Fresh off the reel

Moovo is now built around the people you love watching with, and it's ready for the couch too.

• Your people. Connect with others and call them partner, family or friend. Those words are yours alone, and what you share stays private unless you choose otherwise.
• Invite by name to Watch Together and movie nights. Your partner comes first.
• From your people. Home shows what the people you follow rated, finished and saved.
• Streaks for every pair and group. "7 weeks with Sarah", badges together, and Your Year.
• Movie nights with a lineup. Plan a few titles back to back; "Next up" starts the next one for everyone.
• Watch it together straight from Coming Up.
• Stream while it downloads. After a quick connection check, Stream appears next to Play and Download and starts in seconds, while the download keeps going in the background.
• TV mode. Press Ctrl+Shift+T for a big-screen Moovo: profiles with optional PINs, watching together from the couch, and control with arrow keys, a gamepad, a Bluetooth remote or another computer as a remote.
• Invite links that look good when you share them and open straight in Moovo.
• A nicer chat with emoji, that never pauses the movie, and keeps going during intermissions.
• Smoother sync, with far fewer little jumps, and the player shows who everyone is waiting for while they catch up.
• Skip credits, and a gentler end of the movie, one step at a time.
• Who left, who's back. Moovo notices when someone drops out and lets them hop back in.
• New soundboard sounds, real recordings, with the movie dipping softly underneath.
• Reactions your way. Clear your own, or hide everyone else's on a title.
• A Profile screen for your badges, streaks and year, and a shorter account menu.
• A short tour for new accounts, and What's new after each update.
• Clocks on home are now opt-in, and your time zone follows your computer.
• Downloads always open. A downloaded title opens and plays even when the server can't find it or can't be reached, and titles the server can't read right now are marked instead of vanishing.
• Movies and TV stay in step when the library changes while you browse, so the A to Z list always scrolls back to the top.
• Diagnostics. If something goes wrong, send your host a report in one click.

This update is required. It works with servers on 1.1 or later. If yours is still on 1.0, Moovo keeps working for 60 days while your host updates.

Friendlier wording when Moovo can't check for updates, plus small fixes behind the scenes.

Small fixes and tidying up behind the scenes. Nothing changes in how you use Moovo.

The first release of Moovo. Everything here is new, because everything is.

• Watch Together. Everyone plays their own downloaded copy, in sync to the frame. Tap Ready, count down, then chat, react and sit in a little cinema row of seats.
• Downloads that never give up. Queue movies and whole seasons. They resume after a pause, a crash, a reboot or a dropped connection, and play offline with posters and subtitles.
• Circles. Family here, friends there. Each circle gets its own watchlist, movie nights, streak and year-end recap.
• Movie nights show up in everyone's own time zone, with a nudge before they start.
• Requests. Ask the host for a movie or a show, and hear back when it's in.
• Soundboard and packs. Hit S and your laugh track lands for everyone at the same instant. Emoji, sound and avatar packs work offline too.
• Little games. Rate, then reveal. Guess the year when the credits roll. Earn badges together.
• The app is the admin. Hosts set up the server, invite people and look after the library, requests and packs from Admin.
• Updates install themselves, checked against a SHA-256 and our signature, and never in the middle of a movie.

Runs on Windows 10 (21H2) and 11, 64-bit, and on macOS 12 or later with Apple silicon (M1 or newer).
