### 4/5 — Good

*2020-09-27, version 2.0.8*

I honed think you should fix the problems it has it pauses when the movie is playin I I pause but it does it again great app I use to watch Harry Potter

### 3/5 — Somebody need to fix it lol

*2020-04-22, version 2.0.8*

I have been using it in the past, and it has been great! Now every time I click on the app, it will pop up but then automatically disappear/close.

### 3/5 — Help?

*2020-04-21, version 2.0.8*

It was amazing, but not since I updated it, now it won’t even let me open up the app I tried to uninstall it and install again but it still glitches.

### 4/5 — Random exit app

*2020-04-05, version 2.0.8*

I give this 4 stars because when I watch a movie I get a quit app pop up and I’m confused on why it popped up asking “are you sure you want to leave” when I haven’t pressed any button or anything it’s just asks me then I press no and nothing works after

### 4/5 — Can’t look at shows or movies

*2020-03-09, version 2.0.7*

Can’t look at any shows or movies because it only has trailers there is no play button

### 3/5 — This app is awesome

*2019-12-26, version 2.0.7*

I give 3 stars cuz it needs to be updated because I can’t watch tv shows the links wouldn’t work for me right now but other then that the app is amazing

### 4/5 — Apple TV connection fail (AirPlay)

*2019-11-18, version 2.0.7*

This app is really up to date with movies and tv shows. It’s main caveat though is when you try to connect it with air play on Apple TV. When the phone goes on lock screen, the transmition gets INTERRUPTED. This is annoying. Please fix it

### 4/5 — You can’t watch movies...

*2019-09-30, version 2.0.7*

This is a really good app on the app store but I certainly don't think that 1 dollar is the right price for a app that lets you track movies, not watch em, I think this would be at least free if you cant watch movies,other than that I think the app would be fine

### 4/5 — Cant watch anything on new phone!

*2019-08-23, version 2.0.7*

So i originally got this app on my iphone 7 a couple months back and it worked great, but after upgrading to the Iphone XS i havent been able to watching any movies or shows. The app doesn’t let me click on am episode or movie i want to watch.

### 4/5 — Great, but somethings wrong....

*2019-08-07, version 2.0.7*

So this can give me free movies right? But here’s a problem. it is always laggy, and sometimes it doesn’t let me watch as show

### 3/5 — It won’t load movies

*2019-07-30, version 2.0.7*

I click on the play button for the movie and it pops up saying direct and it just keeps loading but no links come up. It says sent link I don’t know if it’s the app or my iPad. My friend has it on her tablet and it works fine. It’s disappointing.

### 4/5 — Plz fix

*2019-07-08, version 2.0.7*

It doesn’t show the play button I tried to sing into a account and did it still didn’t work I have an iphone se plz fix☹️

### 3/5 — I’m confused

*2019-05-28, version 2.0.6*

I would rate this 4 stars but after an update I can’t watch anything anymore no play button shows up to send me to a link it’s just there

### 4/5 — FIX THE WAITING FOR MEDIA LOADING AND AIR PLAY SUPPORT ONE

*2019-05-26, version 2.0.6*

Every time I fast forward it says on the screen please wait for media loading if u could fix that it would be great and fix the airplay button because it doesn’t have sound thanks bye. :)

### 3/5 — Can’t watch anything

*2019-05-22, version 2.0.6*

I’ve used this app before many times and never had any issues but I ended up deleting it and just re-downloaded it today. However whenever I click on a tv series and on an episode nothing happens no link shows up so I can’t watch anything. How can I fix this

### 4/5 — Fix this problem please

### 1/5 — Load

*2020-08-05, version 2.0.8*

Evertime I want to watch something in here and it starts to find its links. It takes almost forever to find something but I never get any responds and also I quit the app more than multiple times but it is still the same which is why this needs to be fixed!!

### 1/5 — Barely functional

*2020-07-08, version 2.0.8*

Some titles work they play for 5 to 15 minutes then stop press play again goes back to the start will run another 15 minutes and stop press play again goes back to start sometimes it plays all the way through but very rarely. The latest problem is besides not getting any choices/Channel to pick from as far as who’s broadcasting which is more often than not, Then you’ll get 140+ of the same choice/Channel to pick The broadcast from and none of them work. Two stars only because someone tried to put together a nice webpage but other than that don’t waste your time unless you’ve got a lot of time and patience to waste

### 1/5 — I honestly can’t even review this app

*2020-04-26, version 2.0.8*

The second I turn the app on it suddenly goes back to my home screen. I don’t know if this is just happening by me but it’s seriously a problem!! I had this app a year ago and one day it just stopped working. I tried re-downloading it but it just made things worse. It first just wouldn’t let me click on anything but now I can’t even get in the app!! Someone please help me!! Thank you

