VidHub
VidHub is a media player and library app for Mac that helps you organize, stream, and watch personal video collections from local, network, and cloud sources.
What is VidHub?
VidHub is a video library and playback app for Mac focused on managing and watching personal movie and TV collections. It helps users browse local files, connect network shares, and access supported cloud storage and media servers from one library-style interface. The app supports a wide range of video formats, high-resolution playback, and subtitle options for users who want a more organized alternative to opening files one by one. Common use cases include streaming from SMB or WebDAV shares, linking Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby libraries, and keeping video access synced across Apple devices through iCloud. VidHub is available for Mac and also has versions for other Apple platforms, making it useful for people who watch across desktop, phone, tablet, and TV.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
VidHub is a media player, so access to video files, network locations, and connected cloud sources is consistent with what the app is built to do. If you connect personal media servers or cloud drives, the app may display library metadata and artwork alongside your files. Keep it if you use it for playback or library management, and review any connected accounts or folders if you no longer want the app to access that media.
Recommendation: Keep VidHub if you use it to manage or watch your video library on Mac. If you stop using it, you can remove the app and its related library data, but doing so may clear saved settings, connected sources, and local app metadata.
