About OnTheList: Film & TV Watchlist
One list for everything you want to watch. OnTheList keeps every film and show you mean to get round to in a single place, whether it's streaming tonight, showing at the cinema this week, or still months away. WHERE TO WATCH, WITHOUT THE HUNT See available streaming, rental and purchase options in one place, with links to provider apps or websites where available. Check cinema availability alongside them. PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF Track the episodes you've watched and see what's Up next across your shows. Check your progress at a glance, then open the episode list when you need more detail. A HEADS-UP FOR YOUR NEXT EPISODE Get episode alerts for shows you're watching, so it's easier to keep up with your favourites between busy days. BRING YOUR HISTORY WITH YOU Import your watchlist, what you've seen and your ratings from Letterboxd, Trakt, TV Time, Simkl, BetaSeries or Refract, episode progress included. Or paste a list from anywhere: your notes, a spreadsheet or a message from a friend. OnTheList untangles bullets, numbering, years and rating text to help match your titles and remove duplicates. BUILT AROUND WHAT'S ACTUALLY OUT Your list is grouped by what's streaming now, what's in cinemas and what's coming soon. Narrow it to films or TV, or star a few favourites for your Shortlist when you want something for tonight. SCORES AT A GLANCE IMDb and Letterboxd scores sit right beside the age rating, with a tap to read more. SHARE WITH THE PEOPLE YOU WATCH WITH Add friends by QR code or a link. See their lists, spot the things you both want to watch, and stop having the same "what shall we put on?" conversation every night. SEE WHAT YOUR FRIENDS ARE UP TO The Activity tab shows what friends watched, rated and said, plus news about your own list. Comment on any title or episode, with friends or with everyone. KEEP TRACK OF WHAT YOU'VE SEEN Mark things watched and give them a quick reaction. Your Seen list builds itself, and your recommendations get better as it grows. CINEMA MODE Heading out to see something? OnTheList can recognise cinema trips in your calendar, remind you at showtime and prompt you for a quick reaction afterwards. Calendar matching happens on your device without uploading your calendar. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Widgets put your Shortlist, upcoming releases and next episodes where you'll actually see them. A Lock Screen widget keeps your next release a glance away. MADE FOR IPHONE AND IPAD Search for your next film or show without leaving The list on iPhone. On iPad, browse your list alongside recommendations, cinema picks, titles to watch with friends and things you've seen but not yet reacted to. Open title details without losing your place, or explore a friend's list beside the Friends roster. Keyboard shortcuts and trackpad support make browsing easier. Free, no ads, no subscription. Availability information is supported for the United Kingdom and United States. Streaming subscriptions, rentals and cinema tickets are separate.
