Movie Snob ranks a viewer’s films instead of asking for star ratings. After logging a movie, the app compares it with titles already on the list and uses a few “which did you prefer?” choices to place it. Users can import Letterboxd or IMDb history, keep a watchlist with personal notes, browse a poster wall, and review statistics by genre, decade, or director. Recommendations come from the user’s own ranking rather than a general chart. The app is free and supported by non-personalized advertising, with no subscription listed. Lists sync through iCloud and stay private by default; optional friend sharing can be enabled. It is an iPhone app for tracking and discovery, not for streaming movies, and requires iOS 18 or later.
