Mastodawn

I have a new app out! It's called Star-Studded and it's a native Windows client for The Movie Database. You can search for movies, tv shows, and people; and log into your account to do all that, plus see your lists and add stuff to them.

It's free on the Microsoft Store. Windows 10 2004 (19041) and up.
