Streaming availability current as of April 2026
In the US, movie night does not start with picking a movie. It starts with opening Netflix, then Hulu, then Disney+, then Prime Video, then HBO Max, then Peacock, then Paramount+, then Apple TV+, then the free app that came with the smart TV, then the other free app nobody remembers installing.
By the time everyone has checked their own watchlist, argued over whether a limited series counts, rejected three perfectly good options, searched for the login, debated ordering food, and said “surely there’s something on here”, the snacks are half gone, the soda is flat, and nothing is playing.
MatchWatch is a free movie matching app for couples, families and roommates in the US. Everyone swipes separately on personalised movie and TV suggestions, and when your group agrees, MatchWatch shows exactly where to stream it in the United States.
No app download. No overseas-only results. No more bouncing between ten services like the next one is magically going to save the night.
How it works
Everyone in your household gets the same deck of movies and shows, personalised to the streaming services you actually pay for. You swipe on your own phone. Right for yes, left for no. Your choices stay private.
When two or more of you swipe right on the same title, the app tells you it’s a match and shows exactly which service has it. Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, Disney+, whatever you’re paying for. Press play. That’s the whole thing.
Every major US streaming service in one deck
Unlike some movie-matching apps that only cover a handful of platforms, MatchWatch supports all the services Americans actually use. No suggestions for titles you cannot access. No results from services that only exist in another country.
Supported US streaming services: Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, Disney+, Prime Video, Apple TV+, Paramount+, Peacock, and more.
Not just for couples
MatchWatch supports groups of up to 6. Roommates who have never once agreed on a single title in three years of sharing a living room. Families where the kids want Moana again and the adults want something that was not made for children. Friend groups trying to plan a movie night over FaceTime without it turning into a forty-five minute group text.
For couples, both need to swipe right for a match. For groups of three or more, roughly 60% agreement gets you there.
