Recommendations based on your mood tonight, not your history

Recommendations based on your mood exist because a taste profile only knows what you generally like. It has no idea that tonight you specifically don't have the energy for a six-season prestige drama.

Mood mode temporarily swaps your usual recommendations for titles that fit a specific feeling: chill, intense, romantic, funny, mind-bending, or background viewing. While it's active, match scores are hidden, so your mood decides what you see rather than your onboarding taste score competing with it. Turn it off and your normal recommendations come back.

Why taste and mood aren't the same thing

A taste profile is built over months from everything you've rated and watched. A mood is what you want in the next two hours, and it can flatly contradict your general taste on any given evening. Something built purely on long-term taste will keep surfacing the same kind of prestige drama it thinks you like, even on a night you want something you can half-watch while doing something else.

The six moods

Chill, for something light with no worries attached. Intense, for tension and drama with no fluff. Romantic, when you want love and feeling. Funny, pure humor and nothing else. Mind-bending, for twists, sci-fi and big concepts. Background, for something easy to half-watch.

What changes while a mood is active

The recommendation feed switches to titles that fit the mood you picked, and your usual match percentage is hidden for as long as the mood is on. That's deliberate: the match score reflects your long-term taste, and showing it alongside a mood-based pick would just create a contradiction on screen for no reason. Clear the mood and everything goes back to normal.

Questions people ask

Can I get recommendations based on my mood instead of my usual taste?

Yes. Mood mode lets you pick a feeling, chill, intense, romantic, funny, mind-bending or background, and the feed adjusts to that until you turn it off.

Why don't I see a match percentage while a mood is active?

Match scores reflect your long-term taste profile. While a mood is active, the recommendations are based on the mood instead, so the score is hidden rather than shown alongside a pick it doesn't actually describe.
