Reelgood - Streaming Guide

I love Reelgood. I used to use IMDb to locate shows and movies I wanted to watch on streaming services but it’s frequently lacking correct information (if it gives any at all…). ReelGood seems like it has the complete catalogs of all of the most popular services as well as even less popular ones that I had never heard of. It almost always knows where a title can be found and you can set it to show you results from every service or only the ones you subscribe to. I’ve been using it for a couple months to look up dozens of potential titles and I think only once I couldn’t find what I was looking for on the service it pointed me to (and it’s possible the title had just left or I made an error). Other great features include being able to rate titles to help others and get recommendations, and you can create a watchlist with the option to get an alert when something becomes available to you. Since I’ve used IMDb for years, I wish there was a way for me to import my watchlist from there or link them together instead of slowly doing it manually, but that’s a minor gripe. The app’s great and I highly recommend it!

While I really enjoy having this, as it allows me to search for movies and tv and then open the app and then take me to that movie/Tv show and watch it, provided I have the right streaming service. The only things I don’t like is that sometimes the app may tell me the wrong service to watch something, but that’s mainly because that show had moved services. The other thing I really don’t enjoy is the rating system they have in place. It would be better if you could write a review of the movie or show for others to see but also allow for a 1 to 10 rating rather than a 1 to 3 rating. It would allow for better recommendations for viewers and a more accurate rating on shows and movies from the average viewer. Another suggestion I have would be to add the ability to send push notifications on shows that haven’t been updated in a while through the service so it can remind you that you started a show but as far as the service knows you’re still on episode one. Another thing these notifications could be used for is to alert you when a show you have saved in “to see” comes to a service you are subscribed to.

For all of you passionate movie-watchers out there like me, it’s sometimes hard to find those unknown gems that spark excitement and real joy. The Reelgood App is a MUST HAVE for everyone, from novices to the aspiring film-buffs/wannabe Siskel & Eberts! Search, save, and sort your favorite movies and TV shows in the matter of a few clicks. Find out what streaming service they’re on within another few clicks. Learn about other related movies and shows with just a few more clicks! Honestly, during the pandemic, this has been one of my most used Apps to browse and note all of those great, highly rated movies, that I never knew about and would later realize that I wouldn’t have found it without the Reelgood App. Best App to casually waste time on, but later come to understand that you’re actually heavily investing into your free-time and screen time. If you like film, get the Reelgood App now. Hands down the best iPhone App that I’ve found and used in 2020..! #NQ
