Help for Deal Hunter

Quick answers

Where do the prices come from?

Buy and rent prices come from Apple's public iTunes Search API — the same prices you see on the Apple TV app. No Apple sign-in is needed.

How do price-drop alerts work?

Add a movie to your Wanted list and set your thresholds in Settings. Deal Hunter checks prices in the background and sends a notification when a movie drops to a deal price, whether that's to buy or to rent.

What is the Wanted list?

It's the list of movies you're hunting a deal on. Search the TMDb catalog from the Deals tab, tap add, and Deal Hunter starts watching that movie's price.

Why sign in to TMDb?

Signing in is optional. It lets Deal Hunter back up the movies you've marked as purchased to a private list in your own TMDb account, so your library survives a new phone or a reinstall.

How do I delete my data?

You can clear your library from Settings, and if you signed in to TMDb you can delete the app's private backup list and your account link there too. Everything else lives only on your device and goes away with the app.

Good details to include

• Your iPhone model and iOS version.
• Which screen had the issue.
• What you expected to happen.
• What happened instead.
