Viki: Asian Drama, Movies & TV for Positive User Reviews

The best place for subtitles, but…So, Viki is literally the only choice I have or am willing to use for subtitles because I trust their teams’ translation into other languages. I love it and the large variety it has of different series and movies from many Asian cultures, which is mainly why I use it so much. However, the subscription packages and their prices are not worth it. I can’t go back and watch my favorite dramas after a while because they’re limited to ‘standard’ or ‘plus’ access, which is honestly very disappointing. With the price and all, plus the economic state of the world at this point, I think I’ll just stick with the free version 😅. With most movie/show-related platforms these days, everything seems to have ‘plus’ side only for those who can pay for it, and unfortunately it seems Viki is no different. I get why they are charging for membership-like subscription packages and all, but it’s just a little frustrating to attempt to return to a drama after a while only for a few episodes to be free and limits to the options I have when using it..Version: 6.25.0

Awesome appThis app is awesome with subtitles. Love love it. Hope there’s lots more great series coming..Version: 6.6.1

ALMOST PERFECT! One subtitle problem...I love this app! First off, I LOVE that you can try out the app without committing even to a trial, by just watching some commercials. I watched two seasons of a show, completely free, before even starting my free premium trial. So great! I love the comments (although to make it even better, would be cool if they were live comments, like watching it together, rather than just time stamped with the show), I love that I can watch these shows with Spanish subtitles, and I love the shows that are available! I’m not a big tv watcher so I’ve never subscribed to any streaming service before because I could never see myself using it enough to justify the cost. I can definitely see myself using this enough to justify premium! One note though on the premium version: premium allows iPhone users to cast to a chrome cast, which is great because that’s what I have in my bedroom. However, when I cast the subtitles are white with no background like on the app or on the Apple TV, so at times they’re very hard to read. And I would also like the option to show or not show comments when casting as well, because sometimes I like to read them while I’m watching because they can be funny. But the comments is more of a suggestion, whereas I think the subtitles issue is a legitimate need for improvement in terms of accessibility with this app. Otherwise, this is a great app and I highly recommend giving it a go..Version: 6.21.0

This is really creative!This app is a life saver! Whenever I see a k drama I automatically just go to Netflix, but now Netflix doesn’t have as much as a variety of shows they used to have:( Working with this app is amazing! Now I get to watch all the k dramas I want for free! This is very helpful to me and my family. Thx soooo much!.Version: 6.25.0

Help!I love this app! I am able to watch whatever I want, when I want to. But, I have a problem. The app sometimes logs me out without any notice, and when I try to log back in through my Facebook, it just freeze’s.... this has happened twice now..Version: 5.13.1

Subtitles the bestI subscribe to three other Asian TV type platforms and Viki definitely has the best English subtitles. The competition often use AI to translate and it’s often unintelligible garbage. Huge range of shows. Functionality is good, simple, nothing fancy, but love the reviews function, really helps select shows I’ll enjoy..Version: 23.4.1

Ads are a painfully stakingIt’s great to get no ads you have to pay for the service. Sometimes you have to restart because some ads just freeze.Version: 5.8.3

Best C-Drama app out there!I have been using Viki to watch Cdramas since July of 2021, and I love it! The selection of dramas is fantastic- it has basically every show that I want to watch. It never kicks me out while watching dramas, the subtitles are never slow, and (although the ads were annoying), before I got the standard subscription, i appreciated that there weren’t ads every 5 minutes. I’d say it was more like maybe 2-3 ads every 15 minutes. The subscription is super worth it, though. Even if you only watch jdramas or cdramas, it’s still worth it. Although there aren’t very many standard shows/movies for cdramas, it’s much more enjoyable to use the app without annoying ads. I sometimes browse their kdramas, and although I haven’t watch any myself, they have such a gigantic selection of them! Way over 1,000. If you’re into kdramas, then this is the app for you. I prefer Viki over iqiyi and youku mainly because the variety of cdramas on Viki is so much more diverse and they have well over 500 dramas to choose from. Overall, I’d recommend Viki to anyone who loves Asian dramas! 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Version: 6.27.0

Good but I have a complaint.First, I really love this app. I am not a pass member, but over all I would say I have a good selection of shows and movies regardless of that. I will say though I was in the middle of watching what’s wrong with secretary kim when it went pass and I was a little angry because I didn’t get to find out what happened. But ignoring that, the ads are my problem, I don’t believe it is anything on my end, but if you think so tell me, especially at the beginning of an episode, say when I am watching descendants of the sun, the show will appear as normal, but then I have to wait for a few seconds then it goes to the add, maybe it was something with the name like frontier? I don’t know, but the add WILL NOT PLAY, meaning I can not watch my show. It is incredibly frustrating, some times this happens, other times it doesn’t, but also recently, I will be watching the show, it will pause, so I will unpause it, then the add will play In the background of the show instead of me watching it. Either way, if there is something I am doing wrong please let me know because that is what’s happening right now so I wanted to tell you because I am frustrated, thank you please get back to me..Version: 6.21.0

I really love dramasI feel that the stories are so real that I can get lost in them in every innocence of love and adventure that in current novels, and I like to know the type of life in other places or customs but I also wish it was only in dramas not in the real life, but the landscapes and places have always been beautiful so every time I am fond of knowing which drama I am going to start, but on the other hand a little disappointed because I start by seeing the subtitles in my native language and I end up watching them or wanting to understand them in the language English I think that they should only finish the whole series in the my language that begins in my case is Spanish and it is unfortunate that in the middle or some episodes they cannot be read in the language in which it begin , I hope they can correct it thanks… .. and let dramas continue like this.Version: 6.23.1

Can’t watch videos anymore after software updateI just updated my software on my iPhone and all the videos disappeared from the App. First, I barely managed to log in. Kept showing error, then after the fifth attempt, I loved in but only pictures appear, no videos (all blank) and nothing shows up either in the search of what I already started watching. Please fix. IOS 13.6, iPhone XS and United Kingdom. :(.Version: 6.10.1

Thank you VIKII’m a Diehard fan of all Asian movies, shows and series. I was previously watching on Netflix but found they didn’t have enough content available. I’ve found VIKI to be the only subscribed services to be reliable, unless I’m not looking properly. Since subscribing to VIKI I have not been able to watch English shows since. Although my first language is English, I’ve recently starting picking up the basics in Korean and Chinese. Love the cultures. Love how they maintain they’re skincare. Pet hate; people complaining about subs. Just wait for it to be completed instead of low scoring a show. Wish; I could watch all VIKI shows in Australia..Version: 23.2.1

The beat app EVER 🤩🤩🤩This is a very good app for international people to use and enjoy, I really love this app as it also has a range of different types of kdramas and not just kdramas , cdramas and reality shows which are very enjoyable, half of these series can be found on Netflix but not all of them for example: to the beautiful you or melting me softly 🥰🥰🥰 I 100% can and will recommend this other people and the fun thing is that you can relatively see your favourite actor/actress in any series they take part in 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 I’m glad I found this app because you also get to learn Korean the the culture of Koreans from the past and present, I myself have learnt a few phrases and enjoy binge watching when I have time to spear.Version: 6.8.2

Worth the subscriptionThank you for having such a wide variety of series to view. I highly this app to anyone outside of Sth Korea, China and Japan. It is truly worth the subscription instead of adhoc and out of order. No annoying ads! Best investment. Don’t even consider subscribing to Netflix..Version: 23.1.0

App crashingThis app keeps crashing and takes too long to load videos. I have to keep logging out and signing back in to watch videos on here..Version: 5.5.0

