Brilliant App – Highly Recommended!

This app is absolutely brilliant and delivers a highly polished experience. It integrates perfectly with my Kodi and Debrid setup, making my 4K media management completely seamless. The interface is intuitive, clean, and at the same time customisable. App is incredibly stable I absolutely love using it on my iphone and android tv. Very well done to the developer!

Sleeper app of the century.

If you know, you know. Wako is one of the best-kept secrets on iOS. It is fast, easy to use, and keeps getting better with every update. The developers clearly listen to their users. Absolutely deserving of five stars!

Response from developer

Thank you — “sleeper app” is a compliment we'll take. It's built by one developer, so a review like this carries real weight.

New Wako UI

The new wako UI is amazing !!!

No external video player option

When I played a movie it keeps stopping , and I have great internet so that’s not a issue , I wish there was an option to use an external video player because I’ve looked all over the app and no option, I’ll change my rating once it’s done

Response from developer

The option does exist — you assign an external player to a tap or long press in Settings › Source Interaction: wako.app/faq#external-player. Sorry it wasn't easy to find; that's on us. If playback still stops after that, wako.app/support is the place to get it looked at.

The new UI is 10/10

After the app changed design it's actually pretty awesome now.

Bugs

Subscription doesnt say its paid for(i have it) when it did work videos didnt play. Im getting tired boss

Ruined by update

Until the latest update this was a great app. Now I find it unusable it is difficult to setup but the biggest problem there are no instructions or directions on how to setup and use.

Response from developer

The setup is written up end to end at wako.app/faq — what wako is, what it needs from you, and how to get playback working. wako is a tracker and a media center: it organizes what you watch and plays the files and services you connect to it. If something there doesn't match what you're seeing, wako.app/support will get you a hand.

New update shocking

This was my go to app and happy to pay£2 a month but the new update is dreadful.

horrid

this app is so stupid i was trying to watch a show and i click on it and it gives me an over view and it doesn’t even tell you how to open its to good or be true don’t download this app

Decent app, price increase ridiculous.

Been using this app for quite some time, I enjoy using it. It’s not mandatory as there are PLENTY of other FREE options. But I like wako, so I’m happy to pay the £1.29 per month subscription.

The price just increased by 55%, now £1.99. I understand a price hike but 55% is absolutley mind blowing. Talk about a cash grab.

Great app, wonderful support

This app is not only great at what it does, but great where it does it: iOS, iPadOS, FireOS, Android TV, Android mobile, etc. plus if there’s an issue the developer can be reached directly on Reddit or Discord and replies nearly instantly. If you want to use a program like this one, use this one. It’s simple and highly effective.

I’ve been a premium membership for over 2 years , and yesterday I was trying to use the app and when I wanted to play want of my own add ons it keep saying I need to be premium to use this option , but I’m premium so idk what’s going on with the app , I hope I get a response soon from the developer, also I have to update my review , why the increased in price ? Are we getting something new , otherwise I will be cancelling my membership

Worth every penny.

Possibly one of the best apps I've ever used. 11 out of 10.

Perm paid option?

Was looking for a perm paid option just in case the servers are ever down, as i use this daily, to verify ownership of paid features so it doesnt *NEED* an internet connection to verify it’s paid for

Amazing application

I have been using Wako for years. App works amazing for organizing my movies/shows and connecting to my debrid services. Had a slight issue with the app and the developer was extremely responsive and had it fixed extremely quickly.

My review

I’m not really sure how to watch on it but the rest is quite good

Helios and everything stops working

Everything shows nor sources found for weeks, still not working

App used to let me add my own add ons

This app used to let me ad my own add ons now it doesn’t even tho I paid every month , every time I enter my add on it said it’s no valid

Disappointed.

Had lifetime. Dev removed it. Not paying $1.99/month for this.

Two Things Are Preventing 5 Stars

Good app the only things preventing it from being 5 stars. There’s no Lifetime sub for a front end app. Also there’s no Apple TV support as well which is a little ridiculous considering the dev wants to charge monthly. I like the app but the removal of the lifetime pricing cuz there’s no competition makes it a bit scummy.

Other than that though the app is good for what it is.
