Moviebase vs Cinopsys: Compare the library and the cost of extras.

Compare the library layout, supported platforms and the cost of tracking extras.

The short answer

Choose Moviebase if…

  • you use Moviebase on Android and Apple devices
  • you prefer its discovery and tracking screens

The trade-off: Viewing statistics and ad removal require Moviebase Premium. App-specific records from another service may not transfer.

Choose Cinopsys if…

  • you want the advertised free Android tracking and statistics
  • you use several supported sync services

The trade-off: The listing advertises no paywalls but has an in-app-purchase label; the purchase purpose is unverified. Connected services can impose separate limits.

Cinopsys currently advertises a free, ad-free movie and TV tracker with Trakt, Simkl and MDBList connections. Moviebase is free to download, with optional Premium. The meaningful differences are the interface, platform availability and connected services.

Questions

Does Cinopsys require a subscription?
Its current Play description advertises no subscriptions, ads or paywalls. Connected services can still have their own limits.
Can Cinopsys be used without signing in?
The publisher says core features work locally without an account, with optional service connections for syncing.
Will Simkl records automatically reach Moviebase?
Not simply because both apps can read a library. Verify a supported export or that the desired records are already in the Trakt account you connect.
Is Moviebase free to download?
Yes. Moviebase is available on Android, iPhone, iPad and supported Macs. It is free to download, with optional Premium for ad removal, viewing statistics and other extras.
