Movie Recommendation FAQs
How does Flickd recommend movies?
Flickd uses a 24-feature scoring system that evaluates every movie against your taste profile. It considers genre affinity, popularity alignment with your preferences, rating, recency, keyword similarity to content you've loved, and your streaming personality traits to surface movies you'll actually enjoy.
Can Flickd find hidden gem movies I haven't heard of?
Absolutely. Flickd's Discovery Pick is specifically designed to surface deep cuts and lesser-known films from your top genres and adjacent genres you might enjoy. If your personality type leans toward Hidden Gem Hunter, the algorithm weights obscure, critically acclaimed films even higher.
Does Flickd only recommend popular movies?
No. Flickd balances popularity with your personal taste. If you tend to enjoy mainstream blockbusters, you'll see more of those. If your swipe history shows a preference for indie or arthouse films, the algorithm adapts. Your 'mainstream vs indie' personality trait directly influences scoring.
What movie genres does Flickd cover?
Flickd covers every genre available on major streaming platforms — action, comedy, drama, horror, sci-fi, thriller, romance, documentary, animation, fantasy, mystery, crime, and more. It uses TMDB's comprehensive genre taxonomy with over 10,000 keyword tags for precise matching.
How do I tell Flickd I prefer movies over TV shows?
During onboarding, you can set your content preference to 'Movies' to weight the algorithm toward film recommendations. You can change this anytime in Settings. Your viewing habits also naturally influence the mix — if you consistently swipe on and watch movies, Flickd picks up on that.
