HBO Max is rolling out a new rating system that allows you to share feedback about the shows and movies you watch. The streaming service will tweak your recommendations based on whether you select the “Love,” “Like,” or “Not For Me” options.

When you say that you “Love” a show or movie, HBO Max will suggest titles to watch in a “Because You Love” carousel on the homepage, while deprioritizing titles marked as “Not For Me.” HBO Max first started testing the rating system as part of plans to better personalize its homepage last year. It’s similar to the thumbs-up, double thumbs-up, and thumbs-down buttons that have long been offered by Netflix.

The update comes just one day after HBO Max parent company Warner Bros. Discovery announced that it’s ready for a sale and issued a price hike across its streaming service’s plans for the third year in a row.

The new rating system is coming to the HBO Max app on the web, mobile, and smart TVs. You can rate shows by selecting the “Rate” button that shows up on a title’s description page, or by choosing an option that appears on the screen when you finish watching a show or movie.
