What is CucoTV?
CucoTV appeared on the scene around January 2021 and seems to be a replacement clone of the popular ZiniTevi app. It is a video-on demand app that lets you stream the latest movies and TV shows for free. It’s a one-click app, where the user does not have to search for or click on links. A selected movie or episode automatically starts to stream when you press play. The one-click nature of this app makes it very popular with users. You can sideload CucoTV onto almost any Android streaming device as well as all Fire TV devices.
How Does CucoTV Work?
CucoTV works by searching and scraping free sources from online databases and websites. When a suitable source is found, it will automatically start to stream. However, scraping for links works much better with Real Debrid. Real Debrid is a premium service that searches for premium quality sources. Overall, this provides many more sources in buffer free and high quality, up to 4K in resolution.
This app is also compatible with Trakt. This is a great way of synchronising all of your favourite movies, shows, watchlists and more across multiple devices and multiple applications. With Trakt, you can always keep on top of what you’re watching and what’s more, never miss an episode!
Is CucoTV Legal?
Yes. This app does not host any content and is in essence just a search engine. It is therefore 100% legal to install and use. However, it is unlikely that the majority of links scraped from databases and websites hold the proper licencing for distributing the content. In reality, this means you will be unlawfully streaming copyrighted content. Doing so could get you into legal trouble. Accordingly, you may prefer to use this app with a VPN.

In order to stream anonymously, stay protected, and unlock the internet, I recommend using NordVPN.
