The main thing is that the application is approved by Apple. Univer Note actually functions as a productivity app, but if you’re in countries like France or Canada, a French menu full of pirated movies and shows will appear. The shows it as a standard app, but it has an incredible rating of 4.9 out of 5 stars.
When we downloaded and tested it ourselves, we found movies and shows like Agatha Along, Breaking Bad, Office, Deadpool and Wolverine and many other titles, all streamed for free.
The content is divided into sections for various streaming services such as Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV+, Prime Video, Max, Paramount+ and Crunchyroll, as well as several French-only platforms. Some movies have recently been released in cinemas, including Poison: The Last Dance and Horror 3.
It is likely that Apple will soon remove Univer Note from the store, and this will not be the last application that passes through the filters of the tech giant. However, the fact that it has a lot of content from major streaming platforms makes it a particularly terrible slide. You have to imagine that Netflix and Disney are not happy about this.
