Thanks for finally making a mobile app. Now to get on Android, but no rush.
James Whitelock
@mlsj1 Well, rush a little.

@jaywhitelock @mlsj1 True story :P

What's the difference with the Reelgood app?

@vkt0r The community on Letterboxd.com that's been around since '09.

@mrb @vkt0r I didn't think it had been that long, but I couldn't find the date so I just went off of the letterboxd twitter haha.

@bradenhamm @vkt0r Aha! We registered domains and other sundries well before launch.

@ourielohayon We do have that — it’s available to paid members through the web interface (http://letterboxd.com/about/impo...).
Ouriel Ohayon
@mrb i would strongly recommend you make it available to all.
david
@ourielohayon @mrb i wouldn't use it, but seems like a way of making it easier to the folks wondering about making the change from imdb to letterboxd
Matthew Buchanan

@ourielohayon Thanks. It makes more sense to be available to all once the API is public.

Finally! This has been my favourite way to track movies for a long time and I hated logging in to the mobile site.

Been a pro member for some years and love the site and community, but the web (mobile even worse) is usually suuuuuper slow. Let's all hope this works slicker.

@davidesquimal We’ve added capacity all round and will continue to improve this daily.
Sebastian Haselbeck
@davidesquimal always found the mobile site working better than most mobile sites, but yea it could be better
david
@mrb gotta say that after a few days of testing the app works reeeeeally smooth! well done guys!
Mark Smith
Hooray, looks great! Are you still planning to publish the API?
Matthew Buchanan
Maker
@mjmsmith Yes we are. We have some work to do to prepare terms of use and technical things like key generation and rate limits but it’s a key focus now the app is out.
Mark Smith
@mrb Good news, thanks.

Have been a Pro member of the community for a few years and always have a browser tab open with it to look up, rate, review, and add films to lists. With the app it makes it so much easier for me to look things up all the time and the app is working great for me so far.

Been a happy user of Letterboxd for ages. So glad to have a mobile app now!

I've been primarily using the mobile site on my commute to work since I first joined Letterboxd years ago. This is long awaited. And they NAILED it. A lot of complexity in this little app but it's simple to use.

Woohoo, finally a mobile app for my favorite movie site! Looks and works great. The loading times are a bit slower than expected, but I'm sure you will be optimizing it in the future. Everything else is pretty smooth. My iPhone 6s running iOS 9.0.1 gets really hot while using the app, though. There is high CPU activity which eats up the battery pretty quickly.

@dubstrike We have a lot of performance improvements coming in the next release.
Jared Armstrong
Awesome first release! Taken a while, but worth it! Congrats guys.
Lee Wynne
Where have you been all my life? Just dropped MooVee for this, amazing community, the lists and liking them Is brilliant

My favourite new movie site letterboxd now finally has an phone app. Long awaited for this waiting for Android version.

What I miss is: filter and info about availability on streaming or downloading services

@olekeding Both planned for a future update.
