Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about accounts, watching, lists, and how CineStream works.

What is CineStream?+

CineStream is a web app for discovering movies, TV shows, and anime. Browse the catalog, save titles, and watch with an account.

Is CineStream free to use?+

Browsing and watching are free. Sign in only if you want watch history, My List, Continue Watching, and reviews saved to your account.

How do I start watching a movie or series?+

Open a title page and tap Watch now. For series, pick a season and episode from the list. Sign in later if you want progress saved.

Where does movie information come from?+

Metadata such as posters, cast, genres, and ratings comes from The Movie Database (TMDB). CineStream is not endorsed by TMDB.

Playback uses third-party sources. Try Player 1, Player 2, or Player 3 on the watch page, or Retry. Availability can change by title or network.

How do My List and Remind me work?+

My List saves titles you want later. Remind me builds a personal list on your profile; enable notifications where offered for alerts.

Does CineStream work on mobile?+
