Question 3

Accepted Answer

Getting started is easy! Download the app from the Google Play Store, then search for a movie or show you want to watch and open it to see where it is streaming. Add anything you are not ready to watch yet to your watchlist.

Question 4

Is StreamGuide available on my device?

Accepted Answer

StreamGuide is currently available on Android devices through the Google Play Store. iOS version is coming soon. Our development team is working hard to bring StreamGuide to more platforms in the near future.

Question 5

Do I need to create an account to use StreamGuide?

Accepted Answer

No, you can use StreamGuide without creating an account, and your data will be stored locally on your device. However, creating an account allows you to sync your data across multiple devices.

Question 6

Does StreamGuide show where to stream content?

Accepted Answer

Yes, StreamGuide shows you which streaming services have the movie or TV show you're looking for. This information is powered by TMDB and varies by region. You can see available streaming options on each title's detail page.

Question 7

Does it tell me if a title is included, or only available to rent or buy?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each title separates the options: services where it is included with your subscription, and services where it is available to rent or buy. That way you can tell at a glance whether something costs you nothing extra tonight.

Question 8

Can I filter by the services I already pay for?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Mark the services you subscribe to, and StreamGuide highlights what you can watch right now without paying again — instead of opening five apps in turn to find out.

Question 9

Can I open a title directly in the streaming app?

Accepted Answer

Where the provider supports it, tapping a service takes you to that title so you can start watching. If a direct link is not available, StreamGuide sends you to the service so you can search there.

Question 10

How frequently is streaming availability updated?

Accepted Answer

Streaming availability data across 50+ countries is refreshed daily via TMDB integration. You can see up-to-date information on whether a movie or TV show is available to stream, rent, or buy on platforms like Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV+, and Disney+.

Question 11

Does StreamGuide contain affiliate links for streaming services?

Accepted Answer

StreamGuide provides direct links to streaming services for user convenience. When you click a provider link, StreamGuide may receive a small referral fee from partner services at no extra cost to you. This directly supports independent app development and continuous content database updates.

Question 12

Which streaming services does StreamGuide cover?

Accepted Answer

StreamGuide covers the major services in each market — including Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV+, Max, and Paramount+ — alongside regional providers and rental or purchase storefronts. Which ones appear depends on what is actually available in your country.

Question 13

Why does availability differ from country to country?

Accepted Answer

Streaming rights are sold per country, so the same film can be on one service in Germany, a different one in the US, and unavailable in a third market. StreamGuide shows availability for the region you have set, which is why a title you saw abroad may not appear at home.

Question 14

Can I check availability for a different country?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Change the region and StreamGuide shows the providers for that market instead — useful when you are travelling, or checking whether something has landed in your country yet.

Question 15

Why are streaming providers showing incorrect information?

Accepted Answer

Streaming availability data comes from TMDB and may not always be 100% accurate or up-to-date. Streaming rights change frequently between providers and regions. If you notice incorrect information, you can report it to TMDB directly, and we'll receive the updated data.

Question 16

How does StreamGuide track my movies and TV shows?

Accepted Answer

StreamGuide uses TMDB (The Movie Database) to provide comprehensive information about movies and TV shows. You can search for any title, add it to your watchlist, and mark episodes or movies as watched. If you create an account, your watch history syncs across your devices.

Question 17

How do I discover new content?

Accepted Answer

StreamGuide offers several ways to discover new movies and TV shows:

1. Browse trending and popular titles updated daily
2. Explore new releases and upcoming titles
3. Get personalized recommendations based on your watch history
4. Filter by genre, year, rating, and more

Question 18

Can I track individual episodes?

Accepted Answer

Yes! StreamGuide allows you to track individual episodes of TV shows. You can mark entire seasons as watched or go episode by episode. The app shows your progress for each show and highlights which episodes you still need to watch.

Question 19

How do I manage my watchlist?

Accepted Answer

Your watchlist is your personal collection of movies and shows you want to watch. To add a title, simply tap the bookmark icon on any movie or show detail page. You can view and organize your watchlist from the main navigation. Remove items by tapping the bookmark icon again.

- Basic account information for authentication

Question 28

Accepted Answer

If you create an account, your watch history is automatically synced and backed up. This ensures you won't lose your data if you change phones or reinstall the app. Local-only users should consider creating an account for backup purposes.

Question 29

Why is a movie or TV show missing from the database?

Accepted Answer

StreamGuide uses TMDB (The Movie Database) for content information. If a title is missing, it may not yet be in TMDB's database. You can contribute to TMDB by creating a free account at themoviedb.org and adding the missing content. It will then appear in StreamGuide.

Question 30

A title shows no streaming options at all. Why?

Accepted Answer

That usually means no provider currently carries it in your region — often the case with older films, or new releases still in cinemas. It can also happen if your region is set to a market where the title was never licensed. Check your region first, then try again later, as rights change regularly.

Question 31

The app is running slowly. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

To resolve performance issues, try these steps:

1. Make sure you have the latest version of the app installed
2. Restart the app and your device
3. Clear the app cache in your device settings
4. Ensure you have a stable internet connection

If problems persist, please contact our support team at  with details about your device model.