### 1/5 — :(

*2019-12-16, version 2.0.7*

This app did not work the play button never came and I couldn’t ever watch my show. I payed $1 for this app hoping for the best and getting the worst. I contacted the support people and they never got back to me. I signed in and out multiple times, I also tried deleting and installing again. I also tried restarting my phone in hopes that it would work. I’d like to give this app 5 stars due to it working so well on my old phone yet it didn’t seem to on my newer phone :(

### 1/5 — Was but now isn't?

*2019-06-19, version 2.0.7*

Dev response is "the app isn't for watching movies, just for tracking" (something to that effect). Also, the dev name appears to have changed from Scoville to what it currently is. But...

....anyway, it was originally released with the ability to watch movies/shows. You got people to install the app based on said feature, then removed it so Apple wouldn't pull the app from the store. (Bait and switch)

### 1/5 — Broken

*2019-04-27, version 2.0.6*

The problem with this now is that there is no way to watch movies anymore because the play button won’t show and if it doesn’t show then there is no way to watch the movie your trying to watch hopefully this can be fixed

### 1/5 — Needs to be fixed

*2019-01-08, version 2.0.2*

1- Although the developers pretend to support iPad layout, the interface and all its forms are vertical and landscape mode isn’t supported. It is extremely uncomfortable.
2- The “My Watchlist” form is empty despite the login to trakttv.
3- The app crashes occasionally.
4- The developers never answer emails although I paid the iap.

### 2/5 — Fix asap

*2019-07-14, version 2.0.7*

I bought this app to watch movies like everyone else but it doesn’t show the links to any movie/tv shows if this is a bug please fix cause really like the app but can’t really enjoy it if I can’t watch any movies or tv shows. Please fix ASAP.

### 2/5 — Apps just not the same😩

*2019-06-03, version 2.0.6*

This app no longer works anymore as it did for the links. Idk if it’s the update but there no longer is a play button aside from the only button for trailer play. Please fix.

### 2/5 — I just want to watch my show

*2019-03-31, version 2.0.4*

I just want to watch my show. I can’t watch it on other apps or on cable for reasons. Every time I press a link it takes forever to load. When it does load it buffers every 15 seconds. I am not joking. This is happening on all my devices. Sometimes I don’t even see a link. Please fix this problem. I want to catch up on my favorite shows.

### 5/5 — Yo!

*2020-09-03, version 2.0.8*

You should make this so we can stream it to our tv. Other than that it’s an awesome app.

### 5/5 — Amazing app but...

*2020-05-28, version 2.0.8*

This app is amazing i enjoy using it a lot and others should too, if you want to watch movies or tv shows this is an amazing app, I only have 1 problem that isn’t that big but I kinda think it is, when it pauses then plays when the phone or tab doesn’t get signal it saids please wait for media loading and it stays there and doesn’t go away for the whole episode, plz fix this I rlly enjoy this app but that’s like the only bad thing about this app, plz fix but otherwise 20/10 app amazing

### 5/5 — It won’t play.

*2019-10-21, version 2.0.7*

It would always have the play icon on the movie and now it doesn’t.

### 5/5 — Problem

*2019-07-12, version 2.0.7*

I had this app on my iPhone X and it worked perfectly fine but now I got the iPhone XR and it won’t let me watch any movies it doesn’t show the play button it just shows the movie and that’s all can you please fix this !

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2019-07-07, version 2.0.7*

This app is everything! You can watch tv shows and movies and more! Anything old and anything new, I love this app so much and I have recommended it to everyone I know!

### 5/5 — Lag

*2019-04-07, version 2.0.4*

Really the only issue that I have with this app is that there is a little bit of lag when watching the movies/shows but other then that great app

### 5/5 — Great movie app

*2019-04-04, version 2.0.4*

This is a great app to watch movies on. The only problems I have is that some shows and movies don’t have links so I can’t watch and it would be nice if I could maximize the screen so what I’m watching can be bigger. Other than this it is a great app.

### 5/5 — Great app 💯

*2019-03-31, version 2.0.4*

This app is amazing. I was looking for an app to watch free movies but this one is just what i wanted. It may take a long time to load but, the waiting is worth it!!!

### 5/5 — Download option

*2019-03-19, version 2.0.4*

Add the option for the download so that we can play offline videos when we are in trip and no internet...

### 5/5 — Needs subtitle option

*2019-03-16, version 2.0.4*

This is is great and everything but it really missing the subtitle option.

So I'm asking if you guys can add the subtitle option
