User Reviews

User feedback is mixed. Many praise the catalog size, the rent-or-buy flexibility, and some note responsive support. However, repeated issues with stability, library syncing, search reliability, update-induced incompatibilities, and problematic download/purchase flows dominate the reviews.

Pros

Wide catalog with a large selection of titles.
Flexible rent-or-buy options.
Responsive customer support and quick issue resolution.

Cons

Frequent crashes and overall instability (crashes, freezes, JSON errors).
Library not loading or empty, purchases not syncing across devices, wishlist inaccessible.
Search functionality is broken or unreliable (inability to search by author/title, search bar disappearing).
Update/compatibility issues (new updates break features, compatibility problems with older iOS versions).
Download/purchase flow problems (downloads fail, need to repurchase after updates, license/invalid content errors).

Recent reviews

I can’t even get the app to work now. I kept getting some kind of connection error which made no sense. And now, after purchasing a new item the app refuses to load.

Downpour recently made changes to their platform. It went from 100% reliable to garbage. There was no warning. The app still doesn’t work properly. I can’t see my wishlist from the app, can’t search for new titles in the app, and I have to do everything online from their website. I’ve signed in and out of the app and deleted and redownloaded the app. If you buy a new title from their website it won’t automatically load into your list of purchased titles on the app. I have to delete the app and download it again for any new purchase to show up. This is absolute garbage!!
