Flicks App 2025

Content seekers experience these two pain-points: “what should I watch?” and “where can I watch it?”. These questions are increasingly hard to answer. The media landscape is flooded with shifting release patterns, different streaming platforms, and far more great content than anyone can stay on top of. People are often confused, out-of-the-loop, and frustrated. Flicks distils a wide range of data, from streaming sites and cinemas, and presents this in an application that is accessible and engaging. The challenge was to create a one-stop content destination to help people discover their next favourite movie or show.

Flicks collects data from 500+ cinemas and 30+ streaming platforms across Australia and New Zealand. Based on the content seeker’s decision-making processes, this is organised into easy-to-find listings, along with the trailer, rating, age suitability and opinion-led editorial. Delivered through an independent brand voice, friendly UX, with optimised user flows, Flicks helps users better decide if a given movie or show is right for them. Closing the loop, the Flicks app then displays location based cinema showtimes to book tickets or streaming options to find where to watch it.
