TV series have forcefully entered the life of all of us, their quality level has risen and they have become a real phenomenon of costume. Some series have become truly global phenomena and people from all over the world have seen them dubbed or in their native language (often with subtitles).
For those who want to watch their favorite series on the move with smartphones and tablets, even away from their home computer or Smart TV, there are now many options; in this article we will go into all of them the best apps to watch TV series.
Attention: most of the apps mentioned, for reasons of rights, are available only in the territory of our country; to get around geo-blocks you need a special VPN service. We have dethecated an appreciated guide to the best VPNs to see the services even abroad.
App to watch TV series for free
Among the apps for TV series, there are some that allow you to see episodes and entire seasons for free. The most known and used among the free apps in your language (and not) are listed below.
VVVVID
This is a free app known for its large and important anime collection, but offers some interesting British series. Among these we can mention: Casual, Phycoville, Little Britain and The Office.
The use is very simple, just download the client for Android or iOS, then start it and log in with your credentials or therectly via Facebook (or tap to register, just a few steps).
RaiPlay
Not many people know, but Rai has broadcast and still broadcasts many series of great interest. These series can be viewed conveniently via the service app. It is also possible to follow the programming of films and TV series broadcast.
In fact, the app not only allows you to access live and old programs but also offers thefferent series. Unfortunately the TV Series section has been replaced by the Fiction one but there are still a good number of contents (even if the international ones have strongly decreased).
Using the app is really simple: just download it from the Play Store or the App Store and then start it.
Metheaset Play
If instead of foreign TV series you are interested in homegrown fiction then the Metheaset app for you, since it allows you to review all the episodes aired for free.
Also in this case, the use of the app is really simple, just download it from the Play Store or the App Store and then start it, and access the series and episodes.
TitaniumTV
This is the best fork of TerrariumTV, an amateur project to create an alternative to Netflix and sites to watch streaming TV series.
The app is able to fetch episode streams and subtitles from OpenSubtitles and start streaming automatically. Obviously it is not a solution respectful of rights, and allows you to see the episodes only in the original language with subtitles. We mention it in this list purely for reporting purposes, we invite you to use other license-compliant services. In any case, if you want to know more, just do a simple Google search.
PopcornTime
As in the case of the previous app, it is a community project but unlike TitaniumTV, however, it is not based on the streams freely available on the net but on the torrents of the episodes. PopcornTime works well for popular series and a little less for lesser known ones.
Also in this case the episodes are in the original language and the subtitles come from OpenSubtitles. Some forks of the original project are also available on Android and on alternative stores for iOS. Also in this case, we have reported the news of the existence of the app but we advise you not to use it and for details we invite you to do a search on Google.
Kothe + dethecated addons
Also in this case it is not a source respectful of rights but in its great versatility there are Kothe addons capable of taking the episodes from the best streaming sites and making them immediately available.
With this method Kothe becomes an excellent app for streaming TV series. The best addons for series in short are:
- KOD: it is an add-on full of TV series, similar to the old Stream on demand;
- DIABOLIK441: it is add-on full of TV series;
- THEWARRIORS: is a new add-on full of TV series, films and documentaries.
For their download and installation you can find more information on Google.
I Bot the Telegram
Many may not expect it but some Telegram bots are excellent sources of links to stream ad-free TV series episodes.
Often the quality is not transcendental but if you are satisfied with the standard definition (SD) you will find everything. Obviously, this too can be considered as a source that does not respect the rights, so we invite you to respect the law. To learn more about Telegram Bots, you can consult our in-depth study: The best Telegram Bots.
