Had Philo since 2019 and every year seems to get worse. Most recently they took movies and shows and put them behind a pay wall. Used to watch the show Creepshow for instance, now I gotta pay an additional fee to get a "plus" version to watch what I used to have, on top of this horrible all black interface. No thanks. Only reason I'm keeping it is from the grandfathered pricing. Moving close to the end for me.

Apologies for the frustration - we don't control what networks the shows air on, however, you would only need to upgrade to access shows airing on AMC+, which is included in our core package for $28/mo.

The new update is decent but some features were removed . For example the horizontal and vertical option and the zoom in and out for video was removed . Also the option to see the live guide while watching a live stream was also removed . Also a couple more but this three are a must , especially when watching on a mobile device . Please bring at least this features back . Been enjoying this service for years for an update to ruin the friendly user experience .

This is one of the most predatory apps for streaming I've ever encountered, it has the gall to charge 28 dollars for the basic subscription, even more for the "premium" subscription. Putting cost aside, its flooded with ads, which I wouldn't expect since its so ridiculous expensive. This is essentially just cable tv.

Hey Jeremy, Philo is a low-cost cable alternative! We have 70+ channels and AMC+ for $28/mo with optional add-ons. We also offer 80+ free channels that you can enjoy without a subscription (philo.com/free-channels). Philo has the same commercials as cable at a fraction of the cost, and you can fast-forward through them with your Unlimited DVR.
