A couple of weeks ago the Fawesome app on ROKU started acting up. After an ad break, instead of resuming where it left off, it will sometimes start playing a completely different movie from the beginning. If I go back to the movie I was watching, IT starts from the beginning also, thus forcing me to skip to where I left off every time. This is about a 50/50 prospect so far but when it heppens it's often several times in a row. I didn't want to uninstall, reinstall and restart my queue from scratch but I'm pretty much at that point. My web search has found zero instances of this reported anywhere else, so I'll report back if I'm able to resolve this issue so other's can find and benefit from it.
I have experienced some wonky behavior that occured in the past using Fawesome when it returns from an ad break, but not very often, and not recently. I just chalked it up to an ad-server issue. I don't remember it ever starting a different movie though.
If it becomes a persistent issue, you should reach out to the developers at https://fawesome.tv/home/ and select the "contact us" link which will redirect you to https://futuretodayinc.com/contact-us and select the support email link (support@futuretodayinc.com).

Thanks for the feedback.
Update: I removed the FAWSOME ROKU app, the FAWSOME Horror ROKU app, and the FAWESOME Crafts ROKU app. I restarted the ROKU set top box. I reinstalled the main FAWESOME ROKU app only.
The good: The app retained my account information so my queue was intact.
The bad: When I tried to replay the movie I was watching, the ROKU froze and forced me to do another restart. After that It loaded with no issues. The movie i was originally watching picked up where I left off but after the ad break, it started up the next movie in my queue instead of continuing the current one. When I went back to watch the previous movie, the app froze again. So I, again restarted the ROKU and this time it did play but, from the beginning still.
Will try the developer route next.
Downloaded the Fawesome app to my Roku TV for the first time today (because it was the only one with the movie I wanted to watch) and this (kicking me into a completely different movie after one of the 25 ad breaks) has happened to me TWICE already. Can't even get through a 90 minute movie. Not really inspiring me to keep this Fawesome app.
I had the same problem. Deleted app on Roku.
Installed it on the firestick and worked fine. Even though still too many commercials didn't seem as many as on Roku.
So if you really want this app I would recommend buying a firestick
