FAQ

Questions, answered

Can I find a movie from a screenshot?

Yes. Upload a screenshot or photo of a scene and Cine AI analyzes it and suggests movies and series it could be from, plus similar titles.

Does it work for TV series too?

Yes — suggestions include both movies and series.

Will it always find the exact title?

Not always. Results are AI suggestions based on what’s visible in the frame, so a clear, well-lit scene works best. You’ll also get similar titles worth a look.

Is scene search free?

Search is part of the free app. Premium adds unlimited searches and AI recommendations and removes ads.
