3.2.1 5 days ago
This update adds popular 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 bring in comments you shared in that community!
Plus, enjoy lots of quality of life improvements, including the ability to hide an episode thumbnail until it’s watched, and automatic translation when replying to comments in the social feeds.
3.1.2 17 Jul
You can now choose your top 10 favourite films and shows to display on your profile.
The ‘Releasing’ and ‘Timeline’ sections have been improved. You now have more control over what you see here, and digital releases will show for films too, not just theatrical releases.
3.1.1 15 Jul
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 14 Jul
This update is the first major refinement of community features, making navigation much smoother and adding a few quality of life tweaks.
No more hopping into Profile and then Feed. I’ve streamlined the whole experience. The tab has been renamed to “Community” (still showing your profile picture), and at the top level you can switch between your profile screen and the community feed—your choice stays put. In my view, you’ll have the feed open 99% of the time, only occasionally checking something in your profile.
The feed now supports not only posts—you’ll also see other users’ ratings and reviews (everything is fully configurable; you can choose to see only posts and hide ratings and reviews, or the other way around… it’s your choice).
In profile view, you’ll also see your heatmap, and it’s much easier to see your followers and who you’re following. *Everything* here is user-configurable: you can hide follower/following counts and users, and you can also fully hide the heatmap. Every item shown is completely up to you—what you share, or don’t share.
3.0.1 13 Jul
I’m excited to announce that Cinephile’s much-requested community features are here! You can now create your social profile and start connecting with fellow cinephiles in the comments for movies, shows and individual episodes!
IMPORTANT!!
If you haven’t been following the news and you’re worried I’m turning the app into a full-blown social media platform, don’t worry! As I promised from the start, *all* social features in the app are completely opt-in. There’s a toggle in the Settings screen: if you switch it off, the app will be as private as it is today. The Profile tab and comment sections will be completely hidden from you.
Can’t wait to see you all in Cinephile’s feed!
Cheers,
Mario
3.0 11 Jul
This version includes 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 show)
- New “Haven't Started Yet” section in the Home queue, plus a revamped “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 to let you mark an episode as watched right 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 6 Jul
This update is PACKED with cool stuff:
- There’s a new “Schedule” screen, an extension of the Calendar, showing all releases for movies/TV shows/episodes.
- New “Out in Theaters” and “Airing Now” feeds in Search & Discovery.
- In the Home tab’s compact list layout, you can fully customise the cards (including the option to show no background at all, which matches the original look for this layout before the last update).
- Fixed recent Trakt changes that broke syncing and made it impossible to connect to the platform.

2.1 10 Jun
You can now customise your library shelves with new style options. Choose from a range of designs beyond the classic wooden beams look, so you can match your shelves to the aesthetic you want.
2.0.2 10 Jun
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 several major improvements to some localisations.
2.0.1 8 Jun
This is Cinephile's biggest update yet!! The app has been completely rebuilt to support collections, plus a brand new Library tab. There are loads of improvements and new features in this update, but the standout is undoubtedly the new Collections feature. There are three types of collections: standard, ranked, and smart.
- Standard Collections: Simple collections where you can organise your media however you like (e.g., related films and shows from the same saga; the best horror movies from the 80s, and more).
- Ranked Collections: As the name suggests, these are collections where you can rank your media based on your taste (e.g., the best Italian comedies; the top horror movies of all time; the best shows from the 2000s, and more).
- Smart Collections: My personal favourite! Set up a set of filters (e.g., by tags, ratings, library status, actors, etc.). Any media in your library that matches the selected criteria is automatically added to the collection!
2.0 7 Jun
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.
A bug that was stopping the search bar from working has been fixed.
