Would be five stars with two changes

This is a very useful app for language learning! It's good that once you download subtitles the app can be used offline. So far I've been impressed with the number of subtitles available in English and French.

It could use a couple of things to be a 5 star app: 1-It would be appreciated if the time slider was easier to use (e.g. add a way to input a precise number), and 2-it would be wonderful if you could have two windows with two different languages. Please consider to make app 5 stars. Thanks.

Very accurate

I can’t go wrong with it. It’s phenomenal!!!

Good but needs improvements

An excellent subtitle player but it lacks the ability to allow changing the text color other than for white and red.
The bubble “Start here” should have a button to turn it off Amanda Shaheen it is needed only on first post instant launch. Otherwise it is bothersome.

Error messages with search - Fixed by DEV!

You fixed it! Thank you!
Excellent app.

Response from developer

Hi Steeeev (hopefully I got the number of e's right!) Apologies, there was an error with search at the start of April, due to opensubtitles experiencing unprecedented demand with coronavirus, problems should be resolved now. If you have any more problems, feel free to get in touch at support@interactivecoconut.com.

Not working anymore

(download problem) is showing every time I try to show subtitles in Arabic, the app is not working with new movies and series anymore

Response from developer

Hi Mukhtar, sorry for the problems you encountered, and thanks for letting me know. I have updated the app (3.0.8) which should resolve this problem with Arabic for you. Please let me know at support@interactivecoconut.com if you have any more problems with the app.

Great!

Very useful when watching movies with inaudible lines or actors mumble too much.

Fantastic

As other sources for CC and subtitles seem to be getting worse, or failing altogether, Subtitles Viewer Pro works almost flawlessly for me.

Subs

Wonderful app, has changed my life
A couple of suggestions if possible considering I know nothing of the mechanics behind CC.
It would be nice if the size of the text could be changed.
And if text could be be displayed by each character, as opposed to a running conversation.
Thank you for taking the time to create this application.

Hi User82648, that's nice to hear, and thanks for your comments and suggestions! So the size of the text can actually be changed, look for the plus and minus buttons in the player.  Nice suggestion about the text displaying the character speaking. I agree that this would be nice, unfortunately the subtitles that the app accesses don't usually have this information. Bit of a shame, sorry about that. I'll keep a look out for alternative sources of subtitles with this info. Feel free to get in touch at info@interactivecoconut.com if you need anything else.

Awesome! Works!

I tried other pc methods but no luck because CC went too fast! This App is spot on with CC speed! Works very well for me. I have a need for CC in German for my movies and shows. Too bad Alarm für Cobra not found in German. Warning though, updating app does delete library. However the update allowed me to find a movie that previously was not findable. Thank you! My friend is deaf and needs this too.

Thanks Tpkyt, that's great to hear it's working well for you! Regarding the library deleting - sorry about that - that's a strange one, it shouldn't (unless you deleted the app first?)  Feel free to get in touch at info@interactivecoconut.com if you need any support with the app and I'll be happy to help.

Keep crushing

When searching for movie and got the subtle crunch if push the play button.

Response from developer

Hi اسامة٢٠١١. Sorry for the problems you’re encountering with the app. I’d love to try to resolve this for you, feel free to get in touch at support@interactivecoconut.com.

Not working anymore

When you do search, it only takes about 10 seconds for an error downloading sign appears, it used to work great.

I’m not in Australia and I got the “pro” version by the way.
I tried the free version as well with still 3 credits and I have the exactly same download error issue.
Please help.

Response from developer

Hi Loo425, apologies for your problems with the app. If you're still having trouble, please feel free to get in touch on support@interactivecoconut.com and I'll be happy to help.

Failure to upload subtitle to dropbox

I could not have uploaded subtitles to dropbox and saved them far. This app can not do this job.they cannot be transferred to dropbox. Instead it would be nice if this app could save subtitles as a text file in apps like word, page or note on ios devices. And we could copy subtitles and paste them in another text apps.

Unnecessary hint

The hint “start here” appears every time the app is opened. Either remove it or let it appear once after first run after installing or put a switch in settings to turn it off. Anyway, it is not needed at all.

App keeps closing

What’s happening with this app? When I insert a title and click ‘search’, the app just closes. I have paid for the Pro version of this - not impressed!

Response from developer

Hi bicarota, new federal restrictions in Australia are interfering with searching and download subtitles within the app. (uploads are still working, however) I only recently found about this, and am currently working on a resolution for the situation, including notifications for Australian users. I can only sincerely apologize that you made a purchase for the pro version of this app, it is quite possible that search and download will continue to not work for the foreseeable future. If you would like to get a refund, you can request this from Apple here (https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT204084) and there's usually no problem about getting your purchases refunded. I do apologize again, for the inconvenience, and above all, because the resolution that you probably really would prefer is an app that works! For more information on the issue with subtitles in Australia, you can find this here: http://subtitlesviewer.com/subtitlesAustralia.html

Application utile et intéressante.

Après avoir reçu un commentaire du développeur, j'ai réussi à utiliser cette application qui est vraiment très pratique.
Films et séries récents sont disponibles.

Response from developer

Bonjour p3XitrOn, les langues sélectionnées déterminent les langues que vous souhaitez rechercher. J'espère que ça aide. Si vous avez besoin de plus d'aide, n'hésitez pas à contacter le support technique. (Traduit de: Hi p3XitrOn, the languages selected determines what languages you are interested in searching for. Hopefully that helps. If you need more help, feel free to contact support.)

Great idea but....

This app is a great idea but it not supposed to look at the movie/tv show using the camera of the iPad/iPhone? How can I see the image of the camera is turned off? How can I enable it?

Regards, @jrgn

Response from developer

Hi JRGN, I'm not completely sure what you were expecting, but no, the intention is not to watch the movie/tv show using the camera of the iPad/iPhone. Instead, this app displays subtitles while you watch the movie at the cinema (or tv show on your TV). Hopefully that clears up the misunderstanding. Feel free to get in touch with support if you need more help with the app.

I'm disappointed by current movie options

Twice in the last 2 months, I went to see movies at the theaters and the subtitles through this app was either not available or incomplete 2 weeks after its initial release. "London Is Falling" didn't play, and the one about Batman vs. Superman was missing a huge chunk of dialogue while playing.

Now, I'm waiting for "Alice Through the Looking Glass" to show up for download on the app before I go to see it. When will that happen?

So disappointed because I live in a small town with a theater that only has audio amplifiers but no caption reader devices for people like me, and the nearest theater that does have those is 75 miles away.

Works

It's working very good, so happy

Feature request

Is it possible to split the screen? One part moves in sync with the movie, while you can browse on the second part what was before and after this very moment.

Pause also will be great. Pause the movie, review last dialogue, then continue from the place you stopped.

Fantastic when it worked

This app is phenomenal, my girlfriend's first language is Russian and she says the subtitles are spot on. That being said, it crashes any time I press play. It worked until an update, either the app or iOS update. Useless until fixed.
