YTS

The YTS home page

The home page opens with the dark top bar: the YTS mark on the left, the Quick search pill in the middle and the links on the right, Home, Browse Movies, Latest, Trending, Top IMDb and Genres, with My List in a green-edged pill at the end. The bar stays at the top while you scroll, so search is always one click away.

Under the bar comes the hero. The backdrop of this week's lead film is blurred and darkened behind a large white headline and a short welcome, and the Popular Movies heading sits under a thin line with its small green square. Four framed posters complete the hero.

From there the page alternates two shades of charcoal, band after band. Each band has a white heading on the left, a grey Browse All link on the right, and eight posters in two rows of four on a wide screen.

Posters in white frames

The white frame is the signature of YTS. Every poster sits inside a five-pixel white border with softly rounded corners, and under the frame the title appears in bold white with the year in grey beneath it. Long titles are trimmed neatly so every row lines up.

Move the pointer over a poster, or focus it with the keyboard, and the frame turns green. The poster fades into the background and a caption rises in its place: a green star, the audience score out of ten, the first two genres in large bold type, and a green View Details button.

On a phone the frames keep their shape, two to a row, and a tap goes straight to the film page. The design stays the same across the home page, the lists, the genre pages and My List, so every film looks familiar wherever you meet it.

Popular Movies

Popular Movies is the showcase row at the top. It holds four of the films everyone is talking about this week: at the moment Spider-Man: Brand New Day, The Odyssey, Toy Story 5 and Project Hail Mary. The More popular link on the right opens the full Trending page.

The row is chosen by hand from the films with the most interest on TMDB, and it changes as new releases arrive. The backdrop behind it comes from the first film in the row, softened so the headline and posters stay easy to read.

Further down, Trending Now continues the story with eight more of the week's most popular films, leaving out anything already shown in Popular Movies or Latest, so every band on the home page brings something new.

Latest YTS Movies

Latest YTS Movies is the first band under the hero. It shows the eight newest films in the catalogue by release date, from studio blockbusters to smaller films that have just reached cinemas or streaming. Browse All opens the full Latest page, which lists every film newest first.

The latest band is where regular visitors start. New arrivals like UNABOMBER, One Last Shot, Primetime and Heart of the Beast appear here first, alongside family releases such as Toy Story 5 and Minions & Monsters.

The page Latest releases explains how new films move from cinemas to rental and then to subscription services, and how Watch now keeps up with each step in your country.

The other bands on the home page

After Latest and Trending comes Top rated, eight films with the highest audience scores, from The Shawshank Redemption to Parasite, with a Top 100 link to the full list. Then Bollywood and South Indian mixes four Hindi films with four from Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam cinema.

Korean, Japanese and Chinese gathers East Asian favourites such as Train to Busan, Spirited Away and Ne Zha 2. Filipino Films brings romance, horror and history from the Philippines, and Classics closes the film bands with titles from before 2000.

Under the bands, the collections appear as a grid of named shelves with their film counts, and the help pages follow as short cards. This guide comes last, so the home page works as both a storefront and a reference.

Browse Movies

Browse Movies is the heart of YTS for anyone with something specific in mind. It opens with a wide search term box and a row of filters beneath: type, genre, year, original language, minimum rating and order by. Each choice narrows the list at once.

Filters combine freely. Choose Action, 2024 and a rating of seven and up to find Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and The Fall Guy; choose Telugu and order by rating to line up RRR, Sita Ramam and Rangasthalam; choose Korean and Horror for The Wailing and Exhuma.

Every search writes itself into the page address, so a useful combination can be bookmarked or shared. The page Browse Movies gives more examples.

Quick search

The Quick search pill in the top bar is the fastest way to a known film. Type part of the title and press Enter: the results page lists every match with its frame, score and year.

Quick search reads more than titles. It checks original titles, cast and directors, so typing Christopher Nolan lists Inception, Interstellar, Oppenheimer and The Odyssey, and typing Shah Rukh Khan brings up Jawan, Pathaan, Dunki and Happy New Year.

It also ignores the extra words people often add, such as yts, movie, 1080p, download or subtitles. The page Finding a movie has more tips.

