iOS online movie theater

Our client is Janson Media Group, a New York-based renowned independent media company that partners with major digital video platforms such as Amazon, YouTube, Twitch, Hulu, and more.

Netflix-like platform

They approached us to develop a Netflix-like platform with a large catalog of auteur films. Janson Media empowers independent filmmakers by placing their movies on the platform, ensuring audience engagement, and revenue generation through commissions. Vodeo seamlessly integrates standard online movie theater features that work so well that the difference with Netflix is imperceptible. Users can watch movies and shows on both mobile devices and TVs, streaming via AirPlay and ChromeCast.
Comprehensive admin panel
Furthermore, we've developed a comprehensive admin panel for streamlined content management. Admins can easily add new movies along with essential details, subtitles, and ratings. They can also create curated collections featuring new releases, recommended content, and frequently viewed titles. There are special sections for each category in the user app.Unlike other popular online movie theaters, Vodeo has no subscriptions. Users pay only for the content they want to watch. We have added an internal currency for which they can rent a movie or series episode.
“Great work! Attentive to details and excellent communication. Highly recommended.”

iOS app

Content search by type and genre

Choose either a movie or a show and one of 24 genres. All the movie info on one page: rating, cast, trailer—to make sure you’ll like it.
Adjusting content viewing to your liking
Change volume, pause and start all over again, go to the full-screen mode, or rewind the film. Turn subtitles on and off.

Trending, popular, and featured content

Decide what you want to watch right off the bat! “Trending” movies and shows are the most purchased over the last month. “Popular” offers the most-watched content of all time. “Featured” is the admins’ choice.
Video quality adapts to your connection speed
You don’t have to set the quality on your own. The app switches between 480, 720, and 1080p. The better your connection—the higher quality.

In-app purchase to convert money into tickets

Convert real money into in-app tickets. Spend tickets to rent a movie.
Purchase history
If you forget what films you’ve rented, view your purchase history! From there, check when and what you’ve bought and how much it cost.

Admin panel

Faster movies uploading by dividing them into parts

Uploading a big film in one go takes longer than simultaneous uploading of several smaller fragments. Thus, we use the Amazon S3 server. After sending a few video parts there, the server combines it on its own. It is also cheaper that way!
Edit movie information
Add the title, cast, release year, rating, production country. Add a movie poster and subtitles as a VTT file.

Mark movies or shows as featured

Make any content featured from the admin panel. Featured content appears in a special section on the user’s screen.
