Allblk is a bundle of excellent black shows and movies.

Nitika Dahiya | Streaming Expert

I rate Allblk a 6.9 on 10. The ALLBLK collection contains a continuously increasing slate of popular original Allblk TV shows with a varied programming roster that spans genres and generations of Black talent and creativity. 

ALLBLK's programming celebrates Black culture, a platform for black producers and talent worldwide, and a go-to destination for Black entertainment enthusiasts. With only one login, you can access ALLBLK on all of your devices. 

ALLBLK TV app is available practically anywhere streaming services are available. The service doesn't stand out in terms of the catalog or particular features, but it fills a gap in the Black streaming market that is still underserved.

Get Started With ALLBLK TV Now!

ALLBLK, previously known as UMC (Urban Movie Channel), has been the first and most exemplary streaming service for Black TV and film since its introduction in November 2014.   It is your invitation to stream Black content better than ever before. In the world of streaming entertainment, that is inclusively, but unapologetically—Black. Exclusive original series, must-see independent films, vintage Black cinema, popular network T.V., exciting stage performances, and much more are available on the ALLBLK TV app.

ALLBLK TV subscription plans

  1. Plans start at $4.99 per month, but if you sign up for a year, the AllBlk TV price totals to $49.99. (an annual savings of ten dollars). 
  2. I also discovered that a $4.99-per-year subscription is available on the site. It's a remnant from the costs on Urban Movie Channel.
  3. The other possible reason may be the device you subscribe to.
  4. Allblk TV usually costs around $6.99 per month, but if you're fortunate, it may cost you $4.99 if there’s any offer available on the website.

Features

User interface:

  • The user interface is simple to use. You always have access to the search bar, as well as links to the home screen, popular shows, the gift card store, and the general assistance page, no matter which page you are on. 
  • Each entry includes the director and cast members and a content description so that you can search by title or actors on the AllBLK TV app.
  • Genres (drama, romance), formats (movies, T.V., stage play), and shows you've recently watched or added to your watchlist are among the search categories.

 

Content catalog:

 
  • ALLBLK contains about 1,000 hours of programming, so there's something for everyone.
  • Allblk TV movies and shows are highly entertaining to watch.
  • Krush Groove, a 1985 musical comedy starring Blair Underwood, Sheila E., and L.L. Cool J.. Blackout, a 2007 independent film starring Michael B. Jordan and Zoe Saldana, is available. 
  • OWN's Love Is, a ten-episode romance drama based on producers Mara Brock Akil and Salim Akil's real-life love network programs, is now available to stream. 
  • You may even see stage productions, such as Garcelle Beauvais and Isaiah Washington in David E. Talbert's Suddenly Single, a 2012 production starring Garcelle Beauvais and Isaiah Washington as high school sweethearts whose 17-year marriage is disintegrating.
 

Accessibility:

 
  • When it comes to accessibility, the service performs better. 
  • Subtitles can be enabled on mobile and the web. Subtitles can be customized on the web by adjusting their size, color, font, and window transparency. 
  • Allblk TV app requests that you report any closed-captioning faults you encounter. However, I had no such issues throughout my testing. 
  • There are no audio descriptions, which are a newer sort of accessibility technology available on streaming providers.
  • There is an AllBlk TV free trial of 7 days. 

 

What does it lack?

Parental controls:

 
  • The content listings on Allblk TV app provide a lot of information. Still, they don't include any ratings or other information that could help decide whether or not the content is appropriate for children. 
  • There are no parental controls on the service, and you can't create several profiles or watchlists with a single account. 

 

DVR Storage

 

  • There is no availability of DVR storage along with the service.

Conclusion

The Allblk app is an excellent boost to supporting black cultural diversity. It has an extensive library and is easy to use. However, there are few disappointments with this app. It isn't very easy to log in to.

 

An error message keeps appearing on the display screen or the login window every time someone tries to log in, even with the correct password. The Allblk TV subscription is difficult to cancel. I would recommend this app for its content, but one should always be careful using it.
