September 8, 2025 — Florida — TheaterEars, the app that lets audiences experience movies in Spanish at the theater or at home, finished #2 among movie theater and movie ticketing apps on the U.S. App Store this weekend and #44 in the Entertainment category overall. TheaterEars ranked ahead of well-known titles including YouTube Kids (#47), Xbox (#49), Spectrum TV (#54), Xfinity Stream (#59), and IMDb (#63), and trailed only AMC (#31) among theater-related apps.

“With The Conjuring: Last Rites energizing audiences, we saw outsized engagement on TheaterEars—evidence that when movies overperform, they often do so by welcoming new Latino moviegoers,” said Dan Mangru, CEO of TheaterEars. “Our mission is simple: remove the language barrier so families and friends can enjoy movies together. When studios deliver can’t-miss titles, TheaterEars helps expand the audience and amplify box office results by making the experience accessible to millions of Spanish-preferring viewers.”
