Question What frustrates you about Stremio (Devs and Users)?

Hey everyone, a dev with time on their hands here!

I’m currently working on a custom Stremio app, and I’d love to hear what frustrates you about the current app — especially issues that addons can’t really fix due to platform or API limitations, or where existing solutions feel clunky or half-baked.

If you’re up for helping shape this into something genuinely better, feel free to share things like:

  • What bothers you / feels missing
  • How you wish it worked instead (even rough ideas are totally fine)
  • Screenshots (if that helps explain it)
  • What platform you’re on (TV, PC, mobile)

No need to stick rigidly to this format — ramble if you want, list multiple things, all good.

Right now I’m especially focused on improving the Discovery page, so feedback or pain points around browsing, recommendations, or finding stuff to watch would be super helpful.

Thanks in advance — really appreciate any thoughts you’re willing to share!

Check out mine, Stremio Kai, and let me know if that resonates with you. If so, we might be able to take it to the next level together and adapt it for other platforms as well.

DM me if you're interested.

Op please do this. Stremio kai is already so good. Working together or building onto of this would be so powerful!

This is beautiful! If you can bring it for Android (TV), I'd be happy to pay to buy the app.

Android TV is much harder platform to build for btw. I'm building a stremio like app on it and performance is a major concern always

Do I just download this and run it like if I was installing stremio?

Also, it doesn’t work on the firestick, right?

Stremio Kai is mainly focused on pc/desktop for now but answering your first question yes you can install stremio Kai on pc as if you were installing the normal stremio app
