Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 100 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many users found the website and app to be plagued with an excessive number of advertisements, making content nearly impossible to watch. These ads were often long, repetitive, and frequently interrupted videos, sometimes even restarting them or playing over the content. Customers also reported significant issues with buffering, freezing, and glitches, which further hindered their ability to view videos continuously. The search functionality was often criticized for being ineffective, and some users experienced problems with login information and account security. However, some people mentioned that the platform offers a good variety of content not found elsewhere, and that using an ad blocker significantly improves the experience. Additionally, a few reviewers appreciated the fast video encoding and the less restrictive sign-up process compared to other platforms.

SELFISH STINGY GREEDY LOW LIFE CROOKS

SELFISH STINGY GREEDY LOW LIFE CROOKS

Their search results are awful and very insulting and never match. They are very selfish about sharing income. They never share income and have impossible conditions about paying anybody.

It made my laptop ventilate so bad I had to stop watching. Also there are 4 adverts every 10 minutes and if you are trying to watch a series, they intentionally post the video with wrong episode name so you click on all of them until you find the rest of the episodes.

Unfortunately sucks

It's pretty sad, cause this site has stuff that makes it easy to watch older tv series, movies etc, and I'm aware they need to make money but the sheer amount of ads is ridiculous and completely tanks the experience.

Start a video, not even a minute in there's 3 ads one after the other. Sometimes, skipping an ad puts you straight into another ad. This repeats throughout the whole video. Often the page will suddenly break, require a refresh, and that puts you right to the start of the video and then proceeds to bombard you with ads again. Fast forward to the timestamp you were at previously, 3 more ads. During my time watching, there was also an ad for dog chews or something below the video itself that kept playing its audio over the video, despite being muted. It would go away for 10 seconds, and then appear and play over the video audio again! Sometimes 3 times in a row! This didn't just happen with the dog advert, but with multiple.

It's not even different ads each time, they show you the same ad three times in a row. I started hating Adobe out of spite by the third wave of 3 adobe ads in a row in one video.

Shame, because I remember using the website years ago and it was nothing like this, it was quite enjoyable to use back then.

Costant lagging to many ads just to use a free website i understand the company has to make money off the ads but blooming hell, the amount of ads you get for watching one video on daily motion is the same amount off ads you get from a whole series on netflix, embarrassing, ruins your experience watching stuff, its puts you off tryna use the site, I hope a new site is made from somewhere you can watch stuff in peace never use again waste of time. Funny it ask date of experience, only if they was an option all the time would 100% clicked it the same amoumt of times you get adds in 1 video, to be honest daily motion consumers shpuld be getting paid to even use they site with the amount of ads you get

Constantly lagging

Constantly lagging, as if it's intentional. As you get closer to the end of the drama, the reloads happen more often, forcing you to watch the ads over and over again. I tested this theory, with two different devices and Internet connections. It happened on both.

So many adds

So many Ads. For a movie that was 2h and 20min long. The ads took up 1h and 5min of it. Also every time I was getting yo the end it would say "uh oh something went wrong. Reload" then when ypu reload it, it forces you to watch 2 ads and puts you at the start. Oh and longest ad was 1min 45sec.

So almost for every 2-4min of movie watched, you get 2 ads.

there was too many ads!!!! i couldnt sit through a video without just turning it off because of ads. i thought this would be a worthy youtube competitor, but i thought wrong. if you say you have watched more than 30 minutes of content on this app, you would be lying.

Ads. Ads Everywhere.

Ads. Ads Everywhere. The site is unusable because of how ad infested it is. We need youtube competitors but this is not it. DailyMotion has utterly failed us all.
