StreamySync shows you where any movie or TV show is streaming, in every country. It is built for people who watch across borders: travellers, expats, and anyone who has ever hit "not available in your region". WHERE TO WATCH, WORLDWIDE Search any film or series and instantly see which services carry it, country by country. No more guessing why a title disappeared when you crossed a border. ADD TITLES IN SECONDS Forward an email, snap a screenshot, paste a trailer link or a streaming page, or simply type a name. StreamySync recognises the title, even when there is no text on screen, and adds it to your watchlist with a poster and where-to-watch details. ONE WATCHLIST, EVERY SERVICE Keep a single watchlist and watch history across Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV, Disney+, Hulu, Paramount+ and more. Everything lives in one place, on every device. RECOMMENDATIONS THAT FIT YOU Get AI recommendations based on what you have watched and the services you actually subscribe to. Or just ask Streamy in plain language, like "a feel-good film for a rainy day", and get an answer. SPEND LESS, WATCH MORE The subscription optimiser looks at what you pay across services and suggests where to cut waste, so you keep the subscriptions you use and drop the ones you do not. SHARE WITH FRIENDS Swap recommendations with friends at home and abroad, and see what people you trust are watching. StreamySync is available in 13 languages and now follows your device language automatically. StreamySync is not affiliated with or endorsed by any streaming service. Availability varies by country and may change.
