Though it does crash, and the search sometimes doesn’t work because it won’t update as you type. (Typing slower sometimes helps) It’d be nice if you could make lists of specific movies too, rather than just use their filters. ### 3/5 — Unreliable *2024-07-25, version 3.6.80* My husband and I used to love this app but over the last few months, it’s wrong almost every time I look up a show or movie. ### 4/5 — Consistently useful *2024-01-15, version 3.6.78* I’ve been a satisfied user for years. I’ll happily pay for the premium subscription when it’s priced right. ### 1/5 — This app is trash and won’t let me watch anything I’m giving you one star. How do you like that huh *2023-05-23, version 3.6.52* 😡 ### 1/5 — Doesn't work anymore *2023-05-20, version 3.6.52* This app used to work really good providing information on where to find movies and TV shows on the various streaming platforms. Now it doesn't work anymore. Very disappointing! ### 1/5 — Used to be able to find movies elsewhere *2022-12-05, version 3.6.52* When Yidio first was released, I used it to find movies on the different cable and online channels. Now, it seems to be a shill for YouTube’s pay movie channel. Even in unhiding the other apps doesn’t do anything. A useless app. ### 1/5 — Not the best *2022-11-14, version 3.6.46* Not the best I wanted to watch a show and I couldn't even watch it. ### 2/5 — Streaming Services *2022-06-28, version 3.4.89* I was looking forward to this APP. The one I currently use is wrong about availability just about every time. Sadly, Yidio categorized more than half of my streaming APPs as “Not Installed”. This includes: Amazon Prime Hulu Netflix Nick Jr Syfy Starz Peacock and several more These APPs are in my iPhone. Each one of them is working. I’m on iOS 15.5 on an iPhone 13 Pro Max. There is 174GB available. I have deleted and reinstalled Netflix (for example). Still “Not Installed”. I opened a support ticket almost a week ago. The same day I started my free trial. The trial ends tomorrow. Not a peep out of Yidio. I canceled the subscription. ### 1/5 — Gunsmoke *2022-06-04, version 3.4.89* They advertise as having episodes but don’t, they refer you to sling tv at $35.00 per month.Esmeralda. ### 2/5 — Slow *2022-06-02, version 3.4.89* Love that I can keep track of what shows I'm on and what episode of each show in on. Also love that I can find what streaming device each show is on. But most of the time it's so slow and it buffers and doesn't bring what you have clicked on up at all, it will keep spinning/buffering even after a few minutes. I try to force close the app often, restart my phone sometimes even, but always the same issue. I have been using this app for over 3 years. I love its features but Hate the constant buffering and slowness of the app. They really need to fix that! Seems like it's been getting worse over the years happening more often and for longer wait times. ### 2/5 — Down the Drain… *2022-05-30, version 3.4.89* What used to be my ‘Go-to’ app for up to date info on any film or TV series anywhere on the Web, has become a useless piece of trash. It was THE app to locate and watch anything and everything I ever wanted, a Search Engine for Entertainment. … All gone. It isn’t even worth the space it uses to keep it on my devices. I was practically begging them to develop a version for Apple TV. Now it’s not even staying on my iPod. Goodby old friend. Whoever is responsible should be drawn and quartered! ### 3/5 — it's white and gross *2022-05-15, version 3.4.89* make a the dock and keyboard dark. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t save what I added to watchlist *2022-05-08, version 3.4.89* I decided to change my password. Than resigned into app after changing password through the email reset. Now my watchlist is all gone. Decided to reattach my shows but nothing shows up in my watchlist. I even deleted the app and downloaded it again. Very disappointed. ### 2/5 — Keeps hiding apps & not accurate *2022-04-15, version 3.4.89* I keep unhiding streaming sources & Yidio keeps re-hiding them! Stop it!!! Also, it’s not accurate: says Cumberbatch Sherlock is on Netflix - it hasn’t been since May 2021… so only 11 months behind. ### 1/5 — I can’t get in to the shows. No password accepted *2022-03-26, version 3.4.86* I need a live person to help me set up. I can’t move forward without a password. ### 1/5 — False advertising *2022-01-29, version 3.4.86* So when your not logged in, it shows u that they have certain shows available to watch but then when I actually signed up. Every single episode and every season of that show said it wasn’t added on yet. False advertising. