Cinema Time

If you would like to test the next version of Cinema Time, here is a Testflight link. I'm updating the app for iOS 16, adding lockscreen widgets, Shortcuts support, and support to view watch history per movie. testflight.apple.com/join/prtbcetS

@rjorge77 Of course, invite sent 😄

@Movie_App Hi. Can i join testflight? 😁

New build has been sent out over Testflight, updating the app for iOS 16, and fixes ratings not appearing. Lock Screen widgets, stats, and more are in the works

Many thanks to all 3rd party app developers for their patience until we brought the @traktapi back online. Please give them some love and positive reviews in the app stores.

@NemesisPrimeG1 I feel a lot better about my apps now 😄 I do have a lot of features I want to implement, but happy that I’ve done a well enough job that it has lasted. A lot of new features and support for Lock Screen widgets and shortcuts will be on the way

@Movie_App I had thought you deliberately pulled out the scores it used to show. But yeah, I miss seeing those to see how my ratings compare 🙂 Unrelated, but whatever you did for Trakt syncing in Television Time is nuts! I was afraid it wasn’t working, but it’s just 100x faster, lol

Back in development

@NemesisPrimeG1 I’ll look into that. It could be that the data changed and so the decoding is failing, or some other API issue. I’ll get to the bottom of it 😁

@Movie_App It doesn’t need much, it’s almost perfect already 👍 I do miss seeing the other ratings (like RottenTomatoes and IMDB scores) on the movie details screen

What movies have y'all been watching recently?

@kraigschmidt I would love to support this but need to find a source that makes sense. In the past the ones I’ve found all wanted thousands of dollars which is not something I have or make.

@Movie_App Or perhaps at least providing some way of differentiating in-theater releases from streaming releases? Basically I have zero interest in going to a theater. I want to know when & where I can stream the movies I’m interested in — especially on my services…

Cinema Time 2.0.3 is now out with widget support

@kraigschmidt Sorry to hear! Could you send me that backup file to support@cinematime.app and I can try to get that fixed?

@Movie_App I have a backup from 2018; whenever I try to import the backup, the app thereafter crashes every time and I have to delete it and re-download. 😟

@timweston That is correct, the movie data will needs to be updated on Trakt website first, and made available through the API to reflect the date change. But this should happen without having to remove data.

Sorry for the lack of updates recently. I've taken a break to relax in my free time to ensure I don't burn out. I'm still working on an update to add support for homescreen widgets, and that's almost complete.

@cb60089 Yeah, perhaps I’ll include an option to remove it. My thinking is that it will be needed to tell the widgets apart because you could add a bunch of them to view movies from different lists vs upcoming vs recently watched.

@Movie_App Don’t need title over or under cover art. number over image is a good design for widget. Simple design better

Making some progress on widgets. Can pick any list from the app and customize the sorting and filter options.

Homescreen widgets are in the works and will be coming soon as well.

Hope y’all are enjoying Cinema Time. If you are, please consider leaving a review as it really helps, and spread the word of Cinema Time 😁

Cinema Time 2.0.2 is out with a new ratings interface, search results include year below title, improved transition between dark / light modes, and more. Please leave a rating / review if you’re enjoying the app, it really helps. - Max
