PhoneFlicks (was Netflix Manager) App Reviews
Featured Review
“A bit buggy. It often becomes unresponsive when trying to select titles and also says some titles are not available for instant watch when they are. However, loads titles quickly and the image quality isn't bad considering it's an iphone (probably looks even better on the new iphone). You can also watch over 3G, which is great. I probably wouldn't suggest watching over 3G however if you didn't get the unlimited data plan, it would probably kill your data usage allowance. I'm sure it works over wi-fi too, but I cannot confirm it since my router isn't compatible with apple products.
All in all, if you have netflix and an iphone/ipad, it's great. I thought it was going to be a bust, considering how long it takes a short youtube clip to load. But so far, I haven't been plagued with slow loading.
I'm sure the bugs will be worked out with future updates. And hopefully they'll add the ability to manage your queue.”

“amazing!!!! love it on my iphone and ipad!!!”
“Helpful for adding to my queues.
Don't use it much, though.”
“doesn't work so well without WiFi...I was hoping it would run fine at work...but it doesn't. But I do work under a sidewalk!”
“Haven't ever used it... :o)”
“standard home screen app”
“Extend your Netflix experience :)”
“This app was really handy before NetFlix came out with their own app for both the ipad and iphone cause it allowed me to add movies to my queue after catching a new movie trailer or mentions by friends. It's still useful for all these things but with the netflix app is far more awesome! Especially since you can watch TV Series DVD's and full length movies now from the device.”
“A must have on the iPad if you already have a Netflix account. Simple interface, easy to use, and the movies look great.”
“Works incredibly well, I like that it has the instant queue on standby, works best over wifi because it's bandwidth intensive.”
“Pretty great. No problems with it.”
“Well make an account on you computer first... makes it alot easier”
“this is probably the main reason why I use my ipad (well that and marvel comics app).”
“Couldn't use it in Mexico :l”
“Overall I prefer iPhlix for netflix queue management, but this one makes it easier to browser top movies in different categories and such. It was actually the first netflix app I had back on my old iPhone 3G so I'm happy they still keep it updated. Bottom line is that there are so many apps now that can manage your netflix queue you probably don't even need this one - but if you've got the space or a TV/Movies folder in iOS 4, it's not bad having available when you want to browse around.”
