These 5 softwares claim they are able to be the StreamFab alternatives but are they? Check the details of each one of them to find out the truth.
SameMovie is a video downloader and recorder for Windows and Mac that provides download features on 16 OTT premium services including Netflix, Amazon, Disney+, etc. The download operation is easy to do with its built-in browser.
One tricky thing is, as you can see, SameMovie separates Amazon Premium services into Amazon.com, Amazon.co.jp, etc. It did the same thing on Disney+ and Hulu. Unlike StreamFab, which can actually make downloads on all 53 VIP services indeed, it just seems to have a lot of supported services.

PlayOn is a streaming recoder works on both PC and Android. Different from other StreamFab alternatives, it charges in two kinds of individual plans, PlayOn Cloud and PlayOn Home, which suit various device situations. The recordings happen in the cloud with PlayOn Cloud, which means you can finish the operation on Mac, iPhone, iPad, or Android devices. Well, PlayOn Home is just a regular desktop recorder on Windows.
Since it is a recorder instead of a downloader like StreamFab, its output quality undoubtedly faces loss issues. And of course, the recording costs your time the same as the movie's length. Besides, there is a pile of feedback on Reddit saying that some of its services were broken but the fixes keep delaying, and it also has the common CPU issue on recorders that as the usage reached an unbelievable 100%. On the other hand, StreamFab has a serious schedule for updating new services and bug fixes.

Another StreamFab alternative is VideoHunter Video Downloader, which is available on Windows, Mac, and Android. Yes, it indeed has an original Android version. It offers a much cheaper price but fewer services are supported. Just like StreamFab, it also has an in-built browser for you to log into streaming sites and start to download videos easily.
Your anger might be triggered because even its free trial forcefully asks you to have a VideoHunter account first otherwise you can't start it. After finishing registration, you will find it actually unable to provide the best download resolution options. If you have superior needs for an ultimate offline viewing experience, for example, downloading videos on Disney+ in 1080p with Dolby Atmos, StreamFab is a way much better choice.

Audials One might be one of the most famous streaming service recorders. It can record videos in MP4/MKV/AVI on 46 video sites including OTT services such as Apple TV, or common video sites like TikTok. Moreover, this recorder has a unique record-speed boost technique which makes the recording only cost you half of the video time (a powerful PC required).
Although it has tried to avoid the common quality loss on a recording by AI enhance function, the result is getting worse with the random place of the video looking like an unconsolidated oil painting. Thus, in case you feel uncomfortable staring at the recorded movies by Audials One, try StreamFab to get better relaxing entertainment on both your mind and your body with lossless downloaded movies.

The last StreamFab alternative about to be introduced is MovPilot, a video downloader that can rip DRM-free movies from multiple OTT sites, including Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO, and others in MP4/MKV format with customizable video options.
Unfortunately, it rarely updates on functions or troubleshooting issues. Its output quality is not catching up to the average level of video downloaders nowadays. Furthermore, it had a serious download issue that all the downloads would stick at 10% and there was no way to solve it. This problem didn't show up in our recent tests but related feedback is increasing on Trustpilot.
