### 2/5 — Love the movies but app is horrendous

*2025-09-14, version 16.1.3*

Watching this on my TV with Apple TV. Tons of issues. Functional issues,occasional movies in wrong genres, difficulty reading some movie titles, and the search feature is just bad.
The search feature is probably the most frustrating thing. First, it won’t let me do voice to text or even type a title. I have scroll with the remote to each letter and click it. After each click it has ta 3-5 second pause while it slowly refreshes the list. Have a typo or backspace to delete a word? One backspace, wait 3-5 seconds to refresh, hit backspace again, wait 3-5 seconds. It’s almost like the database isn’t indexed or something. 
In the search or genre sections, the movies don’t have a text typed title showing, you have to read the thumbnail image. Especially with older movies, these are poor quality scans of a movie poster and it’s too small or blurry. You have to click it to go into the movie start screen to see what the title is and even then you can’t always read the funky old school font or, because a trailer is playing behind it, the background and logo might blend or bleed. 
That’s all I’m willing to type out but there’s several more problems

### 3/5 — Great content when it works

*2025-08-27, version 16.1.2*

Only had the app a couple of weeks but we love the content. The problem is the app is super buggy.  Very often a movie will cut off randomly and start playing the movie “Static”. Always that movie. Always. Whenever you try to get back into the movie you were already watching, you have to watch the trailers again. I’ve heard CCR playing over dinosaur fights and Marlon Wayons scream enough in the past week to last me a lifetime. Tried letting “Static”play through once thinking that would fix it but nope, keeps coming back.  Also if you decide to watch a different movie a lot of times the old movie audio will play over the new movie selection. CS write back quickly but the problem is still consistently happening.  If the bugs are fixed, the app will be AMAZING.

### 2/5 — Better but…..

*2024-03-01, version 16.0.0*

The new update is better looking for the menus and the live schedule for the 12.9" iPad Pro. But when you switch to full screen, the screen locks which direction the landscape mode is in and never switches. Which for my display is upside down. Wish someone would have tested this before sending it out.

### 1/5 — Plays the wrong episode

*2024-01-26, version 15.0.2*

Kept playing the wrong episode of the show I wanted to watch.  Sat through a lot of commercials just for it to keep playing the wrong episode.  
Garbage app

### 1/5 — buggy/incomplete

*2023-10-30, version 15.0.1*

I'm not sure why this app doesn't change orientations correctly. Will drive you crazy by always opening in portrait mode and you have to browse shows etc in that orientation until you view, then  it changes to landscape. When you exit it once again goes into portrait mode. 

This will drive you mad over time. 

Also the Apple TV app defaults to subtitles on and nothing you do will make it default to subtitles off. The minute you open a new show after turning off subtitles, guess what?

Subtitles are back on. 

If you want to be driven crazy by a set of apps you need to pay for, download and subscribe to this one.

### 1/5 — What happened?

*2023-10-14, version 15.0.1*

I reinstalled this app after a couple of years and it’s terrible. Ads play OVER the movies and there’s too many of them. I gave up on the app not even 30 minutes into a movie. I can’t pause the movie. Too bad it’s not like before.

### 1/5 — Used to be great

*2023-07-25, version 15.0.0*

App runs commercials even when logged in and subscribed
Movie selection has declined badly.
Used to be great, better than Arrow, Shudder, etc. So disappointing.

### 3/5 — Not a fan of the new update.

*2023-03-25, version 15.0.0*

Why would you put the app in portrait orientation instead of landscape?

### 2/5 — Loading

*2023-01-05, version 14.850*

More often than not, movies won’t load.

### 1/5 — Once good, now trash

*2022-10-10, version 14.850*

The app is completely dysfunctional now.

### 3/5 — Ro1d

*2022-01-23, version 14.500*

Needs work on the UI but content is solid…

### 1/5 — Midnight Plup

*2021-12-28, version 14.500*

Plenty of strange movies but the main problem is is you pay for a month of movies on premium and you only receive one week!Its a rip-off!!

### 1/5 — login isn’t recognized

*2021-10-24, version 14.500*

so can’t get a premium account.  very cool!

### 1/5 — Cancelled My Subscription

*2026-05-12, version 16.1.7*

Seriously if you guys want to make money, fix the damn app. I'm a subscriber, or I was....among other issues, the app would not play any movies - it kept sending me to the subscription page...and I have a subscription. Tried everything including hitting the "restore purchases" button on the sub page. Oh that doesn't work...ON ANY DEVICE - not my iPhone or any of my iPADS. My only recourse is to cancel my subscription. Because why am I paying if I can't watch anything??????

