DC UNIVERSE INFINITE Reviews

Huge DC fan. Been a sub since DCUNIVERSEINFINITE came out. But I have written the devs numerous times the past year and half. Telling them how I need to restart DCUNIVERSEINFINITE a few times before it will actually let u use it..they always say they know of the issue and will have it fixed shortly and stuff like that. Yet been almost 2 years now and numerous contacts with devs. 5 times have written them or gave a written comment. Also really would love to have the devs put all their content they have on DCUNIVERSEINFINITE . Does drive me batty that so many movies, series and animated stuff aren’t on here, yet have been out for years. Instead they put out some stuff for few months, take it off and put a few different old stuff on. Heck put it all on all the time like your competitor Marvel does..

Am glad they have given us a better selection to comics and made a lot of more ease of use to the consumer on finding the comics you want and have all the others of the same title easy to find. Rem. When they would put out a lot of comics. But they Weren’t complete at all, for instance a older comic may have a series of 56 in the set yet they would have only 30 on DCUNIVERSEINFINITE . So extremely happy they have gotten a lot better with the comics but still room for improvement. Still missing some issues In a series.

All and all love DC so will continue to pay my sub hoping that they will give us a lot more content to watch and read then they do know and just keep it on at all times.

There’s tons of room for improvement.
Load times can be obnoxiously long. Not always, but often enough to be problematic. Sometimes consecutive pages can take near a minute to load.
The browsing experience is good, but lags far behind the competing Marvel Unlimited app. Sorting by release date for the entire catalog would be great. It’s kind of there, but I find it’s often missing books I know are on the service. Sorting by a character and getting every book they’ve appeared in would be cool too. I know even Marvel doesn’t have this perfected on their app, and it’s a massive ask, but DCUI is even worse in this area.
Also this may be a major or minor issue for you, but it doesn’t seem to have the support or care of it’s team like Marvel does. Just reading patch notes you can see how into the service (and the comics) the development team is. They call out and respond to issues the community brings up. This team just throws out that they “fixed bugs and stability issues,” yet rarely address the bigger issues the community has been asking about for years.
Having said that DCUNIVERSEINFINITE is a must for comic book lovers, and perfect for those getting into comics. I’ve had the service since it launched and it’s the only subscription service I refuse to go without.

A few things I feel I should share. As I feel I’m the biggest fan of the DC creative world. I’ll get right to it.
First of all, it’s pretty poor of this site to encourage people to subscribe when there isn't a constant flow of content being added. Specifically the Young Justice: Outsiders animated series. This series is a cartoon and I feel that it’s wrong to give us a measly 8 or so episodes and make us wait several months for the new season. It’s a cartoon. No one is going to care once those months are up and the new season is out.
Secondly, comics are no longer downloadable for me and I know I still have data space to install on. I’m happy with the Titans TV series. It’s very realistic as it should be because DC is about what’s real, not the pretty and magical focus that Marvel has.
Furthermore, I think in-addition to the Outsiders animated series you should add a Red Hood and the Outlaws animated series. Very explicit and mature rated for adults. Recently got into the comic and it’s very good. Just a few things I discovered that would help.
Lastly, why is DCUNIVERSEINFINITE that I pay for not up to date with these Batman comics? I’m hearing about Three Jokers and from what I can see DCUNIVERSEINFINITE has even finished the City of Bane arc. That’s ridiculous. We should be receiving the content as it’s released. Because we subscribe. We shouldn’t be out of the loop like this. We’re fans.

So I just downloaded DCUNIVERSEINFINITE yesterday and I was so excited to see all the content that was available. So I downloaded a lot of episodes and movies. I went to work the next day, which Is a manufacturing company. So I have no service. But I didn’t think anything of it because I download everything. I went on my break, open DCUNIVERSEINFINITE and it doesn’t work because it needs cellular data. So what’s the point of downloading if I need cellular data to watch. The WHOLE point of downloading is so you can watch without using data. This is completely pointless and makes no sense. I have Netflix and I download movies and shows all the time. So when I watch it, it works great, because I downloaded it! I don’t understand why DCUNIVERSEINFINITE can’t do this especially when you pay for it. So eventually I turn my cellular data on and got a little service, but the playback was blurry. Even from the ones I downloaded under Wi-Fi. This is my first time using DCUNIVERSEINFINITE and I had such a bad experience. I was so excited to use it and all of his features but it’s sad that I can’t get the full experience because it requires data. I think this is a simple fix that should be addressed. I should be able to open my app and once it sees that I have no cellular data, then it should automatically go to my downloaded library. This is exactly what Netflix and other apps do and it’s very simple. Please fix this

