We double checked our settings to make sure we had the right streaming services selected. We have five streaming services and none of them supported the 10 movies we matched on. So, it’s a great idea, but not useful in application. Also the descriptions aren’t consistent. ### 1/5 — Only works for couples *2024-03-01, version 1.4.0* You can’t use the app by yourself, I wanted to use it as a sort of movie “tinder” to figure out which movie to watch but you can’t even browse movies without someone else using it with you. Would be a great app if you could use it yourself (and link it Letterboxd) that would be sick. ### 3/5 — Needs a link letterboxd, IMDB or serilized option *2023-10-15, version 1.4.0* its cool but it'd be nice to link my letterboxd so it already knows the 400+ movies I've seen recently and doesnt keep recommending me stuff i watched a week before making the account. ### 3/5 — I have two partners 😮‍💨 *2023-09-03, version 1.4.0* I don’t see any option for having more than one partner ### 2/5 — Useless until partner joins *2023-06-30, version 1.4.0* Useless until partner joins ### 2/5 — Fail *2022-06-13, version 1.3.1* I thought this was supposed to find shows based on our available subscriptions. So why does it recommend matches for a movie not even available on ANY service and only to “Rent or Buy.” Please fix this FAIL asap. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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 ### 1/5 — Have to sign up *2025-01-07, version 1.6.1* Asks way too many unnecessary, personal details during sign up so we refuse to use. ### 1/5 — Says “no more suggestions” after a few dozen films *2024-10-26, version 1.5.0* I had high hopes for this but it’s disappointing - we swiped on a few dozen films and got a couple of matches but now it just says “no more suggestions” even after we both do more of the quick rating. ### 1/5 — Has potential but is broken *2024-07-30, version 1.4.0* App looked great but did not show any pictures with the movies! Waste of my time ### 1/5 — Why do you need my personal data? *2024-07-22, version 1.4.0* Didn’t even get past the AppStore before realising this app wants your name, email address, and phone number for just about every conceivable purpose. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on android *2024-03-24, version 1.4.0* Yes, I know I’m leaving this review on the apple App Store, but my partner uses Android and we are unable to match. Looks like there’s some kind of glitch that he can’t get past. Great potential for an app - sad to see that the last update was a year ago. Would also be great just for yourself or with multiple friends ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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. ### 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 ### 5/5 — Great *2025-02-07, version 1.6.1* Made finding a movie super easy! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-01-17, version 1.6.1* Great app, doesn’t throw a pop up ad every 30 seconds and has great recommendations, just found a movie to watch with my fiancé in 2 minutes, was able to watch the trailer and see where it was streaming so easily, I hope they never change it. 10/10! ### 5/5 — Text code *2024-11-03* Tried the text code for too long before realizing it doesn’t work outside the USA. Would be nice if it told me that on the page, rather than making me go to FAQs. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-02-17, version 1.4.0* It’s incredibly well made for its function, really enjoy using this and it’s extremely useful. It includes reviews, ratings and biographies for movies, which a lot of other of these types of apps don’t have. The watchlist and all the other features too are super useful and great to have. ### 5/5 — Movie nights just got easier! *2023-03-30, version 1.4.0* We love this! My wife and I started using this to decide what to watch, and it’s made it so much easier. ### 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 ### 4/5 — Great, I have suggestions though *2025-01-12, version 1.6.1* This app is awesome for finding new shows and it worked well, but there should be an option for how many partners you have, because of polyamory, and there should be a single option, where you can just kind of find a new show to watch without a partner. Overall, these are just suggestions, love the app though! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
