Flicks.co.nz for Android
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Loved it
Fail. Won't even load. Update: Reinstalled and current version loading. If it was due to being an old version this is odd as it is set to auto update. However happy that it is now working. Overall the app is fine and let's me do what I need it to. Thanks to the devs for getting on to issues quickly.
This last update has resolved the issues with it now , I'm enjoying using this App again
As others have commented it now forces me to turn on high accuracy GPS. Why?? Also once I did that it got stuck trying to load data for a film. Unimpressed. Uninstalled.
Used to be good but update now won't work unless GPS on. Previous version allowed you to skip GPS please reinstate.
You don't have Reading Cinemas in Christchurch to my dismay. Let me know when you get them and I'll try again.
Good to see this app is working again!
I used to like the app - then you updated it. Now the cinema listings defaults to Auckland - to find Nelson cinemas I need to navigate there *every time* because it doesn't remember my choice from last time. Using my device's location still just gives me Auckland cinemas.
Stopped working. Don't know why. Will just use the web
Finally Flick's wealth of film content and data has a happy Android app home ????
Edit 3/12/16: The new update has certainly fixed the crash problems. It's now a sharp, quick loading app, but I've had trouble finding cinemas and loading movie time information. Almost there guys! Original: Please take a look into this. It crashes after pressing any of the buttons on the home page. I'll update my review after the app is fixed.
You guys need to stop being so hard on yourselves....I didn't find any problems with your app before the update, except it would occasionally fail to open....other than that I use this app all the time because it's informative and helpful
Rubbish update. Now rendered useless
Won't find any cinemas in Wellington with detect my location turned on. I'm only 4km from CBD
Finally Flicks wealth of film content and data has a happy Android app home
Luv it
Best app for movies
Much much better!
Note 4 Android 6.0.1. Does what it should, works well with very occasional file not found errors which crash it. Also can't seem to close or exit it, have to kill it instead.
Update Dec 15 KEEPS CRASHING!!!Iphone app has radius and cinemas near you. Sadly not Android. Useful though if you use for where you live but not for travelling
Going to movies to relax? Don't let thus app stress you out. It's pathetic on Android Samsung N5.
Flicks is my favorite website and this app makes me want to cry, I cant even log on to my flicks account on the flicks app! I can't review movies, I can't watch new trailers or do anything that makes flicks unique, but I will keep the app just in case it changes, which I hope it will. Update: Nothing has changed, still sucks, I really wanted to review a movie I just watched...
Thanks for fixing the app so it doesn't crash when selecting a cinema. I like the look of the new makeover you gave it. However it would be nice if you had a 'basic' mode for when we are on 3g/edge cellular network that doesn't have all the graphics that cost a lot to download and make it slow. Because I use this app mostly away from my home wifi.
But not anymore. It's a complete waste of mobile space now.... It always crashes when you want to go and check out movies or cinemas. Weak...
Used to work fine but now doesn't work at all! Just comes up with an error message. Been doing it for months, tried uninstalling then reinstalling but doesn't change.
Despite all the negative reviews this app has never crashed for me. An annoying lacking feature is that the back button from the Home screen does not close the app (the only app I have on my phone of 60+ apps that doesn't do this) it's quite annoying.
I have had to reinstall this app on both my android devices because clicking on "cinemas" brings up an error code. Clearing the app cache won't fix this. It's a great app other than that. Allows you to search by cinema or movie across your region to get showing times. This includes all cinema chains (so you don't need different apps for different cinemas). Provides movie summary, trailer, critic and viewer scores/reviews. EDIT: OK, the reinstall on my tablet didn't work. So the app is useless on this device. 1 star off.
Your app is horrid. It stopped working some time ago, errors about files not being found. Uninstalled and reinstalled and the same thing. Used to be really good, does nothing Aunty Google can't tell me anyway.
App crashes more often than it works. Have tried to be persistent with the app as when it works it is great but after 6 months of constantly receiving the application error ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND it's time to uninstall.
Had this on my i-phone and never an issue. On android it always crashes. Fustrating.
I have a Samsung S6. I like this application, however it crashes when I select upcoming movies.
Wow just tried to use this app again .. still crashing .. do us all a favour and shut it down .. have you no pride ? If there were no stars I'd say it was too many for this turkey .. catastrophic fail
Used to work, latest version crashes when selecting cinema,movie, etc. Says ERR: File NOT Found file:///regions/ This is on a Transformer TF101 running Jellybean
As soon as I click on the cinemas screen I'm greeted with an error message. Have submitted a screenshot and heard nothing, reinstalled and nothing has helped. For me it's completely unusable, used this app all the time. Will rate again when it's functioning.
Hopeless on android which is a shame. So good on apple crap experience and unusable on android
Too many file not found screens for me (samsung note). Great potential in this app. Its organized efficiently and clearly. Please add more details about theatres like ticket prices. Hope you can clean up the snags.
Galaxy s5 - the only way I can close this app is via the task manager. Whilst the app itself is quite good, it's very resource hungry and so it only runs smoothly on flagship phones.
Previous version was quick and easy to use. What, where and when. Now it's a slow, bloated, buggy, data hog. Why didn't you just leave it alone? Update...gone from bad to worse. Crashes constantly on opening.

This app was good and then became unusable. Just tried it again and it now seems to work well. Good work developers.
