VidAngel 4+

I hate to give anything but a five star review here. So much about this company deserves five stars - the very idea, the selection of movies, the social media posts, etc. Please, please keep improving. You’re doing awesome!

However, the app itself has alot frustrations. I understand it might also be because the streaming platforms don’t make it easy on them. But the app doesn’t remember where you are in as you watch the movie. As soon as the device screen goes dark, you have to reopen app, find the movie again, reconnect to chromecast, wait for it to connect, all to just pause the movie if your kids walk in and ask a question. If the electricity goes, or it disconnects for whatever reason, it doesn’t remember where you are and you have to do all previous and then figure that out. If you need close captions, which we use on all other apps because ADHD, they are SO DELAYED to the actual audio, like 2-3 minutes by half way through the movie, it’s just pointless.

So, I’ll never cancel if I can help it. I want to support the project. But please keep working on app support. Such a great idea and so very frustrating to use. Keep working. You can do it!

Thanks for leaving the review. It's good to hear you like using VidAngel with your family. Please reach out to us at support@VidAngel.com and let us know more of what's happening. We'd love to get this working for you again.

We like everything about this app so far. However, there are at least two things that need to change.

1) the age rating. VidAngel is categorized as 4+, but it needs to be higher. Our apps on the AppleTV are locked down because of our small children, except for kids apps AND this one now. This is NOT a four year old app. Please change the age rating to what it should be verses something a four year old can access.

2) being able to change filters in the app. My preference would be to change filters on my account online rather than directly in the app. If parents are wanting to block content from kids, they’d still be able to change filters in the app before they start watching the show or movie.

Thanks for leaving your review. We're glad you can see a value in VidAngel. 1)Please write to us at support@VidAngel.com so we can track your request about changing the age in the app store. We've only ever had 1 other request for this.
2) You can put a parental pin on the filters so they can not be changed without that pin. It is only available to set on our website. If you are unable to find that, please write to us as well and we can help you with that.

I cannot believe there are so few reviews on here. I have been using Vidangel for the past few years. There are some hiccups now and then with the app losing verification with streaming services but nothing that is too inconvenient. It’s our families go-to for watching most streaming content. The app does not have licensing for HBO or Disney products but I don’t miss those shows anyway. There’s plenty of good content available to choose from and they are frequently uploading new content to view. The process is easy to set up, you can set broad filters to remove all of a specific content you want filtered and also manage individual filters as well if you want to allow certain filters for a specific movie. So easy and so seamless, you can hardly tell when something was removed. Anyway, just wanted to give a recent review since there doesn’t seem to be any on here. I recommend Vidangel to all my family and friends. It’s worth it.

Thank you so much for your review! We appreciate the kind words and support! If you need anything, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at support@VidAngel.com.
