Update!

Great app just update the subtitles on big screen and auto play

Really Slow!

Whys this app taking so long to load?

Stupid sign in process

I have subscribed to this shomi app and I can access it on my Apple TV no problem but cant access shomi in my iPhone or iPad. It asks me for email and password but when I enter my Apple ID info it says there is no account associated with my email. There needs to be a better way signing into this App. This is so confusing

Improving.

Content is getting better and the app is getting better incrementally.

Poor app

Limited selection, slow load, annoying notifications.

Would give 0 stars if I could

This app is terrible. Beyond terrible. Buggy, crashes, constantly requires reinstallation and re-authentication.

Works as it should!

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).

Slow and Distracting

Not only does it take forever to load, whenever a video does play there is a distracting purple-ish line along the bottom. Terrible app.

Huge problem with login!!! Buggy app!!!

Extremely buggy!!!

Very unfortunate

Shomi has some great content, but theyve completely failed with this app. It constantly struggles to load the movies and stops to buffer constantly during the movie. I often have to close the app and start again. Also, there is a thin purple line at the bottom of the screen that wont go away. I have neither of these problems with my Netflix app. Too bad for Shomi. Such great potential. I wont renew after my free month.

Goodbye Netflix!

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

Bad

Of Netflix, Crave and Shomi, Shomis app is easily the worst. The app will play on Apple TV sometimes, but claims Im not signed in so doesnt remember previously watched shows, and when it does work it crashes constantly. I cant sign in on my iPhone and have tried to contact Apple and Shomi numerous times, but never get a reply. It sounds like this issue is common, but Ive finally had enough and will just cancel my subscription. Rogers seems to want to horde rights to content but has no desire to make it consumable with a working app.

Works for me

Not sure why people are having issues. Works fine for me.

Freeze

Good app but it is seriously frustrating when your in an important moment of the show and then the screen freezes and all you can hear is audio. Fix it

PERFECT!!!

This app is quite good. If you use Netflix then Shomi makes up for most of the shows its missing. They are a great combination for your viewing pleasure.

Meh

Great content, but your video streaming is crap. Every 5 minutes, or less, it buffers, no matter how strong my signal is or where I am. Then, when it finally comes back, the screen is either black or stuck on one image and there is sound. Or, if Im really lucky, the sound gradually faded out and I only have video. From reading these other reviews it looks like Im not alone. Please fix this then you will get 5 stars.

Please add iPhone 6s Plus support

The app is good and working fine,,also the animations are good, however how come until now you design an app without iPhone 6s Plus support,,come on guys you should already do that.

Crap

Garbage. Cant even watch anything without it constantly freezing.

worst app ever

cant get my iPad, iPhone 6, Galaxy, laptop to work with Shomi. Utterly useless app. Netflix have nothing to fear.

Cant log in

Cant log in after signing up to the service on my AppleTV. Request password reset doesnt even send an email. Poor service. Very confusing.