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 😡😡😡😡😡 *2025-11-16, version 3.6.91* 👊👈🫷🫵🏻👎👎👎👎👎 ### 1/5 — Gone Downhill *2025-05-01, version 3.6.89* No longer reliably deep links to apps. Often very outdated or blatantly incorrect info. I used to love this app. Yesterday I was looking for Hellboy. NO LISTINGS. Today they suddenly appear. Time waster. Devs please restore this app to its former usefulness, right now it’s a joke. ### 1/5 — Be Careful! *2025-02-02, version 3.6.88* Had my information stolen a few times on the dark web through Yidio. I got alerts more than twice from my Mastercard Identity Theft Monitoring Account. I have plenty of information to prove this, so be VERY careful when giving your information to Yidio. I've since deleted my account and won't be using them anymore. ### 1/5 — Not anymore *2025-01-11, version 3.6.85* Used to my go to app for finding where to watch certain movies/shows but unreliable now. Everything is on Netflix…news flash, it’s not. May get fixed but I won’t know, deleting. ### 1/5 — Inaccurate *2024-11-04, version 3.6.83* The whole point is to see what's streaming but the software cannot keep up with the timing of when it's on a certain app or the region. It's really unusable. ### 1/5 — Date breach on this app yidio BE cAReFULl!!! *2024-03-01, version 3.6.79* Be careful about the apps you download. I don’t even remember using yidio and somehow my data was breached through them! Be careful ladies and gentlemen and change your passwords ### 1/5 — Very poor customer support *2024-02-11, version 3.6.79* I have a problem with the Applications I selected disappearing every time I use the app. I contacted customer support and (mind I am a paying customer) and they were no help at all then discontinued my account. So poor quality product with bad support. Do not use. I wish I could give them a negative in stars. ### 1/5 — You must be kidding! *2024-01-30, version 3.6.78* This app is not very polished… yet they want $48 annually!! The excellent Letterboxd app is $19 per year! Not a difficult choice… ### 1/5 — Doesn't play just sends you to other apps and still doesn't work. *2023-07-05, version 3.6.52* Awful. Just sends you to other apps and still doesn't play as it says you need to down load that app (such as Amazon Prime) and then says you need to down load it even though it already is down loaded and then still Doesn't let you play the video it says it has but really doesn't. TOTALLY USELESS!' And won't let you manage the subscription from the app! So you can't delete it. DO NOT DOWN LOAD! It's a waste of $4.95. What a rip off. ### 1/5 — Breached data’s alert on my credit reports *2023-05-28, version 3.6.52* Never download this app or website that they basically breached my email, password, and username since I got notified from credit reports has feature called dark web alert. Never trust this app/website! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Pimpsauce!!!!! *2026-02-11, version 3.6.91* Once u learn how to use this app it is so awesome! Now do not get anxious when you first try to use it. It is way worse than u are making it. lol. Just google it and it will walk u thru the instructions and they are easy. Love it! Def recommending. ### 5/5 — E. D. G. A. R. *2025-03-13, version 3.6.88* R. I. O. S. ### 5/5 — Ye *2024-06-23, version 3.6.80* Yes ### 5/5 — 5star movies *2022-11-16, version 3.6.46* So far I like what I see in the information I receive from this app but once I actually get to watch a movie or show that I Save and added to my watchlist this app would become the best movie app I came across by four but until then it’s pretty much the same as any other movie app I mean I wish at least once a month or once a week I would be able to watch a new movie for free if not just any movie but a top rating most popular movie in theaters from this movie app a movie I chosen from my watchlist but overall I gave this app five stars ### 5/5 — Movie App Review *2021-09-05, version 3.4.81* Great movie app ### 5/5 — I like Yidio *2021-07-13, version 3.4.68* I like this ### 5/5 — Still unable to launch *2021-01-28, version 3.4.30* This used to be a great app that I used all the time to locate and watch the shows and movies that I want it. Recently something has happened where the app has been unable to launch ! even with a couple of app updates the app still does not launch ! what is going on ### 5/5 — So convenient! *2020-10-06, version 3.3.82* I love and recommend this app. I subscribe to many different streaming platforms and hated searching each one for a particular title. My only question to the developers is: I see you have Disney Now, but when will Disney+ be included? ### 5/5 — No tiene español Gracias *2020-07-19, version 3.3.65* Gracias ### 5/5 — Amazing but.... *2020-05-12* Is App is great. It has all the show I want to see. I love that it’s free too. But the thing is that when I put a movie to my watchlist it doesn’t go there so I have to search it up. The other thing is that how do I watch the shows I want to watch. I press on the episode that I want to watch but then I don’t know what to press because it for say anything else. So I don’t know what to do. I want to watch the shows but I don’t want to pay anything. Thank you for taking your time and reading my review. Hopefully I get a reply to see what I can do. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. If possible could you please visit https://help.yidio.com/support/tickets/new to further assist?
