On Android there are dozens of apps to watch series and movies, each one with its advantages and disadvantages. The offer of apps in this area is really wide, and its biggest difference is usually in the catalog of content that they have for their users. In our case, we are going to talk about PV Info. This application has two essential functions; one of them is to give us information on new series and movies, since its catalog is constantly updated and always brings the latest releases. The other is to offer us the viewing links of all these series and movies, which saves us a lot of time when choosing the content we want to see.
As in any application of this type, in PV Info It will ask us as soon as we install and open the application that we grant storage permissions, which are used to load the movies and series on our mobile. The next thing will be to create a user account with Google or Facebook, among other options, so that we can always have our user profile at our fingertips, even when we change devices. When we have gone through these first initial configuration steps of the application, we will be able to take full advantage of all its functions and features.
Movies and series on your Android device without limitations
On the main screen of the application we have the menu of New arrivals. Here we will be able to see the latest releases of the seventh art and, if we scroll to the bottom, we will be able to consult them in the form of a feed. We can also see the new releases of the year in an orderly way or even the specific launches of certain platforms such as Netflix, among other. These are specific sections that we can also access from the navigation panel on the left side. The app offers a very simple interface, something that is always appreciated.
This navigation panel, available from the specific icon in the upper left corner, gives us access to the series and films by its corresponding category, but also depending on the ranking of the most viewed. They are arranged in the New and Updated Movies section, and other selections such as Upcoming Releases or indeed Netflix Productions. It is one of the forms of navigation between contents that it offers us, but also from the main screen we can click on the magnifying glass icon in the upper right corner to make a keyword search depending on the specific series or movie that we are thinking of playing on our mobile devices.
All about your favorite movies and series, and streaming links
If we click on any of these contents, the series or movie tab full screen. Once we choose the content we want to reproduce, we can see here the trailer, at the top as a header, its title in Spanish and the original, the country of production, the age rating, the synopsis, its director, the entire cast, and also find a list of related contents in case you want to see more options on the same theme. That is, we will also be able to see other series and movies that, for one reason or another, have been listed as related to the one we are watching at that precise moment, IMDB style.
And of course, we cannot forget about its most interesting function. We also have access to play links and download. These contents can be seen in streaming, in the quality that is indicated by the application, based on what your community has indicated. On the other hand, they can also be Download to play at any time locally from our mobile devices. In both cases, the same playback quality is maintained because, in reality, the file is exactly the same.
Compatible with Android TV, Chromecast and AirPlay (Apple TV)
To reproduce the contents we need an account in YouPass. The application has an integrated media player, so that we do not have to have a specific video player to open the streaming playback links or those corresponding to the download of video files. But that is not the only one of the benefits of this application, beyond all that we have commented previously, but also its wide support for devices of screen mirroring that will allow us to enjoy the contents on screens larger than that of our smartphone.
If we want, we can enjoy movies and series on a television, whether or not it is a Smart TV, because this application has full support and compatibility for the technologies Android TV, Google Chromecast and also Airplay It is the same one used by Apple TV from the Cupertino company and also some last generation televisions from the main manufacturers in the sector. Just click on the specific icon for each technology, in the upper right corner. And as you can see in the previous screenshots we will have access to the complete list of nearby devices with each of these technologies.
What to do if the download failed appears in PV Info
Not all that glitters is gold, since failures can occur in many applications, and more so in applications of this type. It may happen that, despite being available the option to download movies and series, sometimes it does not work correctly due to a content failure. This leads to problems like not find the download file in storage, inability to transfer to other devices, error opening downloaded movie file, etc.
It is not an alarming aspect, since there is a solution to alleviate this problem. First, in the app settings, we go to "Provider settings" and click on "Download manager". In that floating menu, we select «Other apps». Next, when we proceed to download a movie or series, it is that the servers terminated in .org or .com almost always fail, is irrefutable. But first of all, it is convenient to check if the content can be seen from the app, since if it is not seen, therefore it will not be able to be downloaded.
Next, we are going to use an app called ADMEditor, a download manager that manages the files downloaded from PV Info. Simply when we click on the floppy disk icon, a contextual menu will appear to start the download in a program, choosing ADM Editor. It will try to download the movie or series and store it on the device, improving the capabilities of the native file manager. If finally it cannot be downloaded, we will have to look for another option, but with so many possibilities it will not be a problem.
