📰 JustWatch in the Press:

"JustWatch Debuts A New Search Engine For Cord Cutters"
Sarah Perez, Techcrunch

"The easiest way to tell which streaming service has the show you want."
David Nield, Gizmodo

"The problem with cord cutting is that it can often be difficult to find what you’re looking for on all of these streaming services. Thankfully, one nifty web app is looking to simplify the searching process."
Zach Epstein, BGR

"There are several other similar services for finding what's streaming online but JustWatch is probably the best I've found."

It's a useful app to help me keep track of TV shows I watch, to keep a history of TV and movies, also to help me find new stuff to watch and where to stream stuff. I like the app. One thing that is problem, though, is the TV comedy show called "The Upshaws"; you have a couple seasons of that show listed wrong & switched and in wrong places. Episode titles are off because of this, too. Available episodes even listed as unavailable. So the watchlist for that show is inaccurate. Please fix. Thanks.

I love the JW service in general - and make a lot of use of it on PC. The app is slick and functional, but seems to completely lack functionality for my use case, which I can't imagine is uncommon - it pretty much negates the point of the 'watchlist': I have access to Amazon Prime, Netflix and Sky Movies. I add films regularly to my watchlist. Movie night, I want to filter by these providers to see what I can watch without paying (and preferably be able to save that as a default filter). But the app does not allow filtering by provider, which makes it pretty much useless! So it's back to the PC... Seriously, how can this be missing?!! OK, the comment on this review pointed out that the providers can be filtered behind the 'three dots' in the corner. Whilst this takes away the concern I expressed, I can't help thinking this is an odd way to present it - why is it any different from any other filter element?

Hi Tim, of course – that is a basic use case and our app actually supports it. Can you have a look in your provider settings (three dots menu on top right) and double check that only your available services are marked? If they are marked, you should see a filterbar at the top of your Watchlist. Contact us anytime at [email protected]

Works well. Stream services and smart TVs need to allow it to intergrate, although they may not like you being able to see what's on their competitors so easy. Some people complain it shows films they don't have, especially with Disney app, make sure you have your profile able to see adult content for all films. Seems to work well with my Ruken NOW TV USB stick on old TV, but can't use phone to new Oled LG smart TV. But can install JustWatch app on TV and plays films. Why not phone to TV app.
