How it works

The Pickpile share sheet open over an Instagram reel: the caption names five
                    films and Pickpile has recognised all five — Past Lives, Aftersun, Anatomy of a
                    Fall, Everything Everywhere All at Once and Poor Things — ready to save into a
                    collection.
01

Share the reel

Hit share on any TikTok, Instagram or YouTube post and pick Pickpile.

The film page for Anatomy of a Fall: poster, year, runtime and rating at the
                    top, then a friends score of 4.8 from four ratings with each friend's stars and
                    quote, above an Add to watchlist button.
02

It finds the film

Pickpile reads the caption, identifies the title and pulls in the poster, rating and where to stream it.

The Pickpile watchlist: an 'Up next' card for Past Lives saved from Instagram,
                    below it a grid of saved titles including Aftersun and The Bear, each badged
                    with the app the reel came from.
03

Watch and rate

Mark things watched, give them stars, and never lose that one film you meant to look up.
