As we all know, we live in the age of online video streaming when it comes to watching movies and watching TV shows. But most great apps and services come for a price. Netflix, Crackle, Hulu and almost all the other good ones that we hear about are paid services. There also are unpaid, as in free, applications. But the problem with them is not a lot of them offer high-quality videos, so they do not really keep up with our expectations. But do not fret, SnagFilms is one such app that is not just free but provides great high-quality content for us to watch in our free time.

SnagFilms:

SnagFilms offer free movies for the users to watch and all of them full-length. Apart from movies they also have Tv series that you just can not get enough of. In addition to these, they also have documentaries and foreign movies for the more serious ones. Yes, they do.

The only glitch, however, is that you can not watch the videos with subtitles that you got. Hulu and Crackle allow that. But in the case of foreign films, there are many movies that come with embedded subtitles. So you need not worry about not understanding that French or Korean movie. But keep in mind, most of the movies that they offer us are Independent films.

Video Content on SnagFilms:

As I have stated before, they have this brilliant collection of more than 5000 movies and most of them are independent films. They have movies like “Free Zone”, “El Camino”, ” The Slaughterhouse Rule”, “Visioneers” and more.

They also have a brilliant collection foreign movies. Ranging from Spanish to Hindi to French to Russian. And these foreign movies come along with embedded subtitles so that you do not have any problem breaking the language barrier.

As I have given a hint before, they have a huge number of documentaries to browse. Most of these documentaries are from National Geographic, PBS and the ones submitted by the filmmakers to the website.

And it goes without saying that they have TV shows. They have quite a colorful selection of TV shows. But unlike the genre-based categories in the movies section, TV shows are organized in a more fun way. They have tags like ‘Guilty Pleasures’, ‘World History’, ‘Family and Kids’ to funk it up for you. The developers of the app have original content too. Most of the original content are comedies that will never fail to crack you up with a giggle or two.

They also provide cartoons and other videos that are perfect for the kids. And their selection of movies also have the tags Kids and Family so that you know which one you can watch along with your kids.

Organized Gallery:

Yes, this is one of the most required and essential traits that we look for when we are looking for an online movie streaming app. They have over 5000 movies, ranging from old to latest ones.

They have two sections; there is one section where you get personalized recommendations of movies that you may watch. And the other is their brilliantly categorized gallery. They have the movies separated by Genres, how sweet of them, isn’t it? But wait till you hear that there are subcategories even under one genre as well. So basically you have family, politics, romance, foreign subcategories under the Comedy genre. Doesn’t it make you believe that this world is a happy place? Well, it does to me.

The recommendation page starts working once you have watched at least one film on the app. The interactive AI suggests movies based on the movie that you have watched.

Player Features:

The app can be downloaded on your Android or iOS. They are even available for Kindle Fire and Blackberry Tablets now. And it does not mean that you have to watch the videos that you stream from SnagFilms can only be viewed on those tablets and smart devices that you have. You can always watch the videos on smart TVs, Google TV or Android TV. All you need to get is Google Cast or any app that helps you cast the videos from your mobile device to a bigger screen.
