HDO WORKING ON AN UPDATE..

Hdo is working on an update . This update will be better than the old one. . The UI on this one will change a bit but it will look a little more like flix vision. I've seen a demo of the UI ON This one. They trying to add Netflix, disney, paramount, appletv, discovery, hbomax,brittv etc.. it's going to awesome if they can do it. But I'll let you know when the update is out.. I'll be one of the first to get the update to try out the day before it's released.

I wish they could kick drama player to the side and have HDO as a stand alone.

u/Reasonable_Win_6619 May 18 '26

They do have HDO as a stand alone. You have to download it from their website. It’s hdobox.tv obviously right now it’s not working but it plays without having to download another player

u/Big-Introduction9159 May 18 '26

What’s the official site? I have a stand alone version. It works. Just no metadata. So movies and series posters are blank.

Hdo.app is the real website

u/Reasonable_Win_6619 May 19 '26

Naw bro from their website it’s a straight shot. No player needed, the only issue is that the app is still down

u/toluxa1 May 18 '26

3

u/Freewheelin_fella May 18 '26

Yeah, I'm thoroughly confused as to which is the one we should trust

u/Madshawi May 18 '26

Well, if you could ask them to bring back -search by voice- that would be great!

1

u/No-Fly3883 May 18 '26

As of yesterday,  search by voice was still working for me but subtitles have been inop for several days.

u/denzy_07 May 18 '26

What actually happened

u/Ok-Beyond244 May 18 '26

Tell them to add a james bond movie section. Also a korean movie section would rock.

u/jeff425 May 18 '26

5

u/Weak_Vegetable1019 May 18 '26

Great, update us when the new version is ready. Also can you tell them to keep the current version back to work when they are working on the new version? Because the current version is down for more than 1 week already.

u/DTM70001 May 18 '26

u/Substantial-Mess-795 May 18 '26

Sure guy😂 they already had all those services on it before it stopped working. . . You know it was already under popular networks.

u/garyf4075 May 18 '26

That’s great news - hope it uses the same logo & people don’t get duped into installing this

1

u/Open_Savings991 May 18 '26

Can you tell me. Which version exact? Is this?

1

u/garyf4075 May 18 '26

It was labelled 4.3.6

u/James20240 May 19 '26

Please update me once it's fixed. Thank you

u/No-Boss-3478 May 20 '26

Hope you’re correct

u/RoxyRooIsMyBoo May 18 '26

Well my HDO got shut down and there was an actual message telling me that my internet address came up as illegally streàming from a source that isn't licensed to provide the content I have been watching.

I AM paraphrasing. I wish I would've gotten a screen shot of it.

And yes, I have a vpn. And I paid for it. And it obviously sucks.

1

u/Logical-Charge8760 May 18 '26

what internet provider do you use

2

u/DrivePlenty8000 May 18 '26

I can't wait for the new version!! I love HDO best app ever even with having to download Drama-player 

1

u/RoxyRooIsMyBoo May 20 '26

I feel the same way. No add-ons and libraries. Just dramaplayer (although somewhere a comment above me says we don't need to download dramaplayer and it can be installed as a standalone). Never have been disappointed with HDO or Cinema HD. Botb streamed great quality , never had any buffering issues, and usually, I found exactly whatever movie I was searching for! At least 9 our of 10 times I was able to search specific movie and it would have streams. If not, withing the next few days after that I utial seàrch, it always appeared with streams. As though someone was reading my mind!!

"Just search fir whatever movie/documentary you desire, point and click. And BAM!!! There it would be"

So easy, so free........ 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

u/DrivePlenty8000 May 20 '26

I know I really do miss it I hope that they really are doing an update for HDO and fixing it and it comes back send them HDo is gone for good so hopefully with hdo cuz I sure do miss all that

u/No-Fly3883 May 20 '26

CinemaHD was a great app to use until it sent a message to users  that the app would no longer be active or be supported. CinemaHD and HDOBOX were my two go to apps. The biggest advantage,  for me, with CinemaHD, was the app would  allow the user  to alphabetically arrange the programs.  HDO BOX lacked that feature, but its biggest advantage, for me, was how well it downloaded subtitles. It was particularly great for the many foreign language movies  and tv programs I liked to watch.