When I first heard about the service I was wary to pay for a whole year in case I didn’t want the service after a month or so… After two weeks I have to say I am completely satisfied. Not only is there an abundance of material to look into there’s a whole community of people that just want to chat about things that you want to chat about. To me that’s the best part. If you’re going in looking to get all the latest blockbuster movies and all the latest blockbuster comics then you’ll be upset. If you’ve already started collecting all the rebirth comics and own all the DCEU movies then this is the next step! There full strings of comics I never would’ve paid for but have always wanted to read. As a 22 year old I missed out on everything before 2000.... so I just used wiki. This has been so nice to read old comics and watch old shows. Plus the new animated movies are fiiire. I just can’t even believe it hasn’t been two weeks and it can only get better. Any complaints you have you can post and a rep replies to you. 5 stars bruh

DCUNIVERSEINFINITE works pretty well, I’ve had it crash a couple times but not a huge deal. My problem is that there are shows here that don’t include the entire run time. For example, DCUNIVERSEINFINITE only has two seasons of the four Batman Animated series seasons. So, does that mean I’m expected to finish these two seasons here, and then go pay for the other seasons elsewhere? Sure, maybe you’ll make a couple more bucks that way, but you’ll lose my trust as a (for now) subscriber. No one wants to feel cheated. If you own the show, why wouldn’t you just put up the whole series so that people keep faith in your integrity? Or is that it, is there no integrity? What if the fifth season of Titans comes out, but then they suddenly decide not to put it on DCUNIVERSEINFINITE ? Am I going to have to pay for the fifth season on Blu-Ray? I know this isn’t likely but my point is, if you have people paying for your service, you should give them 100% of the shows you have listed, especially if they’re twenty years old. Sure I’ll subscribe for now, but this poor business model will certainly have me cancel after some time. I wouldn’t mind the monthly charge if I felt like I was really being taken care of. I’m sure Disney+ wouldn’t do this, but hey I guess Warner Brothers will have to learn the hard way

I wasn’t really a huge comic reader until this service came out. Ever since I’ve been going through storylines by the boatload. The plethora of movies and tv shows is a lot of fun as well. My biggest complaints are that crossover comics don’t streamlined at all. Issues will end with “story continued in (insert issue here)” but that issue isn’t linked or any where close to where you are reading the current issue. This brings me to my second issue: finding individual comic issues is insanely difficult. You can search for a storyline and get completely unrelated comics but not the ones you are looking for. For example: I searched for Robin #130 as it was listed at the end of a different issue I was reading. Rather than getting a selection of Robin comics sorted by those sharing the specifications I searched I get “Catwoman #3” or “Teen Titans Year One”. It seems like the search engine prioritizes individual parts of a search over the entire search itself.

Also- the amount of movies that are missing is kinda ridiculous. No Batman vs. Robin, no Batman Bad blood despite them both being a part of the Animated Movie Universe is kinda crazy

So last month I wasn’t able to pay off my subscription until a week after the due date. Apple charged me, the money went out of my account right into DC Universe’s and I still can’t play my shows. Every time I try to play a show, it will give me the options for the subscriptions. Knowing that I had already paid I pressed skip these options until I realized that the subscription options won’t go away. To try to entertain what was happening in front of me, I tapped on the 7.99 subscription plan (which I already had) and after I did, it told me I already have the subscription! So what gives? Why can’t I watch the content that I paid for? Why isn’t there a call line that can help loyal paying customers figure out what’s going on more directly? For months since using DCUNIVERSEINFINITE for streaming it’s shows, it’s always been a choppy app. Always slow, glitching, or lagging behind. It’s becoming quite frustrating to keep up with. I just need help so I could watch Titans, but with a lack of a call line, I might not get. Be weary when getting DCUNIVERSEINFINITE. There are definitely positives content wise, but the mechanics of DCUNIVERSEINFINITE makes you wanna throw your phone across the room sometimes lol.

TL;DR the filter function needs to be overhauled, a favorites section needs to be added, the recently read section needs to be more robust and include storylines, and there needs to be more thoughtfulness behind how many hoops the user has to jump through to interact with the content

I love everything about the quality of the content within DCUNIVERSEINFINITE , but I think there are some interface issues that are not given enough care or attention. The filter in the comics section, how it is interacted with, and the how we open comics in general is just flat out atrocious. I literally groan when it comes to searching for specific content in storylines or by eras because the filter options seem to reset every time I so much as look at anything else. No option exist for jumping back into specific storylines, so if I want to go back to reading a main series and all the tie-ins, not only can I not do that from the recently read section, but I have to go back and use the (again, atrocious) comic filter to jump back into what I was reading. An option should exist to favorite specific eras, storylines, heroes, etc. to allow readers to jump back into content.

