About Cineby

A familiar idea. A new, independent team. A place to find your next story.

Our independent restart

Cineby, with a new chapter ahead.

We are a new team building Cineby.hot as an independent revival of the Cineby viewing experience: a clear catalogue, useful details and personal space for the stories you want to return to.

The earlier Cineby service was associated with addresses including cineby.app and later cineby.at. Reporting in August 2026 documented its shutdown announcement and a staged closure extending into early September. The former operators subsequently stated that they had no official alternative.

Our project is a fresh start by a different team. We see it as a continuation of the idea, not a transfer of the old company, its ownership or its accounts. Cineby.hot is not operated or endorsed by the former Cineby team. You should create or use an account for this service rather than expect an old account or watch history to have been restored.

Looking ahead

Our priorities for 2027

01 / DISCOVERY

Less searching. Better choices.

We plan to make it easier to compare picks by mood, available time and what you have already explored.

02 / YOUR SPACE

A more useful personal library.

We want to improve saved-list organisation and make returning to a series feel simpler across devices.

03 / EVERYDAY USE

Clearer updates and controls.

Our priorities include better catalogue corrections, clearer playback feedback and more accessible mobile navigation.

These are development priorities for 2027, not promises of features already available or fixed release dates.

Built around clearer choices

Our movie guide separates a release date from a catalogue addition. The series guide helps you judge the time commitment. The new-versus-popular comparison explains when each signal helps. If something gets in your way, start with Help or write to our team.
