MovlyHub is where you track everything you watch and play β€” films, series and video games β€” in a single account. Unlike a passive library, MovlyHub turns discovery into something you actually do. β€” BRING YOUR HISTORY WITH YOU β€” Moving from another tracker? Import your watch history, lists and ratings from TV Time, Trakt, Letterboxd, IMDb, JustWatch or a CSV file. Nothing gets left behind. β€” RATE EVERY EPISODE β€” Give any episode its own score and review. Series ratings and episode ratings are independent, so you can see exactly how a show holds up season by season. β€” NEVER LOSE YOUR PLACE β€” Up Next always knows the exact episode you're on. A personal calendar shows when the next one airs, and a notification tells you the day it lands. β€” FILMS, SHOWS + GAMES, ONE ACCOUNT β€” Switch between the "Movies & TV" realm and the "Games" realm with a single tap. Lists, friends, comments, notifications and stats stay separate for each realm. β€” DAILY POSTER PUZZLE β€” Guess the film or game from a pixelated poster. Each wrong guess reveals more detail; correct guesses earn points. Public leaderboard, daily streak and an optional hint system. Playable without an account. β€” "WHAT SHOULD I WATCH / PLAY?" WIZARD β€” A three-step, mood-based recommender: choose a genre, add titles you already like, and get a personalised grid. No sign-up required. β€” SOCIAL TIMELINE β€” See what your friends are watching and playing. Write reviews, rate, and share lists. Notifications are filtered by active realm, so game sessions aren't interrupted by movie activity. β€” YEAR IN REVIEW β€” A personalised end-of-year report covering both films and games: favourite genres, monthly breakdown and viewing streaks. β€” DIARY / WATCHLIST / FAVOURITES β€” Log what you watched or played each day, build watchlists, and revisit your calendar. β€” FRIENDS + TASTE MATCH β€” Suggested friends, an "Active This Week" list, and a taste-compatibility score. β€” ALSO INCLUDED β€” β€’ Search and detail pages for films, shows and games β€’ Streaming availability by region β€’ Trailers and videos β€’ Reviews, ratings and custom lists β€’ Seven languages: EN, TR, DE, ES, FR, PT, RU β€’ Dark and light themes β€’ Push notifications and badges β€’ Weather widget and daily recommendation cards MovlyHub has been live on the web at movlyhub.com since 2026 with active monthly users.
