★★★★ Glenn C 5/31/2026 v6.7.1
WORST STREAMING APP PERIOD. Starz is absolutely garbage. it will buffer and then you get from 5 seconds to 30 seconds of video then buffer. this is non stop. if you can deal with that and sit for 25 min to watch 5 min of a movie then sometimes you get lucky and it will start playing normally. i have 0 issues with other apps streaming. what a waist of money. they have a decent movie selection but you waiting on the buffering would make a monk scream. what a waist of money.
★★★★ Rachelle 5/27/2026 v6.7.0

★★★★ kratos0117 5/21/2026 v6.6.2
man this app has nothing good, literally only Spartacus, every thing else is trash you've never heard of, so not worth it and I only paid 12$ for a year subscription
★★★★ Rae Ashby 5/19/2026 v6.7.0
why is the price so high? what am I getting for this high pricrs?
★★★★ C. B. S 5/19/2026 v6.7.1
Another update and the app targets android 16 yet the is not edge to edge. It still has the black gesture area, which should match the tab bar above it, which is green. Please follow the Android guidelines. The app is correct on IOS but not on Android. Please fix the app
★★★★ Sean Travers 5/18/2026 v6.7.1

★★★★ Shirley Taylor 5/9/2026

★★★★ Kristen Higgins (Kris) 5/9/2026 v6.6.2

★★★★ Sally 5/8/2026 v6.6.2
it doesn't play right on my tablet, its screenshots
★★★★ Robert Nay 5/8/2026 v6.6.2
not a lot of good movies and when trying to cancel if you don't hit the 20 times to cancel your subscription you'll get accidentally charged really poor service in that regard . not worth the money at all
★★★★ AKASalsa 5/4/2026 v6.5.0
I do not recommend subscribing to STARZ, they limit the amount of devices you can simply be LOGGED INTO, not how many people are streaming at the same time, no how many are just logged in. Greedy asf company not going to ever subscribe again. That's why they are always offering discounts because no one uses this platform. Don't do it.
★★★★★ Rebecca Stevens 6/22/2026 v6.7.1
I try to find something and I can't find anything at all for example I can't find any Elvis movie or a movie called what about Bob those are just a few and there's a lot more I'm looking for and I have no such luck the movies that are showing now I don't really care for at this time ime
★★★★★ Anthony Ginger 6/14/2026 v6.7.1
every time I open the app I'm logged out, logging in is painful at best, adding a TV via the app always starts with device found and ends in an error.
★★★★★ Michael T 6/13/2026 v6.7.1
The service is too basic, same movies trending from 3 years ago and when I cancel it still does not cancel.
★★★★★ Jason Miklos 5/31/2026 v6.7.1
cannot watch all of the content I pay for on the app on my tv
★★★★★ M G 5/30/2026 v6.7.1
Worst streaming app ever the subtitles doesn't stay you have to turn it on every episode. Doesn't autoplay to the next episode.
★★★★★ Kaitlin Winn 5/30/2026 v6.7.1
Regular issues with my TV logging me out and then a website error preventing me from logging back in. very frustrating. 5 stars for content, but these bugs are very frustrating.
★★★★★ Laura Dorsey 5/19/2026
I got a refund the other day and tried to buy the subscription today. won't even let me sign in. password is correct.
★★★★★ DAWN KAENEL 5/19/2026 v6.7.0
One of the worst layouts ever! On the home page having to scroll down several rows just to find my "continue watching" is annoying but doesn't affect the functionality. The same can't be said for the video playback screen. Specifically the time "slider" being located at the top of the screen and seemingly extra sensitive. Because 9/10 times I need to swipe down on my phone to view a notification, the video jumps to a different time. Which forces me to scroll to figure out where it had been.
★★★★★ stephanie meyers 5/14/2026
renewal notice. so I thought I could include a picture of proof. they told me they were charging my account $69. for renewal on the day they charge my account, keeping me from canceling the subscription. then, in the email, made it sound like I had the option of canceling but had already charged me with no notice.
