Unless your purpose in life is to watch ads, don't even waste your time. Some ads are understandable but the way they're done in this app is dreadful. A simple click-to-close pop-up ad every once in a while would be fine. But these ads are frequent, numerous, can't be closed for long periods, and you have to reload your stream when they finish. Devs must have lost their minds. Uninstalled.
i loved this application. it worked perfectly. then the update happened. it feels so bloated, not to mention the incredibly intrusive 30 second adverts that pop up at random. it's like acestream want us gone. functionality wise, it can no longer stream to my firestick for longer than 2 minutes without registering an error (content not supported) trash. deleting until fixed.
Wow, where to start without repeating every rating (except the obvious false feedback)? This was an amazing app, now it is just an advert ridden, device killing bandwidth thief. Can't help thinking it's a bit rich asking for a subscription for an app that is primarily used to stream protected content. Uninstalled, and hopefully, somebody else will pick up the protocol.
Started off such a good app, but now there are too many ads, the stream crashes every 10 minutes (which leads me to have to watch an ad every 10 minutes), and some streams can't even be opened because of a "transport file" not being found or something like that. Also, with every update, a feature breaks. The latest being the ability to play streams in Google Photos rather than the awful stock Ace Stream player.
Ads have ruined this app. I'd pay for a version that has no ads. Also I can't find a way to hide the download session stats displayed during playback in the Ace Stream Player on the top left of the screen. I just want to watch the sports not the geek stats. Note also that casting to a Chromecast ultra is not reliable anymore. I'm now having to connect via a HDMI cable to my TV to have a better chance of uninterrupted viewing.
I was a great app, but since the last update it is completely useless. I do not mind to pay 1$ a month, but it needs to work. Now no external link works, and every time I try I am forced to see a bunch of ads. Great way to destroy an app guys. If you are going to change the app that much, you should consider a period of testing, and if you have done it, i can tell you it has been a waste of time.
Used to be one of my favorite apps since the latest updates. You managed to destroy an almost perfect app with intrusive ads and glitchy behaviour. I decided to sideload an older version and boom, everything was working back as supposed. I recommend everybody to do the same.
The ads work great and theres one every time you click the screen. They are in HD and load instantly. Unfourtunatley the streams I want to actually watch don't load at all. Just stick at prebuffering forever
It doesn't play streaming content, eg soccer games. The app runs in the background, but the stream does not start or buffer. For playing random videos it's fine. I am on a Pocophone F2 with Android 10 and miui 12
I would say this app basically does what I want it to, and I don't mind paying the dollar so that I can stream to my Chromecast. But it loses a star because it forces you to give access to your device storage in order to use it at all, which could be innocuous but comes across as incredibly shady.
Update: latest update fixed issue where app wouldn't close. I have to force stop the app to get it to close, and takes forever to stream video because it gets hung up on ads.
Impossible to use to stream with my TV because of instant crashes! I've tried reinstalling, using different settings etc. I had a workaround before but now it doesn't play on my TV anymore. Please stop the instant crashes when streaming to TV!
Update is terrible and the app is now unusable. The videos don't work as you just get constant ads. The app crashes when the ads end, such a shame.
Completely bugged, impossible to cast both to Chromecast and my LG TV. It also makes mandatory giving permisison to read all my files, even though I have no intention at all of streaming local files.
The latest update makes this app ABSOLUTELY UNUSABLE! Ads, ads, and ads. Now, I understand the (free) app needs to be ad supported but ads BEFORE I know that the stream is working? Come on! Uninstalled!
Best for streaming. Yet problems to change player. Built-in player have no option for adding subtitles while playing through link. Please fix it. And no extra premium features for buyers 😟
I wish it worked as well on mobile as it does on a computer. On a s9+ it is very jittery and buffers a lot even set with a generous buffer.
Deleted. Since the recent updates, all I get is ads with hardly any streams working. Plus, it was draining my battery in the background for no reason. Shame - you have lost a paying customer.
App starts autonomously and keeps running in background even after killing it. Keeps draining battery while not being used. Please, keep it simple! I am uninstaling it now.
Excellent application! Many thanks to developers for it! And I'm ready to purchase it... BUT I have some questions... 1. Time to time I can't transfer stream to Apple TV (md199) cuz Apple TV goes away from device list. 2. There is an option that enable transfering stream to my LG Smart TV (thats great), but LG Smart TV ask safety PIN (6-digit) every time and I don't know how to enter that PIN in Ace Stream Media. Hope you can help me:) Thanks in advance!
Best app going for streaming, if someone saying it doesn't work with 100mb/s look for problems in your device you using or player, been using this app a while on my Android devices & PC 10 stars from me to acestream developer team
after the update, there's no way to stop this app from running in the background. i get that they want to monetize, but in the process, they've completely ruined a great product.
Used to be brilliant. But then update came and even though I paid for the premium version, app keeps freezing or stopping during streaming.
App is difficult to fully understand because it doesn't function as a handy tool for doing the job it is advertised for. Too many steps are required to activate it fully. And so it will take a large amount of time to get it to work the way it should! For me at this time give it one star.
I really don't understand if it's free or not! If it's paid OK but you guys must be clear about the conditions, cost etc...now, it looks like a scam!
Since the overhaul and the addition of invasive ads, I find myself watching loads (every time a stream cuts out another ad will play when loading it back up), the player doesn't buffer as quickly, and Acestream repeatedly refuses to 'quit' and runs in the background, or opens itself. I've stopped using it entirely and run streams through the browser instead. What an act of self-sabotage.
