Maybe they changed something since I used it the last time when it came out but I find the UI to be horrible.
It’s a Manga UI used for watching anime. I rather have a UI with beautiful animations. Saikou has one of the most beautiful UI I’ve ever seen in an app.
While I love Tachiyomi (J2K) as a Manga reader and I think it’s the best one on any platform, it’s not great as a Streaming app designed as a streaming app (I know Saikou isn’t just a streaming app and you can also read Mangas in it, but I rather use Tachiyomi for that)
Edit: just checked it out. Nope still a Manga app UI for an anime streaming app with horrible discoverability and you can’t switch between different sources easily. The sources are cool I guess, but I don’t need those. You also can’t add something on Anilist and automatically have it added to your “continue watching” list.
Switching sources def isn’t a single button thing, but it’s only a few clicks using the Migrate option in the 3 dot menu, it will transfer the progress you had in the previous source and the Anilist/MAL tracking.
Since I use AniChart’s website directly I never missed that part being in the app, but it would be cool too.

Yeah it even has the release calender built in and you can see how long you have to wait for a new episode to release
