It took us quite some effort, but we finally managed it: Movies for Android is released and available for download on the Android Marketplace.

As we had lots of people asking for Movies for Android, we started working on the initial version last year in August. Since we wanted the Android version to look and feel as any other Android app (and not as an iPhone clone to Android) we spent months on making the app pixel-perfect.

And now, over 6 months after the initial development, the first version of Movies for Android is out. And we love it. So if you own an Android device, and you want to have your movie collection with you at all times, you should grab a copy of Movies for Android now. Really!

Movies - the iPhone's flagship movie catalog app - now features movie playback including AirPlay support (to play your movies on your Apple TV or other AirPlay-capable device

Not only did we add movie playback, we also drastically improved scrolling performance for huge libraries ( > 4000 movies!) and added export to PDF as well.

We're proud to state Movies is the best movie catalog available on the App Store. It's loaded with tons of features to fit everybody's needs. Want to check it out? Go grab your copy now!

It's been a while, but we're working on a major update of Movies and Movies HD. The user interface of Movies is completely reworked, and both Movies and Movies HD will become universal (which means they will run on both iPhone/iPodTouch and iPad)!

We've been working really hard on adding new features to both Movies and Movies HD, and one of the most requested features was live syncing between Movies and it's iPad-brother Movies HD. With the universal app, we've finally added this! We've also added dozens of smaller enhancements and improvements to make your movie catalog even more pleasant to use.

Movies 3

We expect the update to go live by the end of December, as a Christmas present to all you out there!

Stay tuned!

Just like it's big brother Movies HD, Movies now supports trailer watching for all your movies!

We had some issues submitting the latest version of Movies to Apple - as Apple decided to not allow apps which use the pre-iOS4 functions for barcode scanning, but now our barcode engine is updated to support iOS4 and we're ready to roll.

Of course, we have worked hard on this update - and even though it's not packed with new features, it does contain some smaller tweaks and visual enhancements which will make your browsing experience even better!

Next on our release list are Movies HD 1.6 and Movies 2.3 which will support live syncing as well as some other major improvements.

Within 2 weeks after the initial release of iPhone 4 we updated Movies for iPhone to use the outstanding displaying features of iPhone 4.

Movies now displays cover art, as well the book shelf and all icons using the iPhone 4's native resolution, resulting in a crystal clear bookshelf. And we're already working on a new version of Movies, which will extend the current feature set yet some more.

So don't hold your breath, just grab a copy of the latest version of Movies for iPhone!

We’re currently working hard on updates to Movies, and one of them is support for iPhone 4's Retina display.

iPhone 4 Retina

Yes - we plan to release an update to Movies which supports to retina display of iPhone 4 in just 1 week time! Crisp graphics and an even more gorgeous experience then the one you enjoy today!

So stay tuned for App Store updates, and if you have any other suggestion - feel free to let us know!

Month after month, Netwalk continues to deliver new features to Movies - our flagship app: mark your movies as seen (or not seen) and easily filter on this field. One small step for man, a big step for mankind.

Together with this option, we introduced the possibility to refetch all movie details - in case you imported from a backup with limited information from a 3rd party movie application.

We're also working very hard on "LiveSync", the option which will allow Movies HD to synchronize its data live with Movies without needing your Mac or PC! We plan to deliver this feature by the end of May, so stay tuned for the future updates.

If you'd have suggestions for Movies (or Movies HD), you're welcome to share them with us (either on our forum, as a comment on this post, or by using our contact page)!

As the iPad becomes available in the US within less then a week, it's time we introduce our latest creation: Movies HD.

Just like our iPhone app Movies, Movies HD is a movie catalog application which allows to quickly catalog your complete movie collection. It allows to import from various popular desktop apps (like Delicious Library, Collectorz Movie Collector, Ant Movie Collection, Movie Label 2011, ...) or allows to create your library on-the-fly (using various data sources which allow to enter movies by barcode number or movie title).

Movies HD shows your movie collection in a graphically stunning way, giving you the ultimate iPad experience!

As the iPad is about to be released within a month, we are working very hard on 2 iPad apps which we plan to release just before the iPad launch.

One of them is Movies - our flagship app which is already available on the iPhone. As the iPad offers a whoppy 1024 by 768 pixels screen, this allows us to add lots of detail into the already gorgeous screens of the Movies app. Below you'll some screenshots of the early development stage of "Movies for iPad".
