## What is Gizmo?

Gizmo is a social app for discovering TV & Movies.  You receive personalized recommendations for You, friends groups, and from others with similar taste.  We bring all streaming apps into one place, learn your taste, and then send you personalized TV & movies to watch.

If you watch TV & movies with friends and family, create a group to get recommendations that are a match for everyone's taste.  Or you can easily send recs to one another and see if everyone in the group wants to watch it.

But what if your friends and family don't have good taste in TV & movies?!  We got you!  We match you with users with similar taste, show you what they like, plus any reviews, polls, and audio stories they create, so you can easily discover from people like you.

Once you find something you like you just watch the trailer, find where to stream it, and start streaming on the streaming app of your choice!

### 5/5 — AMAZING APP

*2023-02-25*

This app finds all your interest and helps you pick out great movies. When I put mine in I forgot to put in some movies but they knew I was interested in the ones I did put in. It showed them there. I recommend this app 100% it’s the best app I ever downloaded.

For some strange reason I cant watch what I want to.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2023-01-16, version 3.1.3*

How to watch the movies

### 1/5 — really bad

*2022-07-08, version 2.0.2*

unusable, buggy, really ugly, and pointless. not sure why this exists or what they were thinking. deleting byeeee

### 5/5 — Best app to find shows to watch

*2022-06-21, version 2.0.1*

Gizmo recommended me three great movies I would have otherwise never watched

### 1/5 — Needs Improvement

*2022-04-16, version 1.8.5*

App doesn’t work right sometimes

### 1/5 — Not worth your time

*2021-02-24, version 1.0.2*

What’s the point? It has potential but really it’s pretty useless. You’re better off googling “popular movies” and going from that list.