Great Value and Excellent ViewingI joined Viki because my addiction to K drama needed feeding and I have been generally very happy with the quality of dramas on offer, and certainly the subtitles make more sense more often than on Netflix (I have for example watched the same drama on both platforms to compare so I know this is true.) Dramas are increasingly out soon after release in Korea and subs are very added very promptly. In facts subs have improved in that respect in the last few months. If I have a complaint at all it is that many dramas are listed as ‘not available in your area’ which is very frustrating as this seems to be many ‘older’ dramas - ie pre 2013 - especially those starring Jang Hyuk - one of my favourite actors. I would happily take an option of an increased subscription if I could have access to all the back catalogue as available in ( presumably) the U.S. Maybe feature a ‘Vintage K Drama’ option..Version: 6.27.0

App keeps replayingThis app is really good and it has so much of the k dramas I’ve been looking for. The only problem I have with this app is there is wayyy too many adds and the adds keep replaying over and over again even if I restart the app. Im also sad that I can’t cast to my tv without premium but overall this app is pretty cool just too many adds..Version: 6.26.0

Well worth itI definitely don’t regret getting the app, it was great. I was originally using it to watch stuff in Chinese to help me learn for my Chinese exam and found it to be the best tool for revising as episodes are subbed in English (and many languages) and easy to use. Viewer experience is really good even with the ads and my Chinese speaking really improved after using it.Version: 6.11.2

It had potentialI came over from Dramafever in hopes to still enjoy my dramas. At first it was pretty good, I paid for the American Plus Oass with Kocowa and thought that I would have access to all the shows that related to Kocowa. This however was wrong. The problem began with the app not letting me watch Kocowa shows saying I was not paying for that, but I was and I checked with Apple to make sure that I was. I was going to contact them about that but decided to wait about a week in case it was something in the app that they were trying to fix for others too. That didn’t happen, and today an addition problem arose. Now I am getting advertisements throughout my shows. This is clearly not acceptable if I am paying $9.99 to not get adds and to watch the shows I want. Anyways I have emailed them, and until they respond to this issue I will leave this comment here. I have heard that some others have tried to email Viki but got no response. So if I don’t either, I will be unsubscribing and getting a refund from Apple..Version: 5.8.2

Looks coolSeems and looks cool just wish for more and hope for more Japanese shows and movies as that’s the whole reason I found this app and downloaded it. Would be nice if this app could have the live action anime films like Tokyo revengers and the promised neverland and others as there’s no way to watch legally out side of Japan…would be cool if they got the stage plays too like the my hero academia one and seven deadly sins ones and so on as those are in the same position too if they make these improvements then definitely a 5 star and I’ll definitely be using this app a lot.Version: 22.4.0

5/5 I love this app. My favourite. I use this app more then netflix or prime. Best series everI never really leave reviews for apps but I love this app more than Netflix I certainly use it more. Not only can u watch your favourite programs but it’s super interactive. You get short bio”s on your favourite actors and you can post comments about the show love this app! My favourite. you are watching. Love this app 5/5.Version: 6.28.1

So goooood. Perfect for what I needAhhh this app is so good! I’m watching Korean dramas legally and it’s free! How much better could it be? I’m so thankful for this app and I’ll tell you one thing...I downloaded this app to watch the one drama called Hwarang(I love the Kpop Group called BTS and one of the members are in this drama) but there are so many other ones to watch too! I’ll just say one thing...at times, there are over three ads at once and it’s a little annoying. If you could fix that and give a variety of advertisements as well, they wouldn’t be as bad. To be honest, it’ll be more interesting because I’ll be seeing more different ads instead of the same ones over and over. That’s all the feedback I have for you and once again, thank you for making this!.Version: 6.9.0

Viki TeamI would like to acknowledge everyone who is involved with Rakuten Viki but especially to all the translators who work so long and hard to make it possible to understand and enjoy the many shows/movies that Viki offers. A large range of genre’s to choose from and guaranteed weekly additions. Keep up the awesome work team!.Version: 23.1.0

Ummm idk what’s happeningIf anyone know the solution please tell me. I can’t download the app it’s taking forever. I don’t know why it’s doing it so can somone help? I tried different thing but I guess I have to just wait. But I hope this doesn’t happen to other people as well, because if it does, can you guys fix that? Thanks..Version: 5.13.1

Too much adsThis app is really good but I think they make you watch many ads so you would want to buy the premiere. But the app has many dramas I can watch and enjoy!...Version: 6.11.2

Love it but still needs fixingsOk, I like the new design very nice but I have been noticing a few issues for a while that could be fixed. Such as the information section about each show. I noticed that when you go into some series or movie the Regions is not available at the top. The same goes for the total episodes and available episodes. Some series show that information and some do not. There are times I need to Google the total episode amount so I can see how many episodes still need to be aired. It will be great if the same information format is followed throughout the app. I have the new Apple TV which I downloaded Vicki and logged in, when I go to shows I watched it shows I didn't watch it. The Apple TV Vicki version does not match the iPhone or iPad version their not in sync at all. It will be wonderful if they were. I am a Vicki Pass Plus subscriber so it will be great to have these issues resolved. Thank you so much.Version: 6.23.0

Expressing my love to Viki 😍😍😍!!VIKI is one of the most app I use and I love.I think it is because I am Asian fan,but I can't hide the fact that viki is an app that make me happy by providing every type of drama and movie I love also it is easy to use the app than online because it's easy to find your fave selection.❤️❤️Finally I would like to say thank you to all viki subtitle team and the one who created that made my life easier with Viki💋💕💕..Version: 5.4.3

Go-to AppAddictive but AWESOME! Worth paying the monthly membership for tbh lol.Version: 6.1.0

Being a Viki user for 4 yearsI have been a Viki user for 4 years. I started out as a free user and loved the app so much as it is unique feature of timed comments which I find so hilarious and add to the show you’re watching so greatly. I quickly subscribed but due to my studies, I didn’t want Kdrama to get in the way so I cancelled my subscription. I am now back after 2 years to watch true beauty because I read the WEBTOON. I could have chosen another app or website but decided to renew my Viki subscription because of how much I love the timed comments feature!.Version: 6.15.2

I love itIt’s a great app! No pop ups, just too many ads.Version: 5.8.1

My personal thoughtsI wish I was able to watch meteor garden on it even tho I watch it on Netflix it just seems better on here and also I wish I was able to cast to my tv without being a premium member but other than that I love this app very good totally recommend ❤️❤️❤️.Version: 5.4.3

I love VikiI found Viki during COVID lockdown and it has been making me happy ever since. It is one of the best platforms for watching Cdrama and always has some of the best subtitles. I love the little explanations they give sometimes to explain to non-Chinese viewers the meaning of certain phrases or actions they may not be familiar with. This has really helped my understanding of the dramas. The app performs well and my only suggestion would be to add a function to skip the end titles without leaving the play position in the same place. Otherwise when you rewatch the drama it jumps to the end titles on the episodes where you click next episode. Overall I totally love Viki and now pay a year in advance as I feel confident it will continue to provide me with many hours of enjoyment. The entertainment value is well worth the subscription fee. Keep up the good work xx.Version: 23.5.0

I LOVE THIS APP read for some recommendations!I’m addicted to this app so many great shows ! Definitely worth the money for the pass! If I may angels Last mission:love , to all the guys who loved me, W , while you were sleeping and suspicious partner, touch your heart, the liar and his lover , and Guardian:the lonely and great god are all 10/10 recommendations to watch! I have plenty of others but those are some of my top picks. The app itself works great for me I never have issues. I love that you can follow actors on there and see all the shows those actors specifically are in because there is a few actors I love and it makes it easy for me to see all the dramas they are in! That is one of my favorite features. Any show with kang ki young is usually hilarious he’s a funny actor I watched him in bring it on ghost and i could not stop laughing he’s usually in supporting roles but he’s great ! as for my favorite main actors are lee dong wook, yoo in na, lee jong suk, jung hae in, ahn jae hyun speaking of ahn jae hyun my love from the stars was good he was more of a supporting role in that one tho however none the less a good show ! OH LEE hyun woo in the liar and his lover SO GOOD! Anyways sorry I know I’ve rambled on if you read this all the way through your a champ thank you haha OH developer wise I’d love to see this app on Xbox one so I can watch it on there..Version: 6.10.0

