flickd is the go-to app where film & TV enthusiasts like you can come together to connect, discuss & track what they watch, as well as easily get tailored recommendations across film & TV, in one single place.
Hi 👋🏻 I am the founder of flickd.
After 10 years at Amazon I decided to leave the company and dive into my passion for film and TV to create the app that I, and many other film and TV enthusiasts, were missing in their lives.
As a film and TV lover I was struggling with:
1/ Filtering out the noise from traditional social media to focus on updates from TV and film topics only (looking at you Instagram, X, Thread, TikTok)
2/ Tracking what I am watching in one single user friendly friendly space (IMDb has stopped in time, Letterboxd is movies only and not user friendly, TV Time and TrakT are overwhelming and don't foster real connections)
3/ Knowing where to watch that show (hey was it on Disney+, Netflix or...?)
4/ Asking what friends are watching and recommending (enter WhatsApp and iMessage)
5/ Discussing specific scenes with others (Reddit I love you, but not for this)
That's why I created flickd, a seamless, clean, intuitive experience for film & TV lovers to track what they're watching, know where they can watch it, follow friends, post ratings and reviews, stay up to date with upcoming releases, and access the full catalog of millions of TV and movies online.
This is only just the start! I hope you like it!
@matildeneffe what a brilliant idea! as someone who loves art, this would be a great place to hang out. you could have included anime as well. anyways congratulations on the launch
@ajay_jagtap1 thanks Ajay! There is a lot of anime on there too, but we're thinking about a dedicated space for it as well if that's what users want - we'll let the flickd community decide. Look forward to seeing your recommendations on flickd ;)

Finally! I am getting my friends on this app and starting a surveillance state until they finish watching my excellent recommendations.
I genuinely like the concept, though, it can give rise to some pretty niche communities when this reaches a certain scale. Very usable and clean too :D
@uttiya_roy2 thank you Uttiya for your feedback :D I love the surveillance state idea, I tend to want to make my friends watch what I am watching too. I am so eager to discuss it! The good thing with flickd is you can just find other people to discuss it with easily. You're right about scale, that will bring us a whole other set of challenges. But we're ready!
@matildeneffe looks cool and upvoted! Is this available in countries outside of the U.S.?
Also, are there differences in user behavior between TV and movie enthusiasts? Just curious since I would personally love to discuss stuff about movies and not so much about TV shows!
@realrubyyyy thank you so much, looking forward to your thoughts and your flickd recommendations! 😀

Hi Matilde!
It wouldn't be the first and last time that, as a movie and series enthusiast, I would call a close friend to ask for the best movie or series recommendations. Here on this app, I can follow that friend, see their ratings and opinions on the movies and series they've watched recently. The app is intuitive and functional, following the Instagram/Twitter style of features, which makes it easy to use.
I wouldn't mind to interact on a website as well!
@carolina_durao thank you Carolina, so good that you get what flickd is about! And noted on the web support, we have it on our roadmap too. Keep the flickd recommendations coming!

Whoa! 🤯
What a great idea! 👏
Matilde, way to go! Such an excellent job at solving your own problem (I’m sure, along with SO MANY others, as well…) it all looks so good, feels great exploring the product, while sounding like a product I’ll be (…umm somehow 🤷🏼♂️⏰😴😬) spending a decent portion of my own time with - hopefully, long into the future! So, thanks for the fun resource! 🙏🏼 😬
But, above all, it’s just so cool this ‘sure-to-be’ successful project is all within your own passion!
A win, win, and a definite WINNNNNN! ✅
Good luck & CONGRATS ON THE LAUNCH! 🚀
😀 PSSST - ONE LAST THING:
Please don’t hesitate to reach out if I can, in any way, lend a hand from a marketing standpoint - it would be my absolute pleasure!
Best wishes!

I haven't been that excited about a B2C social media app since... Never actually. I love films and TV series. I love connecting around them. Reddit and IMDB were not doing that, or not well enough. This is it!
I've been using it everyday since signing up. Super clean UX/UI, simple features done well (movie watchlist, ratings, discussions). Love that you can control your news feed with just the people you follow. Congrats on the launch!!
