Your recommendations come from your ratings, along with the tastes of friends you follow. **HOW IT WORKS** Choose between two titles at a time. Each pick gives ReelRecs a clearer sense of your taste, which helps it calculate a personal Rec Score for every movie and show. **WHAT YOU GET** • See a personal Rec Score before choosing what to watch • Check World and Friend Scores to see how other people rated each title • Browse your friends’ rankings and reviews, then add your own • Create a Watch+ group and get suggestions based on everyone’s taste • Explore titles by genre or streaming service, watch trailers, and find where each one is available • Save movies and shows to your watchlist for later **BETTER WITH YOUR CIRCLE** Follow friends to see what they have watched and how they ranked it. When you are choosing something together, Watch+ uses everyone’s ratings to suggest titles that fit the group.

The initial set up enables you to rate movies you have seen so it will come up with suggested titles based on your ratings. The app does a great job guiding you and I can’t wait to start using it and watching some of the shows that it has recommended for me. ### 5/5 — exactly what I was looking for! *2026-08-09* This app is perfect!

The pick with the most votes leads, marked with a popcorn badge. • See when members are not into a title, and each person's take in the Group Score breakdown. • New "Seen it" button, and group lists now hide titles members have already seen (turn it off in Filters). • A quick intro explains Watch+ the first time you visit. Also in this update: • Get notified when someone follows you. Control every notification type in Settings, including a pause-all switch. • Redesigned filters, with Platform front and center on Discover. • A cleaner home feed. • Faster signup: pick your streaming services later in Settings. • Clearer bot account labels and lots of polish. ### 1.0.6 — 2026-08-07 - Title pages: the Rec Score you see is now always your own score, no matter where you opened the title from. Friend and group scores stay in their own badges. - Watch+: member search now matches usernames, and you can add several friends to a group at once. - Profile: editing your username no longer hides the field behind the keyboard. - Profile: simplified layout. Your Ranked and Want to Watch lists are unchanged. - Plus smaller fixes and improvements. ### 1.0.5 — 2026-08-05 - Onboarding: redesigned "not interested" step with category rows and example posters. Dismiss whole categories, single titles, or select "None of these." - Discover: new "Era" filter to browse by release period, from "Last 2 years" to decades. - Title pages: new "Why this score" panel. Tap the Rec Score to see the reasons behind your personalized score. - Title pages: tap "Your Score" on a title you rated to see how that rating shapes your recommendations. - Title pages: remove a rating. Tap your rating again and confirm to clear it. - Watch+: redesigned group screens, simpler Add Friend flow, and bug fixes. ### 1.0.3 — 2026-08-04 - App icon restored. This build returns to our original app icon (dark background, film-reel logo), replacing the icon from the previous submission. - Onboarding: redesigned "not interested" step. The optional thumbs-down screen is now a set of category rows (Superhero, Anime, Horror, etc.) with example posters; users can dismiss whole categories, single titles, or select "None of these." Same account flow and endpoints, new screen. Also fixed a bug where this step could fail to load for new users, and it now retries quietly on a bad connection. - Discover: new "Era" filter. A filter chip alongside Genre and Platform that narrows results by release period (presets like "Last 2 years" plus decades). - Title pages: new "Why this score" panel. Tapping the Rec Score label opens a sheet explaining the personalized score: which titles the user rated similarly, cast and crew connections, shared themes. Informational only — no purchases, no external links, no user-generated content. - Title pages: rated titles. Tapping "Your Score" on a title the user already rated shows facts about their own rating: which recommendations it influences, how it compares to their closest-taste titles, and how their score compares with general audiences. No predictions, informational only. - Title pages: remove a rating. Tapping an already-selected rating button asks "Remove your rating?" and clears it on confirm. - Watch+ (group watching). Redesigned group screen and members list, restructured Add Friend flow, the same Era filter inside group filters, and the popularity slider now defaults to off. Fixed a bug where tapping posters could show a blank panel. - Playback fixes. Trailers keep playing when overlay sheets open; fixed the detail view occasionally blanking; fixed trailer rendering on Android; fixed a scrolling stall on the Ranking screen. - Sign-in reliability fix. Resolved a hang that could occur after social or email sign-in. - Visual refresh app-wide. Bottom sheets and dialogs use a frosted-glass style on the system material (including a fix to backdrop dimming at sheet corners), updated icon set, typography and spacing aligned to final designs. Historical (and pre-existing) note on Guideline 5.1.1(v): ReelRecs is an account-based personalized + social recommendation service. Its core feature, the "Rec Score," is a per-user 0–10 prediction of how much a specific signed-in user will like a title — it cannot be computed without that user's taste profile. To confirm that Feed, Discover, and Ranking are generated per-account (not a shared catalog), two accounts with different tastes are provided (email + password only, no 2FA/OTP): Account A — marcus.holt92@gmail.com / test123 Account B — danacwatches@yahoo.com / test123 Sign in as Account A and open Feed, Discover, and Ranking; then sign out, sign in as Account B, and open the same pages. The two accounts show entirely different titles, each ordered by that account's own Rec Score, because every page is generated from that account's ratings, follows, and bookmarks.