Ok guys, that is still a work in progress, still with its current minor glitches, this service is 100% worth it and just heaven for DC fans. I very much would like to see more comics, specifically, complete graphic novels. I don’t expect DC to give away new content, but I don’t see the point of, for example, releasing only the first issue of older classics like Red Son. This is a bit frustrating, especially since I own it, and it would be so more convenient than digging my sealed old issues.

The streaming is near perfect, the Daily DC show is great, the animation selection is great and so are the DC catalog releases through the Nolan Trilogy. I’d love to see the Zack Snyder movies, uncut, and if they wanted to blow the subscriptions out of the water #releasethegoddamSnyderCut (tip of the hat to Frank Miller).

As is, this is a great service out of the box, and don’t tell DC, but I’d pay twice the price for this geek’s DC love fest. Yes, I love the DC Universe Streaming Service. Can’t wait for the original content, especially Doom Patrol. If you love DC, don’t miss this great service.

Love it, but their lack of platform support makes it worthless to me. It’s too bad but my guess in an attempt to subvert piracy they don’t allow their content to be streamed online and in a foolish move they’ve chosen to only make apps for phones, tablets and a few TVs but unless you have the top of the line tv you’re forced to watch on a phone or tablet. Now maybe it’s age but I don’t like watching on my on a smaller screen. Make an app for Mac or allow online viewing and I’ll happily pay for your service cause I love the content but without a way to watch where I can see what I’m paying for it feels like a waste of money. Sure some people pirate because they don’t want to pay and want everything for free but sometimes it’s done for reasons that could be avoided if companies could see beyond their own fear that their profit won’t be as big as they want it to be.

I’ve enjoyed DCUNIVERSEINFINITE for the most part, but there are some things holding it back from a 5-star rating.
I was really excited when I first downloaded it because the idea of unlimited movies, TV shows, and comic books sounds amazing to anyone. However, I soon found out that it doesn’t have every DC TV show or movie. I’d assume that they’re either trying to get the rights back or they’ll shuffle out with certain shows and movies. They also don’t have nearly as many comics as I’d like, but it’s understandable or else DC would lose lots of money.
My other issue is with the downloads. Sometimes my downloads straight up stop and I can’t get them started again. This is a problem because I then have to cancel the download, but it still counts towards the limited number of downloads, which is my next complaint. You’re only allowed a certain number of downloads on an episode of a TV show or movie for the year, and when the downloads don’t always work, it still counts towards that.
Everything else was great but hopefully DC fixes the above problems or changes certain rules like the download limit.

Make no mistake — so far, the major reason to purchase a subscription to DC Universe is the quirky live-action Doom Patrol TV series, which shows enormous promise. However, DCUNIVERSEINFINITE isn’t quite ready to support the rest of the content on the service, which mainly consists of a curated comics library. The reader app frequently has trouble loading pages, resulting in an annoying error page with Batman’s Butler Alfred showing up way too frequently. It also has a major error of being unable to load the next comic in a series without having to navigate back through the menu structure. My major gripe with this service, though, is that for $8 per month, I expect more content. The Titans series is subpar and not worth it. So that leaves the comics — and there appears to be far fewer comics available to read here than on ComiXology Unlimited or Marvel’s unlimited subscription service. If you’re looking for every title or every comic in the titles they have available, look elsewhere. So far I’m thinking this isn’t worth the subscription fee yet. I’m hoping they’ll step up their game.

Adding the comics to the subscription service was a fantastic idea, and the sheer amount of content makes it more than worth the price. DCUNIVERSEINFINITE , however, still has its bugs. The videos will often stutter. When you get to the end of an issue, it is very unreliable when it comes to the button that allows you to move on to the next, often just giving me a grey box where that feature usually is and I have to go back through the menu. Right now I am dealing with DCUNIVERSEINFINITE not even opening for me, just showing the loading screen for a second before kicking me out and closing. No amount of deleting and reuploading DCUNIVERSEINFINITE or turning my tablet on/off has helped. I’m on my free trial, and while the content is worth the price, I have a hard time investing money in a service that is so hard to use. I read comics on my iPad and switching to desktop would not be worth the price for me. I get that the service is still ironing out the kinks, and I respect that. But, at this point, I have a hard time spending my money.

