FIND SOMETHING WORTH WATCHING

A Browse Page That Actually Filters

Movies and TV shows live in one unified grid instead of two separate apps. Sort by rating, popularity, or release date, filter by decade or an exact year, and switch languages between English only or everything. A dedicated Coming Soon view covers whatever releases in the next six months, and a global search box works across every genre and media type at once.

22 genre tabs, including

Documentaries Reality TV Sci-Fi & Fantasy Crime Horror Drama Animation History Comedy and 13 more

SILO (2023)

Weavarr Score: 8.4

High confidence, 42,000+ combined votes

TMDb 8.2 IMDb 8.7 Rotten Tomatoes 92% Metacritic 74 Trakt 87%
Ongoing

EVERY DETAIL, ONE PAGE

Everything You Would Want to Know Before You Hit Play

A full hero layout with backdrop, poster, tagline, runtime, and content rating. TV shows get a live production status badge: Ongoing, Ended, Cancelled, or In Production. The Weavarr Score blends TMDb, IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, and Trakt into one composite number with an honest confidence indicator, so a score from fifty thousand votes reads differently than one from twelve. A trailer button finds the best available YouTube trailer automatically, and Where to Watch shows real streaming, rental, and purchase providers. Full synopsis, cast, director, and awards round out the page, alongside the same Request and Delete controls used everywhere else.

SIMPLE ON THE SURFACE

One Click for the Casual Watcher

Anyone in the house can request a movie or show. Hit Request, done. No menus to learn, no config screens to understand, and no accidentally grabbing a sixty gigabyte remux by mistake. Weavarr checks what you already have first, so requesting something already in the library shows a Delete button instead of erroring out.

  1. Search or browse for a title
  2. Pick a season, or leave TV shows at the latest one
  3. Hit Request
  4. Optionally check "Download highest quality"
  5. Sent straight to Radarr or Sonarr, with a search triggered immediately

Default Profile

Everyday

Used automatically for every request. No thinking required.

Highest Profile

On Demand

One checkbox away, only when you actually want it.

Advanced override. Pick an exact profile for a single request, or for a whole show's future downloads from the Library, without ever opening Radarr or Sonarr directly. For a show already in Sonarr, a one-off quality pick temporarily switches the whole series to that profile, waits for the search to actually finish, then switches it back automatically.

DEFAULT OR HIGHEST, YOUR CALL

Two Quality Tiers, Set Once

Configure a Default and a Highest quality profile per service in Settings, tested live against your own Radarr and Sonarr before they are ever used. From then on, every request just works. Check the box for highest, leave it for default. Nothing is guessed and nothing is hardcoded.

MOVIES AND SHOWS, ONE PLACE

Manage Every Season, Every Episode

The Library merges your Radarr and Sonarr catalogs into a single searchable list. Movies show file size on disk with one click delete. Shows show a color coded status badge (Continuing, Upcoming, Ended, or Deleted) plus episode file counts. Expand any show for full season and episode control: download a whole season in one search, delete a season entirely, or handle a single episode, all without leaving the page.

NEVER WONDER WHAT IS GOING ON

One Place to See Everything In Motion

A live dashboard, a curated watch queue, and a cleanup engine that only speaks up when it actually knows something.

Status Dashboard

Refreshes every few seconds. Your combined SABnzbd and NZBGet queue plus separate Sonarr and Radarr queues, sorted so stuck or errored items surface above ordinary downloads. A Manual Import button only appears on items that genuinely need it.

Ready to Watch

Everything downloaded and unwatched across movies and TV, cross-referenced against Plex or Jellyfin. Mark watched or delete right from the list, plus a Recently Watched feed showing exactly why each item qualified.

Smart Cleanup

Flags an episode once it is actually watched, or sitting at 90 percent or more with the threshold configurable in Settings. Shows on an exclusion list are never flagged, and already-deleted files are silently skipped.

MORE FEATURES

Everything Else, Handled

The smaller pieces that add up to not thinking about your media server at all.

Weavarr Score

A composite rating blending TMDb, IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, and Trakt into one number, weighted so a handful of votes on one source never drowns out a well-established rating on another.

Favorites, Watched, Sucks

Three independent triage lists that follow you across devices. Marking something watched removes it from favorites automatically, and sucks clears it from both, keeping the three lists honest.

Watched Sync

Mark something watched on Plex and Jellyfin catches up on its own, running as a background job every few minutes so the two servers never drift apart.

Pushover Alerts

A phone notification the moment something new finishes importing and is confirmed present in your media server, not just sitting queued somewhere.

Live Connection Testing

Every integration, Radarr, Sonarr, Plex, Jellyfin, and more, can be tested for real before you save a setting that does not actually work.

Automatic Backups

Every settings save backs up the previous configuration first, keeping the last ten copies, so a bad change is always one restore away from undone.

In-App Restart

Apply settings changes with a button in the browser instead of connecting to your server directly, with a live check confirming the app came back up.

Custom Navigation

Reorder which genres and pages show up in the top menu, and in what order, with changes applying immediately and no restart required.

Combined Downloaders

SABnzbd and NZBGet merge into one queue view, each item tagged with which client is actually handling it, so there is never a second dashboard to check.

Smart Queue Sorting

Stuck and errored downloads surface above ordinary in-progress ones automatically, so the item that actually needs attention is never buried.

Global Search

One search box covers every genre and both movies and TV at once, not just whichever tab happens to be open at the time.

Self-Hosted and Private

Runs entirely on hardware you control. No accounts, no subscriptions, no analytics, and nobody else's cloud involved.

Built to Run on Your Own Hardware

No accounts, no subscriptions, no telemetry. Configure everything, API keys, quality profiles, and menu layout, from one Settings page, backed up automatically before every change.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Weavarr?

A self-hosted front end that sits in front of Radarr, Sonarr, your downloader, and Plex or Jellyfin: one simple interface for requesting and managing media instead of juggling several different apps.

Does it replace Radarr or Sonarr?

No, it talks to them. Weavarr handles the "what do I want to watch" side of things, while Radarr and Sonarr still handle searching, grabbing, and organizing files exactly as they always have.

Can different people get different quality settings?

Yes. Set a Default and a Highest profile once in Settings, and anyone can toggle "Highest Quality" per request, or use the Advanced picker for a one-off custom profile on a single request or download.

What happens if I request something I already have?

Weavarr checks the real Radarr and Sonarr library first, so requesting a title you already own shows a Delete button instead of erroring out or adding a duplicate.

How does the Weavarr Score actually work?

It starts from IMDb when available, corrects for low vote counts using a documentary-genre baseline, then blends in TMDb and Trakt at a capped weight so a handful of extra votes can nudge the score without overriding an already well-established rating.

What do I need to run it?

Radarr and/or Sonarr, a download client such as SABnzbd or NZBGet, and optionally Plex or Jellyfin for watched status sync. Everything else is configured from the Settings page, and each connection can be tested live before you rely on it.

Is my data sent anywhere?

No. Weavarr runs entirely on hardware you control and only talks to the services you point it at. There is no external account, no analytics, and no cloud dependency.
