    FAQ

    Short drama app questions

    Does ReelDrama show ads?

    No. ReelDrama has no ads, no analytics and no tracking, so episodes play back to back without interruptions.

    Do I need an account to use ReelDrama?

    No. There is nothing to sign up for. Your watch history, bookmarks and settings are stored only on your phone.

    Which devices does ReelDrama support?

    Android phones and tablets running Android 8.0 or later. Tablets get a sidebar, a two-pane drama page and a player side panel.

    How does the vertical short drama player work?

    Each episode plays full screen in portrait. Swipe up for the next episode or down for the previous one; episodes advance automatically and resume where you stopped. You can switch server and quality, and the app lowers quality on slow networks.

    Can I add my own short drama catalog?

    Yes. In Profile, Add catalog from URL accepts an HTTPS JSON catalog of videos you are authorized to stream.

    Is ReelDrama on Google Play?

    Not yet. Email hello@luminarklabs.com for a test build, or to talk about licensing ReelDrama for your own catalog.
