MovieBox

MovieBox presents you with videos you can play anytime, all categorised by genre, with synopsis and poster images to help you find what you want - when you want it.

It contains an internal database of videos (films, concerts, 3D videos, documentaries and tv series) hosted on YouTube that are manually verified as working so that, unlike similar apps which simply search YouTube for you on the fly and end up returning masses of broken or mislabeled links, MovieBox will help you cut through the rubbish and save you time and effort.

Find a video you like, touch its title and you'll see a write up telling you more about it as well as a poster image which you can see full size by pressing on it.

Designed with a simple to use, clean, user interface there are no distractions and no rubbish to sort through, making it easy to use - and easier to find a good video, with over 230 currently available and with a big update to add more coming in April.

Why use this app?

If you've tried finding movies, documentaries etc on YouTube you'll know you can spend hours trawling through pages of videos to find the one video you actually wanted, and with many videos deliberately mislabeled by uploaders who just want the extra clicks this can be hard work. Now you can simply browse through a list of videos that have already been checked as working, you can find new films you may not even realise were out there.

All videos are in English and verified as working in the UK on mobile devices. The application has a detailed help file you can access at any time should you need it, and which should answer any questions you may have.

If you have a smart tv, or you have a Google Chromecast hdmi dongle, you can also watch the videos on your tv as the YouTube application used to play the videos supports streaming to smart tv's, games consoles such as PS3, and Chromecast.

This is the ad supported version of MovieBox,

This means there is a small unobtrusive advert at the very bottom of the screen. You will not see any MovieBox adverts in your notification bar or anywhere other than at the bottom of the applications main screen and you will not be made to click any adverts either.

If you find that some videos are not working check for an update to MovieBox, looking at the recent changes section for MovieBox on the Play Store will tell you if there is an update. MovieBox is updated regularly to remove videos that no longer work, and to add new videos.

MovieBox now has an inbuilt ability to open non youtube links, this is for planned future updates, for the immediate future the videos included are all hosted on youtube.

Recent changes:
Added a help button which also displays current number of individual videos available (not including trailers), updated videos with new content and removed non working videos

Previous update:
Rewrote MovieBox so that it will also work on devices with no external storage

Added automatic clean up - when MovieBox updates its poster database it now automatically checks and deletes posters for films that are no longer available
