   Just doesn’t work. Vimeo is an extremely expensive hosting site that can’t do the basics. They’re constantly changing the interface to no benefit which causes confusion and bugs. Every time I send a Vimeo link, I hear that it’s not viewable or invalid. Complete failure and waste of money.

2. ★★★★★search fails to find what is needed

   Currently unusable. Every time I try to search for a topic, I get, "! Failed to load. Retry". It doesn't matter what the topic is - Tourism, Europe, travel etc. Tried closing the App and reopening, deleting the App and reloading and even rebooting the device. I'm deleting for good now. I don't have time to waste.

   New search horrible. Vimeo has gone backwards and the Apple TV search function a joke. Can’t search by user anymore . Never seen an organization remove useful functionality.

4. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Stupid censorship. I uploaded art-time-lapse. Then my account got deleted. What a joke.

5. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Vimeo treats you like criminals. Now you have to take mugshots to access that lame app ? This is crazy. I do not understand its point anymore. What kind of service they offer now? Do they work for the future One World Government by giving them all our personal information, face and profiles pictures ? What is going on there ? I can no longer discover cool videos like we ised to. Very very disappointing and disturbing.

6. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Terrible. You can no longer search for hardly anything without getting a “failed to load” message. If you wait and try again after an hour or two you can search for a few moments before it fails to load again. Also, I am in the USA. They claim that search problems are only for people in EU/UK, but that’s not true.

   Don’t download. Used to like this app. Then they fried all their developers… it’s gone down hill since then. Never had an issue with storage before and now it’s saying I’m almost out. Just avoid this app completely.

8. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

   App crashes after 10 min. App always crashes after 10 min of video playback. I hope they look at crash reports.

9. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Vimeo has fallen. Vimeo used to be great to use. We would use it instead of YouTube when YouTube started getting really strict with copyrights on music, and they would just mute the entire video. Now, the app doesn’t hardly work. Most searches end up coming back with no results. When you finally find a certain channel, it says they have no videos, even though it clearly shows they have videos in the search preview of the channel before you click on it. The app is clunky, and it doesn’t seem like they want you to be able to watch videos without a profile or without paying for some kind of paid membership now. Pretty sad.

10. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Support older versions of iOS. Let me download the app!

11. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Not worth it .. I paid I should not haft to pay you again

12. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Buffering????. WHAT IS UP WITH THE BUFFERING?!?!?!? I’m trying to watch a tutorial and naturally it helps to be able to rewind to catch things you missed. But only if the app you’re using doesn’t CRASH/BUFFER ENDLESSLY every time you hit the back 10 seconds button. If this weren’t the only place the content was available I would not be using Vimeo. It’s not my internet btw. YouTube doesn’t have this issue in the slightest.

13. ★★★★★a needed feature is missing

    No live support. I can’t create an account because apparently my phone number is being used by someone else’s account and all the Help options on the app go round in circles. Phone help? Again an automated menu that takes you round and around in circles with no option for live help… very frustrating..

14. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Broken app. Unable to login. There is no help available. I have paid plan and can only login with Safari. Company and app used to be good but are now aweful!

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Bad update. Why can’t I save videos from Watch Later to view offline in this update?

16. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Worst app. I highly recommend not using

17. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    AirPlay buggy, app crashes often. For months if not years the app continues to crash regularly when using AirPlay. Barely playing more than a few minutes before dropping connection and also randomly crashing. No other app is this broken in AirPlay support. Come on Vimeo you have one job as a video player. Playing videos should just work.

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    DooDoo. Can’t search anything, failed to load, failed to load, failed to load, failed to load multiple times a day, couple of days worth of attempts thinking my phone is being weird, nope just a bad app

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Shut it down and give up. This app didn’t work AT ALL! Shut it down! Boooo!

20. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    THEIFS. This app keeps charging me a yearly fee every 4 months and I changed my debit card 3 times. LEAVE ME ALONE VIMEO AND CHECK YOUR EMAIL GET RID OF MY SUBSCRIPTION I DONT USE YOUR PLATFORM

21. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Charged Double, No Refund/Bad Customer Service. I was charged double for two videos I purchased and my issue was never resolved. I emailed Vimeo and responses were slow. In addition, they stopped responding to my email. I never received a refund despite providing evidence that I was charged twice.

22. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    no customer service only take ur money. Hello i spent over 400$ and error no one to talk to and it still wont upload my videos

23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    App crashes. Apps keeps crashing when watching a video

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Holding creators work hostage. New pricing and basic Robbery of creators on the platform was bad enough now they’re holding hostage creator videos if they don’t pay the ransom. What’s the tea? I don’t know because you have taken the work of my favorite lovely creator on your platform and held the tea hostage. I’m leaving the platform for good. How many others have you done this to.

25. ★★★★★trial charges and refunds

    Sneaky. Do not click on free trial unless you absolutely want to purchase an annual subscription. I thought I had it canceled but they make navigation incredibly difficult. It’s also impossible to get real help. They have an ai gate keeper.

26. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    The application is the worst. They never overlook your name or account when they want payment. I’ve tried for years to use this app it starts off seamlessly then the games begins. After four or five years struggling to use this waste of yearly annual subscription never able to resolve uploading my work, or even my library of videos too tired of being robbed from this platform.

27. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Paid for upgrade, never showed in app. Terrible experience. Videos I tried creating kept crashing. Finally received email that my finished video was available to view but it would not open in my app. Could not change music selections.

28. ★★★★★trial charges and refunds

    Got charged during the trial period. I got charged $255 before the end of the trial period. I have been trying to get the charge dismissed for months now and they temporarily credit the money back to my account then charge me again. Be aware!

29. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Big bug. Video freezes when I try to start in the middle on iOS

30. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    It used to be.... …the professional alternative to YouTube. Now their customer service is rude—probably overworked. It trickles down from the top.
