### 4/5 — Good but could use a few tweaks

*2022-10-30*

It’d be super convenient if you could add a show to multiple lists at once!

### 4/5 — Pretty good, but…

*2022-07-28*

For the most part it works as promised. There was a couple obscure things it couldn’t find that I know are available. However, the one problem I really have with it is the search. Every time you type in an additional letter the search results change. However, even when it finds what you are looking for, if you happen to type one additional letter it will then disappear and be replaced by unrelated things. So it’s easy to miss what you are looking for because it popped up and then popped away so quickly because you didn’t know which letter you’re supposed to stop typing at. That doesn’t really make any sense and I shouldn’t not be able to find something because I typed too much of the title.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! This is the first time we have had a user experience this issue. Please message us at support@qewd.co so we can better understand the issue you had with search. Also, you do have the ability to keep all of your lists / information private. Every list has the option of being public or private. Your Qewd folder - the default one we create for you - is private by default. Would love for you to write us so we can better understand the issues you've had and we can resolve them in future builds.

### 4/5 — Add Writers

*2022-07-21*

Love what this app is doing. I’d suggest adding Writers to Movies. Cinephiles don’t just explore directors’ filmographies. We also want to see what other Fredric Raphael or Robert Towne movies are streaming (to give two examples). Great to have a reliable source for locating streaming movies/shows. Opening up the credits beyond Actor/Director would be a savvy, useful move.

**Developer response:** This is a wonderful suggestion! We agree. We will be adding writers and producers in the very near future.

### 5/5 — BEST APP EVER

*2022-07-13*

What a great app. There is so much to watch out there, QWED does an amazing job breaking down what is actually most interesting for me to watch. Awesome app!!!

### 5/5 — Time Saver

*2022-07-13*

Time is money. And I don’t have time to waste thinking about what I want to watch when dinner arrives. With Qewd, I’m able to quickly find something of quality to watch from either my saved lists or recommendations from my friends. It even shows me which of my streaming services it is available on which saves me a ton of time going through each apps subpar ‘recommended lists’. I love Qewd!!!

### 5/5 — Like spotify for tv / movies

*2022-07-11, version 1.0.2*

Cool app for discovering new stuff to watch. Has a bunch of free live tv channels on there too.

### 5/5 — the APP I needed!

*2022-07-07*

Seriously been saying for years how do I get all my favorite media from all platforms on one list - not just movies and tv but my Commercials and music videos, short films. An amazing source for creatives!

### 5/5 — A much needed app for parents…

*2022-06-30*

No more trying to remember which streaming service a show is on. Now I just save to my liked shows and I don’t have to hunt for shows that my kids like to watch.

### 5/5 — THIS APP DOES SO MUCH   ​  ‍

*2022-06-28, version 1.0.56*

My biggest problem is sifting through all the content out there to find something I'm interested in. Everybody has algorithms that make recommendations, and so does Qewd. But Qewd also has real recommendations from actual human beings who I know and whose opinions I respect. Sometimes, a friend will tell me I should watch something, but I forget what it is. If they're on Qewd, all I have to do is look at their list.

### 5/5 — Love it​

*2022-06-26, version 1.0.56*

QEWD works really well. I can find great shows o watch on all my subscription services as well as free services that I didn't even know existed. It's going to be my ultimate TV companion‌       ‌

### 1/5 — Do not use this app

*2022-12-21*

When I read some of the reviews I thought it would be a good thing to get for my movie night but when I try to chose a movie it tried to send me to the app that it was on! So do not use it it’s a waste of time and storage!

### 1/5 — Should not require a phone number to use!

*2022-07-30, version 1.0.3*

Love the promise of the app, but even when using a Google login it requires a phone number. The app should not need this to function. The developer responded saying this was more secure than a username and password, but this again should not be necessary when authenticating with Google or other services.  I’d love to give it a try, but remove the phone requirement first.

### 1/5 — Requires Your Phone Number

*2022-07-23*

Immediately deleted this app as it requires your phone number. It will not let you use the app without giving the company your telephone number—why?

UPDATE: the app developer responded, lying in the process. The developer could have used “Sign in with Apple” login functionality, which would not require our telephone number. Instead they chose not to, saying telephone numbers are the standard way of logging in now, which is deceitful.

**Developer response:** We want you to know that your feedback is important to us and we heard you. You can now download and onboard QEWD without having to provide a phone number. Thank you again for your feedback.

### 1/5 — Mobile phone number required.

*2022-07-22, version 1.0.2*

I have no idea if this is a good or bad app. All I know is they require your mobile phone number to sign in, and I don't give that out to anyone outside my small circle of friends and family. Period.

### 1/5 — Invasive

*2022-07-22*

What  mysterious in-app “update” did you just install on my phone after I downloaded the latest version from the App Store? Why do you need all conceivable personal information (email auth, phone number verification) just to let me see whether your app does what your marketing promises it does? No thanks, deleted immediately.

### 1/5 — Account required

*2022-07-21, version 1.0.2*

This app requires an account to use. Period. 

Why? Why can’t I even try it to see if I like it first?

Deleted. Will try to find something else that doesn’t require me to sign up first.

### 1/5 — Requires phone number

*2022-07-21, version 1.0.2*

No, you cannot have my phone number. Rethink this policy andI’ll sign up, but not until then.

### 1/5 — blah

*2022-07-12, version 1.0.2*

better alternatives out there, not sure what they were thinking

### 3/5 — Seems good, but a little lacking

*2025-04-05*

The app is a little too touch sensitive and the layout needs adjusting for iPhone 15 Plus as the top part is blocked off which makes going back hard. But other than that it seems good. It’s a little lacking compared to other apps similar to it.

### 4/5 — Good but docent have all steaming services

*2023-12-04, version 1.0.15*

Maybe you could add bbc iPlayer ? At the moment you only have bbc america

*2023-01-09*

I used Qewd during a family holiday and it saved so much time. No having to bounce back and forth between apps. Made it easy to find holiday films, as well as see what my friends are watching. Got my sisters on the app and now we share lists. Good fun.

### 5/5 — A Welcome Surprise

*2023-01-05, version 1.0.8*

Downloaded speculatively after recommendation and I have been blown away to be honest. Not only has this app made choosing what to watch easier, it has made it fun.

Glad I downloaded and highly recommend!!

Has been great for my partner and I, highly recommend!!

*2022-12-22*

Amazing tool for sharing my playlists and discovering new shows.

### 5/5 — This is better than any tv os

*2022-08-06*

This app is incredible. I can watch live news, find where any movie or show is, and get recommendations from friends and see what some of my favorite film makers are recommending. I hope they make this into a smart tv app soon.

### 5/5 — Life Saver!

*2022-07-29*

This app saves so much time - less time wasted looking for things, less time wasted watching things randomly, less time arguing about what to watch. It’s killer!
