Most apps ask what genre you want, then hand you an endless list. FlixMe starts from the feeling you're chasing: mark it in a quick check-in (under a minute) and it gives you films that deliver that — not a catalog to scroll. Every film shows its emotional profile and where to watch it: streaming, in cinemas now, or acclaimed classics. As you swipe it learns, and you can steer the tone, genre, or re-aim the feeling anytime. No account needed — free on Android, in English and Spanish.

Hey Product Hunt 👋
I studied film and I write code. I run a small software studio — fuix.cl — and I build apps and games on the side under sabino.cl. FlixMe is one of those, living right at that film-and-code intersection.
The conviction behind it: a movie isn't good or bad in a vacuum — it's good when it meets you where you are. You can bounce off The Godfather Part II because you showed up wanting Adam Sandler, and love a silly comedy that would've felt hollow on another night. Same film, different you. Yet every recommender still sorts by genre, cast, or watch history — never by the feeling you're actually chasing.
So FlixMe starts from the feeling. You mark it in a quick check-in — under a minute, built on a map of emotions instead of genres — and it gives you films that deliver that, each with its own emotional profile and where to watch it: streaming, in cinemas now, or an acclaimed classic.
The idea sat in a drawer since 2017 — I kept assuming it needed months of work and a budget I didn't have. It also got simpler as I built it: the first version tried to read your current mood and "match" it (there's real psychology to matching vs. shifting an emotion), but people didn't want to report how they felt — they wanted to choose how they want to feel. So it became one promise: tell us the feeling you're chasing, we'll find the movie. It learns as you swipe, and you can steer the tone or re-aim anytime.

It's still under active development — I'm tuning the recommendations from real usage, so your feedback genuinely shapes what comes next. I'd love your take, especially: does the feeling you pick actually match what you get?
