They will not allow you to cancel your subscription. They send you on a wild goose chase to try to cancel the subscription. None of the instructions to cancel work and they are all different. They do not respond in a timely manner. I am currently seeking legal counsel due to their refusal to cancel the subscription after several requests! And ohhhh it wouldn’t let me submit my review without giving it 5 stars! It kept suggesting the nickname was “taken”!

Senior citizen needs help
Gistofit
They are charging my bank account over and over. They charged me 3 times in a month! Once for .50 cents and 2 monthly charges. I canceled the stupid subscription the same day I got it. I Should have been under a trail subscription even. They are scammers and are not responding to my emails. They are continuing to charge me monthly and will not refund my money! I am on a fixed income and this is ridiculous. I did everything they said to quote-unquote cancel my NON-existent subscription to no avail! Do not use this app! They will steal your money! If the developer see this please know I have nothing but time unlike other people so I will continue to post everywhere I can that you are stealing money from people until you refund my bank account and stop withdrawing my money!

Highly variable from really great to so so
Bryonne42
They have occasional movies that are among the very best but lots of their movies are very short novelty pieces of medium quality or things with acting or cinematography not that great. They do not have tons of material but they are worth a brief experience for the fraction of their stuff that is really good. Be careful since other reviewers have warned of difficulties getting out of your subscription, but if you can subscribe briefly to see the good stuff then get out again, there is a bit of quality to be had if you are willing to wade through lots of so so stuff.

Terrible scam like service
Theft app dont download
This service is very much a scam paid 50 cents for a trial and attempted to cancel subscription due to underwhelming experience with app. Upon trying to cancel subscription to avoid further charge The app does not show up in subscriptions on the store or on my device subscriptions it has no number to call for customer service to cancel all is in attempt to charge you subscription fees over and over to steal money. Scamming people trying to support your business is horrible this should be arrestable offense. How many people have been robbed before me discovering this service is a scam
