History
The service started as Media Express and was created to be distinguishable towards other streaming services by offering content other than films and shows and to make it available free of charge with no requirement of a subscription to access them. This was a part of a plan by Clever to embrace streaming as the new medium for content delivery compared to traditional cable and satellite television broadcasting, resulting in the closure of WebiousSitious TV and cancelling the upcoming TV channel Picx, as well as the shutdown of Clever Television Group.

When Media Express launched, it was originally operated by Clever Digital Services until 11 July 2020 when they merged with Max Andrew Distribution to form Clever Worldwide, with Clever Interactive taking over operations instead.

Its subscription was originally called the “VIP Pass”.

On 13 April 2023, Clever announced that Media Express was being rebranded as Medior with its subscription the VIP Pass renaming to Medior Deluxe.

Platforms
Medior is available for web browsers, mobile operating systems like iOS and Android, video game consoles like PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch, and smart TVs and streaming boxes.

Due to Apple‘s policy over each game needing to be reviewed and published as a separate app, the iOS version of the app does not feature retro games.

For video game consoles, there are 3 separate apps of Medior due to video game rating policies: "Medior" for content excluding retro games, "Medior: Games" for all of the retro games on the service, and "Medior: Family Games" featuring only games appropriate for children.
