User Reviews

PlayOn Cloud enables cloud recording and offline viewing from multiple streaming services, with a pay-as-you-go credits model and easy scheduling. Users praise offline downloads, flexibility, and travel usefulness. However, recurring complaints center on aggressive in-app promos, changes/removal of channels, download reliability issues, and slow/support. Overall the app is valued for offline access and cross-platform recording, but reliability and aggressive upsell are common concerns.
Pros
  • Offline access via cloud recordings and downloads for watching without internet.
  • Pay-as-you-go recording credits instead of a fixed subscription.
  • Easy scheduling and broad platform support for recording from multiple sources.
  • High-quality recordings with some ad-skipping capabilities.
  • Convenient for travel and moving recordings to a PC or device.
Cons
  • In-app popups and upsell promotions feel excessive.
  • Removal or limitations of channels and services (e.g., YouTube/Vudu removal, Disney+/Hulu changes) with poor communication.
  • Download reliability issues: slow starts, queues, freezes, or downloads failing.
  • Weak customer support and slow responses/tickets.
  • Cluttered UI/ UX with large icons and frequent prompts.

To prep for some international travel I wanted to record and download some movies and TV shows to view offline and cast to chrome cast while I’m in the hotel. This has been working flawlessly until last night but now whenever my iPhone dims/locks the screen or a minimize the app the volume mutes and I have to go back to the app to increase the volume again. I use other apps but don’t have this issue and there have been no changes to IOS settings. It’s annoying so unless it’s fixed I’ll need to cancel my subscription

I have a ton of streaming subscriptions and am frustrated that they don’t allow you to download movies/shows to watch offline- or if they do- they are limited and most of them expire within 48 hours after you start to watch them, and you can only watch them once. Playon Cloud is easy to install and once you place shows in your queue- you can just close your device and let them download in the cloud. You can either set them to auto download to your device or go out using the downloader and put them on a PC. I chose to download them to a PC as MP4 files because I want to be able to move on and off my device as space is needed. If you download them to your iPad/iPhone - it places them inside your app where you can watch them, but you can’t move them- all you can do is delete them. If you ever want to watch them again- as long as they are still saved in your cloud files, you can still download them again, but that’s more of a pain than just putting them on a USB thumb drive. A little frustration at first when it took a couple hours for the recording to start going- but all got resolved. Apparently they do occasional server maintenance which will hold things up for a while.

The basic functionality of the app is here, but it is marred with a poor layout (giant icons using up space), and having entirely too many popups, liking constantly telling me to turn in Full HD mode when it is already turned on.
