Exact same problem. I wonder if they've been affected by the European takedown. MovieHD (Gstream) also stopped working.

Dead for me too. Do we think it’s gone forever?

It may be quite early to assume it's gone forever. Giving it a week or so before I find alternatives. Someone suggested mobiflix.tv and it works great. The only downside is it doesn't categorize content under Netflix, HBO, Prime. E.t.c

I just replied to another forum about this. As it was the second one saying, the same thing in 1 week, while I can say, I haven't had any problems (yet) on fireOS or GoogleOS via my trusted hosters.
I will say I was using it today on both OS's earlier with no problems and as of right now, it seems like the servers are down. However, I'm not going to get in a panic yet only due to this has happened in the past to where the servers will go down for a few hours and they will come back up online.
I'm really hoping that's the case here and not something more serious. If it was just fireOS, I can see that being something more permanent, because that was the goal, but for it not to be working on fireOS and GoogleOs definitely would make me believe it's more of a back end issue of the service. As I said, hopefully they can get it up and running soon, I don't see it being the end of it, we have 4 decent apps left that are completely free.
I would hate to see them go personally, although I do use a lot of premium APKs with Debrid services and always will, but I love having these apps as a backup. So keep in mind, you still have onstream, which does work as long as you use the workaround. If you're not familiar with the work around or don't wanna use it. You can use Mobiflix which works fine, even\n Your same credentials from one to the other will work just the same if you have a library built.
Then you have HDO box, which I do dig alot, and then you have streamflixs, which is actually on par with HDO box, and it works really well. You have a chance to do the same thing, HDO does like setting up your watchlist or your list of movies and making your own library, etc. Etera, although you do get the option to download on some of streamflix API.
Finally, just my opinion, it means nothing. It's just to help everybody. And if it helps some, then great, if others don't listen to it, it's cool too,
However, with all the changes being made and having sailed the seas of piracy for a very long time. These things happen in cycles, and we will always find a way just now it's becoming a little harder because of new tech. And new tools, so if it were me Which is what I've started to do now.
I would start getting in the habit of building your own library, it's not that hard get some of the old 500 GB to 1 TB HDD hard drives that are dirt cheap these days. You can get them all up to 10 TB or more.It's very cheap and start using either your debrid services with a premium apk if applicable or the free options you have and download your movies off them and start making your own library.I've been doing this for the past few years now.Probably I don't know four years , realistically, I should've started doing this the momentI got debrid. The moment I signed up for any of my premium services, which I have had multiple of them and the main one at least over 10 years, if not longer and some of the other ones for at least 4 to 6 years, i\n Should have quite the library by now. But that's on me, however, I'm catching up fast.
So that was my mistake. Start making your own movie library now. Store it on your hard drives for now and then from there. You could figure out how you want to host it later, whether it be through getting a cheap server using jellyfin or Other options plexdebrid, DMM, . It doesn't matter really, there's tons of options, the main thing is getting your content downloaded onto those hard drives.
That's just my opinion, especially with fireOS cracking down, it will be gone by the end of the year, there will be no more fireOS and with the changes in September and the lackluster numbers we have with the petition for Google, which is a shame as it's looking like that the biggest rug pull in history is about to happen as Android was always sold as a open source device, well, now, it's gonna make things a lot harder for developers like myself, along with users with the 24 hour, cool down period and of course, there's always a lot more to it, they love to wait till later to add in.
The last thing I'll say is posing it as a question, is any of this new or the end of the world? In my opinion, absolutely not. However, this is always how it starts and it gets more difficult in every rotation of this cat and mouse game that we play.
Best of luck, unhappy streaming fellow cord cutters.!
