- “Every time you turn it on you get prompted to turn on notifications. You cannot do anything until you dismiss the prompt.”
- “The persistent push notification dialog on launch is a shockingly user-hostile behavior for such a considerate app”
- “…and that’s the pop-up that appears every single time I open the app, letting me know notifications are off. It happens EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.”

- “Crashes — Used to use this app when I was watching lots of movies. Got back into the habit but can no longer use this app. App crashes as soon as I open the “coming soon” tab.”
- “Does not open — Purchased. But when I click on it, it disappears after a couple seconds and takes me back to the phone homepage”
- “unresponsive — I have been unable to get the app to work”

Destructive redesign and loss of key features
Users express strong dissatisfaction with a recent redesign that removed essential functionality like chronological sorting, filtering, and historical release tracking.
5
reviews
- “Redesign is Awful — Was a nice app to have before they redesigned the app. No filtering system like chronological order or alphabetically.”
- “Update killed this app — I used to love this app. It was a great way to keep track of what movies are coming up that I want to catch in theaters. Ever since one of the later updates, the app went downhill for me very quickly.”
- “What happened? — I used to love this app for tracking the release dates of my upcoming digital releases. The old format was easy to navigate and everything was done chronologically. Since the update the app is completely useless to me. Deleting.”
Missing core features and poor feature set
Users highlight the absence of basic features like episode tracking, season completion, activity logs, ratings, and progress indicators.
5
reviews
- “However, this app is missing a key feature: the ability to rate the movies and series that you watch!”
- “Wish there was an activity section to know what I’m watching, progress for each series and such on. Also, a button to mark an entire season as watched would help.”
- “The only thing that’s really annoying about this app is that every time I track an episode of a show I watch it kicks me out of that season.”
Lack of updates and poor maintenance
Several users note the app hasn't been updated in over 9 months, leading to technical issues, outdated design, and lack of new features.

reviews
- “Hasn’t been updated in more than 9 months. Give us Liquid Glass and regularly updates.”
- “Hasn’t been updated in 9 months. — Title is self explanatory, I’m sure that’s why I’m having the very specific issue I’m having it’s just unfortunate because I liked this app at first”
- “The app has serious issues. It is very “juttery” and every time you turn it on you get prompted to turn on notifications.”
No alerts or notification failures
Users report that the app fails to send release date alerts despite being configured to do so, rendering a core function useless.
3
reviews
- “No alerts — I like the app but it does not send me alerts that is one of the most important points because I have this app”
- “I have not received any alerts. Seems like a good app. However, it should alert ahead of the set movie release date in whatever increments I set. I have not gotten one alert.”

First load takes ~60–120s. Cached after.
