Questions
Is there an app to pick a movie or TV show with the whole family?
Yes. ReelMatch is free on iPhone and Android. Each family member swipes trailers on their own phone, and groups of three or more can match together.
Does ReelMatch filter by age rating?
ReelMatch is for choosing together rather than a locked-down kids' app. ReelMatch Pro adds genre filters, and parental controls are set in your streaming service.
