Bug fixes and updates

User reviews

Used to be good but not now.

This app used to be great. Giving the rundown on films & what it contains.

Now for some reason, it won’t set up & NEEDS a person’s location? Something is not right! It should give film information as before without the BS 😡

Location Services?

Apparently, you can no longer use the app unless you allow location services. So it is now literally useless to me :-(

helpful guide to figuring out if things are appropriate for certain people

thanks because I am not allowed to play explicit games on console or mobile except thers no guide to moblie game age ratings

Under The Rainbow (1981) Is Needed To Be 12

I Heard On The Film’s Trailer At Apple TV That A Black Woman Was Chasing Two Men On A Cart With Something That Probably Belongs To Her. While She Is Chasing She Says Two Single Uses Of Strong Language In Her Sentences.

This Film Has To Be 12 Because Of That Scene & Of Course It Is Classified PG On Apple TV.

Another Thing: Cool Hand Luke (1967) Was Mistakenly Rated PG On Apple TV Even Though It Is Classified 15 On The Website & On Home Video. Can You Ask Apple TV To Re-Rate The Apple TV Version From PG To 15 Please?

Also: Bandolero! (1968) Needs To Be Re-Classified From 15 To 12 Because It Has Moderate Violence. Moderate Violence Is Suitable For PG & 12 But Does “Bandolero!” (1968) Have Too Much Moderate Violence? The Same Question Goes For “Suicide Squad” (2016).

BBFC app no longer shows content advice for some media.

This is an overall good app, however after updating content advice for some types of media, such as video games, is no longer viewable. It would be nice to have access to the content advice available again.