It this normal? I’m worrying a bit😰I just signed up for the standard pass, for like $8 which apparently doesn’t get taken out until after the 7 day free trial and I’ve already given them my credit card details but I still can’t watch the newest episode (ep 3) of HIStory 3: make our days count?? Is this normal or should I be worried, could viewers let me know? 😳😰.Version: 6.0.3

ReveiwThe only thing that spoils the viewing experience is the ads and the frequency of them in each episode :(.Version: 6.1.0

Please make these change’sI personally really like this app but it has so many ads like every five minutes maybe when it says skip add skip ad’s and it stops all of them and at the start of the adds it is a bit pixelated and the same ads are repeating and repeating and it is a little annoying so find some other company ask to have a advertisement instead of google tv ads and PlayStation stuff.Version: 22.8.2

Thank youBest ever application thank you Korean Asian drama beats any other cultures tv shows..Version: 5.9.6

Love VikiI love this app so much! I rarely have issues with connection, etc. I have the Viki Plus membership and it doesn’t go to waste, especially this year. My only complaint, is when you are looking for a new show in your watch list, you click on the show to read the description, you might decide you want something else. If you decide to go back and keep scrolling through your list, it automatically goes to the start of this watch list instead of going back to where you chose the last show. Makes it hard to go through multiple to read the description....and sometimes you accidentally click on something and bam, you have to start over. My watch list is very long, so it takes too long to scroll. The format also seemed to have changed. There are times when I want to read about a cast member when watching the drama, but if you click on the cast button now, you can click on one person and when you click out, it takes you to the home page. It wasn’t like that before, you could easily go back and forth, so I’m not sure what happened there. This is the best app for watching your favorites!.Version: 6.14.2

SubtitlesThe subtitles are in a white font when they are screencast. So parts of the subtitles are un readable, please fix the font..Version: 23.9.0

These one star reviews are ridiculous.Honestly get over yourselves. Complaining about ads and free content?? I understand that your favorite drama may have been put on premium only or whatever but there are so many good dramas that are FREE!! For example W, My Sassy Girl, Level Up, 100 Days My Prince, Mischievous Kiss, He Is Psychometric, Boys Over Flowers, Go Go Squid!, Love In Time, You Are My Destiny, do I need to go on? So what you have to sit through a total of 7 minutes of ads, you’re getting an hour worth of content. Grow up and stop expecting everything to be handed to you for free. You watch ads for content and companies make money but putting the more popular shows on subscription only. It’s really only the newer popular shows. The only problem I have with this app is that the ads don’t load which forced me to buy standard subscription. But other than that it’s very good..Version: 6.20.1

Can't do without VikiBy far better than most other apps out there. up to date airs and great work by subbers. Just wish the restriction to air dramas I want to watch would be lifted as it can take awhile to get a license to air particular shows If other sites don't have what I want to watch. Other than that love it.Version: 4.15.2

Please make it available to AustraliaI really love this app. It allows me to watch many K-drama shows that are now some of my favourites. I would have given it a 5 stars rating however I didn’t because there are shows that is restricted to my country, which is Australia (like Hwarang). So I really hope the developer would make it available to Australia. Thank you!!.Version: 5.4.1

Actually really good! I thought this was too good to be true!Actually really good- I’ve watched tons of drama’s on here without any bother- only ads since I don’t pay for stuff- but they aren’t even that bad only like 6 seconds which is bearable! Has English subs all the time:)! There are a few shows which aren’t available in my country though- not sure why? But it’s ok most are available. Again there’s shows you can only watch with the pass but again, there aren’t too many that I feel like I’m limited and need to pay..Version: 6.10.0

Subtitling delayThe only thing about Viki gets two stars it’s the subtitling. If you can only upload episodes when they are done being subtitled this would make your app beyond good. Don’t worry about being fast to load new dramas, new episodes or movies just because they on air. Because not all of us speak nor understands Korean and Chinese so uploading the episodes it’s not doing any good but makes us to lose the interest and frustrated. But if you upload anything with the sub then it makes us interested to follow the story without getting board. And I believe that you created viki app for your English speaker fans not fit the native speakers so if I’m right them pleases consider my suggestion to you. I as one of your English speaker fan will be satisfied and happy if I can watch all my dramas already subbed and I rather to wait for them to be done with English sub then just to watch the pictures. Other than that I love your app and I appreciate your good job and time. Also I thank all your staff and your translation team. Thank you for all your hard work..Version: 6.3.0

Love the AppHave been using it for years and has great Kdramas and Cdramas. I do wish all their content could be provided to all regions though and not have to constantly submit for consideration to apply for licenses. I also wish they could have more filters for genres and options to remove certain genres from the account to be more customisable. Nevertheless I love Viki for its content and on time updates with subs..Version: 23.10.0

Great but limited japanese showsLove this app but I wish it had more japanese shows! Even if you have the japanese equivalent of the shows featured in Korean it would be good. Also even with a paid subscription we can’t access shows from the recommended or featured list (created by others) and non subscribers couldn’t even see the shows that we were watching. Maybe the app creators can provide more transparency as to what shows we get when we subscribe. Why can’t we see the recommended shows even after subscribing? I think the region also makes a difference. If you are in Japan most shows are restricted. Love this app just wish there were also more japanese shows too..Version: 6.0.3

Asian NetflixThis app allows me to watch all the asian shows and movies I cannot see on Netflix. It’s truly a great app. It even provides amazing subtitles! Some things that are not so awesome though, you sometimes have to wait till the new episodes are unlocked if the series is on going. Unless you are not premium you have to wait. They also have some ads, but not a crazy amount. They are annoying in the way that the same crying window ad plays over and over or etc. and some things I watch are not available in my country, please fix this. Even though it’s very few shows I would like to freely watch them without having to go on a hunt for an app that I can watch my show on. I think this app would get a 5 start rating if they removed ads and would let me watch certain shows in my area. I don’t mind waiting for some episodes or movies till they unlock, but please, to the developers take my requests in consideration to bettering the app and the rating..Version: 6.7.1

Great Customer Support!I wanted to leave a review for your Customer Support. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I was having trouble with reading the subtitles on my tv app and was unable to adjust the size, font or other settings so I could adequately read and enjoy what I was watching. Becoming frustrated, after doing everything that I could think of to resolve the issue for myself, I sent an email to Customer Support pleading for help. This was on a weekend morning and I was prepared to have to wait for a response. To my GREAT surprise, I had a response within 9 minutes!! The young lady (Joy) who replied was incredibly friendly and provided crystal clear directions for what steps to take to resolve my issue. I had been on the right track with my original troubleshooting, but she was able to give me some further instructions to get it working. Best Customer Support I have dealt with in a long time!.Version: 23.11.0

English Subs1. Am really grateful to have the Eng Subs on most shows, but was so disappointed when I got to Ep 27 in my current series that there was no more subtitles done (there's 46 episodes)! 2. Also I'd really appreciate a download facility (as per Netflix) so I can watch when I don't have internet access.Version: 5.10.1

Write a review!I love Viki, I so enjoy the escape into other cultures, the insight and pleasure I’ve gained is immeasurable. I’ve loved watching the development of social issues, and how different each country tackles them. My only issue is that I feel a little protected from some TV series and/ or films that have a rating higher than M15. I really would love to see more….Version: 22.5.0

