Good media, frustrating app
Great selection of movies that are difficult if not impossible to find elsewhere in Australia.
Sadly, EVERY MOVIE IS WATERMARKED; I get it for a free service but for a paid service, it’s ridiculous, and really distracts from the movies.
The app is also quite laggy and slow on AppleTV, and some of the controls are not intuitive, but honestly I’ll accept any bugs with the app if we just lose the watermarks!!

Junk app
I am trying to watch a movie in a legal way and I subscribed by signing with my email. The app is giving incorrect email and password while I am trying to login with Gmail, the guy with IPtv might have finished half the movie by now. Greedy people.
Worst OTT experience!
Doesn’t let you login from anywhere
Pay More, Get Less: A Streaming Service That Barely Works
If you’re thinking about subscribing to Simply South, don’t. This service is a mess.
First, they quietly auto-renew your subscription and then hide behind “T&Cs” when you ask for a refund. No reminders, no transparency—just charge first, explain later.
Second, their app isn’t even consistently available across platforms anymore. It’s no longer supported on Samsung Smart TVs, which makes the whole service borderline useless if that’s your primary viewing device. What exactly are you paying for at that point?
Third, the streaming quality is terrible. Constant buffering, random drops in resolution, and frequent interruptions make even basic viewing frustrating. This isn’t a one-off issue—it’s consistent enough to ruin the experience.
Fourth, they openly admit to “technical glitches” affecting billing—and still refuse refunds. That tells you everything you need to know about how they handle customer issues: they’ll acknowledge the problem but won’t take responsibility for fixing it.
Bottom line: unreliable platform, poor device support, constant buffering, and zero accountability on billing issues.
Avoid.

Awful app. Poor content
If there’s less than 1 star, I’d give it. Everybody’s mistakenly subscribing it because it’s inexpensive but we forget that we don’t get any value from it also.
There’s hardly any movie that’s not in prime, which also cannot be downloaded as it gets stuck in 70% or something.
