PollyStreaming 1.0
Sleek interface with everything at hand
The app doesn't require users to log in or register with an account. It also doesn't provide them with instructions or tips on how to navigate in it. Still, the interface is rather intuitive and users shouldn't feel the need for more guidance in the app. The interface resembles that of YouTube, with video streaming on the top of the screen and sections on the bottom.
Search for videos arranged into categories
All content is arranged into categories. You'll find animes, clips with biographies, cartoons, comedy and many more sections to choose from. Another filter is for upload date and comments, so you can watch the most recent or commented clips from a certain category.
There are no other filters, although the option of sorting files based on duration would have been useful considering that users will be viewing from their mobile phones, meaning they don't have that much time to spear. There are also channels that you can check out, displaying the number of followers and uploads of certain users.
Some shortcomings
The app is pretty simplistic on itself, but it does provide users the option to log into their accounts. However, it's unclear which website they should access in order to register and upload content. The same can be said about the source of videos.
Some come in HD and stream perfectly non-depending on the internet connection, while others are barely watchable and require a lot of time to load. Another shortcoming is the fact that it doesn't have Chromecast support, so you can't stream the image on a TV. Still, you have the option of commenting and sharing videos. Surprisingly, the app doesn't come with ads or in-app purchases so it's well worth a try.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The interface isn't spectacular, developers have clearly focused on functionality rather than aspect, creating a lightweight app that is also very intuitive. |
Function7
No Chromecast support and users can't register within the app. Still, all content is free and uninterrupted by ads. |
Security8
It needs some permissions from your phone, but nothing to pose any privacy risks. |
Battery7
Considering that it's a video streaming app, consumption might be higher than for other applications, so keep an eye on resources as it may drain them fast. |
Price10
Completely free of charge, all videos stream without being interrupted by ads or in-app purchases. |
Compatibility9
It should work just fine on devices running Android version 2.3.3 or later, making it accessible to many users. |
Free and with good quality videos, but developers need to implement Chromecast support.
