Couldn’t get much worse
★ · v11.29.0 · Oct 13, 2026
This is one of the least functional apps I have ever used. The search function doesn’t work. It worked when I first opened the app, but it was terrible. then after a few searches it stopped working entirely. The app wants to require me to watch their own content to unlock search history? This whole thing is horrible. Shut this company down.
Gotten so difficult to use
★ · v11.26.0 · Oct 7, 2026
I used to absolutely love Vimeo. We have been with them since the beginning. But as the company has grown, and as they’ve added features, the things that made Vimeo the best have gone to the wayside.
It’s very clunky to use embedding videos on our website have poor playback experience and file reviews for clients which used to be a dream are now super buried and difficult to send review links out to clients.
I have come to greatly dislike this app and I used to be totally in love with it. Because it’s gotten so difficult now we use Frame.io and YouTube. Two apps that used to be combined inside Vimeo.
Crashes regularly
★★ · v11.26.0 · Oct 4, 2026
Rarely goes more than 20 minutes without crashing. Doesn’t remember position in video (even after being closed without crashing).
They cannibalized their web viewer to try and get people to use the app
★ · v11.25.0 · Sep 19, 2026
Vimeo has gotten worse and worse over the years but now that they hide the “full screen” button on the web browser so that it’s hard to watch full screen videos is completely unacceptable. Your job is to make my videos easy to watch, and you’re prioritizing getting downloads on your bloatware app. Moving my business to frame.io right now.
Shuts down
★ · v11.25.0 · Sep 19, 2026
Can’t window in window or just sound. App closes. Maybe in all the years of using my saved offline videos has it worked a handful of times but never consistently.
No longer opens
★ · v11.25.0 · Sep 19, 2026
For a month now, Vimeo does not open on my iPhone 17 Pro
Search function doesn’t work
★ · v11.25.0 · Sep 16, 2026
Typing the title of a video you know is on the platform, because the mobile site demanded you download the app when you tried to watch it there, and 0 results. Even searching the name of the publisher yielded 0 results. I feel like ai being let loose on the code must’ve broken the search engine or something. Absolute garbage app.
Can’t reset pw
★ · v11.25.0 · Aug 9, 2026
Doesn’t recognize my email, huh? It says the email I’ve been using for 30 years is invalid. uninstalled.
This is the worst app
★ · v11.24.1 · Jul 14, 2026
The videos are extremely limited and are often not very interesting. What I want is to watch videos about birds, not mediocre artists.
A joke
★ · v11.24.1 · Jul 13, 2026
The AppleTV app is awful…you can’t even click on the video creator’s profile to go to their channel/page. What is the point?
Pornography
★ · v11.24.1 · Jul 10, 2026
Open the app and get sent straight to a gay pornographer video can’t remove it. Can’t report this app is really bad…
Good platform, buggy app
★★ · v11.24.1 · Jul 5, 2026
Used to work fine, now crashes regularly while videos are playing. especially when using airplay/casting to another device to watch on larger screens
Just doesn’t work
★ · v11.24.1 · Jun 22, 2026
Vimeo is an extremely expensive hosting site that can’t do the basics. They’re constantly changing the interface to no benefit which causes confusion and bugs. Every time I send a Vimeo link, I hear that it’s not viewable or invalid. Complete failure and waste of money.
Currently unusable
★ · v11.24.1 · May 20, 2026
Every time I try to search for a topic, I get, "! Failed to load. Retry". It doesn't matter what the topic is - Tourism, Europe, travel etc.
Tried closing the App and reopening, deleting the App and reloading and even rebooting the device.
I'm deleting for good now. I don't have time to waste.
New search horrible
★ · v11.24.1 · May 1, 2026
Vimeo has gone backwards and the Apple TV search function a joke. Can’t search by user anymore . Never seen an organization remove useful functionality.
Stupid censorship
★ · v11.24.1 · Apr 12, 2026
I uploaded art-time-lapse. Then my account got deleted. What a joke.
Vimeo treats you like criminals
★ · v11.24.1 · Mar 29, 2026
Now you have to take mugshots to access that lame app ? This is crazy. I do not understand its point anymore. What kind of service they offer now? Do they work for the future One World Government by giving them all our personal information, face and profiles pictures ? What is going on there ? I can no longer discover cool videos like we ised to. Very very disappointing and disturbing.
Terrible
★ · v11.24.1 · Mar 20, 2026
You can no longer search for hardly anything without getting a “failed to load” message. If you wait and try again after an hour or two you can search for a few moments before it fails to load again. Also, I am in the USA. They claim that search problems are only for people in EU/UK, but that’s not true.
which account is it?
★★ · v11.24.1 · Feb 24, 2026
you are forced to make a vimeo account when you purchase independent content. blah blah, becomes disparate and annoying. if you insist on being the middle man make it easy. i dislike vimeo.
Don’t download
★ · v11.24.1 · Jan 29, 2026
Used to like this app. Then they fried all their developers… it’s gone down hill since then. Never had an issue with storage before and now it’s saying I’m almost out. Just avoid this app completely.
App crashes after 10 min
★ · v11.24.1 · Jan 28, 2026
App always crashes after 10 min of video playback. I hope they look at crash reports.
Vimeo has fallen
★ · v11.23.0 · Jan 8, 2026
Vimeo used to be great to use. We would use it instead of YouTube when YouTube started getting really strict with copyrights on music, and they would just mute the entire video. Now, the app doesn’t hardly work. Most searches end up coming back with no results. When you finally find a certain channel, it says they have no videos, even though it clearly shows they have videos in the search preview of the channel before you click on it. The app is clunky, and it doesn’t seem like they want you to be able to watch videos without a profile or without paying for some kind of paid membership now. Pretty sad.
Support older versions of iOS
★ · v11.22.1 · Jan 2, 2026
Let me download the app!
Not worth it .
★ · v11.22.1 · Dec 25, 2025
I paid I should not haft to pay you again
Buffering????
★ · v11.20.0 · Nov 20, 2025
WHAT IS UP WITH THE BUFFERING?!?!?!? I’m trying to watch a tutorial and naturally it helps to be able to rewind to catch things you missed. But only if the app you’re using doesn’t CRASH/BUFFER ENDLESSLY every time you hit the back 10 seconds button. If this weren’t the only place the content was available I would not be using Vimeo. It’s not my internet btw. YouTube doesn’t have this issue in the slightest.
