Powered by JustWatch. Why you saved it - when you add a movie from For You, the recommendation reason ("Matched your Romance Mood") sticks with the item. Long-press any watchlist or list cell to see why it's there. Added Custom lists and Cleaner Watchlist - switched to a poster-grid layout that matches your custom lists. Easier to scan at a glance, time-bucket sections preserved. Critic's Pass redesign - fully monospaced editorial layout. Better memory handling - the app now stays lighter on RAM for power users with large journals and watchlists.
