### 1/5 — Don’t Bother

*2024-05-22, version 3.26*

Not sure how they even get away with listing this app. Its totally useless, won’t play any lectures what so ever. Don’t waste your time!

### 1/5 — If you are professor….PLEASE DON’T USE THIS PROGRAM!

*2023-09-09, version 3.26*

It is a near impossible act and time consuming pain trying to access any type  of lectures  uploaded on ANY KALTURA PRODUCT. Because of this company’s security issues these videos are rejected by browsers on Apple and most on Windows even if you give access to cookies.PLEASE DO NOT USE KALTURA TO RECORD AND STREAM YOUR LECTURES. Especially, if you require a huge workload on tight deadlines. You’re setting your students up to fail. For the love of God or whatever you care about please stream on anything else.

### 1/5 — It’s unusable for mobile app

*2023-08-25, version 3.26*

I have a iPhone 11 iOS 16.6. It does not load past the Kaltura logo

### 1/5 — Not accessible for IPad use

*2023-05-31, version 3.25*

Note to Universities: PLEASE DO NOT USE KALTURA. 

It is so frustrating for many students who use an iPad for their work or need to access lectures through mobile devices. And it is 2023 so this is a common thing for most students. Honestly, just go read all the other 1 star reviews and those are my same complaints. Makes it insanely difficult to manage school lectures and videos. I have to barrow my husbands laptop every time I need to view something that is only accessible through Kaltura.

### 1/5 — App Needs Some Work

*2023-05-10, version 3.25*

App won’t load, freezes on the loading screen.

### 1/5 — Nothing Works on Mobile

*2023-02-07, version 3.24*

I’ve spent an hour trying to play an audio recording of my class on my phone. Whenever I tried to access the webplayer on my phone browser I got a message saying I needed to install 3rd party session cookies. Well that’s great except no mobile search engine has the option to allow that. Absurd. So I’ve come here hoping that I could pop in the url for the class audio recordings and what do you know this app ALSO doesn’t work. I can’t believe they made a website for students that universities (for some odd reason are actually using) and didn’t think to have some sort of mobile access? The absolute lack of foresight and ability to make the website work on mobile devices and then the gaul to release this godforsaken app which doesn’t work at all is just an insane blunder for not just the developers but any institution that is foolish enough to use anything this company creates.

### 1/5 — trash

*2022-11-20, version 3.21*

this app is literal garbage , deletes your video without any warning because it had trouble uploading and then you are stuck having to do it all over again

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2022-08-15, version 3.21*

App doesn’t connect with linked sites. Doesn’t even read the URL. Very basic and lacks compatibility with iPads

### 1/5 — LWilliams2

*2022-04-14, version 3.20*

App is worthless. Will not accept my site address and have never been able to use it once. Needs to be removed from the market.

### 1/5 — iPad app is just the iPhone app made bigger

*2022-03-29, version 3.20*

My biggest complaint with this app is the functionality. I prefer to use the iPad multitask feature when listening to lectures so I have my note-taking app on the other half of the screen. The kaltura app does not support multitasking, so I’m stuck using the browser version to listen to lectures. Unfortunately, the mobile browser version does not seem to have the option of changing playback speed, so you’re stuck listening to each lecture at 1x speed if you want to multitask. I don’t know what my medical school pays for this service, but for the glitchy functionality on the student end, they’d have to be overpaying.

### 1/5 — Nothing has changed since previous reviews

*2022-02-10, version 3.20*

Some of the other reviews are over a year old, so I gave this app a chance to see if the issues everyone is describing have been resolved. It seems the app was updated a month ago, so they should have resolved these issues, right?

Nope. Nothing has changed. The only option is to copy/paste the url for the video you’re trying to watch, which is a waste of your time anyway because an error message pops up saying “failed to load data.” This app is literally pointless.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-01-10, version 3.20*

The app won’t even open absolute garbage

### 1/5 — Work meeting

*2021-12-08, version 3.19*

Doesn’t show the slide, doesn’t transition like it should. App is terrible.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2021-04-19, version 3.16*

Yikes

### 1/5 — SSO Doesn’t Work

*2021-03-15, version 3.16*

If your institution uses Single Sign On (SSO), meaning you sign into one place to get access to everything, this app will not work at all for you. Kaltura clearly doesn’t even have the basics figured out.

