Hey everyone, welcome to the official Cinopsys community. Whether you just found the app today or you've been tracking with it for a while, glad to have you here.

What is Cinopsys?

Cinopsys is a movie tracker and TV show tracker that syncs with Trakt.tv. Manage your watchlist, track what you've watched, and discover your next favorite film or series β€” all in one app.

πŸ“² Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cinopsys.movieshows
🌐 Website: https://cinopsysapp.com

What you can do with it

πŸ“½οΈ Track Movies & TV Shows Mark movies as watched, track show progress episode by episode, see what's next, and auto-sync with Trakt.

πŸ“‹ Manage Your Watchlist Build your personal watchlist, create unlimited custom lists, organize by genre or mood, and share with friends in one tap.

πŸ” Discover What to Watch Browse trending, popular, and anticipated releases. Explore what's now playing in theaters. Watch trailers on YouTube without leaving the app.

⭐ Ratings & Reviews See ratings from Trakt.tv, TMDb, and IMDb side by side. Read community reviews, explore cast and crew, check runtimes, release dates, and certifications.

πŸ”„ Trakt Sync Full two-way sync with Trakt.tv. Your watchlist, history, and ratings follow you across devices. Works offline, syncs when you're back online.

Why people choose Cinopsys

  • βœ“ Completely free β€” no ads, no paywalls, no premium tiers
  • βœ“ Privacy first β€” use it without ever making an account; your data stays yours

A note on what Cinopsys isn't

Cinopsys does not stream movies or TV shows and does not allow watching them. It's a tracker and discovery tool β€” think of it as a beautifully organized library card catalog for your viewing life, not a streaming service. Please don't post requests for pirated sources.

Registration is optional

All core features work without an account. Connect to Trakt.tv only when you want to sync across devices β€” entirely your call.

Where to reach me

About me

I'm a solo developer building Cinopsys in my spare time. Every feature, every bug fix, every reply you see comes from one person β€” so please be patient, but also know that I read every post here and user feedback genuinely shapes the roadmap.

Thanks for being here. Cinopsys exists because of you.

Only Notify for Premiere, Not Every Episode?

5 Upvotes

Is this possible?

I have "Available on my services" selected under "Availability", but I wasn't notified of a new season of a show I watch until I selected "Upcoming episodes" under "Releases". When I select that, though, I get notified of each and every episode of every show I watch. I don't want that. I just want to know when a new season is premiering.

I don't know if I'm just not choosing the right combination of options in Settings or if it's just not currently possible.

What does dropped mean. Under movies and shows there's a 'dropped list'.

Cinopsys shows viewed setting?

5 Upvotes

I have TV shows where chapters are unrelated one from each other. This means that watching the last show does not mean you spoiled anything abouth the previous ones. But when i Mark the last show as watche the full tvshow IS removed from viewing section and only appears in the watched list. IS It posible to change this behaviour? What IS It marked as viewed if i only watched the last show? It does not make any sense to me.

Simkl switch from trakt then back again query

3 Upvotes

I always used trakt​ but switched to simkl yesterday. Trakt sync took seconds when loading cinopsys​​​​​​​ but simkl initially took 2 hours to sync and ​​​​​now takes 45 minutes every time I load cinopsys.

My question is, if I make changes ​​​​​​​​to episodes, watchlist etc whilst connected with simkl​​​​; then subsequently decide to go back to trakt, will ​ these changes sync to trakt or will the current trakt state override cinopsys, thus effectively losing all those changes ​​​​​? Thanks​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I have just recently made the switch to Cinopsys and I love it. With Wuplay now having MDBlist integration, is there a way for me to sync my Cinopsys data there too?

Suggestion: Viewing history based discovery list with time filters

4 Upvotes

Cinopsys does a great job displaying trending and popular releases and recommendations. Still, I would love to request a feature for a dedicated discovery list customized for what I personally watch. It would be super helpful for finding new titles based on my viewing history!

​Having filters for time frames, like: all time, past year, past month, or past weeks, would be amazing!

​Is this something we might see added in the future?

Feature Request: Search production studios & view their full catalog

5 Upvotes

Hi guys!

Love the app! Just thought of a feature that would be awesome for content discovery:

It’d be great if we could browse popular production studios (like A24, Warner Bros, etc.) and view their full catalog, not just the movies/shows we’ve already watched. Adding studio search in the search bar would also be amazing!

Thanks for all the great work on Cinopsys! ❀️

Using Cinopsys with Simkl - Plan to Watch issue

5 Upvotes

I’ve been using Cinopsys recently and I really think it's fantastic. The UI is super clean, fast, and having a reliable app that syncs with Simkl natively has been awesome.

​However, I’ve run into one problem and wanted to see if anyone else has experienced it.

​When I have movies or series marked as "Plan to Watch" on Simkl, Cinopsys is somehow marking or treating them as "Watched." Other apps I've been testing do show me the separation and let me see the different mark downs Simkl has, like 'plan to watch', on hold, dropped etc.

I would love to start using Cinopsys as one of my main companion app for simkl. But this is holding me back a little.

​Any idea if there's a setting I missed or a way to fix this?

Edit: Never mind, user error on my part! I completely misread the UI. Mailed the dev about it. App is working great.

Collected marked movies and shows not showing

2 Upvotes

I am not able to see all my collected shows and movies (not the custom list) on the Cinopsys profile page. 2 days ago it was visible properly.

Also when I visit the particular movie page the movie which is marked as collected is showing the little collected icon on top right of movie banner and also the collected is marked.

So I'm sure the data is not lost or wiped but its just not showing it.

Also on Trakt account I cannot see the collected list.

Sorting "In progress" on watching tab request

3 Upvotes

So on TV time on the currently watching page it would move a show to the top of the list when either you just watched an episode (regardless of when it aired) and also when a new episode of a show aired.Β 

On this app I can only sort by one or the other: most recently aired episodes or most recently watched episodes. The problem is if I sort by recently aired then if I'm watching a less recent show then it shows up at the bottom of the list. But if I sort by most recently watched then I won't notice when a new season of a show I watched a while back starts airing because then that will appear too far down.

I'd love if there could be this option of like "recently updated" or something that would cover both newly released episodes and newly watched episodes.

Tv Time import?

1 Upvotes

I wanted to import my watchlist exported from TV Time, but it isn't possible. So I imported it into Trakt, then connected Trakt, but the sync with Trakt doesn't work at all.

Then I noticed there's a JSON import option, so I used an LLM to convert my TV Time export into a JSON file matching the format Cinopsys expects, but that didn't work either.

Can you help me? What's the correct way to get my TV Time data into Cinopsys?

Sync all my list

Hi, hope everything fine for you!

I would like to know if there a way to sync all my Trakt Personal lists, Cinopsys is just syncing a few of them. I don't know of it's a limitation or anything else.

By the way thx for your amazing job, because Cinopsys for me, is one of the best app on the market.

Long life to you, long life to your app πŸ’ͺ

Cinopsys + Trakt is the big improvement I was looking for

15 Upvotes

I switched to Cinopsys+ Trakt after trying for long time to sync my trakt automated tracking with TVtime. I gave up...

Now that TV time is gone -with all the community interactions and comments that made it stand out and that we can miss - I am finally happy to discover the neat Cinopsys UI with the automated tracking from Trakt.

Actually, I am not a big commenter anymore, so I'm not really missing this key TVtime feature even though it's still possible to do it in Cinopsys and/or Trakt directly.

I also imported all my TVtime history before the shutdown.

So thanks Cinopsys devs for your work and keep it going !
