Teasy for film lovers: never miss a trailer again

You know the feeling. You're at a friend's place, or scrolling through social media, and you catch a glimpse of a film that looks incredible. You want to know more, you want to see the trailer, you want to keep track of that film. But then the moment passes and you've already forgotten what it was called. Weeks later it's in cinemas — and you missed it.

Teasy is for people who know that feeling and are done with it. You don't need to be a professional cinema programmer to benefit from a film trailer app. Whether you go to the cinema every week or only venture out for a special film: Teasy helps you keep up with what's coming to cinemas.

The problem with film trailers today

Trailers are published on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, cinema websites, streaming services and news sites. There is no central place to keep track of all upcoming films. The result: you discover films by chance, based on whatever the algorithm happens to serve you. And algorithms optimise for engagement, not for your film interests.

It is also hard to keep track of your own reactions. Maybe you saw a trailer three months ago that got you excited. But do you still remember the title? Is it already in cinemas? Have you already missed it, or is it still coming? Without a system to track these things, it is guesswork.

Teasy provides that system — and makes it as simple as possible to use.

Keep up with new cinema trailers

Teasy helps you keep up with cinema trailers from 35 channels. The Inbox supports that: it shows new trailers you haven't watched yet. They're sorted by date, with the most recent at the top. You don't have to check each channel yourself.

New trailers are marked as unread, so you always know exactly what you haven't seen yet. You can watch a trailer directly in the app, or save it for later. The choice is always yours.

Rating: mapping your own taste

Teasy has a simple rating system. After watching a trailer, you give it a score from 1 to 5 stars. That sounds simple — and it is, deliberately. The barrier is low enough that you actually use it.

But over time this builds something special: a personal film archive that reflects your taste. You can look back at which films excited you, which ones disappointed you and which ones you have already seen. That archive becomes more valuable the larger it grows.

Already seen that film? Mark it as watched and add a short note if you like. That way, a year from now you'll still know exactly when you saw it and what you thought.

Saving and finding again

The save feature in Teasy helps you remember films that catch your eye. You see a trailer, but don't have time to check when the film reaches cinemas. Save it, and it appears under Saved. When you have time again, you can find it there. Releases shows Dutch cinema dates: seven days ahead for free, or the full calendar with Premium.

You can find saved trailers under Saved. You can also give trailers 1 to 5 stars: under Rated, you can look back at what you thought. That keeps films you want to remember together, without creating separate lists.

Notifications: stay informed without being overwhelmed

On iPhone, Teasy can send you a notification for a new trailer from a channel you follow. New trailers usually appear within minutes of publication on YouTube. With Premium, you choose which channels to follow.

You can enable notifications on your iPhone for new trailers from channels you follow. Teasy doesn't use an algorithm to choose which trailers you see: they're arranged by date. With Premium, you decide which channels to follow.

What type of film lover is Teasy made for?

Teasy works for a broad range of film lovers, but there are a few profiles where the app really makes a difference:

The frequent cinema-goer who goes once a week or every two weeks, is always looking for something new and likes to know in advance what's coming. Teasy gives you an overview of what's on the way, so you make more deliberate choices and more often see exactly the film you want.

The selective film lover who goes to the cinema less often, but when they do, wants to make the perfect choice. With Teasy you build up a wish list over weeks of films you've rated highly. When you do make it to the cinema, you know exactly what you want to see.

The festival-goer or arthouse fan who is interested not just in blockbusters but also in international cinema, documentaries and smaller releases. Teasy also follows smaller distributors, whose trailers you would otherwise easily miss.

The film-talking social media user who enjoys discussing new films with friends. New trailers usually appear in Teasy within minutes of publication on YouTube. You can pass a trailer along using the share menu.

How does Teasy differ from Letterboxd or IMDb?

A logical question: there are already platforms for film lovers, like Letterboxd or IMDb. What does Teasy add?

The answer is simple: Letterboxd and IMDb focus on films that have already been released. They are fantastic for after-the-fact reviews, lists of films you've seen and recommendations based on your viewing history. But for keeping track of upcoming films — before they are even released — they fall short.

Teasy helps you look ahead. It's about films coming to cinemas, newly released trailers and releases you want to remember. It complements Letterboxd: there you track your viewing history, here you save and rate trailers for your next cinema visit.

Getting started with Teasy

With an account, you can use Teasy on your iPhone and through the web app. You can watch, rate and save trailers without checking individual channels first. For free, you get trailers from the past 30 days across all 35 channels. That lets you start with recent releases.

Teasy is available as an iPhone app and as a web app at app.teasytrailers.com, on computers, tablets and smartphones. You can download the iPhone app or use Teasy in your browser. Both use the same account, so you can find your saved trailers and ratings on another device too.

Trailers are a starting point for seeing what's coming to cinemas. Teasy brings together cinema trailers from 35 channels, arranged by date. Watch what catches your eye and save films you want to remember for your next cinema visit.

Going to the cinema is one of the finest experiences there is. A big screen, great sound, sitting in the dark with other people who are just as full of anticipation as you are. Teasy helps you see what's coming — chronologically, without an algorithm choosing what you see. You decide which film is worth a cinema ticket.