### 1/5 — Can't load any videos in your domain

*2021-02-18, version 3.16*

Don't bother with the app if your school has its own domain. Pasting direct links doesn't even work, literally the most basic feature. Opening from the browser also doesn't work. Pasting the link that comes with the "open in app" also doesn't work. Literally useless.

### 1/5 — Didn’t do anything

*2021-02-05, version 3.16*

It couldn’t find a single website. I can’t imagine there is someone out there who got it to work.

### 1/5 — Welcome comrades!

*2020-11-30, version 3.15*

Being forced to use an app that either doesn’t work or lacks any user friendly interface. No freedom to choose an alternate platform. Kaltura user for over 2 years through multiple versions now.

### 1/5 — I mean

*2020-09-22, version 3.14*

I’m a junior in computer engineering. I couldn’t get it to work. Maybe I’m stupid or maybe like the other reviews said... this app could use some improvement.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not Mobile-Friendly

*2026-05-28, version 3.30*

Kaltura only works on laptops and desktops. Don’t waste your time trying to make it work on your phone. I’d give it zero if I could!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-01-29, version 3.30*

Don’t download app you’re better off using application on website.

### 1/5 — So many bugs

*2025-08-26, version 3.30*

This never loads properly, links aren’t “clickable”, and videos constantly pause

### 1/5 — App is an atrocity

*2025-04-05, version 3.28*

I literally have the canvas app. I spent 50 minutes just trying to embed a video into my media gallery because I have to use this stupid media-space. Newsflash it’s blank. There is no way to add a video. There is a reason this app barely even has two stars. I have no idea why canvas chooses to use this app. Do not bother trying to use if you are on mobile. The idea of a college using this platform is literally insane. Stay away from this app. I have never left a review so of if I did it’s really that bad.

### 1/5 — Does not work on iPad Pro

*2025-02-12, version 3.28*

Just ridiculous to now work on an iPad. This is how ALOT of students do school work.I just cannot believe this app a being used by any university. Students pay for their classes and shouldn’t have to depend on an inefficient app to get full points. Update the app or retire it so schools will not use it!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2024-12-03, version 3.28*

Terrible app that doesn’t work. Why would a university use this horrible application?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t have a real ipad app

*2024-10-03, version 3.28*

The ipad app is just the dimensions of the mobile app, but on the ipad.

Extremely lazy app development.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t upload videos through my school blackboard

*2024-09-29, version 3.28*

Most garbage software feels like I’m back in the early 200s using this. Unfortunately my professor requires this to turn in projects for my public speaking class. Turning in the project is harder than making the actual speech because every time I upload my speech through Kaltura it uploads it as an image not the full video. Don’t recommend and professors shouldn’t use this garbage for students who pay for the course.

### 1/5 — Horrible and poorly designed

*2024-07-26, version 3.26*

Every single link I try to put on the app it doesn’t work. This app deserves no stars and needs to be removed from the store. 
I’m using it for college and I thought I could group videos but I can’t get any links to work. 
This app is poorly designed by some incompetent amateur that probably looked up a video on YouTube on how to make a app and skipped through the video.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2024-06-20, version 3.26*

Tried several time and could not get sign onto the app

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great for podcasting.

*2020-07-03, version 3.12*

Or vodcasting.

### 5/5 — Works Well When Configured

*2020-03-04, version 3.9*

The app needs to be configured in the site you are accessing.  We have had good success using it for our configured site.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2019-10-10, version 3.4*

Very intuitive and super responsive

### 5/5 — Best bit so far.

*2017-07-19, version 2.0.3*

Best bit so far.    Way too many acronyms, embarrassing.

### 4/5 — Good for on-the-go video

*2024-10-24, version 3.28*

To watch video in ‘podcast’ mode from mobile and to download video to view later offline, this app works well.

### 4/5 — Unintuitive

*2020-09-14, version 3.14*

But works

### 2/5 — Problem loading images and loading filters

*2019-08-28, version 3.2*

This app has good potential, great for skimming through media. 

When trying to open up an individual media item, it will not load. 

Also, when trying to sort media items via further filters after searching, all media disappears.

If these issues could be fixed it would make this a 5 star app.
