## What is Friday?

Friday is a recommendation app for rating what you've watched and deciding what to watch next. Rate movies and TV shows and Friday builds a taste profile from what you actually like, then uses it to recommend titles worth your time.

RECOMMENDATIONS THAT KNOW YOU
Every rating sharpens your taste profile, and your home feed updates with picks built just for you.

SCORE PREDICTIONS
Before you choose what to watch, Friday shows you a score — a prediction of how much you'll like a title based on your taste profile.

TWO WAYS TO RATE
Quick rate in two taps – Loved it, Liked it, or Not for me. Or use comparisons to place a title head-to-head against ones you've already seen for a more precise score.

FIND WHERE TO WATCH
Search every streaming service and the box office in one place, see what's just been released, and check where a title is available before you commit to it.

FOLLOW & WATCH WITH FRIENDS
A feed of what your friends rated, watchlisted, and want to watch next. Message them directly to swap recommendations. Filter recommendations by who's on the couch to find something you'll all agree on.

KEEP A WATCHLIST & DIARY
Queue anything from anywhere in the app to watch later, and keep a viewing diary of everything you've watched on your profile.

BRING YOUR HISTORY
Import your movie ratings directly from your Letterboxd account to bring your taste profile with you.

Friday is free to join and ad-free.

### 5/5 — Finally solves the “what should we watch?” problem

*2026-09-06*

I especially like the social side of it. Seeing what people you know are watching and recommending makes the suggestions feel much more useful than a generic algorithm. It’s a simple idea, but it solves a problem my wife and I run into all the time. Definitely worth trying if you spend too much time deciding what to watch next.

### 5/5 — Fun app

*2026-09-06*

The app knows my movie taste better than myself! The For You rating the app has given me on movies have been closer than my own expectations of how much I’m going to like a movie I’m about to watch. It’s also a fun app to see what your friends have watched, the ratings they’ve given to a movie and how different or similar your tastes are!

### 5/5 — Movie buffs dream

*2026-09-06*

Addicted to this app, no more writing down movies I want to watch in my notes app, and the algo really gets me movie recs on point!

### 5/5 — Best tv and movie ratings

*2026-09-06*

I’ve been using Friday for a week now and it’s great when you can’t decide what to watch on a Friday or any other night!

### 5/5 — Where has this app been all my life

*2026-09-06*

It’s like a hybrid Beli x Goodreads but for movies and shows I’m OBSESSSED. It gives pretty good recs and I can see what my friends are rating and queuing so it helps me find new things to watch rather than doom scroll through my Apple TV.

### 5/5 — Just what I’ve been looking for!!!

*2026-09-01*

Finally an app that can give me good new recommendations for shows and movies to watch!! I’ve discovered so many good things to watch and some I hadn’t even heard of before. Also amazingly helpful to find something to watch with hubby as we can never decide on something that will satisfy us both! 10/10 app - would give it 6 stars if I could!
