Matinee: Watch Later
Save videos for later watching
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A unified watch-later queue for iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. Add videos from Raindrop, mymind, YouTube channels, subreddits, or any RSS feed. iCloud sync. Privacy-first.
Matinee is a watch-later queue for videos that follows you across iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.
Save a YouTube link from Safari, X, or any app. Pull entire collections from Raindrop. Connect mymind and pull a space. Subscribe to YouTube channels by URL. Follow a subreddit. Paste any RSS or Atom feed — even a blog homepage and Matinee finds the feed for you. Mark something watched on your phone — your Apple TV already knows.
ONE QUEUE, EVERY DEVICE
- iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV stay in sync through your own iCloud account.
- Mark watched once. The state follows you everywhere.
- Search the whole queue by title or channel.
RAINDROP, FIRST-CLASS
- Sign in once with OAuth, pick a collection, done.
- Optional #watched tag pushed back to Raindrop when you finish a video.
- One-time unlock for Pro. No subscription.
MYMIND
- Connect with an access key. Pick one space, or pull the YouTube videos from all of them.
- Finish a video and Matinee marks it completed in mymind — the same flag you would set there yourself.
- A read-only key is enough to import; marking completed needs a full-access key.
- Pro tier feature.
YOUTUBE CHANNELS
- Add a channel by handle or URL. Matinee resolves the rest.
- Latest videos pulled from the public RSS feed.
- Free tier covers one channel. Pro removes the limit.
REDDIT SUBREDDITS
- Add a subreddit by name, r/name, or full URL.
- Matinee pulls posts from the subreddit's public feed and keeps the ones linking to YouTube or Vimeo.
- Pro tier feature.
ANY RSS OR ATOM FEED
- Paste a feed URL — or just the homepage. Matinee finds the feed for you.
- Parses RSS 2.0 and Atom, including WordPress and podcast-style enclosures.
- Items linking to YouTube or Vimeo videos go into the queue. Anything else is skipped.
NATIVE TO YOUR DEVICES
- Share sheet on iPhone and iPad drops a video straight into your Inbox.
- Select multiple videos to mark watched, move to Inbox, or delete in bulk — five-second undo on every destructive action.
- iPad: ⌘R refresh, ⌘F search, ⌘A select all, Esc cancel, Space to mark watched, drag-and-drop from Safari, multi-window with Stage Manager.
- Apple TV: focus-friendly grid, long-press for quick actions, watched state from your phone follows you to the living room.
PRIVACY BY DEFAULT
- Zero third-party analytics.
- Your library lives on your devices and in your iCloud, not on our servers.
- We don't run any servers, so we couldn't see your data even if we wanted to.
PRICING
- Matinee is free forever with Inbox and one YouTube channel.
- Matinee Pro unlocks Raindrop, mymind, unlimited YouTube channels, subreddits, and any RSS feed with a one-time unlock.
- Future sources (Vimeo) come included for Pro users at no extra cost.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
- A visual refresh across iPhone and Apple TV: one palette and one set of controls, drawn from the app icon.
- Search now looks through everything, watched videos included.
- Removing a source asks first, and you can undo it.
- Empty screens say what they are actually waiting for. An empty Inbox, a source that has published nothing, and a filter that matched nothing are three different things.
- The sidebar shows how many videos are left in each row.
- Vimeo videos stay put — they were being removed for not being on YouTube.
- Errors no longer hide behind an open sheet, and the Raindrop and mymind pickers show when they are loading.
- Apple TV: focus starts on the first video instead of the search icon, the onboarding buttons are readable, and YouTube only comes up for videos that are on YouTube.
