# Type "map" to see new movies: the pirate film shell "Comp Study" used by Brazilians, still on the chart after changing to yet another disguise

**What it is** An iPhone app disguised as a poster design mini-game. Enter the code "map" and you can watch pirated movies and shows for free. Its users are mainly in Brazil, Angola and Portugal, and it earns from ads.

**Why it took off** The name "Comp Study" has been hot in Brazil's TikTok tutorial scene for over a year. After the previous shell was pulled from the App Store, tutorial accounts and Telegram channels led longtime users looking for the "new name" to this new shell. Add the low bar of the small-country entertainment charts, and it took off.

**E** **How you could follow** Not recommended: piracy plus deceiving app review means a shell gets banned within months, and distribution networks won't carry it. What you can borrow is the mechanics: a brand prefix and suffix so longtime users can find it by search, tutorial videos pulling people into comment sections, and using small-country category charts to cold-start a legitimate app.

Grade E: the whole thing rests on pirated content and evading App Store review, carrying legal and account-ban risk, with windows measured in months. Its traction comes from a year of longtime users and a Telegram channel of 100k people, which followers can't copy, and similar shells have long since formed packs. Spreading in small circles

Comp Study-FilmNova's App Store page describes it as a "poster design studio + gesture mini-game," but it's actually an app giving iPhone users in Brazil, Angola and Portugal free access to pirated movies and shows. You type a code into the only input box, and the library appears. Nov 6 it ranked #15 on Brazil's free Entertainment chart and #4 in Angola. Its product is no different from its rivals. It took off because it carries the "Comp Study" name: this underground brand has been pulled from the App Store repeatedly, each time returning with a new shell, and longtime users follow it each time. This piece explains how it pulled that off, which tactics are worth noting, and why we don't recommend following it.

### "Does anyone know the new name?"

On 2026 Oct 3, TikTok account @evanisilva_1 posted a Portuguese video teaching how to install "Comp Study" on an iPhone to watch free movies. It had 65k views. At the time, searching "comp study filmnova" on TikTok put this video at the top. Its comments barely talk about movies. Everyone asks the same thing: "Alguém sabe o novo nome?" (Does anyone know the new name?), "gente o app foi banido" (guys, the app got banned), "Me manda o link" (send me the link).

This kind of exchange has repeated in this niche for over a year. In 2025 April, @pamelaferreiraaaaa's tutorial got 1.4M views. From April 2025 to April 2026, @_maikx kept updating the same series "Atualização do app de filmes e séries do iPhone" (iPhone movie and series app update), with single posts at 160k to 380k views. In Jul 2026 29, @dagostim92 posted "Como entrar no comp Study??" (how do I get into the Study comp), and a commenter posted "Senha: map" (password: map). A Jul 30 comment says "Ele não tá mais na AppStore" (it's no longer on the App Store), and in Sep 20 someone said "o de planta saiu do ar" (the plant one went down).

FilmNova launched on 2026 Aug 28, right in the gap after the previous shell was pulled.

### What it actually is

The store listing (iTunes API, 11-06) reads: "GoodMiNova is a unique poster studio… gesture-driven survival challenges… Completely offline." The app is called FilmNova, yet the description says GoodMiNova, clearly template copy stitched together as a disguise. Only the English interface is available, 12+, 12.8 MB, and developer "Viet Xuan Nguyen" has only this one app under their name.

The real usage: Brazilian portal TechTudo (part of Globo) wrote an article on 2025 August specifically warning: "basta inserir o código de acesso "MAP" para desbloquear o catálogo completo" (just enter the access code MAP to unlock the full catalog). The library and ads are delivered from the server, so during App Store review only a poster mini-game is visible. The version number has stayed at 1.1 since Sep 8, yet a Brazilian user wrote in Nov 1 "Eles atualizaram mas ficou uma bosta" (they updated, and it's terrible now), which refers to the server swapping content and adding ads.

App Store reviews (Brazil, 10-28 to 11-01) lay out its situation clearly:

- "antes era otm agr tem muito anuncio n da pra assistir": it used to be great, now there are so many ads you can't watch

- "pelo estresse vale mais a pena pagar app de streaming": with all this hassle, it's better to just pay for a legit streaming app

- "Muito bom… mas ele é hack": very good… but it's a hack

- "Pq tá em inglês e pra tá em português!!": why is it in English when it should be in Portuguese!