The film page

Each film has its own page. The poster sits on the left in the same white frame, and beside it the title, the original title, the year, the runtime, the genres and a synopsis. Under the synopsis come two buttons: the green Watch now and Add to My List.

Further down, a grid of facts lists the original title, release date, original language, country, runtime, studio and the TMDB audience score with its number of votes. The cast and director follow as chips, and similar films close the page.

Every page carries structured data for search engines and a clean address based on the film's English title and its TMDB number, so links stay stable over time.

Watch now

Watch now is the button that turns a film page into a film night. It scrolls down to a panel where you choose your viewing country; the button then opens the film on JustWatch, the directory that tracks which services carry each film in each country.

JustWatch lists every option at once: subscriptions such as Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ or JioHotstar, rental and purchase stores such as Google TV and Apple TV, and free services with adverts where they exist. One more click opens the film in that service's app or site.

Because the directory updates daily, Watch now always reflects the current situation, whether a film is still in cinemas, just arrived for rental or already part of a subscription.

From YTS to your screen, step by step

Watching a film you find on YTS takes four steps. First, find it: from a band on the home page, from Browse Movies, or with Quick search. Second, open the film page and read the synopsis, runtime and score to be sure it fits the evening.

Third, press Watch now and check your viewing country. Fourth, choose a service from the list on JustWatch, whether it is part of a subscription you already have, a rental for the night or a free option with adverts.

The film then plays in HD in that service's app or site, with subtitles and audio options in its player. The How to watch guide walks through each step and names every button along the way.

Viewing country

What you can watch depends on where you are, so YTS asks for your viewing country once. India comes first, followed by the Philippines, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and more.

Your choice is stored in your browser and used on every film page after that. A viewer in Manila picks the Philippines once, and every Watch now button from then on lists the services there.

The viewing country is different from a film's country of production. Parasite is a South Korean production, but the viewing country tells YTS where you are watching it tonight.

720p, 1080p and 4K

People have always come to YTS for good picture quality. On official services, quality follows your plan and your connection: 720p on phones and slower networks, 1080p on most laptops and TVs, and 4K with HDR on premium plans and large screens.

Some films are made for the best picture you can get. Dune, Dune: Part Two, Avatar: Fire and Ash, Oppenheimer, Top Gun: Maverick and Blade Runner 2049 reward a big TV and the highest setting your service offers.

The page 720p, 1080p and 4K explains the settings in each app, and how much data each level uses on a phone.

Subtitles

Subtitles are part of the service you open. Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, JioHotstar and the other major services offer subtitles in several languages for most films, timed and translated by the service.

Switching them on takes a moment: open the speech-bubble or audio icon in the player and pick your language. Most apps remember the choice for the next film, on your phone and on your TV.

Films in other languages are a joy with good subtitles: Parasite, RRR, Your Name. and The Intouchables among them. The page Subtitles has the details.

Hollywood's newest films

The newest Hollywood films lead the catalogue. This year brings Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, Project Hail Mary with a science teacher sent into space to save the Sun, The Mandalorian and Grogu, Supergirl and Masters of the Universe.

Family audiences have Toy Story 5, Minions & Monsters, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Hoppers and the live-action Moana. Last year's big releases stay close at hand: Zootopia 2, Avatar: Fire and Ash, Superman, Sinners, F1, Jurassic World Rebirth and Predator: Badlands.

The New in 2026 collection gathers this year's films in one place, and the Latest band on the home page always shows the eight most recent.

Marvel, DC and the superhero shelf

The superhero shelf is one of the busiest on YTS. The Marvel story runs from Iron Man and The Avengers through Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame to Deadpool & Wolverine and Thunderbolts*.

Spider-Man has a shelf of his own: Spider-Man from 2002, The Amazing Spider-Man, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: No Way Home, the animated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, and this year's Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

DC brings The Dark Knight, The Batman, Man of Steel, Joker, Superman and Supergirl. The Superheroes collection gathers them all, and the Genres menu separates action from animation.

