Comments on DocPlay - Watch Documentaries for Android

★★★★☆ Hev C · Aug 31, 2024

If I pause an episode with less than 10 mins remaining, the app considers the episode as complete and skips to the next one. Very frustrating Otherwise it's overall a pretty good app

★★★★★ Pj Fal · Dec 21, 2022

Love it some documentaries I've never seen. Awesome viewing.

★★★★☆ Mel Nichols · Mar 21, 2020

Great app, downloaded on my Samsung tv, works great. This has better docos than Netflix, Stan and Amazon Prime, love it!

★★★★☆ Mark Woolmington · Jun 12, 2020

Seen I don't know how to unsubscribe when I want to, as you say. I couldn't be bothered trying to get in contact with you and the hassle it would to unsubscribe. I've had trouble before with letting people take money out of my account every month. But it looks like a great app. Cheers.

Its free its free!!!!...wat aload of crap!! 5 docos are free, everything else is premium. Stipulate what the requirements are before you lie to prospective users.

★☆☆☆☆ Lewball The Explorer · May 17, 2022

No possible way to unsubscribe from the platform, you have to email them and wait. Unsubscribing should be made easy, when its difficult, that's a red flag for me

★☆☆☆☆ Phil Webster · Apr 11, 2025

Constant buffering. Awful experience as a result. Content might be good but the experience was so awful I could not tell you. A 2 hr doco took me almost 3.5hrs to watch...so, so poor

★★☆☆☆ Rod · Mar 26, 2024

App crashes and fixes itself randomly over long periods at a time. Effectively, I cannot watch doc play off-line; it can take 20, 30 or more minutes to download one film (tried it multiple times in multiple tablets and phones, downloading performance remains poor in all of them). Now they are increasing their fee for next term. Not sure it will be worth it, and I love documentaries.
