10 quick questions to help us build Showbuff better

We're building Showbuff to make deciding what to watch easier. Your honest answers will help us understand what actually works — and what's broken in the current app.

The Questions

1. When you sit down to pick something to watch, where do you usually start?
(e.g., Netflix home screen, Letterboxd, a text from a friend, a list in your notes app, etc.)

2. What's the last thing you watched that you really loved, and how did you find it?

3. What's the last time you spent more than 15 minutes scrolling and gave up? What happened?

4. When a friend recommends something, how do you remember it? Do you write it down, screenshot it, trust your memory, or something else?

5. What's your biggest frustration with the apps you use now to track or find things to watch?

6. Have you ever looked at a friend's list or ratings to decide what to watch? If yes, what was helpful about it?

7. What would make you share a recommendation with someone else? (e.g., easy sharing, seeing that they watched it, knowing their taste, etc.)

8. If you could wave a magic wand, what's the one thing that would make deciding what to watch 10x easier for you?

9. Showbuff currently lets you track, rate, and share with friends. What's missing or confusing about that?

10. Anything else we should know about how you decide what to watch?
