PocketFlix  
Updated Aug 13, 2009 by cyrus.na...@gmail.com

Put the power of Netflix at your fingertips! Download PocketFlicks today from the iPhone App Store.

With iPhone and PocketFlicks you can find movies and manage your Netflix information, all while on the go. Heard about a great movie from a friend of yours? Whip out PocketFlicks and add it to your Netflix queue with just a few clicks. You'll never forget about a movie you want to watch now!

With PocketFlicks you can:

  • Search for movies and add them to your DVD or Instant queue.
  • View and update your Netflix DVD and Instant queue.
  • Get Netflix recommendations from dozens of movie categories.
  • Add or update your ratings.
  • See the most popular movies in Netflix from any genre.
  • See gorgeous high resolution posters for many movies.
  • Visit related movie sites like Wikipedia and IMDb without even leaving PocketFlicks.
  • Purchase DVDs directly from Amazon.com

Note:

  1. A Wi-fi connection is highly recommended the first time you use PocketFlicks.
  2. You cannot watch Netflix's 'Instant Watch' movies from your iPhone. Of course, you can add them to your 'Instant Queue' to watch from a supported device.
  3. A Netflix account is required to use PocketFlicks

Apple has accepted the update.

Comment by froj...@gmail.com, Mar 10, 2010

Ok i have asked others but what is the star for in the right hand corner of the app? Not the rating stars further down but the one in the right hand corner on movie detail.

Comment by Swvan...@gmail.com, Mar 29, 2010

Is there any way you can stream down instant shows for viewing on my iPhone?

Comment by LwBrown...@gmail.com, Jul 10, 2010

Does not work on my iPad, which is a shame cuz it's /way/ better than Netflix's own for managing & rating...

Comment by jmasi...@gmail.com, Sep 17, 2010

Is there a reason why it says "over quota please try again later"?

Comment by lhanlyli...@gmail.com, Sep 27, 2010

Hi. I'm having trouble. At Home, Instant Queue and a few other things aren't updating. Any suggestions? :)

I had heard something about Netflix themselves preventing apps from accessing the queues. Wonder if that is why this has stopped working?

Comment by project member cyrus.na...@gmail.com, Mar 21, 2011

Hi All!

I've confirmed that there is a problem with the Netflix API system right now. I'm working with them right now on a solution. However, as I'm not a Netflix employee, I'm not privy to the details, nor do I know an eta on a fix (but I really hope it's in the 1-3 day timeframe.

I'm really sorry about this. Thanks for your patience.

Comment by lindasam...@gmail.com, Mar 26, 2011

FYI --- Still not working. :(

Comment by project member cyrus.na...@gmail.com, Mar 26, 2011

Netflix estimates the fix will go in on Monday. Sorry for this

Comment by GraniteB...@gmail.com, Mar 26, 2011

Thanks for the updates Cyrus! :)

Comment by lindasam...@gmail.com, Mar 30, 2011

Hi Cyrus. All fixed here. Thanks for everything. :)

Comment by project member cyrus.na...@gmail.com, Mar 30, 2011

The issue should be fixed now. Sorry for all the trouble people had!

Comment by skyl...@gmail.com, Apr 8, 2011

Any chance that there will be a retina display update some time in the future? The jaggies in the icon make me sad.

Comment by sil...@sbcglobal.net, May 2, 2011

Hi Cyrus. My queue is still showing "no items found". Is this problem supposedly fixed? If so please tell me what I need to do to have the fix work for me. Thanks.

Comment by maximusm...@gmail.com, May 15, 2011

Just bought this today and was disappointed to find it half broken. I can't make any changes to my queue, and th disc queue displays nothing. Why are you accepting money for a broken app?

Comment by project member cyrus.na...@gmail.com, May 15, 2011

Hi. To people running into problems, this wiki doesn't tell me your emails, so i have no way to contact you. Please contact me at cyrus.najmabadi@gmail.com so i can try to diagnose your problem. Otherwise i have no way to figure out what's going wrong.

Thanks!
