Install Showbox On Your iPhone & iPad | No Jail-breaking Necessary!

If you are searching for an easy to follow and detailed guide on how to get Showbox for iPhone & iPad, you’ve come to the right place!

I’m not going to sugar coat it. As an iOS user, it is a little bit trickier to get Showbox (aka Moviebox) working on your iPhone or iPad devices compared to setting up Showbox on a PC or android device. That being said, I’ve done my best to simplify the process as much as possible in the following tutorials. You’ll notice that I’ve included not just 1 method, but several below since certain versions of iOS may or may not work with each and every method. The tested iOS versions have been highlighted in green under each section to help you choose the best method for your device!

One last thing…

You may notice that Showbox and MovieBox are used interchangeably in this article. Some methods may have you install one or the other, but they are nearly identical in function. For the sake of redundancy and reliability, It’s advised that you download both just in case one or the other is experiencing issues when you want to stream!

Before you begin….

The following methods utilize applications that aren’t sanctioned by the Apple App store. As such, there is an inherent risk in downloading apps from ANY 3rd party or private vendors/authors. For your own peace of mind, I recommend that you create a full backup prior to proceeding! While many other similar sites may not be so forward with this information, I think It’s important that you understand the risks involved when dealing with 3rd party applications, proceed at your own risk.

I still can’t get MovieBox to work!

Moviebox (aka Movie HD) has become extremely popular lately, and for good reason! The ability to stream or download your favorite movies and tv shows for free makes for one hell of an app. But because demand has grown so much, so quickly for these apps, sometimes the company behind them may struggle to patch bugs or add enough servers to accommodate their growing audience.

If you haven’t already done so, simply updating to the latest and greatest .apk file can typically resolve many of the issues you may encounter when using these apps, but not always. If you’ve been using Showbox or Moviebox for awhile now you have probably already experienced some of these ‘growing pains’ and outages yourself. Rather than pull your hair out trying to troubleshoot issues that are more than likely beyond your control, I personally recommend grabbing a few alternatives as a backup. If you’ve already tried the MovieHD apk and have had no luck, consider trying one of these other awesome free movie streaming apps.
