I loved the original app, but the new version won't open and none of my account data or saved shows carried over. It feels like a completely different and worse experience. I just want the old version back! ### 1/5 — Jeet Shekhawat *2026-01-18* Not working ### 1/5 — Waste *2026-01-09* మడిచి గుద్దలో పెట్టుకో నీ అప్ ### 1/5 — All movies *2025-12-31, version 8.0* It those not play any movie ### 1/5 — Not as advertised *2025-12-20, version 8.0* Error 153 when I want to play a movie… bizarre ### 1/5 — I’ve yet to be able to watch a movie *2025-12-12, version 8.0* I can’t get any movie to work. ### 3/5 — No tv shows? *2025-12-08* The description indicates that series are available, but the downloaded app only headers and describes movies, not the its implied TV shows. ### 5/5 — Every movie *2025-12-08* Only a front picture, no video in every movie It’s wastage of time to use it ### 4/5 — Arche *2025-12-06, version 8.0* Pronvi ### 1/5 — Bogus app *2025-11-26, version 8.0* Cant play anything.

Fail. This isn’t the real Crackle. That app is gone. ### 1/5 — Yuck *2026-04-02, version 8.0* Not sure what happened to Crackle but the set up is absolutely AWFUL. Not able to search for a show on the app unless it’s through AI but it’s trying to guess what it thinks you’re wanting to watch. Also I can’t even navigate through anything without having to watch a damn ad. Only had it downloaded on my phone for 2 minutes immediately deleted ### 1/5 — Not the real Crackle streaming service *2026-03-19* Was disappointed to learn that the real Crackle is gone. This app is some scam to trick people into thinking it is the original Crackle previously owned by Sony Entertainment. That Crackle is gone. ### 1/5 — Cleaner *2026-03-01, version 8.0* Unable to watch movie ### 1/5 — Not working *2026-02-27* Error 153 video configuration error.
