How to import your IMDb ratings and watchlist into CineFR
IMDb lets you export your ratings and your watchlist as CSV files. CineFR reads both as they are.
Step by step
- On imdb.com, open Your ratings, use the menu on that page and choose Export. Do the same on your Watchlist. IMDb may take a moment to prepare each file; you'll find it under Exports in your account, ready to download as CSV.
- Sign in at cinefr.com. Importing currently works in the browser, on a computer or on your phone.
- Open Settings → Import from other platforms and choose a CSV file. Repeat for the second file.
- Check the summary and tap Add.
What comes across
- Ratings file: every rated title goes to your Watched list.
- Watchlist file: titles go to your Watchlist.
- Movies and TV shows are both recognized. Single episode entries are skipped.
- Not included: the score you gave each title.
Good to know
- The file itself isn't uploaded. Titles are looked up on TMDB and only the matches are saved to your account.
- Accounts have a storage limit. Very large histories are imported partially, newest titles first.
