Email import of tickets
You could use the Mailgun incoming mail API to generate a user specific address, get a webhook of a parsed email and then push it down to the device via push notification. That way you could mostly avoid having to have a server side database of users.
It would be great to import AMC but also Regal and do best effort importing of other chains such as Alamo Drafthouse. Would probably suggest having actual hardcoded parsers for the first two and then use a LLM for parsing best effort. (This request was originally merged into an unrelated one accidentally).

I’ve actually just started playing around with a few options for this. For simplicity sake I’d like to build a Shortcut automation users can install, which will monitor an e-mail inbox and parse them using the on board models. I haven’t had a ton of time to dig into it, but initial findings seem promising. In the newest update I added several app intents. Which can be used in Shortcuts and will serve as a foundation for importing. If someone is savvy enough with Shortcuts they may be able to get it working fairly well already. If that doesn’t pan out I will absolutely reach out. I want to be able to make this happen.
