### 3/5 — Meh

*2026-05-09, version 1.6.1*

Search function is quite bad

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2026-01-30, version 1.6.1*

My wife and I simply don’t want movies or shows together. We never agree on anything in the moment. Now two days in we have a page of shows we have both marked as matches. The program does a good job of presenting things your spouse would like and you might. It’s subtle and effective.

### 1/5 — Do NOT Download!

*2025-11-19, version 1.6.1*

I used a few of these type apps this one is definitely the worst. worst app I’ve ever owned.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2025-10-27, version 1.6.1*

Shows films/shows on platforms you don’t have.

### 1/5 — 👎🏼

*2025-10-13, version 1.6.1*

horrible app

### 1/5 — buggy

*2025-06-07, version 1.6.1*

low quality

### 1/5 — Scam app

*2025-05-31, version 1.6.1*

Only wants you to input phone no. or email without being able to sign in…..don’t bother

### 5/5 — Fantastic App, saves relationships

*2025-05-20, version 1.6.1*

This is the best movie picking assistant for couples who can’t decide what to watch. Removes the endless, “What do you wanna watch? I picked last time.” It shows movies that don’t appear on your normal streaming suggestions, and the more movies you swipe left or right on, the better the suggestions get.

### 5/5 — No way

*2025-02-23, version 1.6.1*

I actually was able to find a movie we both wanted to watch never thought it would happen in 1 million years

### 4/5 — Shows a disproportionate amount of B/C-movies

*2025-02-15, version 1.6.1*

Fun app, and it works well, but the vast majority of movie suggestions you get are ones you’ve never heard of, and/pr lower quality B or C-movies. I wouldn’t mind seeing more mainstream/blockbuster movies to rate