Christopher Nolan

Christopher Nolan has a special place on YTS, because his films are made for the best picture and sound available. Inception takes a team of thieves into layered dreams, Interstellar sends explorers through a wormhole, and Oppenheimer follows the making of the atomic bomb.

His Batman trilogy, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, remains a benchmark for superhero cinema, and The Odyssey brings Homer's epic to the screen this year.

Quick search reads directors, so typing Nolan lists every one of them in a single results page, each in its white frame with score and year.

Science fiction

Science fiction on YTS ranges from thoughtful to thunderous. Arrival and Blade Runner 2049 are for quiet evenings; Dune and Dune: Part Two are for the biggest screen in the house.

The Matrix and Terminator 2: Judgment Day still define the genre, The Martian turns survival on Mars into a comedy of problem-solving, and Mickey 17 and Project Hail Mary bring fresh ideas this decade.

From beyond Hollywood come The Wandering Earth II from China and Godzilla Minus One from Japan. The Sci-fi and fantasy shelf gathers them together.

Action

Action fans have plenty to choose from. Mad Max: Fury Road and Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga race across the wasteland, John Wick: Chapter 4 finishes a saga of choreographed fights, and Top Gun: Maverick puts real jets on screen.

The Mission: Impossible films, from Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One to Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, deliver stunt after stunt, while Bullet Train, The Fall Guy and Road House keep things lighter.

For straightforward thrills there are The Equalizer, The Equalizer 3, The Beekeeper, Wrath of Man and A Working Man. The Action and adventure collection lists them all by popularity.

Horror

Horror is one of the most browsed genres on YTS. The Conjuring and The Conjuring 2 follow the Warrens into haunted houses, Insidious: Out of the Further returns to the realm of the Further, and Get Out turns a weekend visit into something sinister.

Recent horror has been especially strong: Sinners mixes blues and vampires in the Mississippi Delta, Ice Cream Man brings a summer of chills to a small town, The Substance brings body horror to the entertainment world and Final Destination Bloodlines revives a favourite series.

Classics and newcomers sit side by side, from World War Z and Alien: Romulus to Evil Dead Rise and Evil Dead Burn. Horror from Korea, Japan and the Philippines adds more variety still.

Animation and family films

Family film night is easy on YTS. Pixar brings Toy Story, Toy Story 2, Toy Story 3, Toy Story 4, Finding Nemo, Monsters, Inc., The Incredibles, Ratatouille, WALL·E, Up, Inside Out, Coco and Inside Out 2.

Disney adds The Lion King, Tangled, Frozen, Frozen II, Zootopia and Zootopia 2, while DreamWorks and Illumination bring Shrek, Despicable Me, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, The Wild Robot and Kung Fu Panda 4.

Anime features and Chinese animation such as Ne Zha 2 make the family shelf truly international. The Animation and family collection is the place to start.

Harry Potter, Middle-earth and the big sagas

Some sagas are best watched in order, and YTS keeps every part together. The Harry Potter series runs from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, each film with its own page and runtime.

Middle-earth has The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, followed by the Hobbit trilogy from The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey to The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies.

The Pirates of the Caribbean films, the Hunger Games series from The Hunger Games: Catching Fire to The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, and the Avatar films complete the long-weekend list. Add a whole saga to My List in a few clicks.

The classics

The classics shelf is where many visitors spend their evenings. The Shawshank Redemption tops almost every list of favourite films, and Forrest Gump, The Green Mile, Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan follow close behind.

The 1990s also gave us Pulp Fiction, Fight Club, Se7en, GoodFellas, The Truman Show, Titanic and The Matrix, each still a pleasure in HD.

The Classics before 2000 collection lists them all, and the Classics band on the home page shows eight at a time.

The 2000s

The 2000s shelf is full of films people love to revisit. Gladiator opened the decade, Ocean's Eleven made heists stylish, Catch Me If You Can followed a charming con artist and The Departed won Martin Scorsese his Oscar.

Quentin Tarantino brought Kill Bill: Vol. 1 and Inglourious Basterds, and comedies such as Mean Girls, The Devil Wears Prada and The Hangover still get quoted daily.

Pixar had its golden run in these years too, and the Films of the 2000s collection puts all of it on one page.

