Stop bouncing between five apps to find one thing to watch. Encue shows you where any movie or show is streaming, and what your friends say to watch next. One search, every service: subscription, free, rent, or buy, plus what's in theaters and what's coming soon. And your picks come from people you trust, not an engagement-driven feed. FIND IT IN SECONDS • Search any movie or show and instantly see everywhere it streams. • Or describe a mood, like slow burn British crime or feel good 90s comedies, and search gets it. • Not streamable yet? Tap Notify Me and Encue lets you know when it arrives. • Filter by your services, genres, rating, and runtime, so every result is something you can watch right now. • Browse every genre, or dive into collections like In Theaters, Under 90 Minutes, and Family Night. • Tap any actor or director to see their filmography, ranked by what they're known for. • Browse Top Charts: the highest rated titles worldwide and on each of your platforms. • Catch New Season badges the moment a favorite show returns. • Watch the trailer before you commit to two hours. ASK YOUR PEOPLE • Send a friend a recommendation with a note on why they'll love it, in the app or straight to Messages. • Can't decide? Ask your circle what to watch and get real title suggestions back. • Like and comment on what friends watch, rate, and review. • Show your taste with Four Favorites on a shareable profile. NEVER LOSE A TITLE AGAIN • Save anything to your Watchlist, Favorites, or your own custom lists. • Mark a title watched and it files into your Journal automatically, a tracker for every movie and show you've seen. • Rate and review everything you finish, down to single seasons and episodes, so future you remembers.
