I habe mixed feelings about it. On one hand I love some of the content you find on their platform on the other hand I can not watch for long as I have a limited amount of GB per month and the videos on curiosity stream are (almost) not compressed (at all). In comparison: I could eitcher watch: >20h of 1080p YouTube videos or <1h of normal Curiosity Stream videos... No matter how I slice it, this is messed up and needs fixing.

I already regret my subscription. The app has many bugs as previous reviews are already stating. Furthermore the search function is particularly bad. The channels I follow on YouTube keep advertising additional content on curiosity stream but most of the time I can't even find their channel there so keep going back to YT. Good content is of no use if you can't access or find it.

I subscribed bec of the promo and now my card was automatically charged for renewal! the full premium subscription is not even worth it. Free video apps are even better with the documentaries. Not recommended
