Sorted: IMDb Ratings for Netflix & Prime Video, Hidden Categories

IMDb ratings on every Netflix and Prime Video title, 184 hidden categories and a one-key picker. 7 days free, then one payment.

IMDb ratings for Netflix and Prime Video, on every title, coloured by the thresholds you set. Everything under your lowest rating fades back. All 184 of Netflix's hidden categories, the "secret codes" people look up, one key away, each ranked best first with its Top 10. Can't choose? One key picks something good you haven't seen. Sorted remembers what you've watched and what you've marked Not for me. Free for 7 days, then one payment, no subscription. No account, no tracking. 98.8% of 430 real titles matched a rating. You pay for two streaming services and still can't decide what to watch. Sorted does one thing about that: it removes the friction from choosing and watching. Everything below is how that gets done: the IMDb rating on every title, Netflix's hidden categories unlocked, and a key that picks for you. None of them offers you something you've already watched. DECIDING IMDB RATINGS • The IMDb rating on every card, coloured by thresholds you set • Everything under your lowest rating fades back. Nothing is removed, and pointing at a faded card brings it straight back • Filter by rating, by type (films, series or shows), by genre, by original language (Netflix), by film length and by release year HIDDEN CATEGORIES • Netflix sorts its titles into 184 numbered categories, and its menus show a fraction of them. All 184 are one keystroke away, with no code to type • Open one and it arrives ranked by IMDb rating, best first, with its Top 10 on top: the best of the whole category, never one you've watched or marked Not for me. One press loads the whole category and ranks all of it WHAT YOU'VE WATCHED • What you've already watched on Netflix stays out of your picks and the Top 10, and fades on the page. Anything else you've seen is one click: Seen it, on a card, in Netflix's preview or in the Top 10 • Not for me does the same for anything you never want suggested • Settings lists all of it, and any of it can be taken back, one title or all at once PICK FOR ME • Can't choose? One key picks a title that fits your filters, with its rating, its length (for a series, the whole running time) and the language it was made in The pick is random, but two rules make it a shortlist rather than a coin toss. The draw is weighted. A rating from few votes is pulled toward the average first, so a 9.2 from 400 votes does not beat an 8.4 from 800,000. It draws from every title it has seen, not just the screen. A filter like "7.5 or better, a film, under 100 minutes" passes roughly 3% of titles, and 3% of one screenful is one title, often none. So Sorted notes every title on every page you open, and the pool grows large enough for a filter to mean something. To know every title, it also reads each service's own list of what is in each category, in your own signed-in session. This starts by itself once, a few minutes after your first visit. On Netflix it asks through a Netflix tab you already have open, or through one background tab it opens and closes again. If Netflix won't answer, it reads the category pages instead, in one window behind yours that says what it is doing, has a Stop button and closes by itself. On Prime Video it reads from the tab you are on, one page a second. Every read after the first is a button you press. It is not a recommender. It does not learn your taste or predict what you will like. It shows you the ratings and fades back what falls under the lowest rating you set, and what you have already watched. WATCHING Choosing is half the friction. The other half starts when you press play. On Netflix: • Skip intros, recaps and credits automatically. Credit skipping stays off until you turn it on • Playback speed from 0.25× to 4× with the keys, kept between episodes if you want • Subtitle size, position, typeface, colour and background. Only fonts installed on your computer are offered, so none quietly turns into another • Stop the hover previews and the billboard trailer from playing on their own • A frosted control panel over the player. Drag it anywhere, and double-click it to put it back. It fades when the mouse is still, like the player's own controls 98.8% COVERAGE, MEASURED Measured against 430 real titles from a live Netflix homepage, many of them not in English, the kind of title that matching by name gets wrong. 425 of the 430 matched a rating. Some titles go by another name on IMDb: the page says "Laapataa Ladies", IMDb says "Lost Ladies". 24 of the 425 matched under a different name. The badge tooltip names the IMDb title and year it matched, so a wrong match is easy to spot, and "Clear matches" in the settings looks titles up again. NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING, NO SERVER There is no sign-up, no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting and no server operated by us. Your settings, filters and picks stay in your browser. If you press Read my Netflix history, Sorted reads your Netflix profile's viewing activity so it can fade what you've watched; that stays in your browser too and is never sent anywhere. Apart from the streaming site itself, two kinds of request leave it, and neither carries anything about you: IMDb's public ratings files are downloaded from IMDb, and when a streaming service and IMDb name a title differently, that title's name is looked up with IMDb, once. Full detail in the privacy policy. Sorted never writes to your streaming account. No list is edited, nothing is removed, no viewing history is changed. It never reads or transmits your credentials or session, and it never reads the text of your subtitles; it only restyles them. WHAT WORKS WHERE Netflix: everything. Prime Video: ratings, filters, the picker, its own categories with a Top 10 and Load all, Seen it and Not for me. Tested on primevideo.com. Where Prime Video opens inside Amazon's own site, it hasn't been tested yet, so use the 7 free days to check before you buy. Nothing else is claimed. If it is not on this list, it has not been tested. PRICE 7 days free, everything unlocked, no card required. The 7 days are counted from the first time you open Netflix or Prime Video with Sorted installed. After that, you keep one pick a day. Everything else, the IMDb ratings included, needs a key. Unlimited picks, filters, all 184 categories and the player controls come with a licence key: one payment, not a subscription, with every future update included. Your settings are kept, so a key picks up where you left off. Keys are sold at showsorted.com and arrive by email with your receipt. If it isn't for you, email within 14 days of buying for a full refund, no questions asked. The price is on showsorted.com. Why it costs anything when there is no server bill behind it: streaming sites change their pages constantly, and keeping an extension working on a site that changes every week is ongoing work. You are paying for the upkeep, not for access to something you already have. KEYBOARD Shift+F: the filters (lowest rating, type, genres, languages, film length, release year, hiding what you've watched) Shift+G: the hidden categories Shift+P: pick one for me Shift+B: hide or show every rating [ and ]: slower and faster while playing, and \ goes back to 1× n: next episode c: hide the subtitles on screen The single-letter keys can be switched off in settings, separately from the speed keys.
