For more than a decade, I’ve been tracking every book I read on Goodreads, and I have no idea why it took me so long to start doing the same for movies. Maybe I just needed an app that’s as streamlined, fun to use, and feature-packed as Letterboxd. Available on the web or iOS/Android, it allows you to log, rate, and review every movie you watch, figure out where something is streaming, keep a watchlist, and more. Plus, you can follow other reviewers and get updates when they watch or review something new, which is a great way to discover new stuff (an increasingly pressing concern two years into a pandemic that’s still keeping me mostly at home). It’s free to use, but I’m thinking of upgrading to a Pro account ($19/year), which will remove ads and give me access to a few more features—and make me feel good for supporting an app I love.—Joel Cunningham, deputy editor
