Here's a few:

Brainstorm - shows the progression of developing technology (in this case a device that can record and playback a subjects' experiences.)

Real Genius - College antics with a bunch of kids developing a stronger laser

Silicon Valley - mini series again about silicon valley culture/developing new tech - also how ideas are discovered and others stumble upon similar, etc.

American Experience: Silicon Valley - documentary of early silicon valley and the people who started the companies

I really liked The Founder about Roy Kroc and McDonalds. Currently on Netflix

Very similar themes and story. Not about an “app” but how McDonalds works is about food preparation innovation and the tech/process behind it. And like The Social Network a lot of people are left in Krocs dust.

I haven’t watched either in a long time, so I can’t remember the vibe, but Pirates of Silicon Valley.
