Ratings and Reviews
Nothing else like it
I've been a user of Play for ~10 months, and I cannot recommend it enough. It's on all of the platforms it could be on, (except Google TV) and it works good for storing literally any type of video (i.e. music, apple events, programming tutorials, tech, etc.)
I would pay $3 again for a Google TV version of this app. It's just that good.
Subscription…
This single word describes an entire corporate ideology revolved around making more money by any means. Inflation and expenses (as explained by another company) do not justify any subscription model by ANY business administration. I am shocked and appalled given the quality of this app. Hopefully it gets reversed.
Developer Response ,
Updating and maintaining an app is a significant investment of both time and money. So the notion that subscriptions are solely profit-driven is wrong. Subscriptions are crucial for funding the ongoing development and enhancement of the app.
Terrific.
If you’re like me, you use several services such as Netflix, Apple TV, Youtube etc. Have you ever thought to yourself “I want to watch (insert movie etc here) but couldn’t remember what service it is on? Well this app is for you. I only have one thing that disappoints me and I’m sure that it’s not the developers fault or oversight. The fact that it doesn’t accept metadata from Prime video or Crave (Canada)is unfortunate and I can’t figure out how to add Prime or Crave. shows manually. Other than this; it is an awesome app that’s made it to the home screen on my Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple TV.
