History Hit Reviews 

Great app for History lovers! I love history so I loved finding this app! There’s so much to choose from to watch and learn! I used my free trial to the fullest and will definitely subscribe! It’s so worth it.

Agree with many users reviews. Despite never changing my password, I was logged out of my account and despite multiple attempts to reset my password, no emails were sent with instructions. Instead my account gets locked due to “multiple login fails” and customer service is absolutely non-existent in helping solve the issue. They did cancel my subscription eventually after multiple back and forth emails although I don’t actually believe my feedback or criticism will be taken into consideration as multiple users have experienced the same.

Visiting Scotland this summer reignited my interest in history again - but not reading boring books or watching 2-hour documentaries. I love the bite-size episodes on interesting topics on everyday life (ie. what people ate, how they lived, customs and traditions of the time). History Hits captures all of this authentically and invitingly through the stories their hosts and historians tell.

I subscribe to both the video and podcast streams and enjoy both immensely. Their wide range of topics allows me to select an area and do a deep dive or just skim the surface.

Paid, couldn't access, spent weeks back and forth via email trying to get access established or refund. Customer services did nothing to help. 1 year later, they're trying to tale ANOTHER year's subscription and again are ignoring emails. I've had to block them with my bank and report them for taking money without delivering access to their services. They are a shambles.

Great to be able to find the kind of content I like and, by subscribing, I've got them ad-free, a massive improvement on Spotify!!

Gone Medieval is my main choice, but plenty of other goodies as well.

1. Last year (2024) signed up for a free period,
2. I tried to cancel the subscription before the end of free period and after logging in, I was directed to 'manage my subscription', however then the system claimed i wasn't logged in. Sent me to 'log in' and the whole situation was repeated.
3. I sent an email to support to cancel free period - never got a reply
4. I was charged an annual subscription fee. €29.99
5. I still can't log in or get any support
What is going on?

I have had History hit for just over 1year without an issue. However, upon renewal for year 2, I was logged out of the service. I have tried to re-log in, but I get a message saying "due to multiple log-in's your account is locked"

Despite requesting information on the support email, all I get is "a password re-set has been emailed to you" But no such email has ever been recieved!!!!

Totally fed up and have cancelled next year's renewal. But still unable to use up what I have paid for.

Customer Service is non-existent and they clearly have no interest in keeping customers.

Overall I enjoy History Hit. Two requests:
stop interrupting women guest historians and listen more as you do with male guest historians; level the audio - I couldn't watch the Lucy Worsley episode on Jane Austen since the volume to hear Ms. Worsley caused Dan Snow to wake the neighbors.

Love History Hit so much!! :)

Ive paid for 2 month's because I tried to fix the problem first time and tried a second time, and money has been taken out of my account and yet the payment is still saying it’s pending on the orders and I STILL CANNOT WATCH anything. THESE PEOPLE DO NOT ANSWER YOUR EMAILS OR RESPOND to nothing

I would have loved to see the possibility to add comments per documentary or to ask for specific questions to the authors since we pay to get the material. I was so disappointed with the Knights Templar documentary, that i almost asked for a refund, but it would have been unfair to the other authors. Good library, but full of old subjects :D

Great information, excellent presenters, love it.

There's so much to choose from that I'm watching parts of each because I can't wait to see them. My only critique is that some of them don't have the choice to have the words displayed & it's difficult to understand what they're saying.

I am absolutely in love with History Hit. I get regular updates on my favorite podcasts, which are (in no particular order) The Ancients, Gone Medieval, Not Just the Tudors, and Betwixt the Sheets. I also love the documentaries on the Channel where I can see video of the interesting sites.
I am a professional in the Medical Field and I started by getting into true crime. I have become a big fan of the 1400's through the 1600's, and hearing about the mundane lives of normal people is my jam. These shows absolutely are a part of my nerdy self care routine.

Not what I expected it’s just a bunch of documentaries with very few pictures or video clips. I was expecting it to be a documentary where the person was at that site not sitting in an office telling me a story so that was disappointing.

Love this channel. The documentaries are fantastic. Educational and entertaining, you can’t beat that!

I love Hit History, however there is a problem with shutting down a site after starting to watch, only to find that I’ve forgotten what I was watching and it just doesn’t just appear when I connect again, with a resume button. I would like you to have a “resume watching” page on opening, as other sites do. 😔

Love this channel, this arrangement off historical information and I do not have enough hours in a day to watch and listen to everything I would like to. These are my kind off people, can talk about all facets off history all day. :)
