In the current society, many people prefer to watch their shows on their devices rather than pay for a cable network. Due to this streaming sites and apps are on the rise. In case you prefer watching films and TV shows on your mobile phone then Showbox is one of those apps which you must surely be familiar with.
Showbox is a media streaming app which works similarly to stream sites like Netflix but does not actually have its own database of videos. Instead, Showbox acts like a search engine which gets all its viewable content from outside, around the globe streaming sites, and shows them all at one place for the convenience of the user.
Due to this, Showbox has a legally questionable reputation. While being legal in its entirety what makes the app questionable is the fact that most of its videos are taken from pirated streaming sites. Due to this, the app has not been able to enter the official mobile market even though the app has been able to overcome copyright concerns.