Amazing service! Thank you so much!!This is such an amazing app which has a fantastic array of shows, and all free subs. Thank you so much to the sub teams for all your hard work - I love watching Chinese and Taiwanese dramas, and you have made them so readily available. There's also some great info on the shows and the actors (so it's easy to just watch all the stuff your favourite actor is in!), as well as very easy to use profile to save all my favourite shows. This app is amazing, and totally free to use - thank you so much! Makes it easier for me to try and learn Chinese :D.Version: 5.2.0

Thank you!I really love this app! I’ve always been looking for dramas online to watch but it took me forever to find. Luckily I have this app where I can just search up the drama I want to watch and it’s already on here! THANK YOU SO MUCH! 🥺🥺.Version: 6.6.1

Amazing but....ehI’ve been using Viki for ages, the Dramas are great! Yes there’s a lot of adverts but for what we’re getting for free it’s not bad. Please don’t add more. A few dramas are on Viki Pass but usually become available after a few days so not too bad. BUT I recently bought a 1 month free trial and 1 month subscription but my account doesn’t recognise it. I’ve waited a week as suggested on the website and contacted the support help which mentions a reply the next day but it’s been a week. It’s put me off buying a subscription which is sad as I was looking forward to it. I’ve also had to cancel my existing subscriptions which I bought through the app.Version: 5.0.1

AdsToo many ads please no ads i love watching dramas on this app is just ads its annoying, not interested in any of the ads showing Thanks🙂.Version: 6.20.1

VikiLove this app, watch it every day. 10 plus..Version: 23.9.0

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!Not all episodes of each series you watch will have subtitles. Nothing is more frustrating than watching an episode of a movie only to discover some parts have subtitles and some don't. Even more enraging is watching an entire series then finding out that the final episodes DO NOT have ANY subtitles! I paid to watch AND understand Korean dramas. Viki is clearly misrepresenting their app and the service they provide. Equally frustrating is that VIKI HAS THE WORST CUSTOMER SUPPORT TEAM. The NEVER get back to you whenever you report a problem. All they do is send you the same computer generated email with a different reference number each time you report a problem. Their email basically states that "due the rise in help requests, it may take some time to get a response from them". I guess a lot of people are having problems not just me, because I've been asking for help for over 2 weeks now..Version: 5.8.1

South Korean dramas kept me going 2020In the pandemic of coronavirus I suddenly discovered CRASH LANDING ON YOU. It was the best thing I had seen for years so took me to this website. I have watched so many South Korean dramas that totally put anything I have ever watched before in the losers category. Rakuten Viki thank you ( even though I have to pay) the shows and movies are thoroughly refreshing and I love your service. Currently watching GOBLIN❤️ It’s so wonderful so thank you I can watch 5 years later 💜💜💜💜💜.Version: 6.20.1

Happy customerI would be absolutely lost without Viki. So many great shows to watch from various countries. I had some issues a while ago & they seem to have been fixed now. Support staff were wonderful & very helpful to this old lady. Many thanks & keep up the good work. Josie 💖💖.Version: 23.10.0

Good App!I first found this app when I was trying to find a place to watch “What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim.” I really like this app! Not only can I watch Kdramas, but also other shows from Thailand or China. I like that you can turn off the times comments because I find them distracting. I also enjoy the cute little names they give the translators for the subtitles! Having the learning feature is pretty neat too! I only have two minor issues with this app. First off is the variety of ads. I understand that since I’m using the app for free I have to sit through ads, but sitting through the same three ads for over an hour gets annoying. The only other issue I’ve had was for one of the shows I was watching, it didn’t have all of the episodes. I couldn’t find the last two episodes anywhere else and was sad that Viki did not provide all of them. But that only happened once. Otherwise all the other shows have been complete! I use this app a lot. Since I’m in college and have some down time, it can be nice to just pull up the app and watch the shows! All in all, it’s worth downloading!.Version: 5.8.2

A miracle!!Honestly, this is so great!! I used to watch suspicious partner and Strong Girl Bongsoon on Netflix but it’s my cousins friend acc so we don’t know the password to it and it’s only on the tv so to have this is just great!! And for frEE TOO KQKENDIEI it’s awesome download it trust me✌🏽👍🏽.Version: 5.8.3

You have no reason not to download.You literally have no reason not to download this app, there are so many FREE subtitled dramas that you can watch! Yes there are ads but that’s no different then when you would watch something on tv. (You can get rid of the ads for a couple of pounds a month, if you’d rather stop the adds.) . (I WILL SAY) If subtitled dramas are not for you then I would not recommend, but at least give it a go you might be really surprised. I find reading the subtitles keeps me focused on the drama compared to when I usually watch tv and it’s more of a background noise as I’m not really paying attention..Version: 6.13.1

Amazing VIKIThis app is really amazing like in the title. I really enjoy watching on here and most of it is free unlike other apps/websites which make you pay or it’s sketchy bit this app is really good. However I really wish if the creator(s) can make all the drama’s free because there are certain ones I want to watch that are not free or unavailable in my area so that could use some attention. But overall it is a really good app for all users whether you are starting to get into this content or whether you have been watching for ages I give this app a 5star rating!🤩.Version: 23.5.0

Amazing appThis app lets you watch Asian dramas for free😆 I had never watched a k drama before my friend recommended flower of evil on this app and omg it was such a good show I then watched sky castle (also amazing) and the penthouse 🥰. Most of the shows on the app are like 1 hour long so endless entertainment 🥳🥳 It says it has ads but I have never had an ad on anything I have watched - maybe it’s a glitch or I am lucky 😂 so watching shows is good. However after leaving the app and closing the tab the show that I am watching when I click back onto it it gets frozen and takes ages to load back up so I would recommend not to close tabs if you are watching and just want to go onto another app for a moment. Overall, this app is great, free and opens you up to the whole of Asia and their culture and amazing shows..Version: 6.19.3

Viki is my go-to entertainment appDiscovered Viki last year and it is a must-have app that offers a broad variety of enjoyable new and classic Asian programs. It is my #1 entertainment App that is portable as is available to go on my cell phone & tablet. I would, however, consider the idea of double checking the English translations for accuracy and better dialogue flow if Viki would contact me. These shows have opened my eyes to Asian cultures and customs that previously I knew little about especially: honorifics, formally confessing Love that seems so widespread with Asians, eating well and sleeping well, soju and wedding and funeral venues. The stunning outer beauty of Asian peoples as well as the inner beauty can be most compelling! It would seem people around the world are the same and we all want to enjoy the good things in life despite hardships and tribulations that sometimes we must endure. I for one enjoy a great story that is not laced with unnecessary and distracting profanity, sex and extreme violence. Viki has provided programming that doesn’t force me to clench my teeth! Thank you for expanding into the American market and keep it coming! I will continue to be your #1 Fan! :).Version: 23.6.3

The bestI love it soooo much.Version: 6.7.0

Love it!My go to site for anything K-drama or C-drama! I rather watch subtitled shows on Viki than anywhere else. Which makes it kinda disappointing that Netflix is getting dramas as well. Not a big fan of Netflix subbers. They take out the culture of a drama that are gleaned from the spoken language most of the time. I don’t speak or write either Chinese or Korean but I spent over a decade of watching Asian dramas...over 2 decades actually if I didn’t want to reveal my age, heh! But anyways... I love this app. It’s easy to use. I’d say the only con for it would be the rewatching of a series. I’m the type that gets very impatient so I would most of the time skip the ending credits and go on to the next video. The problem with that is, if I were to start a series all over again, the episodes won’t start at the beginning. I would play an episode and when that is over, skip to the next video only for it to start at the ending credits of that video. That gets annoying real quick. Especially, when I have to deal with a lagging internet..Version: 6.16.0

