Lights Down

Settle in. We'll find it.

Lights Down helps you pick what to watch tonight. Say what you're in the mood for, and you get a short list of movies and series, ranked for you, from the streaming services you already pay for.

HOW IT STARTS Fifteen swipes. Like it or skip it. It takes about a minute, and at the end you find out which of twelve Cinematic Archetypes™ you are. You don't need an account to begin.

PICK A MOOD Light & Fun, Cozy & Comfortable, Scary & Suspenseful, or any mix of the seven. Lights Down builds a short list instead of an endless one. Every card shows where it's streaming for you, with the trailer and a link to watch.

WATCHING WITH SOMEONE Send one link and your accounts are linked. On a night together, you each check in on your own phone, and Lights Down asks you both a question to find the middle. Then it narrows the list with you: you each mark the shortlist In, Maybe, or Out, it tallies the vote, and the last two go head to head until one is left. A night together counts both of your streaming services, and it's free for both of you. Afterward, see where your ratings split, guess what they gave it, and leave each other a note on the night.

AFTER THE CREDITS Mark it watched and say how it landed. Your Watched tab keeps every movie you've seen, a night watched together gets its own ticket stub with both of your ratings, and every rating helps the next list fit you better.

TONIGHT'S VIBE Rather say it in your own words? Describe the night you want, like "something cozy, under two hours," and get picks that fit. Three searches a month come with a free account.

LIGHTS ON, IF YOU WANT IT An optional community side of Lights Down. Your ratings join everyone else's averages, and you can see how your picks compare with the rest of Lights Down. More of it opens as more people join. It stays off until you turn it on, and other people only ever see your username.

FREE, WITH NO ADS Everything you need to pick tonight's movie is free, and it stays free. There are no ads, and nothing tracks you across other apps. A few features, like Tonight's Vibe, are written with help from AI. The app asks before it sends anything, and you can turn it off in Profile.

CINEMA, IF YOU WANT MORE Cinema is extra, for people who want more. Everything free, plus a weekly list for you, a heads-up before saved films leave, and stats that keep growing. Cinema Duo: one membership covers both of you. Cinema subscriptions renew until you cancel them in your Apple Account settings.

Streaming availability changes hands constantly. We update it regularly, but we're not always perfect.
