TWiT.tv App Reviews

The app works, that’s most important. Few features that would make this a 4 star app: Change the menu bar icon to just the TWiT logo - I don’t care for all the text in my menu bar, allow users to turn off the dock icon - I prefer to toggle the app window from the menu bar, remember stream preferences on reboot. To make it a 5 star app I would need to see a streamlined interface. Currently it’s a little clunky with all the buttons and options surrounding the window.

So… I’m supposed to pay $1.99 for a dedicated video app that in the year 2015 doesn’t allow scrubbing through a video, skipping back or forward a few seconds at a time (no, chapter jumps don’t count) and doesn’t give me ANY functionality that I can’t get just by opening twit.tv or live.twit.tv in a browser window - and actually gives me LESS?!? Well, you got (suckered) me, but I hope all those other people who are thinking about doing this will read my review and STEER CLEAR! (At least until an update allows basic video manipulation capabilities…)

Its a nice app in a browser but without chrome cast its just useless to me. Why would one want to watch on a computer monitor? Not me. But the app is well done and well designed. They just got to add chrome cast in else I’m missing something.
