Version history on this page starts on Sep 6, 2026, when we began recording it. Rating, installs and the update date describe the official app on Google Play, not this build. Versions and sizes change often. These were current at the time of writing — if you spot one that has drifted, tell us.
Where it stands
Works in its favour
- In the top install tier on Google Play at 100M+ — one of six apps here with a catalogue that broad.
- 1.84M ratings behind the score, so whatever you make of it, it is well-tested.
- The official app carries both ads and in-app purchases; neither applies here.
Worth knowing first
- 3.9 on Play is at the low end of the ratings on this site — feedback runs notably cooler than for the other 100M+ apps here.
- ~76MB is mid-pack, so the size saves you nothing over the alternatives.

Others that work the same way
NetShort
Top pickOur starting recommendation. A larger install at ~104MB, rated 4.7 on Google Play, and the catalogue is broad enough that most people find something on the first evening.
v2.2.9104.48MB
Premium Unlocked
From Agile Quadrant Media, ~85MB. Its official Play listing is "VibeShort: AI Dramas & Reels" — the stories themselves are AI-generated, unlike everything else on this site.
v2.27.085.44MB
Premium Unlocked
From GoodNovel, a web-novel publisher, so the catalogue leans on adapted fiction. At ~56MB it is still one of the lighter installs here.

Frequently asked
About ReelShort
How does ReelShort unlock episodes?
Premium Unlocked. Everything unlocked. No purchase, no subscription, no ads. Premium is enabled inside the app, so episodes that would normally sit behind coins or a subscription just play. Nothing to buy and no ads between episodes.
What version is this and how big is the download?
The current build is v4.1.00, at 76.02MB. It installs as a normal APK and does not need root.
Is ReelShort free?
The official ReelShort sells coins or a subscription inside the app. On this build premium is already enabled, so there is nothing to buy and nothing to subscribe to. What you give up instead is the Play Store: it does not update itself, and when the app changes its server-side checks an old build stops working.
Does ReelShort have ads?
Google Play lists the official ReelShort as containing ads. This build does not show them: no ads between episodes, and none to sit through in order to open a locked one.
Is there a limit on how much I can watch?
Everything is unlocked, with no purchase and no ads. One app on this site applies a daily viewing allowance of its own, and where that is the case it is listed under "Worth knowing first" above — so if nothing there mentions an allowance, there is none.
Are there apps like ReelShort?
NetShort, VibeShort, and GoodShort unlock episodes the same way and are covered here too. The catalogues do not overlap — each app carries its own studio's library — so if you are after one particular series, check which app actually has it rather than picking on list length.