Awards season favourites

Drama lovers will find the films that dominated awards seasons. Whiplash follows a young drummer and his ruthless teacher, La La Land sings its way through Los Angeles, and The Imitation Game tells the story of the codebreakers of Bletchley Park.

More recent winners include Everything Everywhere All at Once, Oppenheimer, The Brutalist and Killers of the Flower Moon. Hacksaw Ridge and Fury bring the Second World War to the screen.

The Drama collection gathers these alongside dramas from India, Korea, Spain and France.

Crime and mystery

Crime and mystery films are a YTS staple. Knives Out turns a family gathering into a detective game, Gone Girl makes a missing-person case unforgettable, and Shutter Island leaves viewers debating the ending.

The Gentlemen brings Guy Ritchie's wit to London's underworld, Now You See Me follows magicians who rob banks on stage, and The Wolf of Wall Street tells a story of greed on a grand scale.

From India come Drishyam and Andhadhun, and from Spain The Invisible Guest. The Crime and mystery shelf puts them all together.

Bollywood

Bollywood is one of the largest shelves on YTS, and for many visitors the first stop. 3 Idiots remains a favourite for its humour and heart, Dangal follows a father who trains his daughters as wrestlers, and PK brings satire with warmth.

Shah Rukh Khan fans have Jawan, Pathaan, Dunki, Happy New Year, Dilwale and Zero; action fans have War, Fighter, KILL and Dhurandhar; drama fans have 12th Fail, Andhadhun and Tumbbad.

Historical epics include Bajirao Mastani, Padmaavat and Gangubai Kathiawadi. The Bollywood and South Indian guide lists where they stream in India.

Telugu cinema

Telugu cinema from Hyderabad has become a global story. RRR won fans around the world with its friendship and spectacle, and Bāhubali: The Beginning and Bāhubali 2: The Conclusion set new standards for Indian epics.

The recent wave includes Pushpa: The Rise, Pushpa 2 - The Rule, Kalki 2898-AD, Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire and Devara: Part 1, with Peddi arriving this year.

Gentler Telugu films shine too: Sita Ramam is a period love story, Jersey a sports drama, Hi Nanna a family story and Lucky Baskhar a clever banking thriller.

Tamil cinema

Tamil cinema from Chennai brings star power and big action. Vikram, Jailer, Leo, Master and Coolie fill cinemas across South India and beyond.

The Tamil shelf also holds Ponniyin Selvan: Part I and Ponniyin Selvan: Part II, Mani Ratnam's historical saga, and strong dramas such as Jai Bhim, Maharaja, Amaran and Meiyazhagan.

For something lighter, Love Today is a modern romantic comedy, and Rocketry: The Nambi Effect tells the story of a space scientist.

Malayalam cinema

Malayalam cinema from Kerala is loved for its clever scripts. Drishyam 2 continues a family's struggle to protect a secret, Manjummel Boys follows friends on a real rescue in a cave, and Premalu is a light romantic comedy.

Bramayugam is a black-and-white horror story, The Goat Life a tale of survival in the desert, Minnal Murali a small-town superhero film and Aavesham an energetic comedy.

All We Imagine as Light brought Malayalam and Hindi together at Cannes. The Malayalam films shelf lists them all.

Korean films

Korean cinema has fans all over the world, and YTS gives it a shelf of its own. Parasite won the Oscar for best picture, Train to Busan reinvented the zombie film, and The Wailing and Exhuma draw on Korean folk beliefs.

Thrillers are a speciality: I Saw the Devil, The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil, Decision to Leave and No Other Choice, with the lighter The Roundup and The Roundup: No Way Out for action fans.

Snowpiercer is a science-fiction classic, 20th Century Girl a sweet coming-of-age story, and Colony one of this year's new arrivals.

Japanese films and anime

Japan brings two worlds to YTS: anime features and live action. Studio Ghibli is represented by Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle and The Boy and the Heron, and Makoto Shinkai by Your Name., Weathering with You and Suzume.

Anime series on the big screen include Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Movie: Mugen Train, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle, Jujutsu Kaisen 0 and Chainsaw Man - The Movie: Reze Arc.

