WatchCircle

WatchCircle is a private diary for what you've watched — movies, shows, documentaries, flight catches, the lot. Add titles with the date, where you watched (Netflix, cinema, Apple TV, flight, etc.), and a simple opinion: Recommended, Time-Pass, or Waste of Time. Your list lives in your private iCloud — no servers, no analytics, no advertising. Apple's CloudKit handles sync between your own devices. Invite a friend with their Apple ID and you'll see each other's watched lists and ratings. It's the friend-recommendation question — "is this actually worth my time?" — without the noise of stars and reviews. Features: • Hybrid title search (iTunes + TMDb) finds posters and metadata for both mainstream films and streaming-exclusive TV • Watchlist for things you mean to get to • Custom poster upload for titles the search can't find • Optional watch link per entry — straight to the show on its platform • Private sharing via Apple's CKShare — friends-only, no public network • iCloud sync across all your Apple devices Built only with Apple frameworks. Bring your own iCloud account, the rest just works.
