Kast - Watch Together

response required

I’m not entirely sure how to work this app? I say it was on the store for $10 and decided to pass because rabbit never charged us. The moment it was free, I downloaded it. I was excited to start watching shows and movies with friends, but this app doesn’t even allow me to do that. I can’t become a “Kaster” on my phone, only a watcher, I can’t make my own room, and I can’t edit my profile without the app crashing. The point of me getting the app was to watch and stream shows/movies on my phone. Since I can’t even do that, I’m not too confident in keeping the app. I think the idea is wonderful, but adding a few new features, tweaking a few bugs and whatnot could really improve what you’ve got going right now.

I was reached out through email to try out Kaster. I gave it a whirl because I really enjoyed rabbit and also miss it. So, I was willing to try something similar to rabbit that’d allow me to watch movies with others again for free. So, I tried out Kaster and the app itself—is very limited on what it proposes to offer. You can’t necessarily do much on the app than what you can do on the website. I’d suggest adding more features in future updates to make the app more enjoyable, but also the possibility of enabling a cast option on the phone. Of course, if possible. It’s design is very simple and pleasing to the eye just needs more work on from bug fixes, tweaks, more options, and just that to create more of an enjoyable experience. It’s a baby in the process of getting on its toes. For now I won’t be keeping the app until there’s further change to make it worth keeping. Since, it’s kinda useless as an app during this time. Until then future rabbit.

The app seems decently put together but there’s no option menu to select anything, also it’s not as good with iPhone X or newer since the screen doesn’t go full screen (might have same issue with older phones). Overall, it’s good for watching things for others, but definitely needs a lot more improvement. Make it possible to make screens take up the entire phone screen, add an options area for those who want to edit their account and other stuff, and generally just make small tweaks that could make it easier to use and more appealing to the eye. I don’t get why the app is so expensive when the old providers had theirs free, but making small improvements will definitely get higher ratings and more people willing to spend the $10 for the app. Thank you

As the app is now, it’s practically useless. I can’t “discover” anything past the main page because there is no search option available. The desktop app seems to work alright, but as far as I’ve seen it’s incompatible with mobile. I’ve tried in vain for the past hour to stream something with my friend, and while the video plays on my desktop my party remains empty on the app. It just says “waiting for Kasters”. I also see no option to send invite links on mobile and my friend hasn’t been able to use the one that I sent from my desktop. This app needs a whole lot of development before I’d bother to use it again. I can see it has potential judging by how the desktop version functions, and I do genuinely look forward to it’s future updates, but until then, I don’t see any point in downloading this app.

The kast app was a great app for people like us who are in long distance who wanted to watch movies together, by far i have been using kast on my pc for months now and no issue. I was happy when i saw that it was available in the appstore for the ios so i immediately bought it and started using it. For the third day from when i downloaded the app, it would always shut me out of the app. I tried updating it thinking it could be because there’s an update but it would still keep on doing that. I dont want to pay for something that doesnt let me use it. Hope they would fix this issue cause i really like Kast.
