HIDIVE

Even your competitor’s have these features… I always watch anime on my tv, not on my phone or computer. Without these features I’ll not be using your product.

The app can’t rewind, but I can’t watch anything on the webpage either, since apparently Hidive didn’t feel like accommodating a large part of smartphone users?! The subtitles on the webpage are completely useless if you’re on an iPhone, but the app won’t let me rewind what so ever. Even illegal sites, that have porn-malware popups, are more user-friendly! How did this get released?!?

Cant even watch without supcription and the is barely working

This mus be the worst video player you can have on an iPhone. It’s absolutely impossible to move it around and there are no shortcuts (gestures) that would allow for rewinding when you want to go just a few seconds bad.

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.

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

If there were subtitles in Spanish I would have been subscribed but well

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.

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 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