Live action includes Godzilla Minus One, Shin Godzilla, Perfect Days, Monster and Exit 8. The Japanese films and anime shelf holds them all.

Chinese films

Chinese cinema produces some of the world's biggest box-office hits, and YTS follows them. Ne Zha and Ne Zha 2 turn an ancient legend into dazzling animation, and The Wandering Earth and The Wandering Earth II move the whole planet across space.

Creation of the Gods I: Kingdom of Storms is a mythological epic, The Shadow's Edge a sleek action thriller, and Better Days a moving story about school pressure.

Recent arrivals include The Furious and Blades of the Guardians. The Chinese films collection lists them by popularity.

Filipino films

The Philippines is home to many YTS visitors, and Filipino films have their own band on the home page. Hello, Love, Goodbye is one of the country's most successful love stories, following two workers in Hong Kong.

Miracle in Cell No. 7 moved audiences with its story of a father and daughter, Goyo: The Boy General tells a chapter of the revolution, and The Woman Who Left won the top prize in Venice.

Horror fans have Shake, Rattle & Roll: Evil Origins and Outside, and new arrivals include Wonderful Nightmare and 18th Rose. The Filipino films guide covers where to watch them.

Spanish and French films

Spanish-language films on YTS range from thrillers to heartfelt dramas. The Invisible Guest is a tightly wound mystery, The Platform a sharp satire, Society of the Snow a survival story from the Andes and Roma Alfonso Cuarón's portrait of Mexico City.

French cinema brings The Intouchables, Anatomy of a Fall, The Artist, The Count of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers: D'Artagnan, with Asterix adventures for the whole family.

Each language has its own collection, and the Languages page lists every original language in the catalogue with its number of films.

Top IMDb and the top rated

The Top IMDb page ranks the hundred highest-rated films on YTS by TMDB audience score, counting only films with at least five hundred votes. Classics such as The Shawshank Redemption and Spirited Away sit next to newer favourites.

TMDB and IMDb scores usually agree on older films and can differ a little on new releases, because new films gather votes quickly at first. The score in each caption is always the TMDB audience score.

The Top rated band on the home page shows the first eight, and the Top 100 link opens the full list.

Comedy

Comedy is the easiest way to end a long day, and YTS has a shelf for every sense of humour. Barbie turned a toy into a sharp, colourful satire, The Hangover made a wedding weekend legendary, and Mean Girls still supplies half the internet's quotes.

Family comedies such as Grown Ups and Ted 2 sit beside the animated laughs of Despicable Me and Shrek, and this year's The Devil Wears Prada 2 brings back a favourite cast.

From India come 3 Idiots, PK and Premalu, and from Mexico No manches, Frida. The Comedy collection gathers them all by popularity.

Romance

Love stories are some of the most rewatched films on YTS. Titanic remains the great romantic epic, The Notebook a favourite for rainy evenings, and La La Land a love story set to music.

New romances arrive every year, from The Love Hypothesis to Practical Magic 2, while Indian cinema brings Saiyaara, Sanam Teri Kasam, Sita Ramam and Hridayam.

Filipino hearts are well served by Hello, Love, Goodbye, and Korean cinema adds 20th Century Girl. The Romance shelf lists every one.

East Asia on one shelf

Korean, Japanese and Chinese films share a band on the YTS home page and a collection of their own, because many visitors enjoy all three. The mix changes with the catalogue, but it always includes the biggest recent hits and the classics everyone recommends.

Start with Train to Busan for thrills, Spirited Away for wonder and Ne Zha 2 for spectacle, then follow the language shelves deeper: Korean thrillers, anime features and Chinese science fiction.

The Korean, Japanese and Chinese films guide picks the highlights, and each film page shows its original language so you can set subtitles before you start.

Film night ideas

A few ready-made evenings to try. For a Nolan night, start with Inception, move on to Interstellar and finish with The Dark Knight. For a Marvel marathon, Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame belong together.

For an Indian double bill, pair 3 Idiots with RRR, two very different films that audiences everywhere adore. For a Korean night, Train to Busan followed by Parasite is hard to beat.

