This app was really helpful for tracking shows and movies, until the most recent update. They say it was updated based on feedback, but what used it for is gone or not as easy to use continue watching and haven't started are not separate. And the movies I was tracking are gone and there isn't a way to track movies anymore. I hate when something updates and it gets worse.

Started out okay, but had a lot of bugs where it would link to the wrong page for a movie. Hulu always starts at one specific episode for a show as well. The main page with recommendations links you to providers you don't have subscriptions for rather than the ones you do. I tried to contact support by email at all the ones I could about these issues and never got a response after several weeks so I am going to a different provider. Pretty decent for finding new movies and shows though.

This app seems to be going downhill. The app gets slower and slower with each update. Each update seems to completely rewrite the UI and make it less user friendly and clunky. The point of the app is really getting lost as it is all about recommendations rather than letting the end user find a show/movie to watch. The watchlist used to be useful, but now it seems to be geared more towards trying to guide me to purchase something rather than letting me see what streaming service has the show/movie I want to watch.

This app USED TO be my go-to for discovering new content and keeping up with recent releases. However, filtering content by years/rating/genre/etc. no longer works properly--making the app virtually useless. People do not want to sift through mountains of content to find new shows, and they do not want just another app to "automatically recommend" stuff for them (rendundant at this point, and too limiting). Your "recent update" did not fix this. Such a disappointment.

Lost one star because on the Android TV version it does not link to Paramount Plus, it says I do not have an app for that and I obviously do. Would be great to add the rating filter to the TV app and get rid of the waste. Other than that this app saves a lot of time and with something like Prime which is a minefield of buy, rent, subscribe and free with ads is essential to getting to content you wish to view.

App has gone downhill in the last year. The latest bug: the devs forgot to program the "agree" button to dismiss the EU privacy alert, so no matter how many times you tap it never goes away. Lots of crashes lately as well, and asking users to pay so that the app stops recommending movies you've already seen (should be basic functionality) is a little much.

Need an option to force low res all the time. Hi-Res images on a little cell phone screen don't matter and it's making your app slower. I thought image loading was fixed for a bit but the app is crashing on my Pixel 5A. I'm not sure what's going on but when I do a search and then go back to do another search, the app seems to crash while trying to get in the field to delete the previous search text. Update: On a 500meg symmetrical connection and still crashing.

I really want to love this app, but it seems a lot of development has gone into recommendation algorithms, and recommendations are the last thing I need more of. Meanwhile the fact that typing in a title and hitting enter doesn't return search results (I have to wait for them to populate a suggestion list) is counter intuitive and feels glitchy. The show info has always been reliable, but the app is bogged down with unneeded features at the expense of its main function.

I love the app - it makes it so much easier to find shows in your streaming services. I just started using the Watchlist feature and that's great, too. I wish the Chromecast app had an audio input for searching. The ouija board is super annoying to use, especially if this is going to be the first place I look for shows. The web UI is really weird in some ways. For example, the horizontal galleries have huge arrow buttons on them that completely COVER the buttons for watchlist/seen/like. And the thumbnail size should be adjustable.

This is the best tool to find what streaming services offer what shows/movies. I like that you can add movies to your 'watchlist' and my only gripe is that you can't filter the list by 'unseen' or have an option to view the movies you liked in the past. i.e., my list has like 150 movies on it now but I've seen 130 of them and it's annoying to go through all of them to see the 20 I haven't seen.

I have several streaming services, and I check this out at least once a day to see what's new. I have one suggestion though, that the header bar pull-down under the New Titles screen should be activated by a button at the top instead of the finger scrolling in the middle of the screen. I end up fighting with seeing the titles when I scroll down and have to scroll back up, and it it's very frustrating. I would also like to see a filter for my native language. Great app!

Not perfect, but it does a fine job of presenting streaming options. I don't know why my providers are not syncing when I log in. If I select Netflix and Amazon only,then those 2 providers should be listed in every instance of the application, across devices. This does not happen. I have to continually select my providers on each and every device I log into, even though I am logged in. I like this app very much still. Highly recommended

It does pretty much what I want it to do. I have read complaints about not having the correct data or not being up-to-date on shows, but I haven't seen that as of yet. My only complaint is for the Xbox integration. I would love for the Xbox app to open the respective apps for watching when I select to watch from JustWatch. So far, this only works for Netflix. The Prime Video integration on the Xbox app is atrocious - instead of opening the Prime Video app on the Xbox, it opens an Edge browser. The Hulu integration on Xbox is also likewise broken.

I've been using this app for years and it worked great. However, lately a lot of movie/shows images never load, even after leaving the app open for hours. It has become unusable, as you can only see new shows or movies based on such images, which are now a bunch of blank rectangles with no text. Tried deleting cache and reinstalling, didn't work.

Started promising before I noticed its limitations. It's great that it includes more services than other apps. But it doesn't seem to pull in me show information with any great frequency, fails to notify me of new episodes for the shows it has, and lacks show and episode information for a good number of titles. I only appreciate it for telling me if something is on a somewhat niche service. It offers nothing else I can't find done better on another app.

Extremely useful app for knowing what which streaming services/stores a certain movie or show can be found on, especially with the increasing number of services these days. Few ads, easy to use UI, can sort and filter shows by name, date, IMDb rating, or service, so you can find new ideas for what to watch next on whatever service you have at the moment. I don't feel like subscribing is necessary. If it wasn't for this app, figuring out how to watch a specific piece of content would be a PITA.

App will not launch. Have had the App for maybe 2-3 years with no issues. Loved it. Past week, the app has stopped working. Have uninstalled and reinstalled 2x. Works once, then not will not launch again. UPDATE: App is great when it works. Past week or more, App freezes and will not open. Sent feedback with log thru the website, no response. If you're lucky enough to have a functional App, you'll find it useful. For the rest of us, not so much.

Home run! The way your app interfaces with my Roku device is exactly what I've been wanting in an app. It replaces that 70s pong-style Roku remote control and interface. This is the future of connecting your viewing desires to watch on your smart TV view your subscriptions. It's in its infancy, too. Im looking forward to seeing the next few options added. Again, doing great, more more more, and thank you.

JustWatch has become unusable garbage. It worked beautifully for years. Now I can't scroll through my saved list without being stopped every few listings by an ad that can not be bypassed for longer than I have patience for. I have a lot of time invested in making lists in this app and I'm fine with some ads in the sidebar or header or whatever, but destroying the functionality of the app with these ads is a deal breaker. I'm looking for a different movie/TV tracker, and you should too.

The must-have app if you have more than a couple of streaming services. I never even go into the actual apps to search for things to watch anymore, but only to watch said movie/show. It's also great for compiling watchlists for movies/shows. I don't use the tracking feature that tracks what episode you left off, but I could see where it would be useful for a show you're watching the physical disc of, since the individual services will already tell you what episode you left off on. 5/5 stars.
