### 1/5 — Don’t wast your memory.

*2024-02-08*

Too glitchy to be worth it. 
Too many commercials for themselves. 
“Ad Break 7/7” 5 of the ads are to watch movies you are already watching. The other 2 gun control ads. 
“Ad break 5/5” all 5 commercials are for movies you are watching. 
You get 5-7 minutes of movie for 2.5-3.5 minutes of commercials to watch a platform you are already watching. 
App will hang up halfway through a movie always at a an “Ad break”. With only way to watch the end of the movie is to start over at the beginning. Only to have the movie hang up halfway through again. 
All the free movie apps are bad. This one is the worst. The most commercials for amount of movie. 
The most freezing up. 
The worst layout to find a movie. 
The worst selection of movies. 
Every update makes the app perform worse than before the update. 
Save the memory and stay away from the app. You aren’t missing anything.

### 1/5 — Not bad but....

*2023-01-23, version 7.22.6*

Definitely needs work. My goodness an video streaming app, though be it free. That doesn’t have a favorites so you don’t have to hunt down what you want later, is just...well....stupid. Makes no sense! I can see why they have no search engine. They don’t have enough content to do this. A lot of their stuff is old but free. Plus they need to at least alphabetize their content. The way it is now is just a category with a mishmash of content. Idea of app...great. Format....is  terrible. From what I can see, there's no real support either. When you click on it..it jumps takes you to their other apps in the App Store! Bummer

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2022-03-09, version 7.22.6*

This app is absolutely horrible I couldn’t give it a zero so I gave it a one literally no movies that you wanna watch and other terror movies instead of normal movies I searched up so many movies I wanted to watch and they didn’t even I have them on there don’t get this app at all it takes five hours to load and there is literally ads every three seconds.

### 5/5 — Unlock the Latin America region.

*2021-09-19, version 7.18.703*

Dear, for pleasure only for your country the United States that they prefer you and you love it! Tired of using VPN app, enough is enough. I am an American, I am living in Latin America. 
Until when are you waiting to unblock the region in Latin America? Please

### 5/5 — Where I go to watch action films

*2021-08-16, version 7.18.5*

Popcornflix is hands down the best library of action and thriller movies. Their horror selection is pretty good too

### 5/5 — No Subscription Just Click and Play

*2021-08-13, version 7.18.5*

Some very interesting Horror and Sci fi I didn’t see any where. The best thing not having to sign up for anything.

### 5/5 — Lots of Content, But No Watch List or Search

*2021-07-27, version 4.37*

This app is made exclusively for impulse watching. There’s no Watchlist to save titles for future viewing. There’s no search function in the version for Apple TV to find movies you might want to see. There’s also no alphabetical or age organization; only titles in random order by category. That makes it terribly inefficient for busy viewers. For instance, if you find out a movie is available on Popcornflix using an app like Just Watch, it could take hours to actually find the movie in the Popcornflix app.

The iOS version permits you to register an account, but, since the Apple TV version does not contain a signin means and neither version permits a Watchlist, registering in the iOS version serves no purpose. 

The app is simply not ready for prime time.

### 1/5 — PopCommercialsCornTV

*2021-06-04, version 4.35*

The idea is great, I won’t knock that. A 90 minute movie (1 and a 1/2 hours) quickly becomes a 17 hour movie to get through with the commercials. I HATE commercials as we all do, but a commercial about every 2 minutes for a 90 minute movie makes the movie 100% unwatchable. Maybe if they offered a subscription for a couple of bucks a month that would be okay, but to have to sit through a movie that is extended from 1 1/2 hours to over 3 hours because of commercials is like watching TV, only regular television has LESS commercials. Until that gets fixed this is an immediate uninstall. After the first 35 minutes of trying to watch a movie I just gave up. It’s really just a waste of time at this point. I get that app developers need to make money, but with thousands of viewers there’s no way you aren’t making enough money to at least take half of the ads out. Uninstalled!

### 1/5 — You get what you pay for

*2021-02-15, version 4.35*

I am legally blind. When I tap on the picture of a movie or TV show it does not say the name of the movie or TV show using voiceover on an iPhone. It is very easy to make an app making sure that it is accessible to the blind. And as I said you get what you pay for it since you didn’t pay for anything you don’t really get good content. All the sci-fi movies are horror. Not bad but terrible even horrible. I don’t think I will be keeping this app. I went through the reviews and I only found one or two that were halfway decent reviews. Of the dozens of reviews I read only one came five stars and even that person complained about it.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2020-11-12, version 4.34*

After reading the reviews on this app I thought I’d give it a try. After downloading and signing up it crashed. every time I try to click on the app to sign up it would say that my email was already in use so I will go to sign in and it would crash again leaving me disappointed and forcing me to uninstall and reinstall thinking that was the issue but it wasn’t. I don’t know why it keeps crashing but I’m done and frustrated. Uninstalling this app.
