Cross platform here we come!!!

So we’ve kept this as kind of a secret, but one of the things we’ve been working hard on for the past couple of months is a cross platform desktop version all built in C++ which will be the same for Mac, Windows and Linux…

And tadddddah!!!!!!

Here it is guys. Please welcome version beta 4.4, at the moment for Mac and Windows (Linux, we love you guys, yours will be ready in just a few days!!).

From this moment on there’s no more “they have this and we don’t blah blah blah”… Everyone will be equals, and equals is the best way to be!

So what’s new??

Macs, for the first time you’re also getting FREE BUILT IN VPN!!! Yes. Now you can also be anonymous!! (powered by Kebrum)

Also we added Chromecast and Airplay support for Mac and improved the Chromecast and Airplay support for Windows.

And, and we believe that you’ve been waiting anxiously to read these words coming from our mouths….

SUBTITLES support FOR CHROMECAST!!!
Yes, this one was a tough cookie, but we ate it and now you can cast all your favorite movies with their subtitles using Chromecast! Apple TV, you’re next to get subtitles, don’t worry.

And what else?

• Better cpu usage!
• Free built in VPN

• Lot’s of love hard work and sweat from your devoted PT team.

So enjoy, and if anything doesn’t work for you, please fight the urge to report it here, but just click this link here and post it there.

And don’t forget to share this software with everyone, anyone, and someone!

Yours like movie stars,

Popcorn Time team.

Hey everyone,

We just found out something very disturbing… It seems as if someone is trying to trademark Popcorn Time.

Meaning making Popcorn Time their own and not a public project as it is today.

This is news to us and we’re still figuring out how to respond to this, but this is rude and it is something we take very seriously.

We assure you that we will never ever do something like this, and we will not let this happen that someone else will claim that it is their trademark. Never. An open source project is for everyone. It does not belong to us or to anyone else!

We will keep you posted on how this evolves….

Hey everyone,

We’re sure most of you have noticed that the built in VPN service wasn’t working well recently…

Well, we worked our asses off together with Kebrum, we built a brand new infrastructure which should be more stable to and good to secure all of you guys!!

So go a head and check it out, if there’s anything wrong with it still let us know on our forum, and that’s it.

Enjoy!

Hello Androiders,

A few days after we released Android 0.2.1 we give you the improved update Android 0.2.2!!

What changed?

1. Wrong subtitle bug is fixed- no more trying to watch Portuguese subtitles and getting Hebrew lol
2. Some stability issues were solved
3. We managed to achieve even faster download speed on this one…

Update will happen automatically on your device.

If you still haven’t installed Popcorn Time on your Android you can get the new version here: http://time4popcorn.eu/android.html

Enjoy and if there’s anything wrong with this version let us know on our forum

Mac and iOS - You’re next!!

Hey Androiders,

We’re here with awesome news for you guys once again!!

Beta 2.1 is out and now you all can watch movies and TV shows with free VPN sponsored by Kebrum.com!!! Awesomeness.

Get it at: time4popcorn.eu/android.html

What else is new on 2.1?

Androiders- we’re sorry…

But it appears that all your free time from now on will be spent “veggy’ing” in front of your TV watching your favorite movies and TV shows which will be casting from your Android device… The health administration does advise getting up every hour or so to stretch your limbs, empty your bladder, and pay attention to your: Spouse/children/best friend/dog/cat/boyfriend/girlfriend/plants… Lol

So yes. Android beta 2.0 is finally here!!! http://time4popcorn.eu/android.html

And is case the first paragraph (which we found very amusing!!) wasn’t clear enough- Chromecast support is now available on Androids!!! (Mac users, don’t worry you’re next!!!).

And what else did we work so hard on??

