hoichoi - Movies & Web Series

I paid $60/year for Hoichoi while living in the U.S., but when I traveled to India, the app locked me out - support literally told me the “best” option was to pay for a second subscription. That’s not just poor customer service, it’s outright exploitative. Platforms like Netflix or Prime let you keep your account and access content globally; Hoichoi’s approach feels predatory in comparison. And even if you do get access, the content library is rapidly declining. If you’re looking for Bengali films with solid storytelling and IMDb ratings above 7, especially anything made in the last 20 years, you’ll be lucky to find even a handful. Extremely disappointing for a platform that claims to be the face of Bengali entertainment.

This streaming service is an example of shameless copy of any other streaming service. You pay significant price similar to other services but the experience is nowhere near. It has devices limit for no reason, the streaming quality is poor and keeps getting stuck. Keeps logging you out every other day and endless bugs. I know being somewhat monopolistic platforms as a regional streaming service, Hoichoi team wouldn’t care about this review, so I am wasting my time. But if they read this review by mistake, my suggestion would be to spend some money on the technology and hire better quality engineers.

The app is good, my only complaint about this app is that unlike other streaming apps it doesn’t have multiple user profile options. Using multiple user option would enable multiple people to watch their movies without any inconvenience
