I’m a big, big fan of TV Time. Unfortunately, that app has taken a downward spiral and I need a new app to track my shows and movies. This is the first app I have downloaded and it looks beautiful. I signed up for a yearly subscription and I hope this app does well forever!
Developer Response Glad to have you onboard 🙌 We’re here to stay, it’ll only get better from here ☺️

3.2.3 1d ago
This update brings improvements to the widgets (colour in Clear/Tinted mode) and to the icons. It also fixes a bug that was causing import to fail.
3.2.2 2d ago
This update is bringing the goods!! There’s a lot to unpack here, but here are the essentials
- You can now select your favourite characters per movie/show/episode (you can also import your TV Time character votes!!)
- Community reviews now appear on the movie/show details screens.
- GIFs are included too! Available to all users, Premium or otherwise.
- Share profile cards and links so everyone knows where and how to find you in Cinephile.
- There’s an alternative sign in option with Google.
3.2.1 6d ago
This update brings some highly requested data import options. You can now easily import your data from Letterboxd, Sofa Time, and TV Time’s official data. When importing the latter, you can also include comments you left in that community.
Plus, there are other quality of life improvements, like the ability to hide an episode’s thumbnail until it’s watched, and auto-translation for replying to comments in the social feeds.
3.1.2 Jul 17
You can now choose your top 10 favourite movies and shows to feature on your profile. The “Releasing” and “Timeline” sections have been improved. You now have more control over what you see there, and digital releases will also appear for movies—not just theatrical releases.
3.1.1 Jul 15
This update introduces a TON of improvements. Here's a breakdown of some highlights:
- Navigation in threads continues to improve. This update should start making the community section really feel more like a vibrant social media feed, with much better navigation, and better handling of the feed (no more having my welcome post always appear when sorting by popularity). This "popularity" has been relabeled to "trending now", and takes other things into account beyond just likes and comments. It also refreshes daily. My welcome post, and any future announcements I'll want to make, will appear as a dismissible pinned post that you can eliminate after seeing it once.
- There are new options for keeping always the tab bar (not hide it when scrolling), as well as to have the rating prompt after marking something as watched appear automatically without having tap on the popup. Note that by default the popup is still on (I very much prefer it), but the automatic sheet presentation is now an option you can choose if you so desire.
- Speaking of the popup, you can now do a lot more here, like mark as favorite, write a review, and VERY IMPORTANT, can navigate straight to the comments section form there to leave your two valuable cents.
- The "Releasing" section in the Home tab can now be configured to show only releasing movies, shows, or episode releases (or all of course, that's the default). A similar fix has been added to the "Schedule" (which has been relabeled to "Timeline" to better convey the meaning of this screen). In the Timeline, for future releases (from today forward) you will only see relevant media (watching episodes, wishlisted / for later movies, etc), while going backward in time you will see everything, since it's a timeline of all releases in your library.
- There are a LOT of privacy options now in your profile settings. You can now choose not just what to share, but WHO to share it with.
- The app has been fully localized to Turkish and Arabic.
- Fixed Trakt's sync problems that were introduced recently in a breaking API change on their end.
Cheers,
Mario
3.1 Jul 14
This update brings the first major refinement to community features, making navigation much smoother and adding some quality-of-life tweaks.
No more jumping to Profile first, then Feed. I’ve streamlined the whole flow. The tab is now renamed to "Community" (still showing your profile picture). At the top level, you can switch between your profile screen and the community feed, and your choice will stick. In practice, you’ll have the feed open about 99% of the time, and only occasionally check something in your profile.
The feed now supports more than just posts. You’ll also see other users’ ratings and reviews. Everything here is fully configurable: you can choose to see only posts and hide ratings and reviews, or show ratings and reviews instead. The choice is yours.
In the profile view, you now also see your heatmap, and it’s easier than ever to spot who follows you and who you follow. *All* of this is user-configurable. You can hide follower/following counts and users, and you can also fully hide the heatmap. Every item shown in your profile is completely up to you—share what you want, and hide what you don’t.
3.0.1 Jul 13
Je suis ravi(e) d’annoncer que les fonctionnalités communautaires tant demandées de Cinephile sont enfin là! Vous pouvez maintenant créer votre profil social et commencer à interagir avec d’autres cinéphiles dans les sections de commentaires des films, des séries et des épisodes individuels!
IMPORTANT!!
Pour celles et ceux d’entre vous qui ne suivent pas les nouvelles et qui craignent que je transforme l’app en véritable réseau social, pas d’inquiétude! Comme promis dès le départ, *toutes* les fonctionnalités sociales de l’app sont entièrement facultatives. Il y a un bouton dans l’écran Réglages : s’il est désactivé, l’app vous paraîtra aussi privée qu’aujourd’hui. L’onglet Profil et les sections de commentaires seront totalement invisibles pour vous.
Hâte de vous voir tous dans le fil Cinephile!
À bientôt,
Mario
3.0 Jul 11
This version brings some really nice new tweaks:
- New widget with an upcoming calendar for movie/show/episode releases (configurable—long-press the widget to choose what to display)
- New “Haven't Started Yet” section in the Home queue, plus a refreshed “Haven't Watched In A While” section. The latter can now be shown in either expanded mode (matching the rest of the queue sections) or compact mode. Compact mode is similar to what you currently have, but improved so you can mark an episode as watched right from there.
- Infinite scrolling in the new Schedule screen, with the option to show All Time releases. The same applies to the “Recently Watched” screen.
2.8.1 Jul 6
This update is PACKED with cool stuff:
- A new “Schedule” screen is here, extending Calendar to show all movie/show/episode releases.
- New “Out in Theaters” and “Airing Now” feeds on the Search and Discover screen.
- On the Home tab, you can fully customize the cards in the compact list layout (including the option to show no background—this was the original look for this layout before the previous update).
- Fixed Trakt’s recent breaking changes that made syncing with the platform impossible.
2.8 Jul 5