Good,I’ve been a costumer for yearrrrrs and I love it.Version: 23.10.0

Satisfied viewerThis is my favouriting app!! Thanks for letting me access amazing Korean and Asian drama!! Simply the best😍👍🏽5⭐️.Version: 5.2.0

I would recommend but….I would recommend but a few things to be aware of are 1. Sometimes the English translation isn’t ready so you have to wait a bit. Which is fine unless you’re on a series that’s so good waiting is tragic :-) 2. It doesn’t work on my TV so I’m restricted to my phone or son’s iPad. Which means I’m forced to take healthy breaks away from the screen as reading subtitles on small screens does bother my eyes. So I guess it’s good and bad unlike Netflix which I unhealthily binge watch shows on the tv. So it’s a glass half full scenario really 3. It doesn’t have all my shows that I want to watch but it does have a fair amount to choose from 4. Love some of the functionality that Netflix doesn’t. Like being able write a review so I remember what my views were of that show or reading other reviews but most of all being able to create multiple library lists for myself like my favourites or top ones or anything really. I currently have 3 library lists which is in addition to the standard lists like watchlist, continue watching 5. I don’t like that when I watch from the continue watching list that it’s not as easy to manoeuvre back to the shows info page can only do it from the watchlist 6. Overall a great app but there are some buts. As I love the shows I just put up with them as it’s the shows I want to see..Version: 22.11.1

I love this so much but..Well, I love this really but the first time I came across this I was wondering, “Are these videos made from KOCOWA?” I never got the answer. I noticed that they also have ads that you can’t skip very often. I really like this app but the thing that annoys me is the ads that keep popping up and I can’t skip it. The thing I’m worried about is that if I’m watching a sad scene, the ad will just pop up randomly and disturb the moment. I’ve had KOCOWA recently and this app and KOCOWA was really similar. I downloaded this because it had more ratings. Specifically I was looking for a Korean tv show app that is possible you could skip ads. Like I said, I really enjoy this app. I would’ve given it 5 stars but it’s not exactly what I expected. I really hope you make some kind of change to ads like being able to skip them. KOCOWA also did the same thing. I really really LOVE this app but in my mind it is a 5 star rating for me!.Version: 5.10.1

Fantastic appWorks great on both my iPhone and iPad. Love the content, I watch predominantly Korean and Chinese dramas. For the small amount that I pay each month it is well worth it to watch these dramas legally and add free (I pay for premium without adds). Lots of new “on air” dramas as well. Thanks Viki !!.Version: 5.9.6

Release more Kdrama and Korean Movies for Australian region.To be honest this app is great, streaming is awesome just like Netflix, more variety of kdrama and Cdrama than Netflix. The only reason Im giving it a 3 is because most of the Dramas Are not available in my Region Australia. You pay for Standard service for no ads which is great but at least release more Korean Movies and Kdramas to Australia. Thank you for your reply, understand that this is out of your hands and in saying this updated to 5 star its a great app!.Version: 6.27.0

Honestly pretty goodFirst of, I downloaded the app because I’m a fan of kpop, And I want to know more about the Korean culture, Movies, Food, etc. So as soon as I download it, It makes you choose an account. And makes you put some other stuff that I forgot. But it’s honestly not that bad as people over-dramatically tell their ‘experience’. But I’m giving you who’s looking at my review, A tour. You get granted with a lot of cool looking dramas. (You also get you choose what you want to watch btw) there’s like dramas, romance 🌚💅, Korean drama, comedy, action, adventure, EVEN ANIME BRUH LIKE THATS NOT RLLY NEEDED BUT ITS KINDA GOOD DOE! There’s even arts and crafts and beauty like what bro- and also! When you enter like a drama or whatever you wanna watch there’s like funny comments aswell, And there’s REVIEWS on the drama. Next is when you click on me, You see like follow your favorite actor, But y’all can do that yourselfs. And I don’t want this to be to long, but there’s also ADS THAT ARE ANNOYING! So that’s my only complaint, hope this helped a bit. Now go read another review.Version: 6.10.0

Pretty good but....Overall the app is really good and I love watching Kdramas on here but, you have to wait before you can watch the next episode which is fine but, if you don’t have premium, you have to wait even longer which is really annoying. That’s the only issue I have with it and I get that there needs to be benefits with having premium but, instead of making people with normal accounts wait longer, the amount of days they wait is shortened to 3 days instead of 20..Version: 6.16.0

Loading problemsSince the update whenever I open a video, it loads to the last point that was viewed, then freezes showing only a still image, no option to close or scrub, I have to close the app and reopen and it still doesn’t work. Now it’s resulted in me restarting my iPad and it sometimes still won’t load. Now I have to skip the episode entirely in order for a video to play.Version: 6.19.1

5 for content -3 for technologyI used to love this app. They have the best content for Kdramas, but starting about a month or so ago the subtitles got out of sync when using Chromecast (works fine on my phone & iPad, but who wants to watch it on small screens). The subtitles now show way before the lines are spoken. I thought it was only affecting the older content, but I tried watching Youth of May, which just came out in May and it has the same problem. I watched one show in spite of this issue, but it was impossible to enjoy. It's so confusing when you can't figure out who's speaking. I tried to go to the Help Center to see if I could find out what the problem was and if there was something I could do on my end to fix it, but it's unavailable right now. I wish Viki would put the movie rental business on hold until they could fix the issue that their paid subscribers are struggling with. I'm about to cancel my subscription until it's fixed. What's the point in paying for something that I can't use. I'll just have to settle for Netflix..Version: 6.23.0

Overall happy, there’s just a few tweaks that’s needed.This is a great app all round, there’s a good selection of shows to choose from and generally I’m quite happy with it. Most of the Korean dramas on here are not on Netflix, so for the cost of £3.99 a month, I’m happy to pay this. There are some tweaks that need to be made, I’ve been abroad quite a bit this year, if there was an option to download shows like there is on Netlifx, this would be a major improvement. It would be great where instead of having to AirPlay shows, if I want to watch one on my Samsung TV, that Rakuten (the parent company) could add Viki to the Rakuten TV app..Version: 22.7.0

No words!But just awesome :).Version: 23.9.0

VikiVery good app and I’m happy to pay the subscription however the subbers are volunteers so if you start watching a show while it’s airing you could be waiting around for another week for 1 episode to be subtitled which is very frustrating, I would happily pay more for viki to pay for subbers, I end up binge watching other dramas in between and then forgetting what’s happened in the one I’m waiting for, also a couple of times Iv been part way through a drama and suddenly it’s “restricted, not available in your region “ because they no longer have the license...you can imagine how well that goes down. So in conclusion wait until a drama is 100% subbed before you start and binge watch it incase it becomes restricted before you finish it..Version: 5.9.6

One of the best apps to watch Asian dramas inViki has variations of different Asian dramas and even includes some of the dramas that aren’t in many Asian drama sites. Now this might seem enough but a lot of people seem to complain about the ads etc. but every other site has the same options just as a premium membership where there isn’t any ads. Viki does have the viki pass Standard/Plus but If you cant afford it there is solutions to getting it which viki gives. One is getting the free trial to see If you want to get it later or Two which is doing translations, this is one of the most unique thing I’ve seen, Volunteering to do subs and It includes every language there is. This is good for people to get practice into translating and not only that but viki gives special perks one being the viki pass. If you can’t afford it then don’t complain just work for it. Everyone knows one to two languages. You can also learn a language with the learn mode on which is really helpful for practice. I don’t see how this is bad, 10/10 rating for this app!.Version: 6.9.0

