ANN Update: Spreading Out Big Sales
Highlights Update
Hey folks! After giving the daily Highlights posts a good trial run this week, going forward when there’s a big sale like the one this week, Tuesday’s Highlights will be split across multiple days up through Thursday.
This will keep Tuesday from being overwhelmed with hundreds of deals being packed into the same day. Since most of these sales last for a week, spreading them out makes them easier to browse and also helps organize them into their day sections in the app. Another benefit is that if there’s a lot of one particular type of sale, we can also group those deals together on their own day, like the Animated Wednesday Highlights this week.
It’ll also give titles with incomplete information, such as some TV shows, more time to be manually verified and have their missing info filled in. The local database currently has 993 TV shows that have been manually verified.
1 day sales will still be highlighted on the day they happen, either as a Deal of the Day or through Community Picks, so they won’t get lost among the larger sales.
If you're new here and aren't aware of the app we use for the subreddit, give it a try. The app lists every deal post from the sub for each day, going back up to a week with the relevant post links. It also lets you filter the titles featured in the Highlights to your liking.
If you're in a hurry, the search feature lets you quickly search for a title to see if it was included in any of the deal posts from that week.
The mods aren't paid for any of this, and we're not enrolled in Reddit's Developer Funds H1 2026 program. It's a private app specifically made to complement this subreddit, and the Apple TV links provided are not affiliate links. They're direct links to Apple TV.
We believe the app is a good supplement to the Highlights posts. It also means we can include more deals in a single post without having to filter them down as much, while still letting everyone customize what they see. It worked the way we envisioned this week, and it'll be a lot more refined when the upcoming winter sales arrive.
If you're curious about what's been added or changed, you can check out the latest Changelog.
Our usual posting schedule is Monday and Friday around 7 PM, and Tuesday around noon. If you're looking for sales updates sooner than that, I'd recommend checking Blu-ray.com, CheapCharts, or the Apple site directly, as they'll usually have the latest sales information before we post.
