User Reviews

Reviewers consistently report an ad-heavy experience, unreliable Chromecast support, frequent playback crashes and slow performance, and login/session issues. Content availability and quality are also criticized, with a limited catalog and lacking audio formats. Overall the app’s usability is poor due to interruptions from ads and stability problems.

Pros

Cons

Excessive ads and inability to skip/remove ads, including after paying for premium
Chromecast/casting problems: frequent crashes, pauses, and unreliable playback
Playback instability: frequent crashes and slow performance/buffering
Login issues: needing to log in daily or losing account session
Limited content/quality: small catalog and lack of higher audio formats; some new releases only stereo

- Streaming to Chromecast fails half the time. - 15-20 ads every 15 minutes Couldn't be worse

I've had to reset the Android TV version of this app several times which means I have to login again. I think it's data can corrupt if I shut power to the tv box. Mobile/Tablet version works ok if all you are going to do is watch videos. Does not let you choose streaming quality. Casting from phone to tv did not work. Better off using in the web browser or use Hermit to make an icon for a webapp of their website. That way you do not need to update the app which may mean bring even more bugs

worst app ever, controlls for chrome cast does not exist... you start season 1 ep1, you cant choose which episode, the only button there is is pause and that doesn't work so when you stop watching it just keeps playing so next time you're watching you're in the middle of episode 7 of season 8...
