Choosing a movie or series to watch together can be a time-consuming process, especially when trying to please several people. A new app, Queue, promises to solve this problem, taking inspiration from the dynamics of dating app Tinder, but with an aim to help groups quickly decide which films to watch.
Available as a website version or as an app for iOS and Android, Queue allows you to create groups with friends, family or partners. Within the platform, as explained by , users can select genres of films or series that they like, and then start “swiping” to indicate their preferences. Once all group members interact, the application presents suggestions based on common choices.
The central functionality of Queue is to allow decisions to be made democratically and quickly, avoiding long discussions. This approach can be especially useful in a world where streaming services offer a plethora of options but, paradoxically, make choosing more difficult.
While talking directly to the other person is always an option, this app offers a more practical alternative for when dialogue doesn’t work. The up or down voting system, like on Tinder, ensures that everyone has a say in the final choice, reducing frustration and increasing the likelihood of finding films that appeal to everyone, through this app.
The Queue platform simplifies the decision process and makes it more interactive. In the end, if the choice is not to your liking, the blame can be shared by everyone, as everyone contributed to the decision.
Queue is available for free download, promising to transform the experience of choosing group entertainment into a less stressful and more fun task. For those who have already spent a lot of time trying to find a film or series to watch, this can be a practical and innovative solution.
