Ombi App Comments & Reviews
Ombi Positive Reviews
Great app, great serviceI considered buying this app a while ago but was put off by the fact that the initial price didn’t include all of the features. I randomly checked again today, and was thrilled to see that the developer has done away with the extra in-app purchase requirement. Instant buy, Ombi is a wonderful and extremely useful application, especially for those sharing a library with friends. The new interface is even better than the old one, which was already very good! Keep up the great work!.Version: 2.2.12
So far so goodThis allows myself and others remote access to my entertainment server. Especially makes it easy for the non-tech savvy. All around ease of use that this app provides is well worth it. My girlfriend can request stuff, without bugging me now. It will automatically be available for her on plex. Awesomeness.Version: 2.2.12
Great AppThank you for building this app, it really is a better experience than the mobile webpage. The one feature that I miss in the current app is the ability to search for music. Other than that it is already great!.Version: 2.14.0
Amazing!!!Just makes things so simple, when at home or on the road I can always respond to requests from my family can’t say enough great things. Thank you.Version: 2.22.1
It’s come a long wayThe newest version of the app is great! I love not having to login to the desktop client every time I want to add a movie and the UI is pretty awesome. The only thing I would suggest is just to allow settings to be changed in the app, but I know that’s on the way already..Version: 2.2.12
WorksRecent iOS updates require you to allow local traffic under settings > apps > Ombi. Otherwise you’ll need to purchase a domain..Version: 2.22.1
New updatesI love the updates! You have deff made it less confusing and more mobile/ user friendly.Version: 2.2.21
Best App Ever!I love the last update that now lets you easily add just the first or latest season! Thank you for the quality update! Much appreciated!.Version: 2.15.0
Does what it says on the tinI have absolutely no complaints. If you run an Ombi server, or have access to one, this is the app for you..Version: 2.7.0
Great appThis app is a great addition to my set of tools to manage media. Only thing it’s missing seems to be the music requesting like we can do on the web version if lidarr is setup.Version: 2.14.0
Significant ImprovementWow, this new interface and usability now is excellent! Seriously good job with the latest improvements!.Version: 2.2.12
SuggestionWould be perfect if movies and shoes had direct links to IMDb..Version: 2.7.0

This is so coolIf you have a Plex library you share with your family and want to take it to the next level. This is the app for you. Integrates well with sonarr and radarr. App has a few small issues but the added value to your server is worth the minor hiccups. Thank you for this amazing software! I see a lot of gripes how this is just the web interface in app form... so are most apps. This will give you push notifications directly to your phone when a request is made. Sure you have to pay 5$ but if you paid 100$ for Plex pass, spend the money on this cheapskate!.Version: 1.7
GREAT app!!This is the perfect app for my home theater setup. It helps me keep track of what we all want, has a great interface, and completely integrates with my media server. I read some reviews about some bugs when the app was new, but honestly this is the best app I’ve used in a long time. I really hope it makes it to the Apple TV App Store too!!.Version: 1.7
Good start, but need work.First off, I can’t believe all the people complaining about having to pay for this app. I mean I get that having $0.99 for the app then another $3.99 to approve requests is off putting to some. Personally I am happy to pay $5 to support the dev—he is developing Ombi and the apps for it alone AFAIK and it is wonderful. I do think free for users and $5 for admins is a better pricing structure, but what do I know. Yeah the app is a little clunky—but it is also stripped down and ad-free. It won’t replace my current notification system for ombi on the go but it might someday soon..Version: 1.7
Usable with iPhone XThis app will not let you sign in with the iPhone X. The login screen's 3 text box's spill into the top notch, which prevents you from entering the location of your server. I have tried enabling reachability to bring the top of the screen down, but that puts the server location box inside the menu bar still preventing it from being selected. Edit: new update works with IphoneX. General layout is nice. Will use for a bit longer and update again..Version: 1.7