Brazil store 202 ratings, averaging 3.4 (iTunes Brazil store, 11-06).

### Where the money comes from

Mainly ad revenue. Its developer website points to a Firebase-hosted app-ads.txt, which includes a direct seller entry for start.io, plus resellers for programmatic ad networks such as OpenX, PubMatic and Rubicon, meaning interstitial ads plus programmatic bidding. From mid-October, negative reviews clustered around complaints about ads, which suggests the operator increased ad volume while the shell was still alive (inferred).

The other revenue line is off-platform. In an April 2025 post, @lucpedrosa's promo said "Se puderem assinem o VIP custa somente R$15,00" (if you can pay, get the VIP, it's only R$15), and noted the app "é desenvolvido pelo tg.me/Cinema_br", i.e. it's made by a Telegram channel with about 108k subscribers (telemetr.io). Whether FilmNova still has a VIP, and whether the same people run it, is unverified.

Not big. Global ratings went from 10-28 (210) to 11-06 (305), adding 9 to 18 a day with no sign of slowing. A third-party estimate is about 10k downloads and $1K revenue per month (AppSprint, unverified).

### Where users come from: the brand prefix relay

**A TikTok tutorial account is the main channel.** The videos don't say the name outright. They tell people to ask in the comments, so "what's the new name?" becomes the engagement hook on every video. TikTok also has a hashtag page called "Codigo Do Comp Study Filmnova" (Comp Study FilmNova code).

**The "Comp Study-" prefix catches returning users.** Every new shell is named "Comp Study-[something]", so old users searching "comp study" in the App Store find the next one. Right now at least 5 App Store apps use this prefix, from 5 different developer accounts. That's a typical account-rotation shell pattern. But the name alone isn't enough:

| Shell | Launched | Scale (Brazil, 11-06) | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Comp Study - Cine Mood | 2025-07-29 | 1,368 ratings, #39 on the Entertainment Top Free chart | The previous generation: only 7 more ratings in 17 days, on the way down |
| Comp Study-FilmNova | 2026-08-28 | 197 ratings, #15 on the Entertainment Top Free chart | The one currently catching the traffic |
| Comp Study:RobreFlix / TrainMovie / Element | 2026-04 to 09 | 0 to 39 ratings | Same name, not called out by the tutorial account, didn't take off |
| Comp Study - Filmes e Series (Android) | Around 2026-08 | 110k installs | 2026-10 removed from Google Play (AppBrain) |

Which shell gets the volume depends on which one the tutorial account and Telegram are pushing.

**Small-storefront category charts are cheap to win.** On the Entertainment Top Free charts in Brazil, Angola and Portugal, a dozen new ratings a day is enough to hold a top-15 to 30 spot. Once charted, the app also shows up in the "also liked" recommendations of similar apps, adding another layer of organic reach.

**The media warning actually drove traffic (inferred).** The TechTudo article was meant to tell people not to use it, but it made the name and the "MAP" code known to more people.

**No paid acquisition seen.** Pirated content can't pass ad review, and the TikTok videos don't look like ad creative.

### Who it's competing with

The competition isn't about the product, it's about which shell the tutorial account names. On the same Brazil Entertainment Top Free chart: Seekee: Filmes e Séries (2026-01 listed, 10,378 Brazil ratings, 7 more in 654 days, #17) is about 50x FilmNova's scale and uses "movies and series" in Portuguese as its name. Read Progre - Movies Play Cine is what a Facebook group called "the new name after Comp Study got banned". Then there are Zuxo Player, Rush Align, Zapi and others from the same period, with ratings from single digits to dozens. At the top of the chart are Netflix, Disney+, Globoplay, and licensed paid short-drama apps like DramaBox and ReelShort.

### If it were you

**Verdict: don't touch it.** The business runs on pirated content and deceiving App Store review. Each shell lives for months, developer accounts get banned at any time, and there is legal risk in Brazil. If you tried to turn it into a legitimate product, you'd immediately hit a wall: users want "free new movies", and you can't get licensed content. The real competition for its users is shells like Seekee that take the same grey-market route, and that lane is already crowded.

**Who it's for:** nobody. Even if you only wanted to copy it into another country, like Spanish-speaking Latin America, you'd carry the same risk, plus you'd lack the distribution network that already exists: Comp Study has over a year of returning users built up from TikTok tutorials and a 100k-member Telegram channel. Newcomers can't get those.

