Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 97 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many people were dissatisfied with the website and app, citing frequent glitches, constant buffering, and videos restarting unexpectedly. Customers also found the user experience frustrating due to an overwhelming number of ads that interrupt content every few minutes, often being unskippable and repetitive. This makes watching videos, even short ones, a lengthy and unenjoyable process. Some people were dissatisfied with the marketing, noting that the platform's search results are often inaccurate and insulting. However, some customers also mentioned that the platform offers a good variety of content not found elsewhere, and that uploading videos is very fast. A few other people also felt that the site's design is simpler and better than alternatives, and that it doesn't force users to provide personal information for verification.

Absolutely the worst player ever

Absolutely the worst video player on the internet. I feel embarrassed for their advertisers. It freezes to the point of giving up trying to watch despite my very fast download speeds. It seems irrepairable. They should replace their player completely. It's 💯 garbage. I'm amazed it has 1.5 stars. I rate it a zero.

Unusable

Unusable, can't watch 2 minutes of content without being interupted by ads... and its the same two ads over and over. I dont get how you can be everybody defacto last option and still manage to make the user experience worse for the few remaning people using the service... Watching content on Dailymotion legit feels like a punishment its ridiculous. got there to watch a video i couldn't finde elsewhere and i ended up giving up after the third set of ads... after 10 minutes of video minde you... 10/10 would not recommend!!

Worst video server ever created

Worst video server ever created . Was good before they install buffer tecnology. The buffer only freezes the video. Is very annoying. The video starts in beggining and than freezes because the buffer. Dalylimotion ruined my experience. I not recommend this company.

Shame I have to leave one star

Shame I have to leave one star , this has to be the eirst experience ever , I will never use Dailymotion again , the consent ads every few mins and irritating ads at that , buffering , but the best one is after an ad the movie went right back to the start , it took us over 2 hours to watch a film of an hour and twenty mins laughable , if they don’t want you to watch anything don’t have them on call it a Dailymotion please !

It’s not ALL bad

Biggest drawback for me: search engine is really bad. But it can be a good place to find old old TV programs. Same goes for old old movies. Yeah there are ads, but it’s no worse than what you would get on traditional TV.

worst video playback site ever

worst video playback site ever, tried to watch some old films, but adverts every 4 minutes makes it unwatchable, their is more adverts than content then hold sections of the film are missing but worst is the fake popup/scams, one reportable coming from Google (it was not) saying my google account has won a prise, then the fake security warnings, this is a dangerous site to visit!

People are judging it overreactively

The experience and the way I've read it, isn't mostly about how you can trust Dailymotion, simple as that, people are just giving it unnecessarily bad reviews because of the lots of ads in there. I don't know what people would expect from a simple website/app that is FREE, and to be honest, if that's the only place I can watch my favourite series without paying for some stupid subscription, I WILL BE GRATEFUL!

If I could give this -100 stars I…

If I could give this -100 stars I WOULD! The astronomically obnoxious level of ads in here is so unbearable it is longer than the actual video you're watching! And what do you MEAN they have ads you can only skip after 30 SECONDS!!!! This is outright abusive and should be considered a crime against humanity!
