Hi all, 

Please could you check what version of the app you currently have installed on your devices, report back with that version number, and then if possible download and install the latest version (16.1.1).

From here, can you then report the status of your lists and/or rating history. 

Thanks!

Hi Ozzy,

I was on the version 16.1.

I just updated for the version 16.1.1 but I still don’t see my lists.

I also try on the web version imdb.com and I don’t see my lists either.

Hi maillarddavid, 

Thank you for the additional details. 

Can you confirm whether this is the account you created your lists and/or submitted ratings with? Do you have another IMDb account at all?

Cheers!

Hi Ozzy,

I’m pretty sure yes because I only have one email address, but now you ask, I guess I doubt.

If it can help, I have no ratings, only personal lists:

  • « Movie Night » (600+ movies)
  •  « À valider »
  •  « All Marvel » or « All Marvel Movies » (50+ movies)
  •  « Ghibli » (approx. 10 movies)

Hi @maillarddavid,

We've identified a second account with your name and corresponding lists. We'd ask you to try and log in to this second IMDb account with any other email addresses you may have previously used/had access to. 

If you experience any issues doing this, please can you reach out via our Contact Form, and quote this post within your message. 

Thanks!

I tried to logout/login but now I do not have the error message anymore. It is like I have the brand new account.

I can’t see my rating history in my account. Yesterday, I was trying to rate a movie and it kept giving me an error about “invalid MAP state” and wouldn’t save it. I also didn’t have anything in my rating or watch lists. I updated my phone to iOS 26.1 and it had the same issue even after closing and reopening the app. I logged out and then relogged in and now I can rate movies and see my watch list, but my previous ratings aren’t showing up. Is there a way I can get my old ratings back?

Just now received the same message while trying to add a movie to my watchlist. And yes, I updated my iPhone's iOS yesterday to 26.1; this was the first time since that update that I have attempted to add to my watchlist, and not coincidentally, it's also the first time that I have ever received the message about an "invalid MAP state". (Additionally, a window has popped up: Streaming guide/Your Watchlist is empty/[Link] Add to your WatchlistStanding by for suggestions... okay?
