I happened across a reddit thread for the release of Reel Savings and I’ve been building my personal database up since. The developer is very active and has already done so many cool things since release to show all my stats in ways that my spreadsheets could never. Not only tracks the when’s and how’s, but it can go even further with the details of each screening. Latest update even added hyperlinks to a movie’s Letterboxd which has been a nice touch. Paired with Fandango’s website showing auditorium numbers, I have a better way to plan upcoming movies in my favorite seats and screens. Disclaimer: it’s not linked to AMC, so it’s user input, but the developer has most of the process automated, especially when it comes to fees and autofilling auditorium details. I had fun going down memory lane over several nights, catching up with the past couple years of A-List using my ticket order history. The monthly wrap ups have been a great new feature, and I can’t wait to get the year rewind to force upon my friends at any opportune moment to show off my numbers. The developer is very active with troubleshooting and worked with me early on when I had some questions. They’ve put in some amazing work making it a must have companion for anyone who is an A list regular and at such a reasonable $5 for the year (at the time of this review). I’d have easily paid more once I gave it a try to find it was exactly what I was looking for, and pretty sure what many others are as well!
If you have Regal Unlimited or AMC A-List, this is a total game changer! I used to use spreadsheets to track my data which was a pain. This makes tracking easy and fun. And at only $5 a year, it’s worth the cost of not having to use a spreadsheet anymore. Thank you for creating this!
