Ever scrolled past a comment naming the perfect movie — then lost it before you could catch the title? ReelFind gets it back. ReelFind identifies movies and TV shows from the one place other apps ignore: the comments. Take a screenshot of a comment section — TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, anywhere — and ReelFind reads the text, pulls out the title people are talking about, and looks it up in seconds. No title in the thread? Just describe what you remember. HOW IT WORKS • Scan the comments — Pick a screenshot and ReelFind reads the thread, finds the movie or show being named, and matches it to real results with posters, ratings, and details. • Describe it with AI Hint — Forgot the name? Type or speak a plot, a scene, a character, or a half-remembered detail, and the AI search names the film. Ask follow-ups to narrow it down until it clicks. • Scan from any app — Share a screenshot straight from another app into ReelFind. No copy-paste, no switching back and forth — the title comes to you. YOUR VAULT Every title you find can be saved to your personal vault. Mark what you've watched, sort by rating, recency, or A–Z, and filter by movies, shows, or your watchlist. See it as a list, a wall of posters, or a full-screen feed, and group what you save into folders of your own. Tap any entry for ratings, genres, runtime, cast, and what to watch next — plus where it's streaming in your country and what other viewers wrote, with any review translated into your language in a tap. Mark titles watched and they become a month-by-month watch diary you can flip through like stories. FOR YOU ReelFind's recommendations are built from your vault — the films and shows you actually saved. The more you scan, the more your picks sound like you. TRAILERS & CLIPS Swipe a vertical feed of movie and TV trailers. Watch what catches you, save what you want — and the more you save, the more the feed becomes yours. Switch to Clips for short moments straight from official studio channels. FAVORITE FACES Loved someone on screen? Heart the actors and directors you follow from any title and keep them all in one place — synced across your devices. DETAILS THAT MATTER • Reads comment text in 7 languages — English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Russian • Voice input for hands-free describing • Browse titles, genres, and descriptions in your language — 7 supported • A clean, dark interface built for one thing: getting you to the title fast PRIVACY Your saved vault stays on your device and in your own iCloud. ReelFind uses privacy-first analytics (TelemetryDeck) that record only anonymous, aggregated usage to improve the app — never your screenshots, searches, or saved titles. To identify a title, the text or description you provide is sent to a third-party AI service; nothing else is shared. — This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB.