I’ve had DCUNIVERSEINFINITE for a while and just recently DCUNIVERSEINFINITE crashed on me and gave me an error message about my subscription. I reached out to customer service with my concerns however there was no response. I ended my subscription and started a new account because I thought I might have gotten hacked. Meanwhile customer service hasn’t responded to me at all. I have a new account and now all I get is an error that the comic pages won’t load. Mind you I sent another email to customer service about that and it’s about to be a week with no answer! How is that acceptable? How is it that a corporation can ignore their clientele’s concerns yet still charge them money? I’m an advent reader and have gotten deep into some of the finest reads in DC now idk if I even want to continue. I don’t even write reviews for apps but I wanted to let anyone new know to walk out the door because they don’t care they just want your money. No one responds to your request. I’ll check back in at the end of the month with an update…it’ll probably be that nothing has changed and they got their money….again. Smh

First let me say that DCUNIVERSEINFINITE is UNBELIEVABLE! I initially got it to rewatch the Justice League series but little did I know I’d be able to read comics too. The catalog is extensive and panel reading feature is amazing; I really can’t put my phone down. I rotate from landscape to portrait depending on the panel but that’s not too much work so it’s fine. My only issue is the video playback on mobile. While on desktop I have the ability to skip to the next episode once the end credits start, that feature is missing from mobile. If I try to fast forward to the end of the video, for some reason the next episode starts from the spot I fast forwarded to in the previous episode. Also, the comic reference to episodes in the desktop version is missing in mobile. Lastly, it’s be a great UX feature if we’d be able to “Star/favorite” the reference comics for later reading after an episode. All in all, app is dope as hell. So dope I wrote a review, I never do lol.

Ps
Waiting for the PS4 app!

DCUNIVERSEINFINITE is amazing! The content is great and there are so many clubs to join! First about the content, there are so many shows and comics to watch. It even has Batman: The Animated Series! The comics too, there are thousands of comics to choose from, originals, New 52, Rebirth, and so many more! Now the clubs, there’s a fan art, Batmobuddies, who celebrate the Batmobile, and so many more for everything. But I’ve run into trouble with one of the moderators. There was a “Ask Dr. Quinn” comment thread and I posted a question a week or two ago and the other day I posted a comment that said “Please remember to respond to me Dr. Quinn!” And a moderator took my comment, and question, down because I was “spamming” so the moderators on DCUNIVERSEINFINITE consider gentle reminders spamming now. I won’t say which moderator it was, but that brought my experience with DCUNIVERSEINFINITE down.
I would’ve given DCUNIVERSEINFINITE 5 stars if it wasn’t for the experience with the moderator. Thank you!

This latest update adds their 20k comics into DCUNIVERSEINFINITE . This is what I’ve been waiting for!

Selection is excellent. Still not 100%, and they’ve still got a few problems. Most notably Action Comics and Detective comics, with over 400+ issues to load each screen, it basically cant load it on my iPad, so I have to add them to a list on computer.

Minor inconveniences aside, THIS ..... IS ..... WHAT ..... I ...... WANTED!!!!

Don’t really care about their tv shows, it’s the comics and they finally delivered on that promise.

I think their comic reader is quite good. Not completely comiXology level good, but better than everything else out there except comiXology. The scan level for graphics is excellent.

DCUNIVERSEINFINITE itself is still rough in some places. Filter function needs work (like ability to search for other characters besides the 6 most popular ones), and everything is still a bit Batman heavy, unfortunately, but DC seems to be improving on all of it.

My biggest fear after a year is I’d have paid a subscription fee for a token comic collection while they promote their tv shows, which I cared nothing for. I am happy to report I am completely wrong and their comic book fans are being well served by the subscription. A few more app refinements and this will be a 5 star app. They’re already going to get a renewal out of me with their new comic offerings.

I was excited to get DCUNIVERSEINFINITE on all my device but I’ve soon released there are a lot of glaring issues one there’s is a lot of buffing issues and streaming problems on the mobile app and the Xbox version . Two customer support non existent they say that’s it’s your Issue and your connection with DCUNIVERSEINFINITE even though their app is the only one having streaming issues . Three the UI is not good it feel like it’s all over the place there’s no way to back track or if want to restart an episode it won’t sty from the beginning it start from where it wants to start . Four you own The rights to DC movies and TV shows but all I see is the older movies and shows and some new shows there’s no list of the new movies or CW shows and it’s disappointing the other half is why would you release your shows like web episodes on a streaming service. No one and I mean no does that for a streaming service. Just finish the project and release all the episodes at once not this wait till Friday your not a cable Chanel when I pay for a streaming service I expect all the episodes or a full season to be there .

