4.3 out of 5

Been using for years

2022-05-21

I’ve been using Yidio for years and I love it but with the new updates that started about three months ago, Yidio just hasn’t been working great. I use Yidio to keep track of where I am in shows and to know where shows/movies are available but every time I check off an episode as watched it will exit out of the show and then when I click on it again there are episodes that I haven’t even seen checked off as watched. It’s kind of irritating because I am a very organized person and now with this glitch it just scrambles everything and then I don’t even remember what I have seen and what I haven’t. I love Yidio and I would hate to stop using it but it is getting really tiresome and with each new update I figure they fixed the problem but nothing ever changes.

Worked perfectly until updated

2022-06-22

This was my go to app to track episodes of TV shows I watched as well as movies. However, since the update, things I add to watch list on one screen do not show up on the designated watch list screen. I’m very sad because Yidio is essentially worthless now and no other app worked as well for this purpose.

Forcing upgrade!

2022-07-23

Every time I open Yidio and try to use it, it signs me up for the paid version with the 7 day free trial (which of course if you don’t cancel the free trial, it automatically charges your account) and then tells you that it has signed you up, and the only option you have to click to clear the screen is “OK” then when I go in to try to find it in iTunes to cancel, it’s not there. I do not trust Yidio anymore. I used to absolutely love it, but since this has happened every time I open Yidio I am now deleting it and will never download it again! Very shady this app! Shame on you!

False info and lags

2022-08-24

I only downloaded this so I can find what stream service has whatever show/movie I’m looking for. Yidio works sometimes but gives false info saying certain stream services has what I’m looking for but then when I go look it’s not there. It’s also lags and delays when trying to search. Don’t bother there are way better apps to do this.

Update: I deleted Yidio when I wrote the review and have since found an app that works fantastic and does what it says it does.

It used to be great...hangS now.

2022-09-25

New One: just downloaded new update. Had hopes it would start to work again. Still just hangs on startup, and keeps hung. Yidio has not worked for me for quite some time, and there seems to be no awareness there’s an issue. Is this a problem on the big iPad? Nope, hangs on both iPads.
Cannot recommend any longer.

Btw, I am forced to use the review to report the issue since neither Yidio nor the so-called site provides actual support.

OLD Review: Absolutely my go-to app to find out whether there is a streaming video available for a show that I'm thinking about. It also shows me alternative sources of videos apps that I can explore.
Very nice.
Recommended.

Has a problem

2022-10-26

Edit: The new layout seems to mean that Yidio now only works in portrait orientation on an iPad? I am not going to pick up my device off its stand and flap it around (kinking and shortening the life of my cord), check Yidio , and then flap it around some more and get it settled again between shows. Not over and over as a daily thing, for sure. I never use portrait for anything on my iPad unless it is unavoidable, and certainly not when consuming videos. I used to like Yidio a lot, and hung in through the no-saves phases, and the slow-loading era, but ... this orientation thing doesn't look like a bug ... I think the developers chose to do this on purpose. If so, it's time for me to move on.

Previous comment:
Yidio has a nice interface and is great for keeping track of what I have watched across platforms. While it is pretty good for checking availability on various services, the prices aren’t always accurate. Unfortunately it has a problem now where it has stopped saving data recording what shows I have checked off. It had this problem for a while not long ago and it was fixed or resolved itself, and now it is doing it again. I hope it is fixed soon, and doesn’t happen again, because it has almost gotten annoying enough to go set up all my shows and etc on a different app.

Still unable to launch

2022-11-27

This used to be a great app that I used all the time to locate and watch the shows and movies that I want it. Recently something has happened where Yidio has been unable to launch ! even with a couple of app updates Yidio still does not launch ! what is going on

Not loading

2022-12-28

For some reason since the last update I can not get Yidio to load. Before it was brilliant. I was able to keep track of what episodes I watched since I watch everyone from streaming apps or devices. Now I can’t even get Yidio to load. I’ll open it and let it try and do its thing, and then it closes on its own, never loading Yidio itself. Very frustrating.
It has 2 stars because up until now, it was a 5 star app.

Nice idea.... Needs work

2023-01-29

I wanted a place to see all the streaming I already have and pay for in one place so I don't have to search each site individually. This had that option but there are no options too filter by MPAA rating and really it is pretty slow. I can usually search in all the other apps faster. I'll still use this and hope it improves.

Missing key features for me

2023-03-02

This is a decent app with regular releases, but it’s missing some key features for me.
1. The ability to sort my watch list by more than just alpha and recently added is tar stakes. I’d like the ability to sort by unwatched and IMDb ratings would be great.
2. There’s too many good shows to watch these days. I need some sort of parking lot (other apps call it an archive) for shows on my watch list that I’m not currently viewing. This way I can quickly see what’s next.
3. Sync across devices. iCloud would work, Trakt tv would be better.

