It's easy to say that we've been spoiled of choice with streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon. The rise of streaming services has highlighted the need for quality TV and creativity isn't just in movies, but every form of content creation.
Disclaimer
Hey, did you know FlixTor is a website that provides high-quality content, including movies and TV shows, for free?
Minimal Ad-Experience
I have to admit that FlixTor is different from every other streaming service out there. Many people who stream on the site would know that Ads are a holy grail on these streaming sites. Mistimed clicks, millions of pop-ups, and poor interface sums up 90% of such streaming sites. However, that's not the case with FlixTor. It's not bombarded with ads and irritating pop-ups.
The only problem you might face during a live stream is that they might ask you to sign up. But that doesn't keep bothering you like a bee. It's on you whether you want to do that or not. And don't hesitate in signing up because you're not alone. There's an entire community.
Catering to a wide market
These streaming sites offer content, but for free. This means you can enjoy similar quality content without having to spend a dime. There is no subscription, no commitment, just a capable internet connection to stream anything you want. FlixTor has a sincere fan base.

Want to know what separates FlixTor from other free streaming services? The ability to watch any form of content - TV series, movies and cartoons on any device from any location - Extensive library of over 2 million movies - Availability of movie trailer before streaming - User-friendly browsing with search filters to sort categories - Ability to choose from the latest movies based upon date, popularity, and genre.
These features are standard, but we must not forget that they're all free.
A Search Engine Not a Streaming Site
FlixTor is not a streaming site, per se. It's more of a search engine that collects the best quality videos available on streaming sites that host the data. Many people think of it as an end-platform that hosts content, but that's not true - it's a fully automated engine that scans other streaming websites for the best quality videos and collects them all in one place.
History
FlixTor was developed in just a week - it took five days, to be precise.
Design
If you're into streaming online using free websites, you know that design is not an area where you can keep high expectations. But surprisingly, FixTor's layout and the overall appeal doesn't rub you off.
A light blue color scheme is seen across the website and on each page. The homepage banners are of low quality and unresponsive size, but I don't think you would expect it to be any better given that most sites don't even have banners.
On the homepage, you'll find well-diversified categories such as TV Shows, Movies, Home, TV Episodes, My List and VIP Menu Tabs. You can access the content based on genres and upload date.
Each stream can be sorted by your preference. There's the Most Popular category followed by Recommended which is a feature you see in premium streaming websites. Whether you stream from Firefox, Opera or Chrome, the website is compatible with all these browsers. Furthermore, it has an integrated media player so it will perform well even if your internet connection is poor.
Content
If Netflix were free, I could imagine them renaming themselves FlixTor. That's essentially what this service is - minus all the 4k content. You can stream over a million movies and TV shows via the FlixTor website or the app.
Additionally, the rating system lets you know if the content is appropriate for your age group. This way, you can avoid watching anything that might embarrass you later.
I like FlixTor's streaming service because it is easy to use. I love the trailer feature and the star rating apart from other details. Thus, before you play any content and decide to spend your valuable data connection, you can learn about the title via synopsis, reviews and a trailer. Additionally, the rating system lets you know if the content is appropriate for your age group. This way, you can avoid watching anything that might embarrass you later.
Desktop Experience
If you've used Popcorn Time, getting the hang of FlixTor won't take a long time. There are a lot of similarities between both the app.
With FlixTor, you can watch your streaming content either through an integrated media player or through another external player like VLC. I'd recommend VLC because it's the most compatible video player and it works well with the majority of the streaming formats.
Mobile Experience
The good news is that you can get a similar streaming experience to what you get on your desktop by using the FlixTor app. This allows you to cast the stream onto your TV. As for the lack of subtitles, the developers are working on it and they hope to have them available soon.
Regardless of which streaming app or player you choose to use, the interface is great and you get access to high-quality content.
As mentioned earlier, FlixTor runs on a variety of browsers but is best used with Chrome, Opera, and Mozilla. The app can also be downloaded for Mac, Windows, and Linux. If you want an Android app, you should search for an APK as it is not available on the PlayStore.
I enjoyed streaming on the website and app. The FlixTor app has ads, but they don't compromise on the quality of the content. So, I'm okay with some discrepancies if the stream is great.
If you're streaming via desktop, you can also download the content.
Plans & Pricing
Though FlixTor is a free service, it does have a VIP membership. The channel accepts donations and provides you with a VIP pass in return. As opposed to free users who need to watch ads, VIP members don't have to watch ads. In addition, they also get access to an up-to-date library, something which isn't offered to normal users. Even the fee you pay is a one-time fee and not a recurring subscription model. So, you don't have to worry about direct debits.
You can subscribe for a period between 30 days and 2 years and the donations are classified into four tiers: $14.95/month, $29.95 for 3 months, $49.95 for 6 months, or $89.95 for 2 years.
Suggestions I have for FlixTor
I like the user interface, but I think the developers could add red accents to make it look more premium. The website partially represents the logo with a light blue shade, but if certain parts of the website were colored orange or red, it would look more premium.
Conclusion
FlixTor is a free, alternative to some of the more popular streaming services. It operates similarly to Putlocker and Popcorn time, which means you can watch movies and TV shows without having to pay for them.
