I’m not entirely sure in which use case I’d use this over the main site. I feel like it’s too limiting and simplistic.
- it obscures relevant info while browsing for no good reason (eg. airing dates (which show for upcoming episodes but the info then disappears once you have the entry open)).
- “out now” is just my watchlist sorted by release date
- “upcoming schedule” is all shows airing that are part of my profile (collected, etc.) regardless of it I actually started it.
- no check-in option? only “mark as watched”
- why is the “remove from watchlist” button so prominent on movies?
- only being able to navigate sideways is inefficient
- the check for “remove as watched” is a bit slow - high chance of duplicates if you click it too quickly (instead of a removal)
- “up next” takes 5s+ to load in for me
- no movie posters at all when opening an entry while in regular vertical phone mode? odd decision.
imho anyone who just wants a “deck” to quickly do multiple things would probably only use the TV section to keep up with their shows. movie navigation is cumbersome and results in you having to use the search bar anyways.
so I’d suggest giving the TV shows more space and maybe redesign the movie section to be more interactive - give me random suggestions (from my watchlist), let me quickly filter by platform/genre/duration/year, etc.
