When watching Netflix on TV, are you googling the title to get ratings?

My browser shows the IMDB ratings on the Netflix site. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/film-scores-f...

There is also w version for Chrome.

Netflix, Prime, whatever - before I watch pretty much anything I'll look up the IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes (critics & users - I'm happy to watch something with a low critic score and high audience score, it's probably super enjoyable trash) scores. Generally below a certain threshold I'll skip it unless I'm desperate.

Honestly, I wouldn't use an app. It seems like you're solving an already solved problem. I can type pretty much any film/show into Google and it'll give me all the cast, links at the top to RT and IMDB, along with a score for each etc etc. There's literally bar at the bottom of my phone screen to type into, with a microphone if I don't want to type.

We use IMDb quite frequently. If there was a better way to integrate that into virtually all of our TV viewing, I think we would do it.

But an app on my iOS device is not the solution. I’m not going to hold up my phone and have it scan the thing on my TV screen across the room, then rinse and repeat that action for every single thing we might watch.

Netflix is fairly high quality, as far as it goes.

But Amazon Prime is stuffed to the gills with shitty movies (and they only display the IMDB rating for some of them, not sure what the algorithm for that is), and looking them up all the time takes too much time :(

I think you misspelled Android...

Yep. All the time.
