Intelligence
The domain stremio.com was registered in 2005 and has remained under the same ownership for nearly two decades. Our antivirus network returned zero detections across 92 engines and the hosting IP shows no abuse history. The page itself presents a professional product site with download links, feature descriptions, and links to GitHub and app stores. Evidence from our research confirms Stremio Ltd operates the project from Bulgaria since 2015 and maintains both stremio.com and strem.io. One Reddit post flagged an unofficial third-party package as a scam, but this does not involve the official domain. The combination of long domain history, clean technical signals, and verifiable company registration outweighs the isolated third-party complaint.
Web Research Findings
Our live research agent queries scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, news coverage, and general web search for www.stremio.com, then cross-checks business-registration records and look-alike domain patterns. Everything below is pulled from what it actually found.
- Stremio is an open-source media center software that aggregates video content via a plugin/addon system.
- The domain stremio.com is the official landing page, while strem.io and web.stremio.com are also used for the service.
- The software itself is considered safe and malware-free, though users are warned that third-party community addons may link to pirated content.
- The project is maintained by Stremio Ltd, based in Bulgaria, and has been active since approximately 2015.
- Some users report 'malware' warnings on macOS, which are typically identified as false positives or related to the app's unsigned status/quarantine flags rather than actual malicious code.
- Reddit (r/Stremio)open
"We thus consider this attempt a scam and have removed the post... monetizing the Stremio platform / claiming ownership of the code written for this project is not permitted."
- Google Play Storeopen
"Probably the best and most useful app to have in your device. It's one of the apps I use on a daily basis especially on my Android TV for many years now."
- Trustpilotopen
"Stremio is a modern media center that gives you the freedom to watch everything you want. 4.2 star rating."
Operated by Stremio Ltd, a Bulgarian startup launched in 2015.
Our research found one Reddit post warning users about an unofficial WebOS package that attempted to monetize the Stremio platform. Two positive reviews were located on the Google Play Store and an independent review aggregator. Business records confirm Stremio Ltd operates as an active company in Bulgaria since 2015. The software itself is described as open-source and malware-free, though third-party addons may link to unauthorized content.

What to do
Still, stay alert
No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.
- Double-check the exact URL in your address bar
Confirm you are actually on www.stremio.com and not a lookalike like w-ww.stremio.com.com or an IDN homoglyph.
- Use a password manager
Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

Final Verdict
Stremio.com is the official landing page for the Stremio media center software. The domain is over 20 years old with clean scans and a Bulgarian company registration. Users should download directly from this site or official app stores.
Safety FAQ
Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.
- Our automated security review found no threat indicators on www.stremio.com, so it appears legitimate. All 92 antivirus engines we queried report it clean, and the domain is 20.7 years old, registered on November 15, 2005 — established domains are far less likely to be scams. Even so, always double-check the exact address in your browser, because phishing emails routinely spoof real, trusted domains like this one.
- www.stremio.com passed our automated checks with a trust score of 88/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged it at the time of the last scan, and its signals line up with an established, legitimate site. Treat any unexpected login prompt or payment request on it with the same caution you would anywhere.
- Yes — and this is worth understanding. Even trustworthy domains get spoofed in phishing emails (a fake message that only looks like it's from www.stremio.com), and legitimate sites are occasionally compromised on specific pages. A clean verdict means the site itself checks out today; it does not mean every email or link claiming to be from www.stremio.com is genuine. Always reach the site by typing the address yourself rather than clicking links in unexpected messages.
- No — all 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network currently report www.stremio.com as clean. That's a good sign, though antivirus coverage is only one of the many signals we weigh, and brand-new scam sites can appear clean before vendors catch up.
- No — www.stremio.com is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.
- www.stremio.com is 20.7 years old, registered on November 15, 2005 through Cloudflare, Inc.. A multi-year registration history is one of the stronger signals against a scam, though it's never a guarantee on its own — established domains can still be misused.
- Yes — www.stremio.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, valid for another 40 days. Important caveat: SSL only encrypts the connection between you and the site — it does not verify who runs it. Almost all scam sites now have valid SSL too, so a padlock alone never means "safe".
- www.stremio.com resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, Inc. in US (Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.
- This report is a record of the scan run on July 11, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about www.stremio.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
