Not what it used to be

I would like the app developers to comment on what is going on. It seems like the what’s new sections haven’t been updated since February and the Trending sections aren’t very current either. I really used it to keep up with what not to miss and what’s new. I’m sad. I also don’t like how you can’t share your lists with friends so they can see what I am watching and vice versa. All I can really do now is keep lists. I used to use Likewise for:

✅ Tracking what you’ve watched
✅ Maintaining a Want to Watch list
✅ Getting recommendations
✅ Seeing what’s new on Netflix, BritBox, PBS, etc.
✅ Following friends’ activity
✅ Sharing watchlists

And now, from your perspective it doesn’t have


❌ Up-to-date recommendations
❌ Current streaming updates
❌ Social watchlist sharing
❌ Following friends’ watch activity

Super slow and my lists aren’t loading

Exactly as the title says…

Stopped working

App stopped working now for days. Contacted support and received no reply.

Fun but frustrating

I use this app mostly for keeping track of what I’ve watched/read. The ads that take up the entire screen while I’m in the middle of doing something is diabolical. The app also stops my music because it’s trying to play audio from trailers. Since I don’t use the app for much besides logging the media I’ve consumed, I can’t speak on anything else. I don’t remember there being such annoying ad placements when I downloaded this a couple years (?) ago. Thanks for considering.

They made it bad on purpose

I got this app very shortly after it came out. I actually think I signed up for it before it was fully an app. It worked great at that time because I needed space on my phone. I got rid of it. but then decided to re-download today with the expectation it would be the same as it was. Boy was, I disappointed! You can no longer search for recommendations other people have asked for and now our prompted to ask for your own recommendations, only to be told you have to pay for “more responses”

It’s disappointing because this used to be a very functional database for users to find books that were like other books they liked. They clearly have updated their software to make the user experience, actively negative unless you pay money. Good thing there’s 100 other competitors out there. lol as if Goodreads and Reddit didn’t exist. It is disappointing to see a good app. Go bad though.
