### 4/5 — Overall good just a glitch that needs fixing

*2021-11-04, version 4.9.5*

If I go to my Home Screen and the video is playing in the background when I go back to it it’ll crash and I have to restart the episode all over again. It’s quite frustrating.

### 3/5 — GLITCH NONSTOP

*2021-10-18, version 4.9.5*

Hi Hello

I love the shows but please fix the ios glitches I can’t watch my show without being taken to the main page again and having to restart the app very annoying quite frankly! It didn’t used to be like this before not sure what happened my iPad is fully updated. Hopefully it gets resolved.

### 4/5 — My wife and I

*2021-10-06, version 4.9.5*

We are having problem to play on the iPhone 12 ones you get out the full screen you cannot see it again in full screen  please fix thank you beside that love it

### 3/5 — Can’t view without WiFi

*2021-08-27, version 4.9.5*

Pantaya use to be my go to app for streaming. The most annoying thing is not being able to watch without being connected to wifi! I don’t always have access to wifi so I don’t mind streaming on my cellular data but they’ve made that impossible!!
Please fix this!

### 3/5 — Good option

*2021-07-11, version 4.9.0*

I like to watch Pantaya because reminds me of Mexico and living in USA for 20 years is nice to watch all this Mexican movies.
I have to say that I don’t like that ever time I start a new show I have to watch all the previews over and over and if I click Skip the “punish “ you because the next show takes fooorever to start. 
That makes me think about canceling my subscription.

### 2/5 — Before starting up

*2021-03-29, version 4.7.4*

So I want to go ahead and download this app seems like it has a lot of good movies shows and I’ll that but some great actors that being said it was a process for me just to create an account first second even though I did and I was done finish creating my account the app crashes and tells me there’s an error...

### 3/5 — Not enough content.

*2020-12-08, version 4.6.1*

I got the app to try it out and see if they had classic movies section (like golden age of Mexican cinema, for example) for my parents since they love movies of that era and have difficulty finding movies online.

Not only do they not have that, they don’t even have a telenovela section ( to watch, say, a past novela)

They don’t have much of a variety, therefore not worth it.

### 5/5 — Great movies

*2020-09-29, version 4.5.0*

I’m in USA and I’m always watching movies English which is awesome but watching movies in Spanish feels more like home, the producers and actors are amazing !!! This movies have such a great messages the audio and the quality of the movies are phenomenal love it !!!! Get this app u won’t regret it ...

### 5/5 — The best of the best. 💋

*2020-08-13, version 4.4.2*

We as a Hispanic family could only let the rest know that this is a outstanding Quality and well enjoy time with the family and kiddos and friends thank you Pantaya for giving us the energy to enjoy our most beautiful roots of race’s and counting to see u grow.

### 2/5 — No wifi detected

*2020-05-26, version 4.3.2*

The content is ok. No super good, no super bad, just regular Latin movies all in the same place. But what I hate is the iphones app. Every time that I tried to play a movie they or series said no WiFi detected go to settings to change your preferences. The illogical of the situation Is that I always have reproduce with data. Y move it trying to put on and off and check if that way I can have streaming but does not work. I went to the app problema solution and redirects me to lions gate stock market

### 5/5 — I can’t cancel my trial

*2020-04-13, version 2.3.2*

I sent an email, bad protocol to cancel, there is no phone number to contact, is done thru another application, not thru them directly, had to switch to a lower paid subscription, until they contact me ...I don’t trust them...even to write a review you need a nick name, I typed and is not accepting

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Make sure you want this app before subscribing

*2022-10-18, version 5.2.0*

By far the worst app for me personally. The shows lag and will kick me out of app and I can’t even stream onto my larger screens. 
I’ve been trying to cancel since April 2022 and NOTHING. Have sent emails and they send me a dead end link where it doesn’t even allow me to cancel my subscription. Please make sure you’re willing to pay month to month for years because they’ll just give you the run around. Oh and they won’t refund my money. I haven’t used the app at all since April . Very disappointed customer and would not recommend.  Had to give one star .

