Coming from Letterboxd
Bring your films with you
Taste Buds reads what you’ve logged and learns your taste: across films, series, books, music and games, with the odds you’ll like what’s next. Your Letterboxd history comes over in about two minutes, so you start with a profile, not an empty page.
What comes over
- Every diary entry, with its date, rating and review
- Ratings without a diary entry, and films you marked as watched
- Your likes
- Your watchlist, which becomes your queue
How
- On letterboxd.com, open Settings, then Data, then Export your data
- Upload the ZIP here as it downloads
- Your history is matched in the background; your taste profile appears as it goes
What Taste Buds adds
- Books, series, albums and games on the same profile, so your taste is read across all of it
- The odds you'll like a film before you watch it, from what you've rated
- Buds: people whose taste runs close to yours, and how compatible you are with anyone
- A release calendar of what's coming, in your order
Worth knowing
- Letterboxd's community is far bigger; Taste Buds is new and in beta.
- You can keep both: connect your Letterboxd username and new diary entries come over from its public feed.
- We only read the file you upload and your public feed. Nothing changes on Letterboxd.
Free, and your Letterboxd account stays as it is.
