Leave a Review Hallmark Movie Checklist
Unavailable Movies on the Checklist
I love most features of this app, but as of the current version 2.4.3 I do have a couple of issues.
1. There are a couple of movies in the Bonus Original section that have never aired. Would be nice if these would either be taken off, or if you could actually air the episodes on either Hallmark Channel or Hallmark Movies & Mysteries.
2. When a bunch of old movies are added to the checklist, it would be helpful if these movies are actually going to air and on the correct channel. For example, two movies “Christmas with Tucker” and “Angel of Christmas” are listed in the Miracles of Christmas list that’s supposed to air on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, actually have/will air on the Hallmark Drama channel instead, which is a channel I don’t have access to in my cable package.Show lessActuary44

Hello, thanks so much for your review. You can find out future air dates of movies by tapping into that movie in the app. If no air date is listed, the movie currently does not have an upcoming air date. We hope this helps! Thanks again for your feedback!So frustrated by this years’ app!
I really loved the Checklist feature last year. I record a lot of the premiers and watch them when I want but I can’t for the life of me figure out where to find the premiers that have already aired in the checklist to mark that I’ve watched them or even see what they are anymore! I saved a photo of the full checklist for the 10th anniversary Countdown to Christmas and
Miracles of Christmas and I keep having to go back to those photos to track the movies I’ve watched. Also- having all the movies is so overwhelming. I put in settings I only wanted the premiers and it keeps showing all 96 movies.
The stories are cool up too and the linking to my calendar and the previews but I’d rather have a better tracking function than all those new bells and whistles.Show lessgigeuiffghhdxvhhjbcdc
So awful and frustrating
I miss last years version. I hate that they lump all years of the Christmas movies together. I want to see this years movies! And when a movie has premiered you can’t find it easily to see when it’s being replayed or check it off. So frustrating not being able to find a simple list of this years movies without going through every movie they’ve made.
The IG story knock off at the top is also not the best. On what is playing that night put the year of the movie on it! I don’t know If it’s this years that I missed or one from three years ago.
All I want is just a simple check list of 2019 movies where I can see when they will be replayed and mark them off without digging around.Show lessNicwess525
Great app I just have one suggestion
I love using this app to keep track of the Christmas movies I watch. I just find myself hunting for the one I just watched or wondering what is on. It would be very helpful if movies that are on the day I access the app had some distinguishing feature like they are outlined in a color or marked with a different color dot then the one that shows I put them in my calendar. For some reason today I came across two-three movies that were on but never appeared in my calendar even though I marked them as ones I wanted to watch and in my calendar. If those movies were highlighted I would of noticed one of the many times I looked at my app that those movies could of been watched today. Also, for the ones I do know are coming on, I like to look at the preview to see which one I would like to watch if there is a conflict and they are hard to find in the list of 96 or 81. If they were noticeable as ones coming on today I would of been able to locate them without a problem to check out the previews.Show lessgold n treasure

Hello, thanks so much for your review. Your suggestion to mark which movies are showing that day is great! We'll be sure to keep this in mind for future updates to the app. In the meantime, you can use the Search function in the app as a way to find movies and their trailers quickly and easily. We hope this helps! Thanks again for your feedback.Great app if you follow ALL of the Hallmark movies
Not so great, if like me, you are only interested in one of their movie groups. I only do mysteries on Hallmark...watched my first Jesse Stone movie on Hallmark. Only one group of movies interests me...the signature mystery movie series.
There apparently is no way to hide series/movies that you are not interested in. I have marked the mystery movies I’ve watched and those I want to see. Those don’t have their own “place”—to see them I have to scroll through all the series that don’t interest me to get to the ones that do...even in the “want list”.
I understand the desire to have users aware of the other series offered but why annoy prospective viewers by forcing us to scroll through uninteresting things to get to what we are interested in. I’m adult enough to look for something different when I’m in the mood for something different—I don’t need suggestions crammed down my throat.Show lessSR_97355

