ShowBox is one of the most popular streaming app. Users are able to watch a variety of video content ranging from well-known TV series to cult-classic movies without paying a dime.
While ShowBox is great it has its disadvantages. Maybe you won’t find a particular title. Or you may want to watch something but the servers are down.
There are also the legal problems faced by the ShowBox team. Earlier in 2018 several studies sued the sites that hosted the APK file for the app. While the conflict has been solved, the sites in question are now forced to display ominous banners which clearly note that viewers are breaching the copyright law and they should opt for a legal alternative.