1. Automatic updates- from now on all the new features, fixes and what not will update automatically while you sit back sipping a margarita!!
2. Native UI
3. Faster download of movies/TV shows- no more getting stuck at 96%…
4. Major bug fixes
5. More devices supported- If your device is still not supported please let us know in our forum, we started a thread especially for it here: http://forum.time4popcorn.eu/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=708

Coming up: Built in free VPN for Android!! It will be released on version beta 2.1 which is due in a week or so.. (if everything goes according to plan of course…)

Ladies and Gents, boys and girl, dear users, “the wind in our sails” (yes, that’s all of you!!), our friends:

Chromecast support is finally here!

Alpha 4.3 with Chromecast support for Windows is in alpha, get it here: http://time4popcorn.eu/alpha.html

We can’t tell you how happy we are today- this was a very challenging…. Challenge

We enjoyed it, but we hated keeping all of you waiting for so long- so now that it’s out, we’re PHEWWWWWW if you know what we mean!!
This is the alpha version, so handle with care and let us know what works, what doesn’t, and if you do find something that’s not working properly (hopefully not!!) let us know in our forum and be as specific as possible (also tell us which Windows version you’re running, etc.).
The beta version by the way, will be out and will update automatically in a week or so for those of you who choose to wait.
“To download the alpha or to wait for the beta?” It’s one of life’s more difficult dilemmas. We know.

**It’s not casting subtitles yet- it will take a bit longer until we start casting them, but we’re on it- no worries!

What else?

Applers (Mac’s):
In approx 2 weeks if everything goes according to plan you’ll have something new and much much better to play around with- beta 4.3 for Mac, with built in VPN (The Anonymous Apples- sounds like a name of a rock band, no?) and a whole new better infrastructure which will resolve many issues some of you were having!
Chromecast support is also in the works for Mac, but it will take a bit longer, so stay tuned for that.

Androiders:
Popcorn Time beta 0.2 for Android will be released this week (if everything goes according to plan) and it will have Chromecast support (yes!!!) and major bug fixes. We’re working UBER hard on making Popcorn Time work on all Android supporting devices, but there are so many out there- you can’t even believe how many, and each device has it’s own needs and requests and things it likes, and doesn’t like hehe… Kinda like women lol (women, we love you, can’t live without you!!)
So it may be a little longer until Pochoclin manages to satisfy all their different needs, but he will.

Many more exciting things are in the works… iOS in August (you didn’t hear it from us!!!) and more…

Yes, we definitely believe this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship!!

Now go, download, and please please please- share Popcorn Time (time4popcorn.eu) with your friends!! Help us spread the word- it is all we ask of you!!

Lots of Popcorn Love,

Popcorn Time Team

So of course we would rather have the actual apk on the store, the one that Google removed in less than 24 hours after it was launched (they’ve had it in for Pochoclin ever since he was a baby POP).
BUT since we can’t have that as Google is not returning our calls (rude!!)we did create an app that enables the user to download the app in a jiffy!!
And also with this app you can update our new version releases in just one click as soon as they’re out.

Get it HERE your Androiders.

And don’t worry iOS’ers, you’re coming up next!

**3 days i t took them this time, but as probably you notice, this link isn’t working anymore… Damn Google.
The apk is still available for download on our homepage- from there, no one will be able to remove it!!!!

Hey People,

We’re not sure how many of you guys have been exposed to this article:

https://torrentfreak.com/popcorn-time-users-get-fined-copyright-trolls-140515/

It is important for us to say a few words on this matter to clarify where we stand on this and the things we’re doing to keep our users Troll safe!

First of all, there’s no way to prove that the users who were fined were actually viewing torrents using Popcorn Time. From what we gather the word Popcorn Time was not mentioned not even once in the letters the users received.

But still this topic concerns us and if what’s written in the article is true and happened to Popcorn Time users, then we’re very sad to see this.
FYI: Our Android app encrypts the bittorrent traffic from the start and now our alpha 4.0 version which will soon turn into Beta 4.0 also encrypts the bittorrent traffic.
This is the first and ONLY release of Popcorn Time which protects the users- and we worked super hard to make this available ASAP once we witnessed these trolls in action.
AND since this subject is really important to us, we are also going to offer a built in VPN in our apps very soon, proving once more our loyalty to this project

Rock ON users!!!
