## What is Threshold Family?

There are more shows than hours in the day — and somewhere in that scroll, your kids are already three episodes in.

Threshold is a faith-rooted content guide built by parents, for parents. We examine movies and TV shows across nine content categories so you can make informed viewing decisions for your family — without watching it first.

Every title gets a clear, five-tier rating — from Heavenly to Shall Not Pass — with detailed breakdowns tuned to your family's values. No algorithms choosing for you. No endless scrolling through gut-feeling reviews. Just honest, specific answers.

WHAT YOU GET

• Examine any movie or show on demand. Full AI-powered analysis in seconds — rating, content flags, specific concerns, positive themes, and family discussion questions.

• Nine content categories examined — Language, Violence, Sexual Content, Nudity, Blasphemy, Occult Themes, Drug & Alcohol, Positive Values, and Worldview. Each with severity levels and specific scene references.

• Build a household — every family member. Kids, teens, parents — add profiles with ages and concern sensitivities. Every rating re-calibrates to each person.

• Grace, your built-in AI guide. Ask her if a show is okay for your six-year-old. Get movie-night recommendations for mixed ages. Need talking points for a hard scene? She's got them.

• Community ratings from other Christian families. See how other households rated the same title. Upvote family picks that landed well in your home.

• Your library, your call. Save what you've watched, keep a watchlist of maybes, block what's off-limits. All synced across your devices.

WHO THIS IS FOR

Parents who believe:
• Your family's values aren't a data point — they're the foundation
• Faith is a lens, not a filter. We help you see what's in a title clearly, not hide it from you
• Every family draws the line differently, and that's the point

This isn't a replacement for your judgment. It's a tool that respects it.

HOW IT WORKS

Threshold's AI examines every title against nine content categories, drawing on publicly available information and our own analysis framework. Every rating is specific, scene-referenced, and calibrated to your family's values — the unvarnished report, not a sanitized version.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.5 — 2026-05-27

The Threshold Five
Five Scripture-grounded discernment questions now appear with every rating — a framework to guide your family's conversation about what you watch together. (Isaiah 5:20, Philippians 4:8, 1 Corinthians 11:1, Psalm 1:1, Galatians 6:7)
More Family Resources
When you want additional angles, we now link to the parent-review sites we consider trustworthy — Common Sense Media, Movieguide, Kids-in-Mind, Gospel Coalition, and more. Read across, decide as a family.
Sharper Per-Family Ratings
Better calibration for gospel-formative content like David, The Chosen, and End of the Spear. Per-profile ratings now scale more gracefully by age — what's Heavenly for adults can show as Blessed for younger viewers without losing the family-affirming framing.
Live Analysis Reveal
Tap Examine and watch the rating land within seconds, summary stream in below, and the rest of the breakdown populate progressively — same feel as the web app.
Polish
Tighter dropdown styling so every section reads as tappable. Cleaner card alignment on Family Resources. Faster streaming for fresh analyses.
Thanks for using Threshold.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-05-19

A big polish release with new sharing, deeper browse, and a cleaner per-household rating flow.
• Share any rating with friends and family — the new Share button on every title opens a sheet with explicit options for Message, Email, Facebook, Instagram, Copy link, and more. Recipients see the full rating breakdown on a public link, no sign-up required.
• Browse deeper into your streaming services. Disney+ now surfaces Pixar, Walt Disney Animation, Marvel, and Star Wars as their own sub-rails. Netflix, Hulu, and Prime show Animation and Family rails. Angel Studios is now a streaming-service filter too, with sub-rails for Faith Dramas, True Stories, and New Releases.
• Personalize ratings for your household with one tap. The new "Analyze for my household" button on any analyzed title reveals per-family-member ratings tailored to each kid's age and your household concerns. After your first tap, the per-profile view becomes the default everywhere — no need to re-tap on every title.
• "Ready when you are" hero card replaces the plain Analyze button on titles without a rating yet — shows you exactly what the AI analysis includes (rating, scene-by-scene heatmap, flags, discussion guide) before you commit. Plus a cleaner manual-rating option for parents who'd rather rate it themselves.
• Guide articles now display their inline images, rating-tier cards, and call-to-action buttons properly. Some articles previously showed raw markdown text instead of the intended images and layout — every guide is now fully readable.
• Smaller polish across the app: the rating dropdown opens inline instead of overlaying a system menu, the Sources section on each title is now collapsible with a count badge, and the household personalization moment has subtle animation and haptic feedback so it feels deliberate.
Thanks for using Threshold.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-05-14

Five focused improvements based on real user testing:
• Add Profile — when adding a household member, the age picker
  now appears alongside the name. Previously age could be left
  blank, which broke per-member ratings (a 5-year-old should
  see Discern on 7+ content). Existing profiles unaffected.
• Browse more — each streaming service rail (Netflix, Disney+,
  Hulu, Prime, Apple TV+) now shows 20 titles instead of 12.
  Same for Blessed+ and Family Picks. More to discover on the
  home screen at first glance.
• Dark mode that sticks — the theme toggle now persists across
  launches. Previously reverted to system default each cold
  launch.
• Clearer trial messaging — trial subtitle now says "No
  automatic charge" for promo-code subscribers (founding
  members, LAUNCH30, EARLY14) so you can see you won't be
  billed without an explicit choice.
• Faster re-opens of rated titles — fixed a bug where opening
  a previously-rated title on a slow network sometimes
  appeared to require a fresh analysis. Cached ratings now
  load reliably.
Thanks for using Threshold.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-05-05

Smoother subscription experience:

• Friendlier Grace welcome — she has more personality now and owns the AI part with a sense of humor.

• Trial transparency — Settings now shows exactly how many days are left in your free trial, whether it's the standard 7 days or the 90-day founding member or partnership trial.

• Cleaner upgrade flow — tapping Upgrade in Settings now opens the paywall reliably.

• Refreshed sign-up experience — pricing, plans, and your trial are all visible up front.

Faith-rooted family content guidance, refined.
