With so many streaming services available, endless scrolling has become the norm. Instead of wasting time cycling through Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney+, you can quickly find what you actually want to watch. There are tools designed to catalog everything available, letting you curate your viewing queue efficiently.
Aggregators: One-Stop Streaming Search
Apps and websites like JustWatch and Reelgood compile listings from major streaming platforms. These services allow you to search for specific titles or browse by platform, so you can see where a movie or show is available.
JustWatch offers a free basic search, with an optional $2.49/month subscription for ad-free browsing and advanced filtering. It displays viewing options, including subscriptions, rentals, and purchases.
Reelgood is entirely free, offering the same features without a paid tier. You can search by title, browse new releases, filter by genre, and create custom lists. Both platforms provide direct links to start streaming if you’re signed up for the right service.
Platform-Specific Trackers: Stay Updated on What’s New
For a single service, New on Netflix provides a comprehensive catalog of additions and removals. Though web-only, it offers email updates for personalized alerts when titles you want to watch arrive or disappear. The site is organized by new releases, upcoming additions, and the entire Netflix library.
The Power of Search: Google’s Hidden Streaming Tool
Even Google can help. Searching for a movie or show now displays a dedicated widget with cast information, release dates, and ratings. The “Where to watch” section provides direct links to streaming platforms in your region.
You can also personalize Google’s results by editing your streaming services to prioritize platforms you already subscribe to. The “Want to watch” button creates a basic watchlist synced across Google services, accessible via search or Google TV.
Finding what to watch doesn’t have to be random. These tools streamline the process, helping you spend less time searching and more time enjoying your shows and movies.
