iQIYI Video – Dramas & Movies 12+

Suggest better feature

Another update: I am a VIP subscriber, your front page is freezing up, it does not allow us to scroll / browse. This happened after I updated the app.

Also, why are advertisements still popping up? I thought VIP subscribers are supposed to enjoy ad free shows.
Please fix both issues, thanks

Updated review: you guys are great listeners, I commented below on your caption / subtitles which were so difficult to read. I noticed you just changed to bolder fonts. Now it’s perfect. Thank you! Love iQIYI. More romance dramas please !👍

Previous message:
I just subscribed and starting to watch tv series. I am glad you are now an official screening company for hard to find channels that showcase dramas.

Glad that you have English subtitles really fast. But one recommendation if you can consider: please change your font format. Example of your competitor: Viki’s subtitles have white fonts with black background, makes it easier to read. Whereas yours has white fonts with no background. These fonts tend to disappear especially when the screen is showing a lighter color of props or clothing materials.

Please improve on this. Otherwise, I really enjoy using iQIYI. Keep up the good work.

App doesn’t work properly (site is good though)

I watch a lot of c-dramas and this would be my go-to app if it actually worked. The app doesn’t let you scroll, or navigate through tabs and recently it has even stopped allowing searching. Every time I open the app there is already a title in the search box (i didn’t type it in) and when you try to clear that and type the title you actually want it won’t let you. I mean its frozen. The work around I have found is to go to the iq site search what I want and then have that show redirect to the app.
Another issue would be as a VIP user I still sometime have ads pop in and I have to force shut the app and launch it again, log out and log back in to get the ad free service I paid for. I honestly love most of the content on iq but the app is really not user friendly at all and only ends up making me frustrated.

Developer Response ,

Your advice is well-received. We will keep working hard to provide better contents and service. Please stay tuned and give a 5-star review if you'd like to support us. Thank you!

With VIP you still get ads

I would have given this app a 4.5 a month ago, now it’s only 1. Why? I pay for VIP membership (now it’s used to pay). The shows were good, captions well done, and until a couple weeks ago, there were no ads in my no-ad-promised viewing. Then, they changed things.

Now they display advertisements on the home page, logos in the top left corner of the screen the ENTIRE time you’re viewing, and on the loading page. If they had raised rates, I would have been willing to pay more per month to not have ads in my face the ENTIRE time I’m using their app.

Now, iQIYI has lost a customer. They can’t pay me enough to stay for the current situation. Before you ask, I did contact customer service and asked about the ads, providing screenshots of them. The response was that I pay not to have commercials in the middle of viewing shows. That’s not what the promise was; they state no ads on their VIP membership benefits list.
