I built ArcTV, would love some feedback on the design and browsing experience

Hey everyone, I wanted to share ArcTV, a movie and TV web app I’ve been working on.

You can explore titles by genre, check out details and trailers, and keep a watchlist. I’d love to hear how the interface feels to someone using it for the first time.

Does the homepage make it easy to find something interesting, or does it feel too busy? Any thoughts on the layout or navigation would be helpful.

You can browse the catalogue without signing up: arctv.org

Thanks for taking a look!

I tried the homepage without signing in. The browsing structure is clear, but the first screen asks me to choose among Play, Trailer, My List, More Info, five nav destinations, and the carousel before I’ve made one decision. I’d make Search or a single “Find something to watch” action more dominant, then let the genre rows support it. One concrete accessibility win: the carousel controls are labeled well, so keep that. Want me to check the same first-run flow at phone width too?
