    Has anyone written an article yet about just why NowTV is so terrible compared to its competitors? What constraints are they working with that mean they can't just work normally in a browser like Netflix/Amazon Prime/Disney+ et al?

    Does @nowtv intend to leave disabled customers with a poor unusable nowtv app over Christmas. @nowtvhelp get the seperate Nowtv app back on. Its Christmas. You know it can be done. A real good coder can do it in less than a day.

    @TomLawwrence @NOWTV That's awful, hope they get it sorted ASAP. @SkyUK have always been so incredible with us! I'll see if I can refer you over to them instead?

    Go to NowTV tab, click on TV show, it makes me sign in again, it asks to open it in the external video player, player needs to updated, runs an old-school install wizard, then I have to go back and open it in the browser again. Why not just click and play like everywhere else?
