About Sift.
Stop scrolling, start watching. Sift finds you a great film in seconds — and helps you work through the greatest films ever made. Set your filters — genre, minimum rating, earliest year — and get a clean grid of posters sorted by rating. No flops, no obscure fan-vote flukes, no shorts. Just films worth your evening. WORK THROUGH THE CANON The Top 250 highest-rated films, every Palme d'Or winner, and every Oscar Best Picture winner — each one a checklist. Mark what you've seen, watch the progress ring fill, and filter to just the ones you haven't watched yet. BUILT FOR FAST DECISIONS • Hold and drag a poster: left for Seen, right for Not interested — they vanish from future searches, so results get better the more you use it • Tap the heart to save any film to your Watchlist • Search any title, browse an actor's full filmography with one tap • Trailer, cast, and where to stream — one tap from every poster YOUR WATCHLIST, REMEMBERED Films you save are there when you're ready, with a gentle weekend reminder so movie night actually happens. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No analytics. No tracking of any kind. Everything stays on your device — the App Store privacy label is "Data Not Collected" because we literally collect nothing. Free, for iPhone and iPad. This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB.
What’s new
Version 1.3.0 · Updated September 28, 2026
A redesigned Home: set the bar with genre, rating and year, or work through the greats. New lists with progress rings: Top 250, Oscar Best Picture and Palme d'Or winners. Filter any list to what you haven't seen. Search any film, actor or director. Mark films straight from the grid: tap the heart for your Watchlist, hold and drag for Seen or Not interested. Undo if you slip. See where a film is streaming, right on its card. Share a film as a picture. A rebuilt Saved tab with swipe actions, sorting and search. Properly supports iPad. Fixed: IMDB and Where to Watch links opening blank, and results stopping early.
