Viki: Asian Dramas & Movies

the latest update for the app removed the casting button from the home screen. I can only choose to cast once I've started playing the media, which is frustrating. I hope there's a fix for it soon! ***edit*** constant drop from casting (when I do get it up) is infuriating actually. more than 3x in an episode. but overall, I love the access to the huge amount of content. I have the plus pass subscription and there's so much to choose from, and no ads.

App is fine and mostly intuitive. However the ads keep ruining the video streaming experience. It's one thing to have advertisements pop up multiple times throughout an episode, however it's another to have the same ad play over and over for more than 12 times in a row without allowing you to skip, or go back to the main screen. It's just stuck on an endless loop. clearing the cache does not work. closing out the app and restarting the app brings you back to the ad. Hope you can fix this bug.

Watching new dramas is fine. Rewatching old dramas is a pain. There's no setting to start from the beginning of each episode, so if you stopped right before the spoiler-y recap of the next episode some dramas have, you have to manually rewind. That's a pain when you're using Chromecast, when you just want a seamless relaxing re-watch experience. With Chromecast--having the "cast" icon only show after you play a episode instead of when you open the app is awkward. May switch to the Kocowa+ app.

I really want to like this app because I love the access to the various dramas. But given my paid membership, the bugs are annoying and it needs a UI update. - Switching between casting and watching on another device, it gives me an error about watching on multiple devices no matter how many times I restart it. - Sometimes the subtitles don't appear when I continue watching a drama. - I'd like to be able to re-watch a drama without having to go through each episode and reset the timer.

It's a good app other than they put the ad to have no ads DIRECTLY over the subtitles so you can't read them. Apparently they really want us to uninstall? I mean seriously? 😒 If they fix that I'll change to 5 stars but how am I supposed to watch it at all without seeing subtitles? You're trying to make it pay only. That's sneaky and no one likes that.