### 1/5 — App is not user friendly

*2021-11-07, version 4.9.5*

Writing a review from the son of this account holder. I've been trying to subscribe my mom to this for an hour and they just don't seem to want to take my money???? Why is it so hard to create an account, reset a password, and subscribe to monthly service? You would think a company would have the basics down so they can take peoples money faster and easier. If my mom didn't want this app so bad, I would never pay for this. Do better.

### 1/5 — Does not work.

*2021-07-29, version 4.9.0*

I cannot download this app at all, I’ve tried it on iPhone 12 Pro, iPad, Apple TV. For whatever reason it’s not letting me download same issue on all the devices I mentioned. I click on get, it begins to act like it’s going to download then it stops. The Get button appears again I click to no avail tried rebooting devices and still doesn’t allow me to download . Pretty upset since I signed up on website and can’t download the app.

### 1/5 — No customer support

*2021-04-22, version 4.8.1*

I’ve been trying to communicate with the customer support because the system isn’t allowing me to acces my account I’ve emailed them like 2 times already they only ask if I’m watching from the USA and to keep specifying what is the issue. I even send a image of what the issue is. I also requested a password change but i never received the request link.I’ve been at it for a month and they keep taking my money without allowing me access.

### 1/5 — Many App issues

*2021-01-30, version 4.7.1*

I got the app several months ago under the free trial, before the trial expired I cancelled it however the offered another promotion with subscription being cheaper a month for only three months I accepted the promo to give it another try but till this day I can never watch a series or movie where I don’t encounter an issue. My biggest issue is it gives me an error that says WiFi no connection if I want to use my Data which is perfectly fine my data is always on, but it still gives me the error and doesn't let me watch anything. And I will say it’s only with Pantaya.. because I can stream Netflix with no issues and Disney+. As soon as I get the error I go into Netflix to try and no issues at all. 
So its definitely an issue with Pantaya. I have emailed them soo many times about the problem but it has not been resolved! It’s frustrating!

### 1/5 — Don’t trash your money No tires el dinero

*2020-10-03, version 4.5.0*

I signed up today around 6 pm 
 and was gonna get the 3 months special . 
Let me tell you how special it is doesn’t work after I signed up and put my card info I was not able to log in, I tried the I forgot my password 4 different times within the 2 hours after I signed and never got the link to reset password.   

Me inscribí alrededor de las 6pm e iva a recibir el especial de 3 meses deja te digo cual especial después de poner la información de mi tarjeta nunca pude entrar a mi cuenta luego trate olvidé contraseña 4 veces en las siguientes 2 horas y nunca recibí el enlace para cambiar mi contraseña.

### 1/5 — WILL OVER CHARGE WITHOUT PERMISSION

*2020-05-09, version 4.3.2*

I literally canceled my subscription the next day after getting this app and they are still charging my credit card.... this is a scam do not get this app they will steal from you..... i log in to my app and it clearly tells me i have to re subscribe but why are they still charging me is the question!?????????

Literalmente cancelé mi suscripción al día siguiente después de obtener esta aplicación y todavía están cargando mi tarjeta de crédito ... esto es una estafa, no obtengas esta aplicación. me conecto a mi aplicación  claramente me dice que tengo que volver a suscribirme, pero ¿por qué todavía me están cobrando es la pregunta? ?????????

