Beta Up and running, but still under construction. Things may change as we go.
Films and shows, just for our families.
PictureHouse is a small private library for family and close friends. You need an invite from us to get in.

Install the app
It installs straight from this page. There's nothing to find in an app store.
iPhone or iPad
- Open picturehouse.live in Safari.
- Tap the Share button (the square with an arrow pointing up).
- Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen, then Add.
- Open PictureHouse from your home screen and sign in. The app keeps its own sign-in, so you'll sign in once more there even if you already did in Safari.
Android phone or tablet
- Open picturehouse.live in Chrome.
- Tap Get the app above, then Install.
- No install box? Tap the ⋮ menu, then Add to Home screen or Install app.
Computer

- Click Get the app above, or the install icon at the right of the address bar.
- Other browsers work too: just sign in and watch in the browser.
Getting started

- Install the app on your phone, tablet or computer (see above).
- Sign in with your username or email and password.
- Set a 4-digit parent PIN the first time. It locks the grown-ups' films and shows.
Using it
- Home has everything for the whole family. Tap a title to watch it.
- Search finds any film or show by name.
- My list keeps the things you want to watch later.
- Parents' section has grown-up films and series. It opens with your parent PIN.
