress, in both houses. Very convenient when I'm out running errands.

Edit: original rating more reflected the dissatisfaction with CSPAN's necessity for network subscriptions and not the app itself. Layout of the app is pretty straightforward, ads are in the videos and each page (including the clips' when you open them). I can't attest to the streaming quality but I presume some banner ad would be there as well My opinion still stands, with the popularity of dropping networks I wish I could pay y'all directly as we should all be able to see what congress does.