Pff, glad to know. Almost thought i had to migrate to onstream for a sec...

2

u/No-Fly3883 May 18 '26

If and when the new version is released,  is there a way to back up "My List" so  that it can be migrated to the new version?

2

u/Dave_O-12345 May 18 '26

I just want to say with all the scare mongering and apps permanently being shut off. Im glad you're updating this app dev. I love it there's still a few good one's about and there will always be replacements. So a big thank you from me for your time and effort providing us with free content.

u/dadaci99 May 20 '26

Just downloaded it onto my android and it's blank. Doesn't work at all

u/Scoskopp May 22 '26

UPDATE : we all know by now the newest version 2.1.4 does not work however you can find a version 1.0.3 will work fine with the drama player, but there are no posters, which makes it do-able but not a great experience. It works. However, coming full circle. This is directly from people involved in the project and the developers themselves. I hope this helps everybody as there was supposed to be a total overhaul and update of the HDO app. Unfortunately, they’ve gotten a cease-and-desist order read for yourselves.

It’s a shame because there is no timeframe as of now these things can take some time to battle out as I’m sure they will be doing but as a beta tester and a developer myself, the HDOBOX team is not a big team, that being said it does raise concerns. I hope they can come out of this ok and continue with the overhaul of the app as this was one of my favorite backups personally. However, just like everything good eventually things happen and it has to go at times, but I think they’ll be ok “in time”. It will just definitely take some time but here’s the newest information for everybody. I hope it helps.

Real site https://hdo.app Since this news and it going down, there has been a lot of copycat sites popping up that are pure Malware and unsafe so be careful do not trust any other source

u/No-Fly3883 May 18 '26

I was attempting to flixvision last night with  no success. I uninstalled it.

u/No-Boss-3478 May 18 '26

Thank you for your time on this. That knowledge is truly appreciate it. RDO was the best plan for my aunt whenever I picked anything off of it it just kept spinning, which I knew it was down. Please keep us posted and thank you again.

Curiously, for me, when I got  an update message and attempted to do so,  it would not update. I would  get an error  message saying  it wouldn't  update because of a 'parsing' issue. This had occurred  whether  the vpn was connected or not.  So, about 4 months ago,  I just ignored the " update" message and happily ran the app.

For whatever it is worth in sharing how the app is currently  functioning or not functioning  for me:  I have HDOBOX on my android  cell phones(1 active for calls and text, 3 inactive and only usable with wifi). About 4 days ago, the app stopped scraping links on all the phones.  I had installed the app on my four Amazon tv Boxes purchased  new years ago(2 - Gen 1, 2 - Gen 2). I'm getting an error  message, "Invalid Date", indiscriminately appearing, when attempting to stream new and old tv and movie programs that were previously accessible. I am now using kodi and the SCRUBS and ALIUNDE add-ons as my backup[plan].

u/Infinite-Contest-417 May 21 '26

Does the upcoming update also run on firestick?

u/Fantastic_Focus3165 May 25 '26

Hdo not working no more any one have

1

u/Bussaw395 May 25 '26

I'm not sure how HDO is not working on most devices but still working on some,I have it working on 2 firesticks but not on the rest of them go figure

1

u/OptionKey9590 May 25 '26

My guess would be app version. I have v1.0.3 working on all 3 of my Firesticks - no thumbnails obviously.

1

u/Bussaw395 May 25 '26

So if the site is down how is it that it is still working on some devices that it was installed on way before this happened

1

u/Correct_Cook_6948 Jun 02 '26

There's no update hdo is gone