**What you can learn is the mechanics, not the business:**

- A main brand plus a suffix: the product name keeps a fixed prefix, with version or region in the suffix, so returning users can find you by searching the prefix. Useful in compliance-sensitive categories that often get removed or have accounts rotated (for example utility apps that get wrongly banned).

- Tutorial videos that don't give the answer and push people into the comments: the hotter the comments, the more the algorithm recommends.

- Small-country category charts are cheap: in storefronts like Angola or Portugal, a dozen ratings a day can reach the top 30, which suits a legitimate app using them for launch exposure and recommendation placement.

**What would show I'm wrong:** If Comp Study-type apps start getting real licenses (say, a revenue-share with a Brazilian studio for a free ad-supported library), or if Apple stops cleaning up and shell lifespans stretch from months to over a year, then a compliant version of "free ad-supported Portuguese-language film" may be viable, and this is worth a second look.

- **Confirmed** **Organic reach on small-storefront Entertainment Top Free charts** : br #13–16, ao #3–6, pt #17–28 (appstore database)

- Inferred **Media driving traffic in reverse** : TechTudo's 2025-08 warning article printed the code MAP (inferred to drive traffic)

## Why Comp Study-FilmNova (iOS id6804933652) shows up on the charts

> Research date 2026-11-06. Storefronts checked: we scanned all storefronts in our appstore database (the app is on the category charts in 19 storefronts), focusing on br / ao / pt. Data sources are noted after each item.

### One line

The store page says "poster design + gesture mini-games", but it's really a reskinned app that gives Brazilian (and Angolan and Portuguese) iPhone users free access to pirated films and shows. You type a code into the single input box (TechTudo and users both wrote it as "map"/"maps") to unlock the library, and it earns from interstitial ads. It has nothing unique about it. It's another shell of the underground "Comp Study" brand: the previous shell got removed by Apple, and tutorial accounts on TikTok plus a 100k-member Telegram channel moved users to the next shell, called "Comp Study-XXX".

### 1. Data: scale and trend

- Global ratings: 10-28 went from 210 to 11-06 to 305, +7 over the last 88 days, 9–18 a day, no sign of slowing (data is stale, appstore database).

- Brazil: Entertainment Top Free steady at #13–16, overall Top Free #95–154; ratings 125 → 197 (10-28 → 11-06). Angola: Entertainment Top Free #3–6, overall Top Free #33–49. Portugal: Entertainment Top Free #17–28 (appstore database, app_day).

- 11-06 Brazil Entertainment Top Free #15; around it are HotShort, ShortReels, Seekee, and above it Netflix, Disney+, Globoplay and a bunch of short-drama apps (appstore database, chart_rank).

- Version 1.1 hasn't been updated since 2026-09-08, but a user says "they updated it, now it's all ads" (br review 11-01), which suggests content and ads are served from the backend and skip Apple review (iTunes lookup; appstore database, review).

- English only, 12+, 12.8 MB, developer "Viet Xuan Nguyen" has only this one app (iTunes lookup).

- AppSprint estimates about 10k downloads and about $1K revenue per month (cited from a recalled data card, unverified).

### 2. What it actually is

- Store description: "GoodMiNova is a unique poster studio… gesture-driven survival challenges… Completely offline". The name is FilmNova, but the description says GoodMiNova, clearly template-assembled cover copy (iTunes lookup).

- Real use: watching free films. Brazilian reviews: "antes era otm agr tem muito anuncio n da pra assistir" (it used to be great, now there are so many ads you can't watch), "pelo estresse vale mais a pena pagar app de streaming" (with all this hassle it's better to just pay for a streaming app), "Muito bom… mas ele é hack", "Pq tá em inglês e pra tá em português" (appstore database, reviews 10-28–11-01).

- Code unlock: TechTudo's 2025-08 article wrote: "basta inserir o código de acesso "MAP" para desbloquear o catálogo completo" (https://www.techtudo.com.br/guia/2025/08/comp-study-entenda-por-que-nao-usar-o-app-para-ver-filmes-gratis-edapps.ghtml). TikTok comments also have "Senha: map" and "msm escrevendo map e maps" (TikHub, comments on @dagostim92 video 7668107707563461896).

