HIDIVE

The app has so many bugs when I tried to login my account it says sorry there was a problem. They telling me that there’s no contact available which is why I have cancelled my subscription and never want to see this app ever again

All of a sudden, the app is no longer working properly and doesn't show anything. What's wrong?

App works fine, but definitely not family friendly anime.

Every time I try to watch there is a different problem. The connection says I need to be on Wi-Fi or it will just stop playing and restart the whole video entirely sometimes when watching the subtitles don’t even appear. They need to fix this, especially when they’re raising their price. Then it doesn’t even save my last watch so every time I have to go out and select each video individually if I wanna watch a series.

This is the worst app you will ever have the displeasure of using. HiDive will not remember what you are watching, which episodes you have already watched, or even which episodes of a show have been released. Every time you open this app, you have to know ahead of time which show and episode you want to watch and go there manually.

Apps down a lot Pay for a year (only option) and can’t access content Can quick resume an episode but not a series so you have to search the title each time you close the app

I have both Crunchyroll and Hidive, this app (and the one on my tv) have the absolute worst user interface I have ever come across. If you want to watch a show and have it auto play the next episode, then every time you get off the app you have to do a search, find the show in the series folder, and then restart there. If you just hit “continue watching” the at the end of the episode you’re back to the main menu. About 40% of the time I open the app to find “no content available” I’ve tried logging out, uninstalling the app and reinstalling, checking for updates, making sure my phone is up to date. Basically the only reason I have this app is Hidive puts content on here that they don’t offer on Amazon. But I have to have the Amazon subscription as well otherwise most of the time I wouldn’t be able to watch anything on this service. So to recap, the app is absolute trash, but the content is great.

The interface is subpar at best. You have to look at your watch history just to find the next episode. There’s no way to just play the next episode on the list. You can’t skip intros or outros. Trying to find something to watch is like looking for something you’ve lost, you know it’s there but can’t find it. When using the tv app, you have to click through so many windows just to find your watch queues. But then again combined with having to look up your watch history you have to basically try to remember what episode you’ve last watched before you go to the queue… this needs to be fixed.

The HIDIVE service is fine. But, the app is horrible. - doesn’t remember where you left off in a video - Home Screen doesn’t remember accurately what you watched - search feature doesn’t use the default apple keyboards that support auto dictation - search by unchangeable default is set to return episodes, seasons, and series all simultaneously rather than just series’ and requires you to filter the results - the app incorrectly tags episodes already on the platform as coming soon or new - doesn’t give recommendations based on preferences - can’t access your own watchlist on the app if you made one in web browser version

Great content library with a moderate price tag. Unfortunately this is overshadowed by the absolutely trash UI (including searching, playback, and a bunch of other minor things) The audio provided through the app is also too compressed and you can clearly hear it. I’d honestly be fine tossing them a little more money for a better app. Too bad I’ll be canceling after this sub.
