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
- The official app carries no ads at all, which is rare in this category — what this build removes is just the in-app purchase paywall.
- 4.6 on Play, in the upper half of the ratings here.
- A light install at ~54MB, in the lighter half of this list.
Worth knowing first
- 100K+ installs is the smallest catalogue tier on this site — newer and less proven than everything else listed.
- 7.89K ratings is a thin sample for that 4.6 to rest on.

Frequently asked
About ToonShort
How does ToonShort 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 v1.3.4, at 54.07MB. It installs as a normal APK and does not need root.
Is ToonShort free?
The official ToonShort 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 ToonShort have ads?
Google Play does not list the official ToonShort as containing ads, and this build does not show any either.
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 ToonShort?
ReelShort, NetShort, and VibeShort 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.