For families, Coco, Inside Out 2 and Zootopia 2 work for every age. Add an evening's films to My List and they will be waiting when the popcorn is ready.

My List

My List is your personal shelf on YTS. Press Add to My List on any film page and the film joins the My List page, framed like everywhere else, ready for the evening you want it.

The list lives in your browser and works the moment you open YTS. Export My List saves it as one small file, and Import a saved copy merges it on another phone, laptop or TV, so your list travels with you.

My List is the natural home for plans: a Harry Potter weekend, a Nolan retrospective, the Telugu epics you keep meaning to see, or the new releases you are waiting to reach streaming. The My List guide has more ideas.

Collections

Collections are ready-made shelves that save you time. There are shelves by language, from Hollywood and English-language films to Bollywood, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Spanish and French films.

There are shelves by genre too: action and adventure, horror and thrillers, comedy, drama, sci-fi and fantasy, crime and mystery, romance, and animation and family. The decade shelves cover the 2020s, the 2010s, the 2000s and the classics before 2000.

Each collection is sorted by popularity, and the Collections page shows every shelf with its number of films, so you can see at a glance where to begin.

Genres, years and languages

The Genres link in the top bar opens a page with every genre in the catalogue, from action to western, each with its own page of films. Most films carry more than one genre, so a film like Sinners appears under horror, drama and thriller alike.

The year pages list films by release year, from this year back to the classics, and the language pages group films by the language they were made in, from English and Hindi to Korean, Japanese, Tagalog and Spanish.

The A-Z list puts every title in alphabetical order, handy when you remember how a title begins but little else.

YTS on your phone

Many YTS visitors browse on a phone, and the layout adapts. On a small screen the links fold into the Menu button, the Quick search box moves into the menu, and films line up two to a row in their white frames.

The menu opens just under the top bar and holds the search box, the main links, genres, years, languages, collections, My List and help. Close it with the same button, a tap outside, or the Escape key.

For app-like access, use your browser's Add to Home Screen option: YTS then opens from its own icon. The films themselves play in each service's official app. The page Apps and devices explains the options.

Watching on a TV

A big screen does justice to the films people love most. The simplest way is to pick a film on your phone, then open it in the same service's app on your smart TV, Android TV or streaming stick, signed in with the same account.

Chromecast and AirPlay send a film from your phone's app to the TV in one tap, and your phone becomes the remote. Epics like Dune: Part Two, Bāhubali 2: The Conclusion and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King are made for it.

YTS also opens in a TV's web browser, where the dark layout and white frames look right at home.

Data on mobile

Streaming on mobile data is common, so it helps to know the numbers. An hour of standard definition uses well under a gigabyte, an hour of 1080p about three, and 4K several times more.

Every major app has a mobile data setting. Choose a data-saving mode when you are out and the highest quality on Wi-Fi, and your plan will stretch much further.

The smartest option is often to download a film in the service's app at home over Wi-Fi and watch it later on the move. Long films such as Oppenheimer or Kalki 2898-AD are perfect for a flight.

Downloads for offline viewing

Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, JioHotstar and many other services let you download films inside their apps. The film stays in the app and plays on planes, trains and anywhere with a weak signal.

Downloads last as long as your subscription is active, with a viewing window once you start. You can choose the download quality, from space-saving to high.

From YTS the path is short: find the film, open Watch now, pick a service that offers downloads, and save it over Wi-Fi before you travel.

Free films, legally

Watching free and legally is easier than many people think. YouTube offers free films with adverts in many countries, Plex, Tubi and Pluto TV carry large free libraries, and in India JioHotstar and MX Player have free sections.

Watch now marks the free options for your viewing country, so a classic like Terminator 2: Judgment Day or a family film may turn out to be free tonight.

Libraries often give members free access to services such as Kanopy and Hoopla, and subscription trials and mobile bundles offer more. The Free movies guide gathers the options.

Services in India

India is home to more YTS visitors than any other country, and it has a rich choice of services. Netflix and Prime Video carry Hollywood, Hindi and South Indian films; JioHotstar brings Disney, Marvel and Pixar together with Indian films and sport.

