### 4/5 — Love it

*2026-01-21, version 9.304.1*

Great app. Love the options, user flow is good. I want to see action films pretty please

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2025-12-25*

Finding this app has made me very happy and exactly what I’ve been looking for, for years! Please don’t ever let anything stop this app from making more amazing shows and movies!

### 2/5 — Are you making movies for Hallmark’s standards, or for Tello’s LGBTQ+ audience?

*2025-11-30, version 9.304.1*

Thank you for providing a platform where we can easily access lesbian content. It really is refreshing to have one place dedicated to stories we actually want to watch, and I appreciate that you continue to produce and support LGBTQ+ films.

That said, I have to be honest about one major issue: the way lesbian characters kiss in your movies is incredibly unrealistic. In about 90% of your films, the women kiss with completely closed mouths, stiff body language, and zero real intimacy. It looks false, it feels forced, and it absolutely does not reflect how actual lesbian couples interact.

Real lesbians aren’t afraid of touch, connection, or passion. But the kisses in these movies feel like they’re made for Hallmark’s straight audience, not for the LGBTQ+ community you claim to represent. It’s disappointing, and honestly a little sad, because it reduces lesbian intimacy to something timid, sanitized, and “safe” instead of authentic.

As a long-time subscriber, I’m at the point where I don’t know if I can keep watching this content. It’s so vanilla that I’m not even sure vanilla is the right word—there’s something even more flavourless than what we’re getting.

Please give us real, genuine, believable intimacy. We deserve better than closed-mouth Hallmark kisses.

### 5/5 — Great content!!!

*2025-10-20, version 9.200.2*

Great channel/app. The content is great and nothing is like Tello Films ❤️❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — Great Channel

*2025-09-21*

Good movies for us and about us!

### 5/5 — Love Tello films

*2025-06-04*

I really like the wide range of films available on Tello both culturally/ language-wise, and age groups the content caters to. There are films for young lesbians coming out to themes that appeal to older viewers, frivolous films to serious subjects, films made by beginners to professionals so something for everyone. I appreciate the fact that beginner film makers have a chance to show their work and improve. It means more content for us in the end! The quality of the content is good overall. Keep up the good work!

### 2/5 — Buy or rent

*2023-12-08*

There are movies in the app which I cannot access due to having to ‘buy or rent’. 
Why should I have to use this option when I am already paying for the subscription! 
If paying a full subscription all the content should be included!

### 5/5 — LOVE LOVE LOVE

Un chasco. No está subtitulada en español

### 1/5 — No Captions/Subtiles

*2024-09-03, version 8.500.1*

I’m Deaf and many of the videos are not accessible for me since I’m DEAF!!! And I paid for it think??. What happened to accessible since I paid for it?

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2024-03-20, version 8.500.1*

Awful picture quality, very limited content!

### 1/5 — Tello Review

*2022-05-13, version 7.303.1*

Very little content. Mostly previews of things. Did not enjoy.

### 1/5 — Acabo de suscribirme

*2022-01-08, version 6.030.1*

No sé qué valoración darles 😠Compre la suscripción de un mes (7.49 €) por que quiero ver la película Christmas at the ranch y resulta que no la tenéis en el plan mensual. Cabreo monumental Les doy una estrella de valoración por no tengo otra opción 🤬🤬

### 1/5 — Bad set & assistance

*2020-09-19, version 5.801.1*

Can’t load CC to purchase & keeps saying subscription needs renewing! Getting frustrated to watch a show! Should not be this hard!

### 1/5 — Robbed

*2020-08-02, version 5.801.1*

I paid for a subscription and could not even access the app. I contacted support and did not receive a response back in regards. I would like my money back as they have not delivered on anything but immediately charging my card. I am reporting this to the better business bureau.

### 1/5 — Tell- No-One

*2020-06-29*

First of all I’m not sure where to start. The lack of diversity in the movies options and series alone or the fact that these were all I don’t know from the mid to early 90s.
Don’t get me wrong finally got to watch season of love for an extra $8, wasn’t awful.
I certainly won’t suggested this streaming app, I was so disappointed in the options. Big of Guinevere Turner, but I know y’all find more black movies beside the “watermelon woman” I mean seriously. Can I get a refund. Seriously.
Major let down “bigly” Tello, Tell No
I thought with Tello being kind of primarily focus on women i didn’t think it would be just white women.  Idk Tello please diversified viewing options. If I just wanted to watch movies about White women I got basic cable for that. Ughhh

I love the content of the app but please we need more ☺️

### 5/5 — Great LGBTQ channel

*2026-07-07*

They are getting more content in more often than before. I love the variety. Any channel/network that has a film/short by Alexandra Swarens is guaranteed to be worth watching. I love her stuff, she is wickedly talented!!! And the creator of Tello…Aces!

### 5/5 — Thank you!🌈

### 5/5 — The holiday club

*2026-01-01*

Just discovered Tello and Alexandra Swarens.   It is so great to watch Christmas movies that reflect my likes and life instead of the same ole Lifetime Christmas movies.  Great variety and loving everything I’ve watched here so far!  Keep it up 🙌🏻
