CloseCut Journal showing recent watch memories and controls to add past watches — Your private watch history, ready to revisit.

A quieter place for your taste

A rating remembers the score.
A Journal remembers you.

Most movie apps focus on public ratings, feeds, and reviews. CloseCut focuses on what a title meant to you and what you want to remember.

Private Journal

Keep the memory behind the title.

Build a personal watch history with moods, notes, tags, quotes, verdicts, watch context, and cinema details. Entries begin private and stay yours until you explicitly share them.

Rich memories, not public performance