ZEE5 and SonyLIV focus on Indian cinema, and Aha is the home of many Telugu and Tamil releases. Google TV and Apple TV rent and sell films one title at a time.

Choose India as your viewing country and Watch now lists all of them for each film, with the kind of access each offers.

Services in the Philippines

The Philippines is another big YTS country. Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+ are all available there, and iWantTFC carries a large library of Filipino films and shows.

Filipino hits such as Hello, Love, Goodbye and Miracle in Cell No. 7 often stream soon after their cinema run, and Hollywood releases follow the usual path from cinema to rental to subscription.

Choose the Philippines as your viewing country once, and every Watch now button shows the local services from then on.

The United States, Canada, the UK and Australia

In the United States and Canada, the widest choice is on Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Max, Peacock, Paramount+ and Apple TV, with free options on Tubi, Pluto TV and The Roku Channel.

In the United Kingdom, BBC iPlayer, ITVX and Channel 4 add free films to the big subscription services, and in Australia SBS On Demand and ABC iview do the same.

Whatever your country, the viewing panel on each film page lists the right services, so one page covers every option.

From cinema to streaming

Most new films follow the same path. They open in cinemas, reach digital rental and purchase a few weeks or months later, and then join a subscription service, sometimes a free one after that.

YTS lists films from their release date and keeps them in the catalogue through every step. Watch now shows the current step for your country, whether that is a cinema run, a rental, or a place in a subscription.

Add the films you are waiting for to My List and check back. The Latest releases guide covers the timing for Hollywood and Indian films.

The official YTS address

The YTS name has been used on many addresses over the years, and people still search for the old endings. This YTS has one fixed address, shown in your browser's address bar.

Bookmark it or add it to your home screen, and you will always open the same site with your My List and viewing country ready. This YTS is an independent site with its own layout, writing and film pages.

Copies are easy to spot: they open windows on their own, push app installs or stack download buttons. The Official site and Site status pages explain what to check.

Staying safe

YTS shows posters, details and links to JustWatch and the official services, and every link leads where you expect. That keeps your device and your data safe while you browse.

Official services pay the people who make films, give you proper subtitles and HD picture, and protect your device. Every rental and subscription helps the next film get made, in Hollywood and in Mumbai, Hyderabad, Seoul and Manila.

Elsewhere, watch for pages that open windows on their own, show fake virus alerts, or ask for card details. The Safety guide has a short checklist.

YTS and YIFY

People often search for YTS and YIFY together, because both names became shorthand for films in good quality at a small size. This site is YTS, a movie catalogue that gets you to the film in HD on an official service.

The quality promise carries over naturally. Official services stream in 1080p and 4K and adjust to your connection, so you get a sharp picture while the service takes care of file sizes.

The YTS and YIFY page explains more, and the Official services guide compares the places to watch.

How YTS chooses its films

The YTS catalogue is chosen with care. Popular new releases and all-time favourites come from TMDB's popularity and rating data, grouped by era so every decade is well represented.

Each language shelf is filled with the films audiences love most: Hindi, Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam films for India, Filipino films for the Philippines, and the best of Korea, Japan, China, Spain and France. Films people look for by name, such as Predator: Badlands and Zootopia 2, are added as they appear.

YTS is a catalogue for a general audience. Films sold as erotica are left out, so every shelf is comfortable to browse with anyone in the room.

Where the information comes from

Posters, backdrops, titles, synopses, genres, runtimes, casts and audience scores come from TMDB, the community-built film database used by services around the world.

Where to watch comes from JustWatch, which updates its listings every day for each country. The help pages and this guide are written for YTS.

The catalogue is refreshed regularly, so new releases arrive, scores settle as votes come in, and every film page stays current.

Where to start

If you are new to YTS, start with Popular Movies at the top of the home page, then scroll through the bands until something catches your eye. The Latest band is the place for new releases, and Top rated is the place for sure things.

If you know what you want, use Quick search. If you know the mood and want ideas, open Browse Movies and combine a genre, a year and a minimum rating.

Whichever way you find it, Watch now takes you to the film in HD on a service in your country, and My List keeps the next one ready. Enjoy the film.