I purchased an annual subscription, and while I’m not regretting the purchase, there’s a lot DC can do to improve this platform. For starters - DCU desperately needs more live action classics. The live action movies/ tv series are EXTREMELY LIMITED. I know the platform is new, but not a single live action Batman film is inexcusable. I don’t know if it’s an ownership/rights issue, but they are going to have a hard time gaining subscribers if they don’t drastically improve their selection. While I do like the fact that there are so many comics to read - it’s also worth mentioning that searching for SPECIFIC comics on DCUNIVERSEINFINITE is difficult. And generally speaking - the search function is very finicky. Even though I know the comic is on DCUNIVERSEINFINITE , I can search for a writer, and the issue won’t appear in the search results. It’s very annoying!! I hope they make DCUNIVERSEINFINITE more user friendly and also integrate their store into the actual app (as opposed to redirecting you to the website).

If your gonna make an app make sure you do it right I’m not trying to be picky but unfortunately your app has a lot of problems like my downloading won’t work and I thought it was just my phone but I’ve deleted DCUNIVERSEINFINITE and then downloaded it again but DCUNIVERSEINFINITE was still not working also you guy didn’t put your full sires of Shows on DCUNIVERSEINFINITE you Guys made them why can’t you put the rest on DCUNIVERSEINFINITE and the real reason I’m mad is that I don’t get the full dc experience and I have to pay for it and it’s all because y’all want to make sum money but I don’t blame you we all wanna make money but if your gonna make us pay for something then you better make it good but DCUNIVERSEINFINITE is not good and the tv show it would let me download it wouldn’t work offline so you wanna makes an app I suggest that you learn how to make one before you do an I’m not saying it’s simple to make one but all of the problems would only be acceptable if I didn’t have to waste my hard earned money on DCUNIVERSEINFINITE that doesn’t even work so to DCUNIVERSEINFINITE developers you need to fix DCUNIVERSEINFINITE you already lost my money you don’t wanna loses more so fix DCUNIVERSEINFINITE and make it worth my money and time and I’ll consider on subscribing again for DCUNIVERSEINFINITE once you add the rest of your season and movies and episodes on to your app and fix all the bugs in it to I hope you take my advice because DCUNIVERSEINFINITE is a complete mess

I love DC Universe! It has all the shows that interest me and stuff I grew up with as a kid. The amount of comics are amazing. Their is a lot for DC fans to enjoy. But DCUNIVERSEINFINITE still feels limited and I have ran into a bug. To help the developers of DCUNIVERSEINFINITE out, I will tell them what I have ran into. So, I was downloading episodes of Doom Patrol, Krypton, and Batman The Animated Series. Everything was going just fine. Until, my downloads for Krypton stop working. Now at this point I had already reached the max amount of downloads. Soon I had desired to delete my downloads of Krypton. After deleting my downloads of Krypton. I decided to download Batman The Animated Series episodes. But, I was founded with the same error screen. This was after I had freed up space. I soon kept trying to make things better myself and had uninstalled and reinstalled DCUNIVERSEINFINITE . I had no downloads now and I was still stuck with the same error screen. This is never a good thing. After all, downloads are apart of my subscription and this error/bug strips away of that core feature. DC if you are reading this, can you fix this problem. Also, can you make DC Universe on PS4 please. Thank you!

As a lover of DC and comic books I was excited to see the treasure trove of comic books and movies as well as hard to find animations available through DCUNIVERSEINFINITE. Titans is an excellent show and it keeps getting better. HOWEVER, the only way you can enjoy this service is either on your PC or on your phone. DCUNIVERSEINFINITE isn’t on any gaming consoles or cable boxes. It does have Apple TV support, but you’d be very lucky if you can get any videos to work on it in its current state. DCUNIVERSEINFINITE will also randomly lock you out of content and ask you to choose a subscription plan even if you are signed in and subscribed which is very irritating. Pretty sure that bug has been around since day 1. Love the concept, but until I see DCUNIVERSEINFINITE on other platforms it’s not worth the subscription given the barebones hardware options and bugs that should’ve been handled long ago. Looking forward to improvements, but for now I can only justify 3 stars.
UPDATE: Subscription bug has been around since the beginning and still hasn’t been fixed. Apple TV support still will stay locked in the buffering state. This is unacceptable seeing DCUNIVERSEINFINITE has been almost 4 months and is a paid service. Get it together. I’m dropping my rating.
