GameFly 3.59
GameFly is one of the most popular app for that, it comes with two main sections, games and movies. It's a great place to rent the latest Blu-ray and DVD movies or pre-order the latest games.
Sleek interface with plenty of features at hand
The app lacks a tutorial or instructions to show new users how to access all its features. It opens directly with the games section, featuring trending releases, the most popular and coming soon games.
The app requires online registration, but in order to do so you must select a plan and pay either 10$ for two months or 20$ for 2 months but you'll get free access to two games.
There's also a free 30 day trial with access to one game, but you'll have to pay 15.95$ per month after. These plans are only available to US residents, as you'll have to fill in your shipping and billing address.
Get the latest news from the gaming world
You can stay informed on the latest releases with GameFly. The app informs you of upcoming releases, provides you with screenshots and videos, details and user ratings for all games featured in the app. You can filter items by console, most popular and genre.
The side menu provides you with access to all sort of sections inside the app, including news from the gaming world. The section is filled with all the latest information on releases and links to get further information. You can also share articles on social networks.
Rent movies
The app lets you buy the latest games and rent out Blu-ray and DVD movies. All films are arranged into categories and come with user reviews, although there's no option of watching a trailer which is quite inconvenient. In addition, it doesn't display the movie's rating on IMDB or Rotten Tomato.
But it does have user reviews from inside the app. GameFly has a community of users who discuss all the latest releases directly from inside the app, you can join only if you have subscribed to a plan. The app also lets you enforce parental controls as to keep your children from playing games that aren't appropriate for their age.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
The interface is really easy-to-use, with a side menu for accessing sections and another for filtering results. |
Function8
It's a nice app but it really needs to post trailers for games and especially for movies, together with ratings from IMDB. |
Security8
You will be providing a lot of personal information inside the app, but GameFly shouldn't pose any privacy issues. |
Battery7
Consumption is absolutely normal, you shouldn't worry about the app draining your battery unless you constantly watch gameplay videos. |
Price9
It needs users to subscribe to a plan but it does come with a 30 day free trial. |
Compatibility7
It should work on devices running Android version 3.2 or later, making it inaccessible to some users. |
It's a really nice app filled with movies and games that you can rent, but it really needs some trailers.
