It's been up and down like some of the updates are phenomenal and then some of the updates suck, like this current one. Ever since it's updated, if I'm watching a video, the second an ad comes on it goes mute and it will stay mute. There's nothing I can do about it to get the volume back,unless I exit out of the video and restart it. So imagine being into a video and all of a sudden it goes mute and then you have to constantly click out the video, then start it again, over and over.

most recent update is terrible. I hate that it now auto plays a video when I open the app, I'd like to decide for myself what to watch first. Many times, when I skip an ad, it takes me away from the video I'm currently watching and goes directly to the next one, which is really annoying. Also, it is almost impossible to control simple things when in small screen, I have to go back to full screen just to pause and play. the aspect ratios constantly changing for commercials is obnoxious as well.

It has been very glitchy lately: When i sometimes open the app, it goes to a non-playable video and automatically changes my screen orientation to horizontal. Sounds for videos will not play the first time and i have to exit out, play a different video, and go back to the original for the sound. When i pause the video, it will just refuse to start again until i do a full exit out of the app. These are a few examples.
