### 1/5 — Why not load  fast is so slow

*2024-06-27*

When I downloaded this app yesterday I try again in the morning is very slow to watch movies you want to watch ?!?! Is most slowing thing bugs every

### 2/5 — Soooo slow

*2023-03-27*

I love the idea of this and really wanted it to work. But it was taking forever to load one or two movies at a time

### 3/5 — good

*2022-09-18, version 2.0*

pretty good but takes forever to load

### 3/5 — Like but not quite there yet

*2021-09-14, version 2.0*

Good idea, doesn’t show everyone the same films though, so never have any matches :/

### 1/5 — Crashed many times

*2021-05-12*

my app crashes on swipes, and sometimes the movies won’t load

### 3/5 — Fun concept but needs a little bit of work.

*2021-05-11*

I’m not sure if this app can distinguish premium pay Amazon movies from Amazon Prime Streaming movies. We matched on a movie that seemed to be on amazon but it only rentable which was a bummer to find out. Would be nice to have HBO Max inclusion too. Letterboxd scores would also be great to include. It would also be great to save your matches and get a transcript so you can refer to it at a later time with your friend in case you have multiple saved up. As the app is still in the early stages, I’ll still commend it on its neat concept. I hope we can refine it even more in the future. Any of the above suggestions I feel should take priority over its expansion into tv/food first but that’s just my entitlement talking.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2021-04-28, version 1.0*

There’s no up to date moves that I’ve come across yet and even though I’ve made an account it lost all the movies I swiped right on.. don’t bother yourselves with this awful app

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2021-04-28*

It’s perfect because I can never find a movie that someone else wants to watch.

### 1/5 — hmm

*2021-04-27, version 1.0*

found this app on tiktok and was very easy to sign up and the app was smooth, but it took forever to find movies for me to choose from and then it only gave me 2 movies. i couldn’t match with 2 movies?

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-04-26, version 1.0*

Great app! Works well. A few kinks but the creator says some of them will be worked out in future updates as isn’t very old yet (about a week at this point) can’t wait to see where this goes!