Would be 5 stars but….accessibility worriesViki is an amazing app and I’ve been using it for quite a long time now (since start of covid :D) Streaming is very easy to do and you can keep up with all the latest dramas even when their on air, that’s if it’s available in your country of course. I’ve just recently bought the Viki pass so I could use their amazing chrome cast feature and access more dramas. However, when I had it streaming I noticed that my subtiles were quite small and had been blending into my show to much which made it hard to see. This normally wouldn’t be a problem for me, but I have recognized that this will be an issue for others with disabilities. Perhaps adding more subtitle settings like shadows or borders for both mobile/pc streaming and chrome cast streaming will help really make this more of an app for everyone. Thank you for taking the time to read this! I hope this reaches you all well!.Version: 23.4.1

The review of a lifetime jkIt’s alright It is quite annoying though when you want to watch something for free and you can’t play it because it’s says standard on it.Version: 6.0.3

Staying with Viki after all these years!I have to say, I have used Viki for many years now and seen a lot of changes. Somethings about Viki from my personal experience. When you contact them, they respond. I messaged them on their Facebook Page and got a very detailed response. Also if you request new content they will tell you if they can or can’t get a show. It may take time for them, but if they say they will get it, they get it. You won’t find this amount of content on another site in my region. The subs are done by teams, at least they were. So an upload is raw, then a percentage shows on the thumbnail of how much has been subbed. This is apparently a hard thing for some users to understand, so an explanation of this would be nice for newer users, being that the ratings of shows and this app could suffer, simply because of misunderstanding. So any new users reading this, a new episode is usually 100% subbed within 24- 48 hours. I watch unsubbed and then subbed after. Great way to test your language skills as well, if you’re trying to learn..Version: 5.10.2

It's good just ONE problem 👀Okay. So i understand how there's stuff like adverts and certain rules put in place for you guys to make money and to avoid breaking the law...But PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE allow us to screen record clips from shows properly. Like i tried screen recording but it first didn't let me. Then when i did manage to screen record, it was just a black screen with only the audio - I want the actual VIDEO too, not just the audio. I understand it's to like avoid copyright but i don't even want to post it anywhere, it's just to keep in my camera roll because it's a funny scene. Not a huge complaint about this one, but it would be cool if we could edit the size of the subtitles to be bigger as they are quite small in my opinion cos i have rubbish eyesight and it puts a strain trying to read them..Version: 23.6.3

Hey🕺The app is alg it’s just the adds bro y’all gotta atleast put 1 add instead of 3 adds THATS 24 secs but overall the app is mf good.Version: 6.25.0

Really liked itI love the app and the many amazing dramas it has. I also like how it has things like cast available to see while watching. It has many things i have been wanting to watch for a while and haven’t been able to find. 5/5.Version: 6.1.0

General reviewI love this App, the programs are excellent and the subtitles generally good and quickly added. The service is good value for money. Certainly no issues with quality of the streaming service it’s been very reliable unlike other similar apps. The only issue I’ve had has been renewal of services after the initial year but I’m sure that’s down to user error rather than the app itself. Would highly recommend it especially if like me your looking for something different..Version: 6.22.0

Episodes missingI specially signed up to watch drama I could not get through Netflix. Only to watch and found only 8 or 7 episodes are available when the drama series has actually ended with 16 episodes in total. Why can’t I get the full season of some of the drama series.Version: 6.6.1

Viki appLove the app and easy set-up. Love Viki!. My only complain would be the english subtitles. Some of the episodes don’t have any and unfortunately i am not fluent in any of the local languages!.Version: 22.3.0

MalfunctionThe app used to be so good, I love it! But lately there’s been so many problems. There is Eng subtitles listed 100% but when I watch a drama there’s none. I try to refresh the app and my whole watch history disappears… also the ads run by but there’s no visual image for me to see it or skip it, only audio plays. It used to be such a good app but currently I don’t want to use it out of frustration 🥺.Version: 6.0.3

HiCan u pls get rid of the ads?.Version: 5.0.1

East meets WestI went through a few streaming services as I noticed that subtitles for some of the free ones released either were difficult to watch or translation was not great. Viki releases a lot of excellent dramas so that with Netflix is enough to get the awesome shows available. They seem to be the shows my friends talk about..Version: 23.7.1

It was good until this happenedI was using the app perfectly before there was an error that occurred in the account saying it was offline and I decided to log out and log back in but it said an error occurred as well as the same as resetting my password can you please fix this because this is one of my favourite apps to watch any Asians drama please reply. Update: Thank god I finally get to/ been able to get logged in.Version: 6.10.1

Too many adsThis is such a amazing app! It has so many choices, that even Netflix doesn’t have, and it’s free! And English subs. Sometimes it glitches out (like once in a blue moon) but the main downside is the fact.... IT HAS SOOOOOOOOOOOO MANY ADS!!! I understand it takes a lot of ads to make enough money to have these shows, but THAT many ads is just unacceptable. I’d say on average there is one every 5-10 mins (most shows are an 1hr and a half long.) if there is a way to decrease these without us having to buy Viki pass, pls implement it.Version: 6.17.1

Amazing app!!I love this app. It has my favourite Korean dramas. It’s also very entertaining! Many of the movies available on the app are for free!!! The app works very well and I am really glad they have subtitles available for other languages too!! I just have one recommendation, please add rookie historians (it’s a kdrama) but overall would recommend downloading..Version: 6.0.3

I LOVEE IT BUTTT the ads :(Don’t get me wrong it’s a great streaming server and I’m so glad they made it free but the ads !! I’m currently watching True Beauty and maybe it’s because it’s like new or something idk but I get an extreme amount of ads. I want to say I get one about every 10 minutes or so which is fine because that’s what cable TV usually does but when I leave the app to answer a text message or click on a notification and I open the app to continue watching where I left off I get an ad and a lot of the time it’s a 30+ second ad break and when the ad is finally over the screen goes black and the show doesn’t even play and the whole screen basically freezes :( idk if it is my device but it happens kinda often (even after I’ve rest my phone). When I go to close the app because the screen went black and I reopen it and click on the show it plays ANOTHER AD. I have no idea why this happens but that’s about the only problem I’ve been having. Other than that I loveeee the app and I loveeeee true beauty. I didn’t read the webtoon but after this I might because apparently there is a lot different from the show and the webtoon. But all around I would recommend this app to people I’ll just tell them to buy the no ads version or to do the 7 day free trial because the ads are kinda annoying 🤷‍♀️..Version: 6.22.0

My Go to for Shows I can’t watch on Netflix.This is worth every money spent so I can watch my up to date Korean shows and I love what Viki had to offer, I also love the stars and there profiles and then movies and shows are in and also stars they ave worked alongside with. Great app for streaming your Asian movies or Shows.Version: 22.4.0

A lot of shows is inaccessible😢😢😢I would have given it 5 stars but so far I have paid a year advance for subscription in which there are shows that I can’t even access...why why why??? I am in Australia and an avid fan of Chinese Drama if we have to pay for subscription at least make all shows accessible...otherwise once my subscription finished next year I will not continue subscribing and just watch shows for free even if there are adds on it...!.Version: 5.11.2

Awesome but can we sort out the subtitle issue?Love the app. I like that you can give reviews and edit your own lists. Of course the content is awesome! My only question/suggestion is why publish new dramas without subtitles as this always appears to effect the rating as people give low ratings due to lack of subtitles? Could the distributors not provide this as their dramas are scoring poorly due to a preventable reason? I’d happily pay a bit more too if it meant this could be more professional. Even delay a day to allow paid people to do the job ASAP? Apart from this it’s a 10+ from me.Version: 6.18.1

