The app does not have multiple user profiles option
absrocks007
The app is good, my only complaint about this app is that unlike other streaming apps it doesn’t have multiple user profile options. Using multiple user option would enable multiple people to watch their movies without any inconvenience

Unusable Abroad, Dwindling Quality - A Waste of Money
Subharghya Das
I paid $60/year for Hoichoi while living in the U.S., but when I traveled to India, the app locked me out - support literally told me the “best” option was to pay for a second subscription. That’s not just poor customer service, it’s outright exploitative. Platforms like Netflix or Prime let you keep your account and access content globally; Hoichoi’s approach feels predatory in comparison. And even if you do get access, the content library is rapidly declining. If you’re looking for Bengali films with solid storytelling and IMDb ratings above 7, especially anything made in the last 20 years, you’ll be lucky to find even a handful. Extremely disappointing for a platform that claims to be the face of Bengali entertainment.

Couldn’t even copy properly
smersyside
This streaming service is an example of shameless copy of any other streaming service. You pay significant price similar to other services but the experience is nowhere near. It has devices limit for no reason, the streaming quality is poor and keeps getting stuck. Keeps logging you out every other day and endless bugs.I know being somewhat monopolistic platforms as a regional streaming service, Hoichoi team wouldn’t care about this review, so I am wasting my time. But if they read this review by mistake, my suggestion would be to spend some money on the technology and hire better quality engineers.
Developer Response
Hi! We’re really sorry to hear about your experience. This is certainly not the kind of experience we aim to provide. We are continuously working to improve our platform and address such issues. If you could share more details at appsupport@hoichoi.tv, we’d be happy to investigate and assist you further.
Cannot cancel subscription
ch_p2
You cannot cancel subscription easily. When you click “cancel subscription” button, it tells you to contact support team. There is no “chat” or “call” option to talk to a live agent to cancel it. Apparently you have to submit a ticket to cancel the subscription and they will get back to you in 12 hours once you submit the ticket. I submitted it, did not receive any confirmation email of submitting the ticket, no idea if it even went through, haven’t received any call back yet. Why would canceling a subscription be this difficult?!! It feels like a scam.
Developer Response
Hi, We apologize for the inconvenience you're facing with the cancellation process. At this moment, the direct cancel option is unavailable, and cancellation must be done through our support team. We understand how this can be frustrating, and we truly value your feedback.To assist you further, please share your email by writing to us at appsupport@hoichoi.tv, and we will check the status of your request and ensure it’s resolved as quickly as possible.Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Parar mudir dokaner Debu da once said,
"Jinish jodi thik thak jaygay na thake, tahole ota khuje pete somoy ar patience dutoi chole jaye."
We felt that. Because apps are also dokaner shelves. And when things are in the right place, life just flows better.
So in this update, we did a little arranging, a little fixing, and a little "etake arektu bhalo kori."
Here's what's new:
Subscriptions first, goodbyes later
You can't delete your account mid-subscription anymore. Partly for billing reasons, mostly so you don't do something you'll regret at 2 AM.
Crashes? What crashes?
We fixed some crashes you didn't know existed. They were happening in very specific, very annoying scenarios. They're gone. You're welcome.
Season-wise descriptions
Each season now has its own description instead of copy-pasting the first one. Took longer than we'd like to admit.
Restore purchase actually works now
Remember when you'd buy something and then the app would forget? We remember. We fixed it. Digital goldfish memory = cured.
Performance improvements
Translation: we cleaned up the code, optimized some things, and now the app doesn't think as much before doing stuff. Less lag, more binge.
So go ahead. Binge without friction.
Debu da khushi. Amrao.
hoichoi: Still Boldly Bangali. Just a little more sorted.
