### 2/5 — Watchlist not working

*2026-06-09, version 3.0.8*

The app is actually wonderful there is just one problem.  Whenever i add movies into my watch list and refresh it takes them out which is really frustrating.

### 2/5 — Dissapointing

*2026-04-03*

This app has a brilliant concept, and a rudimentary functionality. The “lists” that your swipng on are essentially just the most popular movies that (I presume) are available on your streaming services. It also ignored my genre preferences. It just kept throwing out the most popular movies out there and theres nothing personal to you that its going to suggest to you. It’s just their list of movies. It’s not learning what you do and don’t like. 

If you’re using this app it’s probably because you’re like me and you’re having trouble finding good movies to watch after watching all the best movies. You don’t need to be told that the best movies in the world exist because you’ve probably already seen them. Also I paid for the “premium” subscription just to run out of movies suggestions and the app said “come back later for another list”…uuuuuuh??? Did I not just pay for a service? That’s like buying a meal and while you’re still eating the waiter walks up, takes your plate and says “finish your food later”. I am however optimisitic that this app can be great. I just hope the developers keep working it to make it more advanced and worthwhile for the consumer.

### 4/5 — Comment

*2026-03-16, version 3.0.6*

Please Add a way for us to add comments , it would make the experience better.

### 1/5 — This app sucks

*2026-03-13, version 3.0.5*

This app literally doesnt give me directions on how to see the movie it keeps giving me dumb trailers pur directions now.

### 1/5 — Not worth paying for.

*2026-03-05, version 3.0.5*

This app is hard to use and not worth the money. If you pay weekly it’s a total waste and if you pay yearly you will likely forget and be charged year after year.

### 1/5 — Money Grab

*2026-03-05*

This is a great app idea, but it’s a scam to charge for its use. The review says that it charges for premium features but has a free version available. That’s a lie, the free version is basically unusable. This could be very utilize able if you made it free! Give the people what they want

**Developer response:** Hi there, 
Thank you for your feedback. I understand your frustration regarding the subscription model. Our goal is to provide a free version of the app with essential features, while the subscription offers additional tools and capabilities for those who want to enhance their experience. We appreciate your support and hope you find value in the features available in the free version. If you have any specific suggestions or concerns, please update your review so we can help. Best, Mau

### 1/5 — “free” trial

*2026-03-03, version 3.0.4*

they said they would give me a free 1 week trial followed by 7.99/week but when I clicked accept, I noticed right after I confirmed it that it wasn’t free and they stole my 8 dollars…

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2026-02-06, version 3.0.2*

Not very good to say the least

### 1/5 — RIP OFFF

*2026-02-04, version 3.0.2*

Currently waiting for apple support to reach back out to me, I accidentally forgot about it and it ended up charging me for a week , I promptly cancelled the subscription and deleted the app. Here I am a week later and it charged me AGAIN! I had no choice but to pay it because I couldn’t even update apps due to the due balance. Very frustrating! No way to even cancel things on the app end either that I could see

### 1/5 — Remove the pay wall.

*2026-02-02, version 3.0.1*

I would gladly watch ads but will never pay 8$ a week for something I can easily do for free online

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-01-10, version 3.0.1*

About as helpful as scrolling the explore page on any streaming platform. Not intuitive, very basic recommendations.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-01-03, version 3.0.1*

Downloaded it. Saw it charges you. Deleted it

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-11-26, version 2.5.39*

Took £6.99 from my account without approval everyweek

### 1/5 — All movies in the same order

*2025-11-15, version 2.5.39*

This could be a great app, but all movies in the appear in the same order for each matching session. So if you are playing with the same person you need to go through and the same movies in the same order again. I guess it works once

### 1/5 — Scam and fraud

*2026-08-29, version 3.0.12*

So let me get something straight this app cost $8 a week, and is trash. Don’t do the free trial unless you really love the app because you’ll be stuck in Apple debt trying to pay it back even tho i cancelled it right after. HORRIBLE APP

### 1/5 — See it to believe it

*2026-08-04*

All of the reviews that brought up how absurd the cost of the app seemed valid. $8 seems like an arbitrary number that the developers felt an easy way to make their money or something like that. I still wanted to give the free version a try. I agree with everyone else, even if there were ads, I’m sure it’d be alright. Couldn’t even get into the app without agreeing to the 3 day free trial. Developers lost the plot and are playing ignorant to why their tactics are not well received. Immediately uninstalled after not even being able to try without unnecessarily  agreeing to something.

**Developer response:** Hi! :), we appreciate your feedback regarding the cost and free trial experience. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. We will take your comments into consideration for future updates. If you have any further concerns, please contact us at itsart.developer@gmail.com. Thank you for trying out Movie Night. - Adele

### 1/5 — Not what I expected

*2026-04-08, version 3.0.6*

It said free and I have to pay money? Rip off!!

### 1/5 — Subscription service

*2026-03-24, version 3.0.6*

Free trial and then you have to pay a subscription. Doesn’t seem like something I’d pay $8/ month for especially since you can get free recs/picks online.
