I’ve used Stremio, Vidi and Fusion. All seem incomplete and lacking functionality. I finally purchased Omni and found it orders of magnitude better than the others. Omni’s UI is very customizable. It has an automatic selection of videos. The iOS version supports Picture in Picture. The synch between devices is seamless. Omni supports “snapshots” of configurations that enable backup and sharing of overall configuration. The list goes on. Best of all, add-on configuration is supported within the app so you don’t have to deal with a web browser passing a configuration to the right app.
I don’t often leave reviews, but this app is absolutely fantastic. Sure, it could use a tiny bit of polish and I might encounter an odd bug every now and then, but overall this app is the best way to access my media with addons. I can’t believe how great it is. I initially thought $10 was a bit steep, but honestly I’m impressed by how well the app works and it is well worth the price to me.
The app design is beautiful, but it’s dysfunctional. To the point of not being able to use it on Apple TV consistently. Here are some of the issues I’ve encountered: - Half the time streams can’t be fetched until the system is rebooted. - Plugins duplicate themselves multiple times even after deleted. - In the middle of an episode a modal will popup suggesting we play the next one (haven’t narrowed this down, but it might be caused by pausing and then resuming much later) - Player becomes unresponsive and you have to open + close it multiple times to access the settings and subtitles - Main menu focus issues. I’ll press back on the Apple TV remote and it pops up the menu (Remote, Home, Search, etc) but the controller isn’t focused on it but instead on the thumbnails in the background. Pressing back again takes you out of the app. Enraging. I’m hopeful for the future of the app, but in its current state it’s difficult to recommend. It’s SO close to being perfect for me, but I find myself more frustrated by it than not. I’ll be keeping an eye on updates and will update my review if/when it’s appropriate.