Unable to do anythingEvery single thing about this doesn’t work. Every time I try to request a movie, I get an error. Every time I try to approve a request, I get an error. Useless app. I do love Ombi though!!!.Version: 1.7
Awesome partner to OmbiI’ve been using this since day one with my Ombi server. I also know a lot is coming for new features like mobile app request approvals. This is a great companion to Ombi to not have to always browse to your server. I use it as the admin but I do think most normal users won’t buy it they will just hit the server to make a request which is fine..Version: 1.1
Much easier for my family.Works well. All the functionality of the website but since it’s in app form it’s easier for my family to find and use. A little buggy/janky but gets the job done. One weird bug is when typing in the search field the text doesn’t show (must be that the text is white on a white background, just a guess). Also would love a way to easily see if a movie was requested or if available while searching instead of having to tap on the result to see if it’s pending/available..Version: 1.0
Works, but becoming a money grabAs I said, it does work but I'm getting tired of paying again and again for upgrades on an app I already purchased. I paid for the app and now I have to pay to get the upgrades to the app? If you're going to make me pay for "in-app purchases" then refund me the money I paid for the app..Version: 1.5
Does exactly what it needs toGood app that does exactly what it needs to. Dev is very responsive and always available to help troubleshoot..Version: 1.7
Good programWorks as designed with the back end service. I purchased the app, but am unable to approve movies from mobile version, asking me to buy other services. A little unclear. Other than that, would recommend this for any plex user..Version: 1.7
This stopped working in 2 hours.This stopped working in 2 hours. Internal server error - cant pull from radarr. Biggest headache trying to fix this using sqlite3. Can’t figure this out. Wish i didnt purchase that 3.99 upgrade feature so quickly. Feels lame to contribute to something that just doesn’t work ya know. 3 stars as its possible this gets fixed in the future. Will change to 5 when/if fixed.Version: 1.7
Not the prettiest, but it gets the job doneThe ability to request and approve requests for music would be nice..Version: 1.7
Music?I love having music request on the website but are you going to add it to the mobile app?.Version: 1.7
Doesn't function?It loaded once when setting up, then on launch only shows the app icon which it never progresses from, even with reboot ie doesn't recover from error/bad connection state? Browsing the web site is ok so it's not the server.Version: 2.8.0
Broken nowUsed to work great, request all eps no longer works. Ui just sit there and spins. Request latest season doesn’t work. Disappointed as it used to be reliable..Version: 2.18.2
Good but could be betterThe App by itself accomplish the gol. However, could be better!! Adding options to see more public gave ratings like imdb or Rotten Tomatoes will be awesome..Version: 2.15.0
Not greatThis app has not been updated in over 2 years. Ombi works perfect from my phone browser but doesn’t update from the app. Erased it and put a web shortcut on my phone. Edit New version had been released. Updates and functions as it should. Interface looks great..Version: 2.2.12
Amazing!!!This app is the answer to every server owner out there. The $5 upgrade is to help the developer out. App works just fine without it. The $1.39 is for the users and the $5 is for the server owner if they want to donate which I was more then happy to do. And yes guys... the developer is still working on upgrading the app and Ombi site. His primary focus was to make sure everything worked bug free which is most important. I’ve been using a Ombi for the last 8 months and very happy. With the app you can -Choose what the automated system downloads -Get notified when something you’re following appears on Plex/Emby with your phone. This app is very useful to people who share a server (Plex or Emby) were they can download without involving the server owner. Ombi is my most valuable app of the automated system I have running. It’s one of those things where once you have it you can’t live without it. Thanks tidusjar!.Version: 1.7
Not bad, but behind the web version.This isn’t a bad app, could use a bit of Polish especially when compared to the web. There is a $5 upgrade option within the app it’s self, but I can’t find what features or functionality comes with the upgrade... maybe the dev can comment?.Version: 1.7
Has potential...Is this app still being developed? Although it has great potential, it feels like it hasn't been completed and the experience is incomplete. What are the upgrade features btw?.Version: 1.7
