It’s not even surprising anymore platforms do this & act all Pikachu face why piracy is spiking
Netflix & all these streaming platforms have completely lost touch & they will lose more customers in the long run
To quote Gabe Newell on Piracy
“We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable.”
I highly recommend doing to on a PC or Mac. Doing this initially on a phone is buggy. Essentially Streamio is just a player like VLC, but has the ability to have add-ons. These add-on doesn’t need to be resetup on each device you install it on. Just sign in and it’s working.
As for real debrid, I would pay the 180 days one because they give you points that you can redeem for another month or so of days.
Good luck.
Stremio Setup Guide
Part 1: Stremio
For Windows/Mac users - Go to https://www.stremio.com/ and download the relevant client for your platform
For Android users - Install Stremio through the Google Play Store: Stremio - Apps on Google Play
Choose a package and subscribe. I found that using Amazon Pay as the payment method is the most convenient (if you have an Amazon account)
Part 3: Torrentio
Go to Torrentio Lite - Stremio Addon
Towards the bottom of the page, select the “Debrid Provider” option and select “Real Debrid” from the drop-down menu. This will cause a new text box to appear underneath.
In the Debrid Options menu: Check the box “Don’t show download to debrid links” and leave the other boxes unchecked.
Click “Install” at the bottom. It should open the Stremio app and prompt you with an “Install Addon” window. Click the green install button at the bottom.
Optional but highly Recommended - In Stremio, click the puzzle piece in the top right to view your addons. Click “My Addons” and uninstall the “WatchHub” addon. It’s an eyesore and it clutters your streams list.
Now that you have completed the setup, you may install Stremio on any device of your choice (excluding IOS) and log in to your account to start streaming Movies/TV. Refer to the section below for Stremio installation on FireOS devices (Fire Stick, FireTV).
Sometimes I find the movie with the best subtitles and then play it in streamio. Pause and then go to real debrid to download it for when I’m going on a flight.

I get Netflix for free from tmobile. But I use real-debrid and streamio to watch Netflix shows because the UI is better.
I was given a netflix login by a friend, I don’t use it.
Can you give me a tldr or a source for a tldr of setting up real-debrid with stremio?

Exactly what I do… I keep thinking it’s too good to last. I still download things if I know I’m going to rewatch them a lot.
Me too. But make sure to log into real debrid and just download it from there.
I’m gonna be honest. I never have done that till today. Wow… So much easier. Incredible.
