Swipe to decide
One movie at a time. Right for the watchlist, left to move on. That is the whole interface.
POV: 40 minutes of scrolling, zero movies watched. Just swipe right and hit play already.
‘Flick: What to Watch Next’ came from a very specific stage of parenting: when getting the kids to bed meant we had approximately one tiny window of freedom before we passed out too.
We finally had time to watch something… but then spent half of it scrolling through movies and shows, clicking into titles, reading descriptions, backing out, and starting over.
By the time we picked something, one of us was usually already falling asleep — and that was me, 100% of the time.
So I built ‘Flick: What to Watch Next’ to make choosing something feel a lot faster and a little more fun. And if you’ve ever used Tinder, the swiping will feel very familiar — right if you’re interested, left if you’re definitely not.
No endless lists. No opening twenty different titles just to read what they’re about. Just swipe through, save what looks good, and actually get to the part where you watch something.
Because when you finally have a free evening, you shouldn’t spend half of it choosing the entertainment.
One movie at a time. Right for the watchlist, left to move on. That is the whole interface.
Pick the services you subscribe to and the deck never shows you something you cannot actually watch.
Every right swipe stacks up into a list waiting for the next free evening.
Full title search for the nights you already have something in mind.
Flick: What to Watch Next is an iOS movie and TV discovery app: a shuffled deck of titles drawn only from the streaming services you already pay for, so you swipe instead of scrolling menus.
Swipe through the deck, keep what looks good, and let the watchlist build itself — deciding tonight takes seconds, not forty minutes.

Search assumes you know what you want. Most movie nights start without that — why one-at-a-time yes/no beats the infinite grid.
