View trailers and films from our little cinematic universe without 3rd party ads, artificial intelligence intrusions or being tracked! The ETE app continues to be developed in-house by our cadre of former NASA engineers. They've spent countless hours pouring over the computer language 'Swift', wrestling with the Apple development program called Xcode and jumping through the hoops to upload it to the app store, all so you can grab it! Go NASA! --Currently the 'CREW' portion of the app is disabled while we run extensive project development tests and low-gravity implementation. --If you are likewise a producer looking for efficiency tools like we have been, great!

E Tenebris's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.2) and review sentiment (100% vs 61%). On update cadence and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
