Up Next keeps track of the movies and TV shows you want to watch, the ones you're in the middle of, and the ones you've finished. Add a title and Up Next fills in the details: poster, cast, ratings, where it's streaming, and when the next season airs. YOUR WATCHLIST β’ Separate tabs for TV Shows and Movies, in the order you want to watch them. β’ Shows you're partway through sit in Watching, at the top. β’ Mark TV seasons watched one at a time. When you finish every aired season, the show moves to Watched, and it comes back on its own when a new season starts. β’ Returning Soon and Coming Soon show premieres and releases from your watchlist over the next two weeks. β’ Rate what youβve watched: thumbs up, meh, or thumbs down. SHARE WITH ONE OTHER PERSON β’ Share your whole watchlist with one other Apple Account over iCloud. You both add, check off, and reorder the same titles. β’ Get a notification when the other person adds or finishes something, and see recent changes in Activity. β’ Your streaming services are shared too, so "on my services" means the same thing to both of you. WHERE TO WATCH β’ Pick the streaming services you have. Each title shows where it's streaming, with your services listed first. β’ Filter your watchlist or Discover to what you can watch right now. β’ Choose your region for accurate availability. TITLE DETAILS β’ Cast, with a page for each actor's other movies and shows. β’ Every episode in every season, plus ratings for each season and episode. β’ More Like This, trailers, and links to TMDB and IMDb. SEARCH THE WAY YOU THINK β’ Type a title, or describe what you want: "hulu hockey comedy", "90s heist movies", "korean dramas", "tom hanks christmas". β’ Ask for more of something you liked: "shows like Ted Lasso", "movies like Inception on Netflix". β’ Streaming services, genres, decades, countries and people are all understood, and results show what's on your services. β’ On iPhones with Apple Intelligence, Up Next also reads plot descriptions ("movie where a guy relives the same day") and ranks "shows likeβ¦" by feel, not just subject. It all happens on your device; nothing you type leaves it. DISCOVER β’ Trending, Airing This Week, In Theaters, Top Rated, New Releases, and Recommended For You based on your watchlist. β’ Search for any movie or show and add it in one tap. COLLECTIONS β’ Group titles however you like: Christmas movies, Studio Ghibli, date night. β’ Suggestions for what else fits each collection. β’ Each collection tracks what you've watched in it separately from your Up Next queue. ALSO β’ Built for iOS 26, with full layouts on iPad. β’ Dark, light, or system appearance. β’ Syncs across your devices with iCloud. β’ No account, no ads, no tracking.
