Pros and cons of shomi_ for iPhone app for iPhone and iPad

shomi_ for iPhone app good for

I know Im probably the only one who thinks so judging by some of these reviews but honestly i love this app and use it all the time to watch almost any movie I want!
My own personal option is that shomi is way better than Netflix. I have shomi at my home also, this app is amazing for late night shows.
This is a great streaming service, works great on my iPhone 5, iPad Air 2. Netflix is International and does not curate their content. Shomi is personable and Canadian. Thank you Shomi for all your endless hours of content and willingness to push the bar for Technology.
Content is getting better and the app is getting better incrementally.
Im not sure what happened to everyone else but my experience with the Shomi app has been excellent. It streams fluently, clearly and is glitch-free. (The only issue is that there is a purple line at the bottom of the screen that becomes unnoticeable after a while).
And hello to shomi! Its got a much better selection of movies and shows that are known. Honestly the majority of the series on Netflix arent really well known, or theyre in Korean, or their just badly done. Shomi is great, they have like regular shows that are relevant to North America a pretty decent selection of blockbuster movies plus they are cheaper than Netflix. Shomi is in my opinion better than both Netflix and Cravetv

Some bad moments

So this app still functions as poorly as the day it was launched. No improvements or fixes on the original bugs I have encountered.
This is a very "buggy" app. Titles will frequently freeze while playing. The audio keeps going but the video freezes. Also, closed captioning will appear when playing through an Apple TV device and theres no way to turn it off. This app really needs fixing.
Im considering to churn because the video kept frozen every single time I tried to watch something. My internet connection is really fast, but they kept telling me to check my network. Netflix I guess Im going back with you.
You cant active your stupid service and it works horribly. Your website does not work on mobile and cant get to work on Apple TV. You are not a good solution and should be embarrassed of your company
Disconnection / slowness and many more problems using this App on iPhone / iPad / Apple TV 4 or even WEB site! Let me get right to the point. Competing with Netflix and steal their die-hard customers requires a lot more than adding bunch of movies, TV shows. DELETED!
The website is much better than this app. The app doesnt play nice with WiFi and randomly stops working or tells you that there is no internet connection when your phone shows you are connected. I like the Netflix app a lot better.
