La app es cero amigable desde el celular, no dice cuales son los capítulos recientemente añadidos, es difícil adelantar el video desde la app, no se puede pausar el video, si uno toca algo se va el sonido por un tiempo y cuando uno comparte desde el celular al televisor muchas veces no reproduce el video que uno selecciona.
Worst Streaming Platform I have ever used
This is the most incompetent app I have ever used. It isn’t that hard to send an email to change my password, yet this excuse of an app is an outlier. It annoys me that most of the good animes are on this. Saying that this is where all anime fans belong is absolutely ridiculous.
Don’t use the app/ use your prime account
I read all the bad reviews and decided not to use the app. All the issues people are having seem to be fixed if you access HIDIVE through the Amazon Prime app and purchase HIDIVE there for the same price as just the app. Now that doesn’t help if you don’t have a Prime account… but it works
There are no Spanish subtitles
If there were subtitles in Spanish I would have been subscribed but well
Terrible UI and Bugs
I just want to have a convenient and legal way to watch anime and support the shows but unfortunately Hidive just can’t seem to figure it out somehow. The homepage is a nightmare to navigate. It’s hard to search for what currently airing this season and finding the show you want to watch without having to go directly to search bar. Shows also don’t show up in watchlist from time to time, episodes that are watched don’t get marked as finished, home page not loading, etc. Additionally it would be really nice if there’s comment sections, likes/dislikes, and reviews to help improve user experience.
I don’t mind Hidive having a limited library of shows, but with all the competition out there, if Hidive want people to watch anime on their streaming services, they better find a good development team or else people just going to flock elsewhere.
It’s just downright sad at this point
I canceled my subscription, but when they finally got around to doing an app update I fell for it. Since then they’ve done a couple “updates”, and nothings any better. First removed profiles, forced you to have a watchlist, and now profiles are back but still have to have a separate watch list. Then they hide the watch list, shows just disappear constantly, shows duplicate, watch history can’t keep up and show a reliable history. If you can find the correct episode in your history you left off on, it refuses to go to the next episode, it won’t show the next episodes, and you can’t manually select the next episode from your hidden watch list bc the show listing just disappeared. If you can locate the show you were watching, and try to add it to your watch list, it’ll tell you it’s already in your list but still won’t show it. It can’t be super difficult to make a functional app like this bc Crunchyroll finally added profiles, and they actually work like you’d expect. The only thing keep this from being a 1 star is the decent shows they have listed.
WHY HIDIVE
Why did you have to add a subscription to watch like it’s only 3 cause you actually can watch 1 episode that’s it so get better
Do better please
Why no next episode button?! I want to like Hidive but I shouldn’t have to relook up the show I am currently watching. Fix this UI please.
Crashing
It should be illegal to have a streaming service with this service. If illegal sites get shut down, this should get shut down. There’s a standard all streaming services offer, and this is below the bar. Why Crunchyroll has allowed this garbage to get exclusives is beyond me.
HIDIVE has improved drastically
They are making strides like some of our favorite protagonist’s. Like games in beta time is needed to develop into gems let us all continue to support the work they are doing so HIDIVE takes a pedestal along our other anime streaming services. For only 5 bucks a month the selection is impressive. Sure the app needs some quality of life improvements but in time I bet it will be a top of the line service.
