Show Pages
Every Show, Every Production.
Every show has a page with its poster, its rating and Moments from people who've been. When a show comes back in a new production, that production gets a page of its own.
- Jamie Lloyd’s Sunset Boulevard has its own rating, apart from the 1993 original.
- What to see next: the shows its audience went on to see.
- Where it’s on and what tickets cost, while it’s booking.
Your Profile
Your Theatre, on One Page.
Your cover is a wall of the posters from everything you've seen. Your shows, visits and hours in the seats sit on a ticket stub, with your last nights out, the shows you keep going back to and a scrapbook of your Moments.
- Your time in the seats, in hours and in Hamiltons: 122 hours is 44 Hamiltons back to back.
- A year ago this week: the show you saw, back at the top.
- With Premium, every chart: your theatre years, your week, your season, your taste and your corner of the theatre map.
The Feed
See What Everyone's Seeing.
For You has the nights people have just had, Following has the people you follow, and What's On has what's playing: the shows members have been to lately, from the West End to tours and shows abroad, then your wishlist on sale and booking that's about to end.
- Applaud a Moment you enjoyed; the bell shows who applauded yours.
- Follow the people who’ve seen the most of the same shows as you.
Every Night Out Makes a Card.
After a show, Aklaim draws a card from your night: the ticket with your seat and stars, your photos and words, or your whole theatre so far. Post it to your story, or send it to the friend who came with you.
- Story and post sizes, a tap apart.
- The link opens the show, in the app if your friend has it.
- When a friend joins from your card, you follow each other straight away.

Premium
Made by One Person.
Aklaim is built by one person (me, Oren). Logging your shows, your profile, your Moments and sharing them are free for everyone, and they’ll stay that way.
Running it still costs money every month: the servers, the show database and the app stores. Premium is what pays for it.
So Premium is how people support Aklaim, and supporters get a few extras in return.