2.5 Jun 26
This update fixes a bug that affected some users, where the library size used unnecessary storage space.

This small update brings the following improvements:
- There’s a new exclusion filter in Smart Collections, so you can choose what *not* to include in the collection (e.g., exclude a genre or actor)
- You can now edit a movie’s digital release date, not just the theatrical one.
2.4.1 Jun 21
This update packs a punch with lots of new improvements and features!

- There’s also a new sharing option for collections, and the episode rating card can now be viewed inside the app, not just when shared.
- New filters and sorting options are now available for collection cards.
- For movies, the app now shows digital release dates in addition to theatrical release dates. You can also choose to be notified when a movie is released digitally.

2.4 Jun 21
Hope you enjoy getting nerdy with stats, because this update brings the heat!! So many new stats you’ll never get bored! Have fun!
2.3 Jun 16
This update brings a major upgrade to the Statistics screen. Discover a fresh set of new stats, and interact with every chart. Now, just tap any part of a chart to see a tailored list of the movies or shows that match the selected statistic.
2.2 Jun 13
You can now skip episodes or seasons you don’t want to track or watch. Start tracking on any season or episode you like, and your queue will follow. Plus, there are many new customization options for your library shelves.
2.1 Jun 10
Now you can customize your library shelves with new style options. Pick from a range of designs beyond the original wood-beam look, so you can match your shelves to the aesthetic you want.
2.0.2 Jun 10
This is a small follow-up to the big 2.0 release. I’ve added a few minor tweaks to fix search in collections, plus major improvements to several localizations.
2.0.1 Jun 8
Here’s Cinephile’s biggest update yet!! The app has been completely rebuilt to support collections, plus a new Library tab. This update includes a ton of improvements and new features, but the biggest highlight is undoubtedly the new Collections feature. There are three types of collections: standard, ranked, and smart.
- Standard Collections: Simple collections where you can organize your media using whatever criteria you like (examples: related movies and shows from the same saga; the best horror movies from the 80s, etc.)
- Ranked Collections: As the name suggests, these let you rank your media based on your taste (examples: top Italian comedies; the best horror movies of all time; top shows from the 2000s, etc.)
- Smart Collections: My personal favourite! You set a set of filters (e.g., by tags, ratings, library status, actors, etc.). Any media in your library that matches your selected filters gets added automatically to the collection!
2.0 Jun 7
This update adds a new import option for TV Time. You can now use the “TV Time Out” tool to export your data from TV Time and import it into Cinephile.
We fixed a bug that prevented the search bar from working.

- Rewatch counts are now shown everywhere for movies, shows, and episodes
