Ratings & reviews

WHAT'S NEW Follow the People You Watch Most Insights has always shown which actors and directors turn up most across everything you've watched. Now each of them has a Follow button right there, so the moment you notice you've seen seven of someone's films you can start hearing about their next one. See What Arrived While You Were Away Notifications you haven't opened yet are marked with a gold edge, so you can tell at a glance what's new. The bell count now updates when you open the app too, instead of sitting on an old number until you tapped through. Arrivals Stay in Your Notifications A title landing on a service you have, or a new release from someone you follow, used to be a push and nothing more. Miss it and it was gone. Those now sit in your notifications list with the poster, so you can scroll back and find the one you meant to watch. Icons That Are Ours The tab bar, Tonight's Pick, Swipe Match, Lists, Diary, Notes, Insights, Settings, and the Watched, Note, and Share buttons now use icons drawn for Showvie instead of the stock set. Same ones on the website, so a feature looks like itself wherever you find it. Film or Series at a Glance For You and Most Added This Week posters now carry the same FILM and SERIES chip as everywhere else, so you can tell what you're looking at without tapping in. FIXES Premieres Say So A show that started on a service used to be announced as "now on Apple TV", as if it had moved there. Those rows now read "out now on Apple TV", matching the push. Next Episode Means Next A show between seasons used to lead with "Next Episode: S4 E1, Episode 1" and a date a year out, which is a placeholder, not a schedule. The card now shows the next episode only when it airs within three months. Otherwise it shows the latest one that aired and notes when the show returns. Streaks, Named Insights showed a "day streak" next to "on a roll" with nothing saying which was which. They now read "longest streak" and "current streak". Clearing Your Recents Actually Clears Them Tapping Clear on Recently Viewed put up a confirmation and then quietly did nothing. Both Recently Viewed and Recent Searches now clear the moment you tap, with no confirmation to sit through. Suggested Keeps Up With You Following everyone on Suggested left a screen of Following buttons, and coming back showed them all as unfollowed again. It now refreshes on the way out with people you haven't seen yet, and your feed picks up whoever you just followed instead of waiting for a pull to refresh. Long Names Fit on One Line Feed lines like "@alex followed @someone" were cut off halfway across the row with empty space sitting next to them. The Gold Ring on Find Your People All Access members showed their mark next to their name but not the ring around their photo.
