OnRegardeQuoi

Status: Maintained | Version: 1.5

OnRegardeQuoi is a free, open-source, and minimalist web app that helps you discover movies and TV shows through their trailers.
It takes its name from the French phrase On regarde quoi ? meaning What are we watching?
The goal is to provide a simple and light trailer-focused experience, not to replace more comprehensive movie databases.

🎯 How Content is Selected

OnRegardeQuoi uses specific filters for each category to ensure high-quality and relevant content, such as a minimum rating or vote count. This is why listings may differ from those on the main TMDB website. These criteria will certainly evolve over time (feel free to share your thoughts on this matter; I'm clearly open to suggestions!).

🔒 Privacy Policy

  • No Personal Data – There is no collection, storage, or transmission of any information, and no cookies or trackers are used. Only the privacy friendly script GoatCounter is tested (which is blocked by uBlock Origin anyway 😄)
  • Local Storage – Movie and TV show data cached locally on your device for performance. Can be cleared anytime from browser settings or the app's "Refresh ↻" button
  • Third-Party Services – Videos stream via YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com), subject to YouTube's privacy policy obviously..