Slow

2023-03-31

I always seem to experience a slow response when using Yidio . Trying to search a show - sometimes I have to type the entire name before if gives me the show (even though the suggested show up until that moment sometimes seem random and I’m wondering why the entire name had to be type before the one I was looking for appeared on the list).

-Try to click on search and I have to tap it a couple of times before I get the keyboard to type.

-After selecting a show, I can get just a blank screen with the spinning wait dial for over a minute. That’s toooo long. Other times the graphic will come up but no words or app listing.

I find myself relying less upon Yidio the find information. Don’t know what happened but it been like this for a while now.

Great app but needs some work

2023-05-02

Here’s what I think should be changed:

1) Although load times have improved with recent updates, Yidio still takes a little too long to load initially.

2) The biggest bug is that Yidio will not restore to the original position in a list after viewing an entry. For example, if I search movies by a set of MyApps and start scrolling, I may scroll through 5 pages worth of movies, find one I like, and then click it to view details. Everything is fine till this point—now here’s the problem—when I click back to return to the list, I start back at the beginning of the original list! There should be a way for Yidio to “remember” where I left off and return to that spot. Web browsers have been able to do this sorta thing since their beginning. It shouldn’t be that much more coding to add this small feature. Without fixing this bug, it makes practical use of Yidio very limited.

Pretty Good

2023-06-02

I used Yidio for a while to find out where I could watch certain shows. They seem to have moved away from that convenience feature in recent updates. Also, Yidio is very slow, and always has been. I’ve since switched to JustWatch and I like it much better.

Works great for a tv/movie app

2023-07-04

If your used to watching torrent movies, then you might get bored with the free style movies there. Good find but I’ve seen 90% of it. Interface is great!!! Hands down! Definitely worth it.

Update Fail

2023-08-04

Ever since the latest updates the “watchlist only” filter is not working which basically makes Yidio almost useless.

TV SHOWS

2023-09-05

I’m really thrilled with Yidio. They have all the Classic TV Shows the best part they are free to watch. I live alone and it’s nice to have a place to watch shows that’s has modesty so many don’t in the newer ones Thanks so much this app.

So convenient!

2023-10-07

I love and recommend Yidio. I subscribe to many different streaming platforms and hated searching each one for a particular title. My only question to the developers is: I see you have Disney Now, but when will Disney+ be included?

Search all the Legal Movie Galleries!

2023-11-07

This is exactly Yidio I was needing. I was so fed up with all the loading times associated with opening and searching each app only to find the movie I was hoping to watch isn’t available on any of my paid streaming services. Now I can locate any movie or show from all my legal streaming services in one place! I love Yidio!

BACK TO 5 STAR APP

2023-12-09

IPad landscape mode has been restored in this update so I have updated my review to reflect that. I have no idea why after so many years they would else an update that no longer supported landscape mode on the iPad but they have quickly resolved the issue so I have updated my updated my review to reflect the 5 stars that this excellent app deserves when the iPad is fully supported.

Thank you this app for reacting so quickly to this update issue!

Amazing but....

2024-01-09

Is App is great. It has all the show I want to see. I love that it’s free too. But the thing is that when I put a movie to my watchlist it doesn’t go there so I have to search it up. The other thing is that how do I watch the shows I want to watch. I press on the episode that I want to watch but then I don’t know what to press because it for say anything else. So I don’t know what to do. I want to watch the shows but I don’t want to pay anything. Thank you for taking your time and reading my review. Hopefully I get a reply to see what I can do.

Total rip-off

2024-11-20

First of all they advertise a free trial for a few days to try out before you’re charged the $4.99 but nope that charge is coming immediately. Even when you put in the apps you have it wants to show you all the platforms you don’t have so you can clearly see where their checks are coming from. It’s a nice concept executed very poorly guess I’ll continue with IMDB.

Complete trash

2024-11-20

Your app is garbage. I literally just purchased a subscription to Showtime because your app said the only place to watch Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was on Showtime and guess what, it’s not available on here. So thanks for wasting my time and money, you useless piece of trash-excuse for an app. Also, BTW, almost all the prices of your movies are wrong for every single service. For SD they’re less, and for HD they’re more.

Stopped tagging movies, sorting function dead

2024-11-20

One of the highlights of Yidio was its ability to filter and sort according to release date, tomatometer, genre, etc. Suddenly late last year either new movies just stopped being updated or someone just grew tired of tagging the movies and shows by genre or release date. The entire sort-by function is useless for me.

Great app

2024-11-20

Love it but sometimes incredibly slow especially in the search function. (Maybe 2 out of 10 times). Still awesome app and VERY helpful in finding what you want via via your existing apps so you don’t end up payin for something you could otherwise watch for free! :-)
