While there are a number of ways that the iPad can be put to use, there is no doubt that the device seems made for going through books and for catching up favorite shows and movies. However, to watch shows and movies on your iPad, you will need to use apps which can stream and download videos on your iPad. Here is a collection of the best movie apps for iPad.
Best Movie Apps for iPad
1
It’s free and this is what makes it a great app. I always find movies that I haven’t watched on the app and the app plays all the movies pretty smoothly. It might not be a Netflix replacement but is a great alternative for sure!
Crackle
The first thing that clicks about Crackle is that it is totally free. It doesn’t cost you anything to download the app and you don’t even have to pay anything while watching feature-length movies, TV shows and animes present on Crackle’s database. Crackle has a simple enough user-interface with a Featured section that lists all the all-time hits and favorites that you can watch, a Movies section containing all the movies that you can stream and a TV Shows section as well. You can also search through the database too if you don’t find the movie you want to watch in the Movies section.

There are three columns namely featured, recently added and most popular when you want to browse through movies or TV shows while you can always search a movie or TV show by its name. Streaming videos is extremely smooth while you can watch them with limited advertising. You can also manage queues and subscribe to your favorite shows with the app.

I find movies and documentaries with this app that I haven’t usually seen before and this is the most exciting part for me. The videos don’t crash or freeze either so that’s another plus. A great app overall in my opinion!

Movies by Flixster
Movies by Flixster is an efficient and free iPad movie app which doesn’t only list the latest information on all the recent releases and upcoming movies, but also allows you to play any movie you want directly through the app. The app lets you watch full-movie trailers, create list of ‘must-see’ movies, provides information about a movie’s cast, informs you of a movie’s rating on Rotten Tomatoes, finds critic reviews of the movie for you, helps you book tickets of a movie at your nearest theatre and allows you to buy a movie to watch it on your iPad. The app comes with a clean interface which is very clear about the app’s various functions which is an added benefit.

It provides you with information on the movies that are currently being run in theatres in your area along with the movie timings, trailers etc., while it lets you buy the tickets online as well. I can plan, decide and book a movie on the go with the app!
