Taste Evolution, made visible.

DNA Evolution now shows real trait momentum — growing, fading, or holding steady — backed by bigger, clearer evidence for every signal. The Movie DNA share card was rebuilt, and its Defining Films list was fixed to only ever show movies you've actually watched. Six pages went edge to edge, Saved for Later posters look sharp again, and a stale environment override that was silently breaking every AI-generated review got found and fixed.

Taste Evolution, made visible.

DNA Evolution now shows real trait momentum — growing, fading, or holding steady — backed by bigger, clearer evidence for every signal. The Movie DNA share card was rebuilt, and its Defining Films list was fixed to only ever show movies you've actually watched. Six pages went edge to edge, Saved for Later posters look sharp again, and a stale environment override that was silently breaking every AI-generated review got found and fixed.

FlixKeep · The evolution release

A read worth trusting.

01 · Taste Evolution

See your taste shift, in real time.

DNA Evolution now shows exactly which traits are rising, fading, or holding steady — not just a static read of where you are today.

01

Trait Momentum, new. Each of your top traits now shows a live trend — Growing, Fading, or Stable — backed by a progress bar comparing your last 45 days against everything before.

02

The evidence is bigger and clearer. The films behind a signal now show as full-bleed poster cards with a title and a specific reason, instead of a cropped thumbnail with a generic caption.

03

A cleaner path in. The redundant “Explore movies like these” link is gone — the evidence speaks for itself.

04

Copy that says something. Taste-signal descriptions were rewritten to be specific to what's actually happening in your taste, not generic filler.

02 · Movie DNA

Your DNA card, reworked.

The Kinetic Mind

The shareable card now leads with your archetype name at the top, in one line — the artwork and quote below finally get room to breathe.

01

A card that finally feels premium. The share card is bigger, the archetype name sits at the top on one line, and the description reads clearly instead of competing with the artwork.

02

Sharing lives on the card. The share action moved from a separate button to a compact icon directly on the card, freeing up the layout below it.

03

Your Defining Films, fixed. This list was quietly including movies you'd only swiped or saved — never watched. It now requires an actual watch, so the evidence behind your DNA is honest.

04

Your DNA travels with you. A small portrait of your archetype now appears next to your profile icon in the header and account panel, not just on the Movie DNA page.

03 · Layout

Every page, edge to edge.

Tonight, SmartLane, Movie DNA, Taste Evolution, Activity, and Saved for Later all got a pass to use the full width of the screen instead of sitting in a boxed-in column.

01

SmartLane fills the screen. The default lane now shows as many movies as actually fit your window, instead of a fixed count.

02

Saved for Later, sharper. Posters no longer look washed out, and watched titles now show just the film name — the rating and year, only useful before you've seen something, are gone.

04 · Activity

Your history, easier to scan.

01

Bigger, easier to read. Poster and text rows in Activity are larger, and each day's date label is now bold and gold instead of a faint gray tag.

02

Title case, not shouting. The page heading no longer renders in all caps.

05 · Feedback

Point at it, say what's off.

A new way to flag anything in the app directly, without leaving the page or filling out a form.

01

Mark, then explain. Open Shape FlixKeep, circle or highlight anything on screen, and add a note — it goes straight to the founder with a screenshot attached.

06 · Performance

Fewer calls, faster loads.

01

Duplicate requests, gone. Tonight no longer fires the taste-vector and streaming-providers calls twice on load, and a redundant watched-count call was removed.

02

A broken model override, found and fixed. A stale environment variable was silently forcing every AI-generated review onto an invalid model ID — every call was failing before it started.

07 · Under the hood

Housekeeping.

01

The old movie detail page is gone. Every entry point now opens the shared movie modal instead of a separate full-page route that had drifted out of sync.

02

Modals no longer fight the feedback pill. The account panel and the Import Watched Movies dialog could render underneath the floating Shape FlixKeep button; both now sit above it correctly.

03

Loading states match reality. Movie DNA and Taste Evolution's loading skeletons were rebuilt to mirror their real layouts, so pages no longer jump in height once data arrives.
