We are a multi media society and we love our videos. There are a huge variety of apps and devices to help us stream our content. Zimly is one of those and is one of the better ones I have tried.

The app is available for both Android and iOS. I used the iOS version for this review.

The app is pretty straight forward but there is a nice tutorial if you need one. The whole idea behind the app is to allow you to play/stream content from your PC to your mobile device or Chromecast. You can play songs or videos. You can create playlists, setup folders, etc to organize the content. The app will allow you to download the content from your PC to your mobile device wirelessly.  The app will also play any media you currently have on your mobile device.

Now for the app to work, you will need to download and install a Zimly Streamer for Windows or MAC. Once installed, you will then need to setup an connection between the two.  You can do this via a PIN or Facebook/Google sign ins.  All of this is very easy and painless.

Zimly is clear and simple to use. The layout and organization of the media makes it easy to watch any of your favorite PC stored files. There is not a lot more to say, Zimly does what it says it will do. I do not have a Chromecast, so I could not test that aspect of the app/service.  Need a way to stream from your PC? give Zimly a look.

 Key Features:

  • Streams songs and videos in computer right on your mobile device
  • Plays media just like your default media player
  • Easy and simple connection process
  • Enjoy videos in HD with no downtime
  • Enjoy media offline by downloading contents onto your mobile device
  • Lyrics and subtitles support
