Ratings and reviews

App has a massive range of films in its catalogue, and it makes for a handy way to know when something is coming up. Though it does have one big issue where if your phone screen turns off after a minute or so, it'll reset the entire app. So you have to be looking at your phone the entire time which is a pain

Good app, but keeps crashing on me when I leave the app or I turn my screen off. It could use a feature to start in a specific time of the movie because when a crash happens, I can't keep using the app as it only starts at the beginning. Also, the search mechanism doesn't really work for me. Searching for a scream movie pulls up so many non-scream movies for example.

Was working great until my phone locked itself from inactivity. It then automatically reset the app and stopped warning me of jump scares. There's no option to fast forward or pick a time so unless I restarted the movie I couldn't synchronise it to the app. I recommend letting users select a time in the movie in case things like this happen.
