Good content but horrible app!

Good content and fair cost for the content. However, the iOS app is very buggy and it is almost impossible to stream any content using chromecast. Here are some bugs if any of the developers are even reading this: - when I cast a movie, it buffer for a minute for 1-2 second stream. It’s loading just fine on the phone but casting through chromecast is causing massive delays. No issue with the networks bandwidth (100 mbps). Problem with the app. - the content management in this app is very poorly designed. For example: if I choose “telugu”, it shows me the long list of things that hotstar has! I cannot filter for movies/genre/year, etc. every other streaming app already has this feature. If they are charging me $50, what is the point of I can’t even understand what can I watch?

Not get access

I have purchased VIP subscription but till December I can’t watching programs and I have seen counting msg that unknown error showing and my subscription for VIP is also showing. I think they wanted more money because getting msg for upgrade membership and not giving answers properly, they don’t have their customer care no also, even when Mail to support C.C no they ask for screen shorts of msg & problem. My problem has not been solved till time of new subscription. Very bed experience.

Hot star shows ad even if you pay

I am paying for the subscription. And if I am paying for apps like hot star , Netflix or YouTube premium , I do not expect to see boring ads during watching any show. I really hate hot star for showing me unnecessary ads during any interesting show or movie. It is super irritating.

AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
MobileCoreServices
Use uniform type identifier (UTI) information to create and manipulate data that can be exchanged between your app and other apps and services using MobileCoreServices.
Quartz Core Framework

UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
