Whether it be from the home page or using the library, most of the time the “wait spinner” goes for longer than normal and when it returns it shows me the option to “add to watchlist” rather than watch or download a given item.

If I force-close the app and then try and play something from my “continue watching” queue it generally works, but if I “go to show” it works 50/50 but if I “go to season” after “go to show” then it fails 100% and nothing I subsequently look at has a “watch” option, even items that did moments before. Selecting any media only offers “Add to Watchlist”.

Tested again on Client Version# 2025.0(704) and this problem persists.

Browse to any show from the Library, “go to show”, or “go to season” and the only option is “add to watchlist”

Do you mean you are long pressing?

So from CW you are long pressing on poster hitting “go to show”. hitting back then hitting “go to season”?

@BigWheel I was not long pressing, just normal navigation. The only button that was available upon entring (season/episode) was “add to watchlist”.

That said, with today’s update (724) it appears to be working normally on all devices.

I will now get down to actually trying it out and reviewing features.
