what is cinechrony?
A place to keep the films you find while scrolling. Share a clip, it pulls out every film in it with the ratings, and puts them on a list you share with friends.
is it free?
Yes. Web now, the iOS beta throughout, and free to download on the App Store.
can i get it on my iphone?
Yes, today, on TestFlight. Here is how. You need Apple’s free TestFlight app first, which is the bit that catches people out.
how does the scanning work?
It watches the whole clip, audio and on-screen text as well as footage, then matches each film to a real record. When it is not sure, it says so rather than guessing.
do my friends need the app?
For a shared list, yes. For a movie night, no: guests RSVP from the link and get a calendar invite rather than a signup form.
how do i delete my account or my data?
Settings in the app. It is immediate and cannot be undone, and the privacy policy has the detail.
