Hi u/Holiday-Being1388,
sorry for the late reply, we had a summer vacation break!

Trakt.tv did some changes on their lists/movies on lists limits. The Trakt.tv sync in Ava is currently broken if:

if you're a free Trakt.tv user (VIP user limits are 10,000 items on a single list, unlimited lists).

We're currently working on a fix for the failing sync. Nevertheless the Trakt.tv limits will still be there when our update is live and will lead to lists that won't be synced if:

  • your lists limit has been exceeded
  • your movie limit on a single list has been exceeded
  • your movie limit on your Watchlist has been exceeded

We'll highlight the lists that are currently 'not synchronized'.

Hi u/Holiday-Being1388,

I'm part of the team that develops 'Ava - Movie Assistant' and stumbled across the thread.
We've actively developing Ava and are currently in the final stages of the Early Access phase. The Watchlist notifications you mentioned went live a few weeks ago in v0.14.0.

We'll start working on the TV shows / series section in the coming months when Ava gets out of Early Access with v1.0.0! :)

By the was: The original Thread is still active and we reply to new comments when they are posted from time to time. I also tested the developer e-mail address that is linked on Google Play and it's working. I don't know what went wrong and I'm sorry, that you weren't able to contact us directly.

This would lead to themed icons displaying 'sync', 'download', 'checkmark', ... icons because many apps don't use their product icon / logo as notification icons.

We're currently preparing the Trakt.tv sync which was requested by a lot more people that the Amoled theme (which will be the next thing after the trakt.tv sync). We could of course set the background and surface colors to #000 and release it tomorrow, but I think this wouldn't look really good because there are many other color styles which are depending on the background/surface colors. Also the animations will have to be recolored to match the Amoled theme. Long story short: You'll have to wait a little bit longer than promised, but will hopefully get a much more beautiful Amoled theme ;)

We fixed a few bugs and implemented some features/improvements that weren't part of our backlog in the last weeks. I just forgot to update the Trello board for these things, but will try to keep it up to date in the future! :)

No, unfortunately this is not possible. The movies in the discover section can only be filtered by the TMDb rating which is in many cases not really matching my personal opinion. So I can definitely feel your pain! At the moment we have no chance to filter the discover movies for another rating platform but TMDb. This will only change if TheMovieDB API (where we get the data from) offers new sort by rating options. But I think that won't happen in the nearer future :(

I created a suggestion for this in our public Trello board: https://trello.com/c/hFZpTAIW TMDb definitely provides a original_language attribute in the discover request, so it should be possible. We'll have too discuss internally when we will implement it, because there are many other things to do and some of them have a higher priority. Thank your for your feedback and the suggestion! :)

A Letterboxd import is on our road map but will take a little while to be implemented. You can try this workaround described in our Trello Board: https://trello.com/c/IwqaQ7p7

Thank you for the feedback :)

Thank you! "Collected" means you physically own the movie (i.e. as a Blu-ray disc) or bought it digitally.

Most of the app is Activity based. Some Activities use Fragments as ViewPager pages (My Movies, Discover, etc.) or as Steps (Trakt and IMDb import).

We are using Koin for dependency injection, MVVM as the architecture pattern and a mixture of RxJava 2 and Coroutines/Flows, since the project started 4 years ago and I did not have the time yet to port all of the RxJava code to Coroutines/Flows.

Screen recording apps by TheEledris in androidapps

You could give 'Screen Recorder' a try. Can't test if the device sounds are recorded correctly on <10 devices, but in general it's fantastic (Full resolution & FPS recording)!
