GFAM Movie Checklist Hack 3.1.1 + Redeem Codes

It takes forever to load and half the time doesn’t, so I just shut it off. The ability to switch from movie title to description etc is difficult and takes way too long. It should be at least as easy to use as the Hallmark app but I was thinking it should actually be better since it only has a few movies in it so far. I found the three years of movies difficult to navigate and again it should move quickly back and forth. Also it would be nice to see drop down menus. Be excellent not below standard and definitely - don’t just be like the others. Be better. It doesn’t look like much effort was used here. I deleted it previously and hope I won’t need to again because I am trying to give the network a real try at following it. I know it is only in year three BUT it is in year three people. Thanks for letting me share. I hope you are successful.

I just downloaded the app and went through marking movies. Here is what I encountered:

1) some of the header pictures included the title (most helpful after being interrupted) and some just had a link stating ‘Watch Preview’ (not helpful at all).

2) When finished, I clicked on Discover heading and checked out all the tabs. There is an issue with the Christmas tab. I missed selecting and updating three movies. All three were listed under ‘Watched’ heading. To me they should have been listed under ‘Want to Watch’ or listed above and not under either heading.

3) When I selected ‘My List’, I get 16 movies to watch and 0 watched so naturally the percent would be 0. If I counted correctly, I’ve watched 15 movies and want to watch 16 movies.

4) Not necessarily an issue but very interesting that the debut year listed on some of the movies isn’t the actual year the movie was released.

Also, under settings, an option needs to be added for updating location for scheduling the movies. Currently if someone moves to a different time zone, the current scheduling would not work for them.

And hopefully you will be adding non Christmas movies to the app.

As a movie lover, I’ve been wanting an app for GAC movies for years. I use the apps for several other channels, as well as IMDB, all the time. I keep track of movies I want to see, movies I’ve seen, and have a list of my favorites. I like to use the app to check the schedule for movies I want to see. The glitches make that difficult. It’s a multi step process to add movies to either list (watchlist, or watched). Every time I select a movie and add it, I have to tap the back arrow multiple times, to return to the list. The list also collapses and I have to re expand it. It’s not difficult, just repetitive and not user friendly. I’d also rather see all the movies, not just Christmas and not just by year. I really hope they can get a focus group together, or some app testers, to make some much needed improvements.

Okay, hate the app is rather strong but it is so frustrating. The multiple taps to select the movie then load more, find a movie, tap it to choose add to watch list tap to add to calendar. Tap back to movie, tap back lo list, start at the beginning and have to scroll all over again including LOAD MORE because it doesn’t go back to where you were. All of this while waiting for the little dancing “loading” balls circling the drain again and again and again… between each tap. After watching a movie choose watched…circling balls again….then tap reviews then tap reviews then tap reviews only to discover they do not work.
Please fix this app. It feels so unprofessional, like it was a grade school programming project. Sorry this seems so harsh but you try using it and see what we mean.

It’s great that you have the movies by year/category, but continually having to click load more to go down the list is annoying, especially when trying to initially set up what you’ve seen vs want to watch. Based on how frustrating it was to click on movie, select, check I’ve watched, hit back arrow (twice vs once) then be brought to top of list to hit more multiple times to get to bottom, I’d say your developers haven’t used their creation. Not sure if plans, but may want to take note of how Hallmark Movies checklist allows you to add all new premieres to your watchlist with one click (vs manually checking off each)

Oh, forgot to add that some of the links to trailers don’t work—get error message

I downloaded this app so I could keep track of movies I’ve seen and want to see etc. you have to open every movie individually and it takes FOREVER to load, then after checking either that I saw it or want to see it, I have to click the back button and wait for the page to load once again! Very frustrating app! The movies should be all seen on one page with buttons to click right there beside the names. You should only have to click to open if you want more detailed info. PLEASE fix this!!! I don’t want to bring up the ‘other’ Christmas movie channel, but their app at least works quickly and is way more user friendly.

I was excited when I saw there was an app to follow the movies. When I went to the movies, I’ve already watched it was a very slow and painful process. Walking movies that I’ve watched did not update the want to watch an already watched tabs. Today I’m trying to get the app to send to my calendar and that doesn’t work either. I tried logging out of my account and then I was going to log back in to see if that made any difference with my calendar. I forgot my password and I’ve asked for an email to reset my password five times and I still haven’t received an email. beyond frustrating.

The way this is designed makes it very cumbersome to use. Multiple clicks to get to the screen where we can select to add it to the watch list. And then the same to select that we’ve watched it.

Just give us the list of all of the movies and the ability on that list to add the to our watchlist. If we want to click on an individual movie to see more details about it, great. But don’t make us go multiple screens I. Just to add them one at a time. You’re making it way more difficult than it needs to be.

If it stays this way, I may delete the app since it’s too much unnecessary work. And that’s a shame since I want to watch your movies and this would be an ideal way of getting notifications.

Slow, slower, slowest. I can’t use this all until it gets a serious upgrade. The movie list is agonizing slow to load. The load more takes forever, or doesn’t update at all unless you hit it multiple times.

Don’t even get me started on the painstaking process of adding movies to the “I’ve watched list”… this app needs work to even become useable sadly. As a very wary GAFM fan… aka I really don’t love the movies but I’m willing to give some a chance… I was hoping to find some of the great ones that have slipped through the pile of not good ones at all. But I can’t revisit this app without having a mental breakdown. Hopefully this has a few iterations coming and a major pep in its step…

So excited to have this app with all movies, not just Christmas. You can read the summary of each movie along with viewing the trailer. You can add it to your watchlist as well, and mark once you watched it (which then removes it from watchlist to watched). I know there’s probably room for improvement and the dates are not updated yet, so you cannot add to your calendar, but what’s vital is there right now and once the kinks are worked out it will definitely be 5 stars.