### 1/5 — Was great, now doesn’t work

*2025-12-03, version 16.1.4*

Starting a few days ago, the app closes every time you scroll in any direction.

### 1/5 — good idea, but “exploitation” category? seriously?

*2025-07-26, version 16.1.2*

the title itself is explanatory. the exploitation and sexualization of women being killed in certain horror films is disgusting. i get that they are made and it’s a genre, but is it ethical or moral for women to be perceived this way? absolutely not. deleted the app after this, it’s disgusting. sad to see

### 1/5 — HELLO

*2024-09-28, version 16.0.2*

i have the free trial but its not working?? this is my first time ever trying this app and its saying im not subscribed even though i just did

### 1/5 — Can’t sign up

*2024-08-31, version 16.0.2*

I don’t know what the issue is. I created an account and hit the monthly option then I can’t watch. I have to subscribe. I imagine this is a pay on the website and watch on the app deal. Frustrating

### 1/5 — Pure theft don’t pay for premium!!!

*2024-07-30, version 16.0.2*

I paid for yearly subscription and have not been given full access! Requested a refund but have not heard back from customer service! Have contacted apple for full refund! This use to be a good service now it’s just a scam! I’m expecting a full refund if not I may have to use legal action!

### 1/5 — App not synced with my subscription

*2024-07-06, version 16.0.2*

I originally had the ConTv app and subscription but was forced to change to Midnight Pulp . I signed up for a monthly subscription to Midnight Pulp back in April and SINCE APRIL have not been able to watch any content on the app. I have been charged several months already but I still cannot watch any content. Whenever I select a tv show or film I am redirected to a choose your subscription plan screen . I already sent an email to customer support ( if you can call it that) back in May and was sent a response that there was in issue with the servers not syncing subscriptions. This was back in early May. As of July 5th I’m still not able to watch and tv shows or content of any sort. I’ve been charged every month since April for a monthly subscription but can not watch anything . This app is incredibly frustrating .

### 1/5 — Free trial doesn't work

*2024-06-05, version 16.0.2*

I'm on a free trial yet I have no premium benefits.  Garbage app.

### 1/5 — Too Many Bugs

*2024-04-01, version 16.0.0*

I really appreciate having this app available, but it's pretty annoying when it kicks me out every time I'm watching something or need to pause. It's just such a hassle to keep logging in over and over again.

### 1/5 — Good Concept, Bad App

*2024-04-01, version 16.0.0*

I am a huge horror movie fan and I also love the grind House movies from the 1970s and 60s, I also enjoy the exploitation collection here on Midnight Pulp, so keep growing and keep updating and maybe add some new features to, and one more thing, I would love to see a extreme underground collection here on Midnight Pulp, and I would maybe love to see the German splatter films collection here on Midnight Pulp, so the response to the developer I love midnight pulp, I can’t get enough of Midnight Pulp, so keep growing and keep updating the app and keep adding more movies to Midnight Pulp,

### 5/5 — Love Love Love the movies available on this app!!!

*2024-02-05, version 15.0.3*

Difficult to find cult movies, movies I haven’t seen in decades, and plenty of new gems.  The most fun I’ve had searching for movies since Blockbuster closed!!! Get this app! And support the company by paying for the RX!!! But the free stuff is GREAT too!

### 5/5 — I love it

*2021-08-31, version 14.300*

Hugh content,,,, Live Channels and so far the App works great.

### 5/5 — Love The Selection

*2021-07-21, version 13.512*

Really great collection of all kinds of weird, fun movies.  Have enjoyed pretty much everything I’ve seen.  Playback and video quality are solid and the app has never given me problems.  Even upgraded to premium.  Like this app a lot!

### 5/5 — My favorite streaming app

*2020-10-22, version 13.512*

I grew up on campy and curly movies. This app is better than Netflix because it has everything Netflix, Hulu, hbo, etc. doesn’t have. It’s the stuff you have to search for in thrift stores and weird hard to find sites that make you pay double the regular price. Without Midnight Pulp I wouldn’t have access to all the wonderful and crazy films I love and am able to find now. I hope eventually I will be able to get the app on my ps4 or TV cause I’d love to be able to watch this films on a big screen easily, rather than having to hook up my laptop to my tv.