### 1/5 — No sirve, it doesn’t works!!

*2020-05-04, version 4.3.2*

I found it interesting as it is a spanish movies and series app, downloaded it and started the trial time, however I was unable to log first day, I thought it may need time, tried the next day and same it said my user wasn’t recognized, then I tried to use in computer and it said my account was expired?? Then again in iphone and never worked, the 7 days trail passed without being able to login so I cancelled to avoid paying for a service that never worked 

Encontre este app y me pareció intersante por que parece tener buenas series y películas, hize el download y me inscribi atravez de el app, despues de recibir la confirmación no pude login, pense talvez hay que esperar, lo intente al siguiente dia y fue los mismo, y asi paso el periodo de prueba, imposible accesar, antes del dia de inicio he cancelado mi inscripción y reporte al app a Apple, esto parece un scam, al contacar a servicio al cliente respondió con preguntas y pidieron datos, despues contestó otra persona pidiendo datos de nuevo, y nunca solucionaron nada, pero obtuvieron mi apple user, he reportado esta app a Apple y me sugirieron cambiar password y mantener mi información confidencial, este es un posible scam!!

### 1/5 — Horrible experience

*2020-04-07, version 2.3.2*

I like the movies that they have but unfortunately i cannot watch any of them I have tried so many times to get a reset password link sent to my email but I have not received anything is so frustrating that I can’t login into my account to watch some of the movies that I payed for the app I would really appreciate it if someone can help me get this issue fixed . I noticed that is something that this app slacks a lot on not sending reset password links

### 1/5 — The worse app ever

*2020-03-23, version 2.3.1*

I downloaded the app cause I love Spanish tv shows and wanted to watch the new que leon movie, but the app doesn’t let me log in, its very frustrating because It keep saying error and when I try to open an new account it doesn’t let me choose the 5 dollars monthly plan, is like tricky cause only can choose the yearly plan, they really need to fix that problem, now I just want to delete the app and find something better!

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Better picture quality

*2022-05-11, version 5.2.0*

I love this app but the picture quality is not that great I gave them 5 stars because the content is excellent I would just like the picture quality to be more HD it feels like it’s 480p on my TV

### 5/5 — Great content

*2022-02-15, version 5.0.2*

The app is slick with a lot of great titles. High quality stuff that's different to what you get from all the other streaming services. Screen casting works perfectly and you don't get a million annoying notifications from the app either.

### 5/5 — English subtitles look to be coming more!

*2022-02-15, version 5.0.2*

Not a Spanish household but have friends that watch and watched some of this with them. I’ve noticed that there are more content available with English subtitles which helps us non native speakers.

### 5/5 — Great content and support

*2022-02-15, version 5.0.2*

Been using Pantaya for about 6 months and am really impressed with the quality of the shows and movies. There is nothing that compares for Spanish-speakers. Support team is very responsive if there is a problem which has not been the case for me.

### 5/5 — Captions Issue

*2022-02-13, version 5.0.2*

Captions Issue:  My rating is 5 stars but I’d like to see captions when I pause a movie.  This is helpful for language learners/non native speakers.  They disappear when you pause.  On Netflix you can still see the captions when you pause.

### 5/5 — Me encanta!

*2022-01-06, version 5.0.1*

Me encanta! The app works extremely well, the shows and movies are fun and I can watch movies with my family I can’t find anywhere else in the US for streaming. I can watch things with my mom and dad, my brothers and my Tia too!

### 5/5 — Good app but has some issues

*2021-09-21, version 4.9.5*

but does not play on my screen. I can only hear the shows but not see unless I power off my iPhone. Happens every time a call or texts comes in.

### 5/5 — Pantaya is the best!

*2021-07-03, version 4.9.0*

I had always been watching Netflix, and was getting so boring! I found out about Pantaya, and now I am enjoying from my favorite Mexican actor. It was time for a change, not just that but Mexican movies and series are always something different to enjoy.

### 5/5 — De Viaje Con los Derbez

*2021-05-31, version 4.8.2*

The show was very inspiring, very heartfelt. It has all the elements that a family needs these days when you find yourself apart from them and gives me hope to always love them no matter what’s the distance or the circumstances. Great production.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2021-04-25, version 4.8.1*

This movie app keeps you up to-date with latest latin american movies and some Spanish European movies as well i had it for three years and is worth every dollar I pay! A must have in your collection!
