About

Flick

Features

Movie night has a decision problem. Four apps, twenty minutes of scrolling, and somehow you still end up rewatching the same show. Flick fixes the deciding. Tell it which streaming services you pay for, swipe through a deck of movies and TV shows, and let tonight pick itself. THE DECK The deck deals from the services you already pay for — subscription streaming only, no rentals, no titles locked behind services you don't have. Swipe right to save it. Swipe left to pass, and it never comes back. Swipe up and it goes straight into tonight's queue. Flip any card for the rating, runtime, cast, and why it reached you. And as you browse, the whole screen takes on each poster's light. YOUR RANGE, YOUR RULES A five-stop dial runs from Safe to Uncharted — from crowd-pleasers you somehow missed to the strange stuff nobody told you about. Set hard limits once: skip horror entirely, cap ratings at PG-13/TV-14 or PG/TV-PG, keep to new releases, or declare that nothing is off-limits. TONIGHT A short queue for tonight only — it clears at 4am, so tomorrow starts clean. Tap play and Flick hands you off to the right service, then asks one honest question when you come back: did you actually watch it? SAVED Everything you swipe right on lands in Saved, split into Movies and TV, with priorities, filters, and sorting. "Must watch" means must watch. SEARCH IN MOODS Type a title, or try a mood: "Quietly devastating." "Nothing happens, beautifully." "Loud and stupid." "Under 90 minutes." HONEST BY DESIGN • Free. No ads. No account. • Your swipes, saves, and taste profile stay on your device. • Every pick shows its reasoning — "Why this reached you" is on every card. • Works with Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, HBO Max, Hulu, Apple TV+, Peacock, and Paramount+. • Built for VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, and Reduce Motion. Flick uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB. Streaming availability comes from JustWatch via TMDB and reflects your region.
