Streaming guide showing which services carry a film or show, with price alerts and a watchlist.

Finding which service actually has the film is the problem JustWatch solves. It indexes more than 4,500 legal streaming providers worldwide, including Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, Hulu, Apple TV+ and HBO Max, and reports whether a title is on a subscription, free with ads, or available to rent or buy. Users pick the services they pay for and filter results by genre, release year or age rating. A timeline lists what's newly added each day, a Popular tab tracks trending titles, and Price Drops flags cheaper rentals and purchases. The watchlist syncs across devices with a free account and sends a notification when something on it turns up on one of the chosen services. A Play on TV button starts playback on the big screen. JustWatch TV, a free ad-supported streaming selection built into the app, is currently limited to ten countries including the US, UK, Canada, Germany and Australia. An ad-free Plus tier is sold separately.
The problem of working out which service has the film is what JustWatch exists to solve. Its index covers 4,500-plus legal providers worldwide, Netflix and Prime Video through to Disney+, HBO Max, Hulu and Apple TV+, and says whether a title is in a subscription, free with ads, or rent-or-buy only.
You choose the services you pay for and filter by genre, year or age rating. A daily timeline lists new arrivals, Popular tracks what's trending, and Price Drops flags cheaper rentals. The watchlist syncs across devices and notifies you when something on it appears on a service you have, and Play on TV hands playback to the big screen.
Someone mentions a film at work. On the train home you search it, see it's on a service you already pay for, and add it to the watchlist. On the sofa, you open the app, hit Play on TV, and the film starts on the television without a hunt through four separate apps. Over the weekend you scroll the daily timeline to see what was added, and a Price Drops alert tells you a rental you'd bookmarked is now cheaper. The app itself is rarely open for long; it's a dispatcher.
Streaming has fragmented to the point where remembering which service carries what is a real chore, and JustWatch is searched for by people who want one answer. The worldwide index matters for anyone outside the US, where availability differs. The free ad-supported JustWatch TV selection also draws people in the ten countries where it operates.
Poster grids with small provider logos stamped on each title are the JustWatch signature and will dominate its five screenshots, along with the timeline and a title page showing offers by service. Entertainment apps of this kind run dark to flatter artwork. It's information-dense by design, since comparing offers is the point.
Version 26.43.10 looks like a date-based or very high version scheme and in either case implies frequent releases, though there's no date in our data to confirm. A 4.7 from more than ten thousand reviewers is solid. JustWatch GmbH, a German company by its suffix, publishes it with only the App Store link attached here.
Multi-service households
Pick the services you pay for and every search is filtered to what you can actually watch.
Rental price watching
Price Drops flags when a bookmarked rental or purchase gets cheaper.
Non-US streaming catalogues
The index covers providers worldwide, so availability reflects your country, not America's.
Rated 12+ and free to use, with an ad-free Plus tier sold separately at a price the listing doesn't give. A free account is needed for the watchlist to sync across devices. The built-in JustWatch TV streaming selection works in just ten countries, among them the US, UK, Germany, Canada and Australia.
The core guide needs a connection. Play on TV depends on compatible hardware the listing doesn't specify. Ads appear in the free version by implication of the Plus tier.
Our take
Anyone paying for two or more streaming services should install this and set up the watchlist; it quietly removes a daily irritation. The Plus tier is only worth it if the ads bother you. People with a single subscription or who watch exclusively on one platform's app won't need it.
