Classix Reviews

I recently downloaded the this app App on my iPhone, and for some reason there are no controls once a movie starts. There appears to be no interface to pause the movie or skip to a certain time. While its playing, I can only watch the movie from start to finish. If I want to stop the movie, I have to close out of Classix entirely. I've tried updating my phone and Classix to no avail.

I also tried to submit a ticket on the help website about this, but each time I try I get a message saying that I'm restricted from accessing that page. I don't know how else to contact this app about this issue other than from here. Hopefully they see this.

I love the idea of Classix! Classic TV shows and movies are about the only thing I care about watching. But Classix just doesn’t work right. I use Chromecast to watch shows on my TV and while Classix says you can cast, half the time it doesn’t work. It will start casting a show that I haven’t chosen, and won’t stop. Then I have to close Classix and reopen it to try to get it to cast what I want to watch. I’m not impressed. It needs some work although the idea is good. In addition, several of the shows I’ve tried to watch are very poor quality. In fact the sound was so bad you couldn’t even understand them. I paid the $2.99, which I would do again, if it worked. But right now I feel like I’ve been ripped off.

The idea for Classix is fantastic, but the execution is horrendous. Titles are presented in the worst quality with cropped video or pan-and-scan images. It is nearly impossible to decipher what is being shown on your screen.

I hope in the future they improve Classix by adding better quality videos. Many people would be willing to pay more money for a collection like this in viewable quality.

Updated to version 3.10 just now, September 2022. It loads and immediately quits. It's not even a force quit; it exits on its own. Deleting and redownloading from Classix store doesn't fix it. Rebooting iphone doesn't fix either.

I reported this problem here with version 3.6 in January. The following month February had two new versions 3.7 and 3.8, but neither of them fixed the problem. Now 6 months later, the new version still won't run.

Totally useless app and useless company to not fix it. Look at all the other reviews with the same problem. Movie listing apps should pull their this app listings. I think they're purposely releasing an app that doesn't work just to get people to subscribe to AppleTV+ because this app is available there. Likely an agreement with Apple; you can blame them too. I'm not biting that rotten apple.

Had watched a couple things on the free app, knew quality wasn’t great but figured it wouldn’t hurt to throw developer a few bucks to watch Frankenstein. Picture is zoomed in and cropped and not full movie is featured, beginning and ending are cut off. See other big movies like Freaks are presented the same way.

Shocked Apple would not only allow developer to charge for this but feature Classix in the TV app. Free app is good for a few obscurities but once you pay it’s complete garbage. Don’t waste your $4.

I paid for the upgrade on Classix, and even though, it wasn’t that much. I should be able to use it until I no longer won’t to. I’ve tried everything, even re- downloading it, but it still will not work. I tried to send an email to the developer under, app support. I was told that I didn’t have access to the email, and it fail to send. I have loved Classix, and I want to continue to use it. Will someone please contact and help me.

Same movies roku apps have and I believe apple tv 3rd gen is the only way to download Classix, so ipad and phone(why bother)is the only way to watch these mostly crappy movies.
Haven’t even figured how to watch it on MacBook but can thru roku, so once you make the sensible move and buy one, the world opens up as they have an apple app that you can watch you’re downloaded movies and tv shows on, hardly use my 1st gen apple tv anymore...

There are some real gems to be found here. Totally worth paying the premium upgrade. However, Classix needs a lot of work, both on iPhone and AppleTV. Search barely works at all. Some movies are displayed in the menu but are not playable. Worst of all, the continue watching feature rarely works, so if you exit mid movie, you have to try and find where you left off. Seriously annoying.

Everything is in 360p. When it came up as a purchase for $4 to watch something, I was completely unaware that the quality was so bad. I had assumed that it was a $4 a month subscription, so I was extremely disappointed until I realized that it was a lifetime deal. I would be completely willing to pay $4 a month for better quality, even if it was only 720p. As is, it is atrocious to watch this on any screen older than an iPhone 3gs

Does Classix have a ton of movies to watch? Sure it does. Does it only show 49 minutes of a movie that’s 1hr 10min long? It sure does too. Watched Frankenstein and the end is cut off. Framing was awful, faces cut off by the top of the screen, etc. I get that these movies aren’t in HD but still show the whole movie. I can get over the horrible quality of the movies if you show the entire film.

