Usually when you want to find a film to stream online, you need to search through all the different streaming services or google.
Both of these can be quite awkward.
If a film or TV show isn’t available anywhere, you would then need to repeat that same search at an arbitrary later date.
Viewfinder allows you to create a ‘watch list’ of films/TV shows which will show you where those are available to stream. The app also displays where the film / TV is available.
