New long-press to filter options on circles screen Improved Search filters

Flickmate 2.0 is here — our biggest refresh yet. Flickmate is the social way to decide what to watch: instead of anonymous star ratings, you see what the friends and family whose taste you trust are watching, rating and recommending. What's new: • A cleaner 5-tab layout — Home, Circles, Watchlist, Following and Profile, all one tap away. • One Home, four sources — switch your feed between Everyone, your Mates, TMDB and My Ratings, right from the title. • Your mates activities in an intuitive feed — each circle lays out everyone's ratings and watchlist activity in a familiar, easy-to-follow timeline. • Browse TMDB built right into Home — trending, popular and top-rated, no extra tab. • A tidier Profile and Settings. New to Flickmate? Create or join a circle, see what your people are loving, add titles to your watchlist, and rate what you watch. The more your circle rates, the clearer it gets what's actually worth your time. We read every bit of feedback — tell us what you think.

Notifications are here — get notified when your circles rate titles, when members join, and when someone follows you. Plus a new Notifications setting and fixes to sign-out and account switching.
