WhatFilm

WhatFilm is a mobile utility that identifies movies from screenshots, photos, or a short description so you can stop asking "what movie is this?" Using AI-powered image and text recognition, WhatFilm names the film and returns the director, main cast, ratings and a full synopsis in seconds.

No account or subscription is required, and searches are stored locally for convenient later reference.
