What to watch tonight, decided together

Everyone is on the sofa, the TV is on, and twenty minutes later you are still scrolling. The problem is rarely that there is nothing to watch. It is that nobody wants to be the person who chooses, and nobody wants to sit through someone else's pick.

Put the shortlist where everyone can see it

Start a watchlist and add the films your group has been meaning to see. Anyone with the link can add to it, so the ideas stop living in four different chat threads and one person's notes app.

Everyone marks what they would watch

Instead of arguing, each person marks the films they are up for. There is no ranking and no budget of points to spend, just a yes. The films most of the group said yes to rise to the top on their own.

Sort by what the group actually wants

Order the list by what the group wants, by rating, by release date, or by how long a film has been waiting. Hide the films you have already seen and the ones nobody can stream tonight. What is left is a real shortlist.

The one who never replies

You know your group. Someone will never open a link. Ask them in person, tick their vote yourself, and the list still shows what everyone wants rather than only what the responsive half of the group wants.

Common questions

Do my friends need an account?

No. One link lets them add films and vote. An account is only useful if you want to keep your lists, history and updates in one place across groups.

Does it know what we can stream?

Yes. Films show where they are available for the services your group has, so you do not settle on something nobody can actually play.

How many people can join one list?

Enough for a friend group, a flatshare or a family. Everyone you send the link to can add films and vote.

Are there ads?

No. There is no advertising and no tracking, and nothing on a list is promoted because someone paid for it.
