What is I Like Movies?

I Like Movies is a free, ad-free iPhone and Android app that tracks films and TV in one library, recommends titles from your own ratings with an AI assistant, and lets a household share one watchlist.

I Like Movies is a mobile app for iPhone and Android that combines a film and TV log with an AI assistant built to settle the "what do we watch tonight" question. Movies and series sit in a single library with one history and one watchlist, and TV is tracked episode by episode, including whether a show has actually ended or is only between seasons. The AI appears in two places. The Discover tab builds collections each month from the user's own ratings, favourite genre and the director or actor they return to most. The chat assistant takes requests in plain language: a mood, a half-remembered plot, or a film already liked. It knows what has been watched, so repeats do not resurface, and it can read a voice message or a photo of a title list. Streaming availability is resolved per country, so suggestions point to services that carry the title where the user lives. Social and household features set it apart from solo trackers. Users can follow friends, see what they rate and add, and compare taste. A household is a separate concept: everyone in it shares one watchlist and one watched history, so a film saved on one phone shows up on the others. Beyond that there are star ratings with private notes, custom lists, a viewing profile with hours watched, top genres and country breakdowns, and curated watch-order tracks for franchises. The app is free, carries no advertising or sponsored rows, and stores the library on the server, so it follows the user to a new phone. Imports accept a Letterboxd .zip or an IMDb .csv; Trakt, Simkl, Serializd and TV Time have no import path. It needs an internet connection and has no offline mode. Compared with Letterboxd, IMDb, Trakt or Simkl, it leans toward choosing something tonight and sharing a library at home rather than public reviews, reference lookups or automatic scrobbling.
