I have installed and uninstalled Pluto a number of times including just a few minutes ago. I am still unable to get it to work properly. Programs do not play. Period. Also when I finally do get to watch what I've chosen, there are too many commercials.
Im tired of watching shows where they restart after stopping in the middle of scenes get repeated 3x in certain shows. Its getting old
I just wanna write a review in regards to the disappointment that I have with Pluto TV. This was my go to channel to watch all kinds of movies and old shows and now it seems like the past couple months I’ve been dealing with error codes and it’s buffering and freezes and now I’m getting a message when I try to login or go on we’re having trouble playing this title, retry and it’s buffering as I am writing this review. I’ve been trying to get the channel to come in for 30 minutes until finally I’m giving up. I’ll just go with prime or Tubi or all the other apps that are out there cause this isn’t worth it, and it’s like get it together I mean OK I understand it’s free but I mean who wants to sit here for 15 minutes in the morning or every now and then randomly get error codes and buffering and it’s not my TV because I can quickly go into any other app perfectly. Is this specific Pluto app which now I’m not even gonna go into it anymore and I won’t recommend it

I was watching Rocky 5. I have gotten used to commercials again like when I was a kid. I am now 61 so I used to watch CBS, NBC, ABC, Channel 9 - WORTV, Channel 11 - WPIX, and finally PBS - Channel 13. So commercials were very common and we didn't know any better!! As I said already I am getting used to commercials again and 1/4 or 1/5 is like the old times. But today watching Rocky 5 I had to watch 1/8 and 1/10 commercials after only watching 7-8 minutes of the movie. Very very very frustrating!! I sincerely hope this changes soon or else you will be losing me as a viewer!! I don't mean to sound so negative but when the commercials are as long as the movie viewing time......it's just not worth it to watch anymore!! Thank you for your time!!
Fedt koncept, men der er alt alt for mange reklamer, så lysten til at blive og se færdig er lig 0
Pluto TV som koncept er ok, men jeg forstår ikke helt at Pluto TV fjerner serier og programmer konstant. Serier som de reklamerer for på egen kanal kan man ikke streame, hvilket virker skørt og dumt.
Pour services lack of connection it always messing up when I’m trying to watch something on demand and shuts off while I’m watching something live. Pluto tv app is a piece of bullshit!
Les films/series se bloquent. Si on réessaye comme indiquer on se retrouve avec le film ou serie precedent. des arret sur image... etc etc ..
Use Pluto with Roku stick. Frequent auto change of shows, total pain to get back to show I was watching then 14 commercials later I can find the point where it changed shows. Also unlike the 4 other streaming channels I use Pluto can't seem to remember what I was watching so it takes me to Moesha or some other show I never watched.
Every time I put it on it's always cutting in and out buffering, repeats. A lot of times it'll just stop for what seems like minutes.Too frequently pop up saying "we're having trouble playing this title" Frustrating and annoying when I'm trying to watch listen or want to hear something. Reminds me of back in the day physically adjusting the antenna trying wanting it to work right 🤬 🌟 🌟 1/2
They are shooting themselves in the foot. Started watching it from the beginning but avoid it now due 100% to the amount of commercials. Much worse than Over The Air tv. Just their regular shows are bad enough, but the On Demand programming is totally unwatchable.
Always have captions on and can't turn them off. On demand is a joke... there is npthing on demand no matter what you choose ... can't do that now.
Ya se que es gratis, no hay publicidad, pero eso de cortar cada cinco minutos los programas cansa un montón porque es imposible seguir el hilo de los programas. Es odioso.
Jeg har altid været glad for Pluto TV fordi de var det eneste sted jeg kunne se Det lille hus på prærien. Nu i dag lørdag d.31 Maj, har de fjernet serien fra Pluto TV. Det var ellers ærgeligt da det var den primære årsag til jeg brugte appen. Jeg synes det er synd at de fjerner en god serie uden grund og derfor kan det heller ikke blive til mere en to stjerner.
I was watching a movie tonight and this is the second set of commercials with 22 commercials!! I've experienced times where there is maybe seven at the most but this is ridiculous! I hope this is just temporary. Something needs to be done about this.
Pretty good content, but the streaming servers appear to be programmed by 3 year-olds. It's ostensibly a lucky dip system, so you pick a series, select an episode and click on it, only to be greeted by a different episode. All very frustrating, and a shame, because it could have been quite good.
Pluto carries some shows I really enjoy. Like "Catfish." However. I get so frustrated by the constant interruption by station identification and the exact same commercials, over and over again, that I usually bail on my show before it ends. I get so irritated I end up angry. There's no pleasure to watching Pluto. Fix this!!