- Monetization: the seller URL points to a Firebase-hosted app-ads.txt (gamesume-9fc16.web.app), which lists start.io DIRECT plus programmatic ad resellers like OpenX, PubMatic and Rubicon, so it earns from interstitial/programmatic ads (read directly from app-ads.txt). An earlier Comp Study promo post also said "Se puderem assinem o VIP custa somente R$15,00" (if you can pay, get the R$15 VIP) (X @lucpedrosa 2025-04-05, [x.com/lucpedrosa/status/1908611214751785251](https://x.com/lucpedrosa/status/1908611214751785251)), so there's an off-platform paid VIP. Whether FilmNova still has one is unclear.

### 3. Competitors: who else does the same thing

| Product | Where | Launched | Scale | How it differs from FilmNova |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Comp Study - Cine Mood(Trang Dao My) | iOS | 2025-07-29 | br rating 1,368, ao 189; br Entertainment Top Free #39 today (appstore library) | The previous app from the same brand is still alive but on the way down (br 7 days, +17 ratings); FilmNova is the relay app for new traffic. |
| Comp Study:RobreFlix / comp study:TrainMovie / Comp Study:Element | iOS | 2026-04-23 / 05-11 / 09-08 | Ratings 39 / 0 / 2 (appstore library) | Same naming play, but it didn't pick up the traffic. Putting "Comp Study" in the name isn't enough; you need a tutorial account pushing the right one. |
| Read Progre - Movies Play Cine(Nguyen Duc Thuy) | iOS | 2025-10-31 | br ratings 61, Entertainment chart #36 | A Facebook group post said "Comp Study was taken down by the App Store, the new one is called Read Progre". Another shell on the same distribution network. |
| Seekee : Filmes e Séries | iOS | 2026-01-20 | br rating 10,378,7 days, +654; Entertainment #17 (appstore library) | The biggest in the category, named directly in Portuguese "Filmes e Séries", 50× the scale of FilmNova. FilmNova is feeding off the Comp Study old-user line. |
| Zuxo Player / Rush Align / Zapi, etc. | iOS | 2026 | Ratings from single digits to dozens, Category chart #18–31 | Other shells from the same period. TikTok comments have people shouting "ZAPI!!" as the new name. |
| Comp Study - Filmes e Series | Android | Around 2026-08 | 110k installs, 2026-10 delisted from Google Play (AppBrain) | The Android version of the same brand. Early Android users were downloading APKs from outside the store. |
| Short-drama apps (DramaBox, ReelShort, NetShort, PineDrama, etc.) | iOS/Android | 2022–2025 | Holding the top 10 spots on br Entertainment Top Free | Licensed and paid. The content is vertical short drama, not theatrical films and US series. |
| Netflix / Globoplay / Pluto TV | iOS/Android | Years | Top players | Licensed, requires a subscription or an older catalog. FilmNova's pitch is that new releases are free. |
| Telegram channel Cinema_br | Other | Not verified | About 108k subscribers (telemetr.io) | A promo post says the Comp Study app was made by this channel. It's both a competitor and a likely upstream distribution source (unverified). |

Takeaway: there are many of these, and they appear in clusters. The competition isn't about the product. It's about which shell a tutorial account names.

### 4. Growth tactics: where users come from

1. **TikTok tutorial accounts (confirmed, main channel)** : Portuguese "iPhone movie app" videos routinely get hundreds of thousands to millions of views. @_maikx's series "Atualização do app de filmes e séries do iPhone" (2025-04 through 2026-04, 160k–380k views per post), @pamelaferreiraaaaa (2025-41.4M views), @dagostim92 "Como entrar no comp Study??" (2026-07-2.98M views), @evanisilva_1 (2026-10-365k views; a TikHub search for "comp study filmnova" ranks it first). The comments on evanisilva_1's post are almost all "Alguém sabe o novo nome?", "gente o app foi banido", "Me manda o link". Users have gotten used to "shell gets banned → ask for the new name in the comments" (TikHub search and comments API). TikTok also has a hashtag page "Codigo Do Comp Study Filmnova" (Jina search results show 7.5M posts; that's TikTok's hashtag-page count, meaning unverified).

2. **Telegram channel + X posts (existence confirmed, relationship to FilmNova unverified)** : X account @lucpedrosa 2025-04 posts teaching people to download Comp Study, stating "O aplicativo é desenvolvido pelo tg.me/Cinema_br", and adding "Quando o aplicativo for removido da App Store eu posso ensinar como instalar ele novamente". Cinema_br has about 108k subscribers (telemetr.io). Facebook groups also have posts saying "Comp Study was banned, the new one is called Read Progre".