Great contentI stumbled across Viki during the pandemic and have spent very little time on Netflix since! The diversity and representation across Asian shows keeps me coming back. Viki’s original content is getting better and better too. I like that I can review shows and read reviews as part of the app. My one complaint is that this super popular platform still relies on their viewer base to produce subtitles. It’s not that the subtitles are bad, but you would think given the size of the viewer base and the cost of subscription that they would pay people to sub for them..Version: 22.6.0

All dramasI like it when it remember where you left off . Please bring it back.Version: 5.0.0

Must download!By far my favourite app for Kdramas. If you love Kdramas I couldn’t recommend this app enough ☺️.Version: 5.9.3

Viki reviewI love Viki because having watched so many programmes on here I’ve come to understand the quality of this app. I have hardly ever been disappointed by a single programme I have watched through Viki. All top quality. And I can always seem to find programmes and films to suit what I like, from various different genres. I get such a wide variety that I can’t seem to find elsewhere. Not even on Netflix! In summation I am very glad I signed up with Viki. THANK YOU.Version: 23.4.1

The HeirI love the heir, I can relate to it just the love but not the money involve.. I enjoy watching it, sometimes I cried sometimes I laughed even though I don’t know the language but thanks to the sub title I understand it.. I love love love Lee Minho his a very good actor and very good looking too just like my partner .. he’s so adorable with that kissable lips OMG ❤️❤️❤️... I love the movie and I enjoy watching it. I recommended it highly to whoever is watching it, I cannot get tired of watching it all over and over and over again.. I get excited every time I think about this movie and cannot wait time watch the next episodes hope they will do the season 2 of the heir and please VIKI put all Lee Minho’s movie here like the city hunters the bounty hunters and the rest of his movie please 😘😘😘I love your channel.Version: 6.5.0

Almost perfect.I love Rakuten Viki. There is a nearly overwhelming selection of quality, East Asian dramas and movies at one’s disposal 24 hours a day, and the cost of a subscription is more than worth the investment. However, I have 3 complaints: 1) Increasingly, it seems as though their servers are being overloaded, resulting in loss of connection or lag. 2) Not every Viki application works the same way. The Samsung, FireTV, and Xbox apps all differ in functionality, and one of those does not allow for subtitle adjustments. 3) My worst complaint, though, is that more and more often the volunteer translators are placing vulgar language in where it has no place. I speak a small amount of Korean, but my Korean-American girlfriend is fluent in that language, and we both are finding frequent examples of curse words though the actors and actresses are not, in fact, using epithets. Why do this? These foul-mouthed volunteer translators are turning many wholesome, family-friendly shows into R-rated entertainment. Who wants to hear the F-bomb out of context over and over in a romantic comedy? I can’t fathom the reasoning behind it. Otherwise, I take great enjoyment from the service and I hope it continues to be available for a very long time to come..Version: 6.1.0

DéçuJ’aime beaucoup Viki mais sa m’énerve un peu que nous devions payer pour regarder les prochains épisode....Version: 6.15.1

Worth the watch👍🏻Absolutely enjoy the variety of film genres available.. different but like a breath of fresh air...Version: 22.9.0

One of the best app for Asian dramaI love Asian drama and haven’t found many places in the UK I could watch it until I found this app. Initially I found it as a recommendation, because of the educational learning language benefits. But now I’m totally hooked and got my mum into the dramas too. There’s lots can be watched for free. But the subscription fee isn’t too overpriced, so now I subscribe. The only negative, is I can’t broadcast and it’s not available on Prime or Apple TV, so it can’t be watched on a large screen, (unless it’s a projector)..Version: 22.7.0

Please fix the issueHi! Viki is an amazing app where you can watch a lot of dramas which is the reason why i have it. Last night I was watching dramas and everything was working fine until now. I wanted to watch again, but when i went on Viki it suddenly said i needed to connect to my internet. So I did three times until it logged me out. I was very confused so I tried to log back in via google. It’s not working anymore, it keeps saying that there was a log in error, and that I should try again. It’s not letting me log back into my account & I have forgotten my password. I tried on that too but it doesn’t work. Please fix this error as soon as you guys can! Thank You.Version: 6.10.1

Great content, functionality bugs I can mostly live withContent available is awesome, and the subtitles are great too. The functionality of the app is a bit weird though. On my computer and tv the episode I’m watching sync, and even sync to this app, but anything I’m watching on this app won’t sync to my account on other devices. Also, if I watch a couple of episode in a row the continue watching remains at the episode I started watching from, and that place in the episode. I also doesn’t remove shows from continue watching after you’ve seen all the episodes, this is across all devices though. So there’s some stuff that needs fixing a bit, but I can put up with them so I can watch my favourite shows..Version: 22.3.0

Subtitles QuickerLove K Dramas but. I also would prefer to have a series available complete and not having to wait a week for the next episode. There are some who give amazing reviews and l try to find their comments before l watch any series. Is there some way l could look at a series and then just look at their reviews..Version: 22.3.0

I LOVE THIS APP!!!I love this app so much and I’m not here to diss this app or anything, however, I just wish that there weren’t so many ads without having a subscription and all the episodes had English subtitles at 100%. However one reason I downloaded this app is because there are so many dramas that aren’t on Netflix so I can watch them here..Version: 6.8.2

Best in Asian dramas & moviesReally great app keeping us in touch with the amazing dramas filmed around the world - giving the rest of the world a run for their money and proper competition. App works as a website too, which is great for laptop/pc use, however acess via your login via these can be a nightmare or almost impossible to acess as it almost always never allows you in. I am grateful I still have the reliable app..Version: 22.8.2

Unable to continue to watch episodesLove this app, however, when you close the app mid-way through the show and try to come back to continue watching, it freezes. Kindly fix this..Version: 6.16.0

Brilliant only one thing could make it betterI downloaded the app during the first lockdown in 2020 when I fell in love with watching Kdramas and Cdramas. It took me a while to actually subscribe, but if you can stand watching the adds every 10 mins then you can skip it. The app has a great selection to watch from and top notch subtitles. The only thing that would make this even better would be if you could download episodes to watch offline like the iQIYI streaming app. It’s kind of annoying while travelling not to be able to continue watching the series you are on..Version: 22.3.0

I LOVE this app, but I have one complaintViki is everything you could want and more, especially for those who obsessively watch Asian dramas a lot (like myself). I don’t mind having to pay for a membership every month, it’s not that big of a deal to me. But the one thing I don’t like about this app is that the membership only allows for you to watch certain things and takes away the ads. I feel that if you pay for a membership every month you should also be able to download content for offline viewing. In fact, I think that those who DON’T pay should be able to download and watch tv shows and movie also. Maybe that option has not been made available yet because it has something to do with translation and copyright, but that is something I would advise for those in charge to consider doing. I would gladly pay more for my membership if it included an option to download. I am unable to pay for unlimited data every month, and where I live it is not possible to pay for internet at my home, so I have to wait until I am at a public to catch snippets of a new episode that I’m dying to watch. I’m sure others would agree with me on this. No hate to the creators or those who handle this app, I still love it.Version: 6.16.0

What’s the problem?Tried to watch the next episode on one of my followed shows but it’s says that I need to update. Just did update but still won’t do..how is that?? It doesn’t even have the lock sign ;(.Version: 5.8.2

Viki entertainmentI am so happy to Viki for hosting all these wonderful dramas. It keeps me entertained for many years now. Some days I actually binge watch.❤️❤️✨ I can always count on Viki to keep the platform up to date and good quality pictures. Thank you Viki and your wonderful team of translators..Version: 6.28.1

It's amazingI really enjoy this app. It has many k dramas that I love to watch and I am able to chat to others. Although it requires internet it makes up for the amazing quality. It also has subtitles which is helpful but my one dislike about the app is that it only provides some and not many over seas dramas. I would like some Thai episodes.Version: 5.0.1