Because of the library. It’s a good library. But there are problems:

1. No closed captions. I have a father who wears hearing aids, but often has difficulty understanding dialogue. My mother also has some difficulty. Captions have helped out enormously over the years. But there is no option for that here. That’s a big downside, because they’re cutting out a large portion of people who benefit from captions. Please fix this.
2. Casting issues. When I select a movie to cast, the selected movie doesn’t cast. Rather, a different one casts. And, when I turn on my device and select the casting icon, it interrupts the movie and starts it over from the beginning…even while the movie is playing. Did any of that make sense? No? Well, this problem doesn’t make sense either, and gives Classix the feeling that it’s temperamental.

Fix these issues, and you’ll have a lot of people swarming to Classix in the future.

I appreciate that I can watch good movies for free, but Classix seems to have trouble with two things. 1) when I try to resume a movie, it usually doesn’t put me back into the place I left off, and 2) when I try to skip to the spot I really did leave off at, most of the times the movie won’t load. The PC site works perfectly fine, but the iPhone app has these glitches.

i really enjoyed the free version and decided to upgrade to the premium version. Now Classix will not open at all on my iPad Pro. I"ve deleted Classix and reloaded it 3 times from Classix store. still no success in getting it to open. It simply tries to open and uses the whole screen for 1 or 2 seconds then shuts down immediately????......Any help to get Classix running would be appreciated!

I've just discovered Classix and overall, I like it quite well. My only issue is that it needs work on accessibility with voiceover. Please remember that visually impaired people enjoy this app as well. Visual aspects could be improved with verbal descriptions. audio description could be added to movies and TV shows.

I love Classix. I use it on my iPhone, iPad, and my fireTV. I love that if I put on one movie and finish it, it’ll roll over to the next one in that section. I’ve watched tons of movies I might not have originally chosen that way and loved them. The only thing it needs is subtitles. I watch at work sometimes, and I need the volume to be quiet so it doesn’t distract people around me. Subtitles would be super helpful for this.

I like Classix but it will not open on my Apple TV. Works fine on my iPhone but it would be great if it works on my tv. Any suggestions besides the normal, delete and reload. Paid for premium and it would be nice to have it on all my Apple devices.

All of a sudden, Classix is not loading. I’ve tried deleting it and reloading Classix numerous times with no success. I’ve searched for where I can get assistance, however, I cannot find anything. Does anyone know how to contact someone at Classix?

I was searching through my Apple TV 's TV App for a vintage Japanese "Rubber Suit" Kaiju flick that I was hoping it might find on Prime, Netflix, or Tubi TV app. It found it, on ITunes, and an unknown app this app.
this app is a free app, with an in app purchase option for An additional set of Premium videos. So far, I've found all the movies I'm interested in are available in the free section, so I haven't made the in app purchase, but it's just a few $'s so I will probably buy the add on if I see a video in that section.

They have all types of classic videos, but Sci-Fi is my thing, B & W Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers and hundreds of B movie greats.

Give it a try, and let others know what you thought. For me, it's a solid 5 stars.

I’m a fan of old TV shows and movies, and Classix is great! I can be a bit frugal when spending money on apps, but when I saw the long list of programs this app has to offer, I immediately purchased the full version. I had a minor question about creating and finding a list of saved shows and movies, and someone got back to me very promptly, was very friendly and very helpful. A+ all around.

I paid for Classix when it was only 1.99!!! Why should I have to pay again for something I already have? Then there are movies with a lock on it. Why is that? This is not cool!! I gave a five star because I love old movies and Classix has what I like!!! You guys are wrong for that. Now I can’t get it to play through Classix on my iPhone mini pro 13 !

I paid to access the entire content and have beeen overwhelmed with the content. So many choices! I love it. Especially the classic cartoons.

An Autoplay feature for the cartoons and television shows would really improve the experience. I connect my phone with HDMI to the tv so I can see the shows on there. The cartoons are often 7 mins in length so getting up to play the next episode manually is a throwback to the days before we had tv remotes. It gets quite annoying.

An autoplay feature would in essence make Classix flawless.

As a longtime user of Classix (literally, since the beginning), I’d have to say this most recent update—with its revamped UI and many bug fixes—is one for the books! It took me about a minute (on my tv) re-train my muscle memory on the new UX, but once I learned the layout, it was smooth sailing once again. I also love how these classic gems are randomly posted front and center so you can always find something new.

And, I never thought I see the day… this app on Watch! Funny enough, the day the update came out, I was somewhere that I had to wait longer than expected, and my phone battery was low. I usually play games or use the WatchTube app… but, that day, I was able to stream some 30’s “this app” right from my watch. I gushed with glee! LOL 😁

The this app never die!
