How to See Where Your Letterboxd Watchlist Is Streaming (2025 Guide)

If you're a Letterboxd® user, you've definitely run into this problem:

You open your watchlist, find a movie, and then you bounce between five different streaming apps trying to figure out where it's available.

This guide walks you through the fastest and most accurate way to see where your Letterboxd watchlist is streaming in 2025.

Why It's Hard to Check Streaming Availability from Letterboxd

Letterboxd does not provide full, global streaming availability for every user. Here's how it currently works:

• Free users: No built-in watchlist-wide streaming availability.
• Pro/Patron users: Streaming integration via external providers like JustWatch on individual movie pages.
• Availability can vary by region and may not always be complete.
• There is no bulk "watchlist streaming" view.
• There are no notifications when a watchlist title becomes available to stream.

Most users end up manually checking:

• Netflix
• Hulu
• Max
• Prime Video
• Other apps, one by one

It works, but it's slow and easy to miss when something finally becomes available.

The Easiest Way to See Where Your Letterboxd Watchlist Is Streaming

The simplest method in 2025 is to use a tool that can read your watchlist and automatically look up streaming availability for every title.

WatchRadar+ is designed specifically for this use case.

How WatchRadar+ Works

1. Export your Letterboxd watchlist as a CSV file.
2. Upload it to WatchRadar+.
3. See where each movie is currently streaming across supported services.
4. Filter by the services you actually use (Netflix, Max, Hulu, Prime Video, Disney+, etc.).
5. Receive notifications when a movie becomes available.

Behind the scenes, WatchRadar+ uses TMDB provider data to check availability across 100+ streaming platforms, with continuous updates as catalogs change.

Letterboxd Pro vs WatchRadar+

Quick take: Letterboxd Pro is great for general use, while WatchRadar+ is built specifically to solve the "where is my watchlist streaming?" problem.

Manual Way: How to Check Streaming Availability Yourself

Step 1: Export Your Letterboxd Watchlist

1. Go to your Letterboxd profile.
2. Open your Watchlist.
3. Use the Export option to download it as a CSV file.

Step 2: Use a Streaming Lookup Tool

You can search individual titles on popular availability sites, but you'll generally need to copy/paste or type each title one at a time.

Step 3: Repeat Regularly

Because catalogs change constantly, you'll need to repeat the process every few weeks if you want to stay up to date.

That's exactly why many users prefer an automated solution instead of manually checking each movie.

Why Streaming Availability Changes So Often

Movies move between services due to:

• Licensing windows expiring.
• Studios reclaiming titles for their own platforms.
• Regional rights and distribution differences.
• Monthly catalog rotations.

All of this makes it very hard to keep a watchlist current manually.

Final Thoughts

If you only occasionally check a single movie, manual search or basic integrations may be enough.

If you actively use your Letterboxd watchlist and don't want to constantly jump between apps, automating the process with a dedicated tool can save a lot of time and frustration.