3. **The "Comp Study" brand prefix catches old users (inference, strong evidence)** : every new shell is called "Comp Study-XXX", so old users searching "comp study" in the App Store find the next one. Our library has 5 apps with the same prefix, from 5 different developer accounts (Trang Dao My, Burcak Behcet, Ozge Mungan, Viet Xuan Nguyen, Ishika Baluni), a classic pattern of account buying and swapping to stand up shells.

4. **Organic traffic from category charts (confirmed)** : #15 on Brazil's Entertainment Top Free, #4 in Angola. A dozen-plus new ratings a day keeps it in that spot. Once charted, it also gets "also bought" placements (on App Store customers-also-bought pages, similar shells show up next to each other).

5. **Media driving traffic back (inference)** : TechTudo (part of Globo) 2025-08 published a warning that Comp Study carries virus and legal risks, and TechTudo's X account reposted it. That effectively made the name and the "MAP" passcode known to more people.

6. **Paid acquisition: none found** . Pirated content wouldn't pass ad review, and the TikTok videos don't look like paid ad creatives.

### 5. Why it took off

- The need is real: Brazilians want theatrical films and series for free, and licensed streaming requires a subscription. The comment "vale mais a pena pagar app de streaming" reads as users coming in precisely to avoid paying.

- How it gets past review: the store page is disguised as a poster-design and gesture-mini-game app, the catalog only opens with a passcode, and it's controlled server-side so Apple's review can't see it (iTunes description; TechTudo; comments).

- The distribution is already in place: the name "Comp Study" was pushed by TikTok tutorial accounts, X, Telegram and TechTudo in 2025, and there's a group of regulars looking for "the new Comp Study". FilmNova launched 2026-08-28, right as the previous app 7–September got pulled (TikTok comments: 07-30 "Ele não tá mais na AppStore", 09-20 "o de planta saiu do ar").

- Low bar in small-country category charts: Angola, Portugal, and Brazil's Entertainment Top Free are cheap to reach, and once there you get extra organic traffic.

- Ad monetization doesn't rely on users paying, so there are no payment records for refunds or complaints. Users say there are more and more ads (negative reviews complaining about ads starting 10-15), which suggests the operator raised ad volume and harvested while the shell was still alive.

### 6. Differentiation

No product differentiation: it does the same thing as Cine Mood, Read Progre, Seekee, Zapi, and others, and the interface follows the same disguise playbook. Its only "difference" is carrying the name "Comp Study", which has recognition in Brazil's TikTok community, and happening to be the shell that still works right now. The brand relay is why it ran, not the product.

### 7. How many people have seen it

- The name "Comp Study" is no longer a secret in Brazil: TechTudo 2025-08 wrote a dedicated piece, and the TikTok tutorial videos add up to tens of millions of views.

- The FilmNova shell itself: x-radar finds no related content for "comp study" or "filmnova" in the last 60 days; no one has disclosed revenue; there are only auto-generated pages from aggregator sites like AppBrain and chrome-stats.

- Copycats have already formed clusters (see the competitor table).

### 8. What to borrow

- "Brand prefix + shell swapping": the main brand name stays the same, and each shell gets a suffix, so old users searching the main brand find the new shell. This mechanism works for any category where accounts often get banned.

- TikTok "tutorial + ask for the new name in comments": the video never says it outright, it pushes people into the comments, which lifts engagement and recommendations.

- Arbitrage in small-country and small-category charts: the bar for Entertainment Top Free in Angola and Portugal is low.

- The whole playbook violates App Store rules and copyright law, accounts can be banned at any time, so don't copy it.

### 9. Still unclear

- Whether FilmNova is run by the Cinema_br channel (a promo post from 2025 says so, but it's not certain the current shell is the same group).

- What the current passcode is, and whether it's gated by region or IP.

- Which specific TikTok accounts are pointing to FilmNova by name (no high-view video naming "FilmNova" directly was found).

- Actual downloads and ad revenue (AppSprint's estimates are unverified).

- How long it can last: someone on TikTok already says "o app foi banido", but Apple's lookup on 11-06 can still find it, so maybe only some users can't get in. (10-27)
