Good overall

As someone with over 400 movies on my watchlist, I would love a feature that would help ease my indecision - something as simple as a randomizer would allow me to quickly pick something to watch, instead of becoming overwhelmed by too many choices. Just a thought, devs.

How to ruin a good thing

Been using this app for over a decade and have loved it but the recent update to how ads are displayed is so gross, and a constant reminder that everything needs to make money. The ads are now pop ups that cover the whole display. One showing up just for me opening the app. Letterboxd will go down as another example of how to ruin a good thing.

LOVE IT

I LOVE LETTERBOX SO MUCH I wish we could add more movies to our favorite list tho because I have so many favorite movies but you can only add 4 😔 but other then that ITS SO GOOD

serieslvr

great just add series as well. really annoying when I want to create a watch list for movies and series but have t use a different app, thinking to switch over to another app actually but other than that its great. Just ADD SERIES.

amazing

I think this is actually my most used app and i will say that proudly. Only thing i think could be better is the price of patron it is ridiculous saying that as if I’m not getting it for Christmas.

Liking comments

Please, don’t make me have to open individual reviews in order to give them a like!! 🙏 Put the like button next to the list of movie reviews

Broken Apple TV Trailers

Please fix the ability to watch trailers through the Apple TV version of the app. It hasn’t worked in months.

quarter stars

give me quarter stars ❤️ Please Now 😢😢 👊😡🙁

Annoying interface

User friendliness level: I’ve been trying to find the likes section for 10 minutes now

Adding and Following friends

Why is adding and following friends like goddamn rocket science in this app.

if this app ever goes away, so will i

i genuinely dont know what i would do without this app. at the end of every movie i watch my fingers start twiddling ready to enter my thoughts on letterboxd. before this i had endless notes on my phone now my storage is free and i can see everything at a glance. no more asking my friends have you seen this movie? i can just go look on letterboxd, i want to give the creator of this app a kiss. i am barking like a dog as the year nears the end, highly anticipating my letterboxd wrapped.

I love this app

thank you letterboxd, you make me love films more. recently drama series are also added, which is so good.

Sign in issue

Using this app for past 4 years didn’t get any issues but for last two years it automatically sign out without my concern and I reset my password for almost 15 times a day to sign in there is no response

so many ads I deleted

I couldn't stand the sheer amount of ads: full screen pop ups, floating video players, embedded ads that float on scroll - and all of them with jarring visual movement and high contrast, no way to report an ad for flashing images or at all. I understand I can pay to remove the ads but I'm just deleting the app because I'm so frustrated.

App bugs? Phone overheats

The app seemed great but only for about 10mins. After that I noticed my phone getting very hot. Tried again later but overheating happened again. Haven’t experienced that with any other app, so I’ve deleted it. No problems since.

Trash UX

I can’t believe how bad the UX is. Can’t even find my own watch history smh. For such a popular app, you would think they would pay someone to fix it?

Erro de Suporte do aplicativo

Cara, eu realmente amo o letterbox, mas desde ontem a minha conta desconectou e eu não consigo mais logar, quando eu tento, fica constando erro humano. Se puderem, entre em contato, isso está me deixando chateada real…

Ad cannot be removed

I understand having ads but why do you have one that’s literally in the way and cannot be cancelled out of the screen? It literally blocks my list.

favoriting reviews

i wish there was a feature where you could favorite reviews like how you can favorite comments on tiktok