Hello! Thanks for your review. We are constantly looking for ways to improve the app, so we will be sure to keep your experience in mind for future updates. Adding extra categories within the Signature Movies group (e.g, Aurora Teagarden, Murder She Baked) is something we're looking to add to the app in the future, so keep an eye out for future updates! Thanks again for taking the time to send us your feedback!Sync over multiple devices?
I love this app and subtracted a star for one reason: I own multiple Apple devices. I use the app on 2 of my 3 iPads (the third is too old), but NOT yet on my iPhone or iPod Touch. (Once I realized it didn’t sync, I chose not to add it onto a third device.) But I wish when I made a selection/update on one iPad, it would sync with the other. I realize this may require signing into a server - or otherwise identifying the user in some way - but it would sure save time “manually synchronizing” the iPads each time I make changes on one - and want the two to match. Also, I especially like to keep track of which movies we’ve already watched. The more movies you’ve seen, the harder it is to remember. I surely hope when I mark a movie “watched” it saves it forever - even while the movie is removed from the app, temporarily. Otherwise, it kind of defeats the purpose.Show lessLYAppleUser

Hello! Thanks so much for your review. User accounts/logins is something we’re looking to introduce in the future, so please keep an eye on new updates coming up. Thanks again for getting in touch!Nice job on the update
Took me a little bit to figure out the new navigation, but you did a great job of getting the suggested changes in the app. I know some long hours went into figuring it all out. So kudos to those who worked on this.
Now the trick will be keeping it updated in a timely manner as the new movies come out.
Am curious - does Hallmark get feedback from this app? If so I’d like to be able to rate the new movies on a scale from 1 - 5. Also might be interesting to track how many times a movie has been watched by the same person. On second thought it might be too easy for someone to screw the numbers
Anyway thanks again for the updateShow lessNavyne
Love the concept - Needs more follow through
Love the entire concept behind this app! I think it’s great that each group of movies stays in the app, this way if you miss a movie then you can find out when/if it will be on again even after that season is technically over.
My biggest pet peeve is that it just isn’t updated BEFORE a new group of movies starts. Take the current set of May movies - they started last night (5/4/19), but the app has not been updated to include this set yet.
A suggestion for the mystery movies: For the sets that have so many in them, like the Aurora Teagarden and Hailey Dean ones, why not put those in their own groups? Why do all of the mysteries have to be in 1 group together? That group is getting incredibly large.
Another suggestion: Maybe have the opening screen of the app be pictures of all the different movie groups rather than to immediately open to the most current movie group? This way the user can easily see everything that the app has to offer rather then just one small section of it.Show lessEquineHunt
New Hallmark season & missing data again
Once again Hallmark starts a new season, “Countdown to Summer” and it is not included in the checklist app. How are we supposed to check-off/find movies if they don’t exist. Why do the developers not know what Hallmark is doing? A check list is useless if there’s nothing to check. And again I would like to request both a search feature and alphabetical listing. It is extremely annoying to have to switch in and out of each list trying to find a movie that you have no idea where it is located. What a waste of time. Finally, why is there no way to contact Hallmark on a website? Geez!Show lessglenng666
Love Lists
I was very excited when this app came out in time for Countdown to Christmas. I was even more excited you expanded it to include Winterfest, Countdown to Valentines Day and Hallmark Movies and Mysteries. I enjoy these lists including the preview, when it’s playing and if you missed it, when it’s playing next. Spring Fever is next and I’m hoping we will have a new list for it and all the other movies going forward. “Love Under the Rainbow” isn’t on any list so far so I’m hoping it will get added to one. To really make this app even better, I think we should be able to keep track of our own reviews of the movie. For the last several years, I have kept a running list of every single Hallmark movie I have ever watched. I have it divided out by the year it was released, the title and my rating. I intend to watch every one of them ever made. I think it is fun and challenging to check a new one off the list in the app. I hope one day this app will list all of your movies ever made and we can check it off and review it. When that happens my rating will change from 4 to 5.Show lessBoolovinlife
