cinefill is a private movie and TV diary for keeping track of what you watch, what you want to watch next, and how your taste changes over time. Log movies and full TV seasons with watched dates, half-star ratings, and optional notes. Save titles for later in a watchlist. Browse an online media catalog when you want ideas, then see at a glance what you have already logged or saved. DIARY Build a clean history of your viewing. Filter by media type, genre, or decade, and sort by recently watched, highest rated, release year, or recently logged. WATCHLIST Keep a simple list of what you might watch next. Helpful details like year, genre, and runtime appear right on the row, so choosing something is quick. YOU See your taste take shape as your diary grows: rating patterns, top genres, favorite eras, recurring directors and creators, watch activity, and a personal taste summary. SEARCH Find movies, shows, and people through online catalog search. Explore popular titles, browse by genre or decade, and see what is already in your diary or watchlist. IMPORT AND EXPORT Bring in an existing compatible diary export, or export your cinefill data whenever you want a copy. PRIVACY cinefill is local-first. Your diary, ratings, notes, and watchlist live on your device by default. There are no required accounts and no analytics.
