### 5/5 — New feature

*2026-08-19*

This is far better than any other TV show rating app out there. The analytics they give and the ability to rate per season, per episode, comment on each individually. The UI is just incredible and very easy and intuitive.
Can we have a button to tally how many times we have seen a certain episode?

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-08-17*

Amazing app, exactly what I was looking for, to be able to rate movies and TV show shows in the same app from 1-10. The only downside for now is that some movies that I wanted to rank just aren’t in there, letterbox for example is much less of a problem for that.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-08-15, version 3.4.2*

They should add video game rankings to this app

### 3/5 — Idea?

*2026-08-14, version 3.4.2*

Add a watchlist, when rating movies if i havent seen it but i wanna see it i want to add it to a list so i can watch and rate later.

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2026-08-06, version 3.4.2*

This is far better than any other TV show rating app out there. The analytics they give and the ability to rate per season, per episode, comment on each individually. The UI is just incredible and very easy and intuitive.

### 5/5 — Major issue ruins the app for me

*2026-08-01*

Great app other than the fact that I can’t see what all my friends ranked an individual app. I can’t see their average on every movie, but I can’t see a list of rankings which seems to be a major mistake and defeats the purpose of the app for me

**Developer response:** Hey! Every friend’s average shows up on every movie and show, right next to the app-wide average. Shoot me an email at james@circleranks.com let’s touch base I want to make sure it’s working for you!

### 5/5 — A+

*2026-07-27, version 3.4.1*

Brilliant platform with a great UX. App creators are responsive and interactive with the community.

### 5/5 — Letterboxd who?

*2026-07-23, version 3.4.1*

This is 10x superior to Letterboxd and legitimately sets a new standard for reviewing apps as a whole. I’ve wanted an app like this for years and CircleRanks finally delivers.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-23*

Love the rating system, also like I can rank each tier which are broken up by decimal points. It gives you a running all time list of movies. I also love the subcategories rankings, I pull this app first when ever I watch a new movie

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2026-07-22, version 3.4.0*

pretty good alternativd to IMDB i like it easy ways fo rank and all that
