I had to wait a few seconds for my show to load, which gave me time to wonder why I wasn’t watching simply Brooklyn Nine-Nine on Hulu instead. PlayOn displays them like folders on your computer’s hard drive. On other streaming sites, the shows are displayed in a more seamless way. But it looks very much like a transfer rather than something organic. I did find that the PlayOn app did a decent job of transferring my streaming profiles over from other sites. Even going from Netflix to Hulu on my laptop isn’t exactly complicated. Switching between channels is a smooth process, but then again, it’s also a smooth process on my Roku TV. There are some free episodes offered (see the Content section for more), but this mostly a pay-to-play (on) service. HBO Go is also listed, but like pretty much every other channel, you must have an existing HBO GO account before you can start queuing up Game of Thrones. If you’re a cable subscriber, you’ll probably find your cable company listed under channels as well. You can connect to the big players like Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon Prime.
#Playonmac not doing anything download
Once the download is complete, you can go to the channels tab and start linking your other streaming accounts to PlayOn’s media player. The desktop download is a pretty simple process, although there are constant reminders of what you’re missing out by not upgrading to the paid version.
The cloud app is exclusively for smartphones. I have a Windows laptop, and I found it easy to get to the download page on PlayOn’s website. The desktop app only works with Windows computers, so Mac users are out of luck in this case. PlayOn is available in two basic forms: PlayOn Desktop and PlayOn Cloud.