DISGUSTING TREATMENT OF FANSVIKI Current Business Model includes lying to its clients! I WAS watching some great performances on a recent drama called Golden Life. However, I’m really disappointed in Viki plusplus or whatever Roku calls it . It is clearly just a way to get us to pay more for what we use to get with the basic fee. DBut now that we are sucked into this lovely drama, they tell us wait 13 days for the next episode, unless we pay a lot more money. Sorry writers and Golden Life crew - after years with Viki , I may cancel my membership if this new business model continues. THIS APP IS currently ratted 4.7 out of 5. I SUGGEST THAT IS BASED ON PAST PRACTICE AND NOT THE new business model recently introduced which as mentioned is a rip-off. I watched through episode 42 and then was notified to see 43 I would have to upgrade or wait 13 days. a few days ago it was going to be six days to see 43 Today I checked and viewers after me now need to upgrade or wait several days to see Episodes 41 and 42. AND episode 43 IS AGAIN WAIT 13 DAYS OR UP GRADE. Just disgusting business practices..Version: 5.1.0

Updating needs fixingI have noticed that if there is a kdrama that I watch several times, it gets flagged. A friend said that she was paying the minimum just to eliminate the ads. Then after awhile she could not watch certain dramas unless she upgraded to the plus. Since I did not want the aggravation, I got the plus right away. I understand that Viki needs to upgrade the app. But I have noticed that several times I would not be able to watch for almost a day even if you keep trying since “something went wrong, please try again” reason. Now I want to rewatch a drama, I can not since the app needs to be updated. So I go to the App Store to update but I could not update it in their version section even when I clicked on all the new. Why is it that it is only on one drama though? Is it because I have rewatched this drama a number of times? Is it because I have the Viki app on IPad and iPhone? I have also noticed that I could not watch on one device if I forgot to exit on the other device. I am getting frustrated with this app so I think I will cancel my subscription to Viki. What else could they sell me?.Version: 6.12.1

Great App! Works Perfectly on iPhone and Apple TVGreat App and HUGE variety of shows… but waiting for translation to new shows is painfully slow, maybe you could pay the translators? Why are some shows not available for specific regions? But, all in all, VIKI IS A GREAT APP! *Please add more Costume Drama/ Xianxia dramas and modern drama from Mainland China (translated into English) PLEASE 🙏🏼😉👍🏼👍🏼.Version: 22.11.1

Not a fan of new updateWhen I first had the app it was amazing, there was loads of old and new dramas that weren’t restricted and available to watch for free but i feel like ever since the update it’s been harder to find more dramas especially Kdramas for free. Furthermore, this update changed the layout of the app, making it harder for watchers to filter and search for dramas. Also this updated has made it harder for viewer to switch episodes and look at comments while watching. So inclusion I believe that this app was so much better and more practical with the original version..Version: 6.23.1

Great App But Just Needs A Few AdjustmentsI have been using viki for about a year now and it is a wonderful app. Compared to the other ones I’ve used such as DramaFever and Kocowa, Viki is by far my favorite. However, I do wish that in addition with the Viki Pass came the option for watching your favorite shows offline. As I am a person who travels a lot, sometimes, my wifi could be a little iffy causing me to not be able to watch my favorite shows. However, if the option for watching them offline was available, this would not be a problem. I do hope that in the near future, this function will be added. The reason as for why I took off a star is because sometimes, I do experience ads even though I have already watched the number of ads needed to continue on with my video. While I do understand that this could be fixed by buying the Viki Pass, I am hesitant to do so because the option for watching the shows offline is not available..Version: 6.2.1

Love VikiOnly issue is English subtitles are not present or intermittently there, I report issues every time more often than not problem is fixed but i noticed the last few days the English subtitles aren’t there and don’t appear. As for series and movies I’ve watched I have really enjoyed all I have watched great stories and acting. Five stars for the shows and acting 3 and 1/2 stars for English subtitles availability..Version: 6.11.0

WowI LOVE this app. I am a huge fan of Korean dramas and this app really satisfied my interest. There is only one problem with this app. Some really good Korean dramas are for some reason not available in my region or are not even available on the app itself! This is very frustrating as I would like to enjoy those dramas on this app, but it’s a shame that I have to watch them some place else. I don’t even mind having adverts as I know that the subtitles of this app are reliable. Overall I would say that I love the app, but the thing with some dramas being unavailable is the only downside..Version: 5.9.6

Good choices of programmesThere are good choices of programmes but some don’t have English subtitles or sometimes the subtitles are delayed..Version: 6.19.0

Good but too many adsI got this app because I wanted to watch I-land (engene here) and I can watch all the episodes and provides hours of entertainment but there are a bunch of unskippable 20+ second long ads. I get that they have to make money because they offer free kdramas but it comes with so many ads sometimes even three 30 second long clips in a row. So maybe add a skip ad button on the longer ads because viewers may get mad and delete the app :).Version: 22.4.0

HelloI really like this app but the only problem is that I used to be able to watch a lot of shows, for example I remember you and now it says that they are no longer available in my region but my sister has Viki and she can watch things that I can’t. I like the old Viki better I could watch anything..Version: 5.0.1

Amazing App!I’ve been using Rakuten Viki for several years now, and it’s always the first place I go when I want to watch really any Asian show/movie. The quality and subtitles are very good and they have several new and old shows (in SEVERAL different genres) so you’ll never get tired of it. A lot of people complain about the timed comments, but I really enjoy them and I think they are a great addition to the app. For anyone who reads this and does not like them or finds them distracting, please just turn them off. There are quite a few times people think the comments are live, but that is not the case (telling people to be quiet won’t do anything). And one thing I was very surprised about, is the subbers (the people who add subtitles) work very fast and I was really impressed by them. But overall, I really like this app as it has everything I could genuinely ask for in a streaming app. Good job developers, and new streamers don’t forget to thank the subbers once the show / movie is over!.Version: 6.10.0

Subscription worth it; sadly can no longer AirPlay on my TVI’ve been a member of Viki for over a year, even convinced a friend to get a subscription. We love our Asian dramas! With our differing tastes (she’s into Chinese period dramas; I enjoy contemporary K&J-dramas), there are shows and movies for every one. After plowing through ads during my trial period, I had become a member to enjoy the Viki library ad-free. I’ve had little to no problems with watching on my mini iPad or Samsung TV… However, I recently encountered AirPlay problems when trying to cast a show to my TV. It would play an episode, then after a few seconds it would automatically play the next one. After reading recent reviews, trying to troubleshoot (1. logged in/out of the Viki app, 2. checked WiFi network, 3. deleted/reinstalled Viki app), and researching in the Help Center, I read the AirPlay side notes that said something like AirPlay can only be used on Apple TV and also they’re no longer supporting certain devices and apps on the Viki app, like Samsung Smart TV and Screen Mirroring. (Search “supported devices” in the Help center of the Viki app.) If you really LOVE Asian shows and movies, download this app and pay for a subscription. If you prefer to watch them on a bigger screen, like your TV, hopefully it’s a supported device/app. Otherwise, you’re out of luck..Version: 22.3.0

Like the appLike the app but would be good if the subtitles have a black background so that it can be seen still regardless of what colours are displayed on the screen..Version: 6.18.0

Subtitling, Accuracy and Delayed Access to DramasIt is unfortunate that since the last quarter of 2020 and this first quarter of 2021 that subtitling for a great of the dramas are either not available or completely out of sync by at least two scenes, it totally spoils the enjoyment of the shows and is particularly annoying when you are paying a yearly subscription so that you can have full access to all dramas - coupled with it can take up to 4 days before 100% subtitling is uploaded!.Version: 6.18.1
