Very Slow

I just downloaded Marathon for the first time and love the format of it! My only concern is that it has been very slow when trying to click anything. Has this been happening to other people or is it just me? I want to keep using it, it’s just been a little frustrating.

Great app

Love this app! I enjoy trying to categorize my shows and seeing what I’ve watched before. Definitely helps me keep track of everything. The only thing that would make this app even better would be if there was an option to add your movie/show in your lists on the same page as the info page and where you click you’ve watched/completed it. Would make the whole listing process so much smoother. Overall, awesome app

Well designed app, like Letterboxd for TV.

I’ve been looking for an app like this for so long, and this is the only good one I’ve found so far.

Beautiful app for tracking TV.

Was looking for a Letterboxd style experience for tracking TV shows, and Marathon is a gorgeous way to do so. The app is simple, yet powerful and pulling info from Justwatch means that you can easily see what services shows are on as well.

I’d love to see some sort of ‘Want to watch’ list added in the future. Right now I’m sort of using the ‘Paused’ list for this functionality, but I’d love to separate shows that I’d like to continue from ones I haven’t started yet.

Great app

Great app

so useful & amazing design

couldn't use it properly though because it's too slow :(

Unbelievably good but

Please improve the content discovery features, I can barely remember what I watched today, let alone a week ago. Otherwise the app is the best there is like this.

Exactly what I wanted

This app is awesome! It’s a little buggy, but I’m sure it’ll be just as popular as Letterboxd in no time. I really love the feature of marking each episode and seeing your percentage of the series watched as a whole so I can keep track of what to catch up on 😁

Seems decent but not enough to ditch my current app

I’ve used TV Show Tracker for a long time now and love it but when I read about Marathon I thought I’d give it a go. Now I’m probably not the core audience for this app as I don’t really care about the social features, just tv show tracking. And for that TVST is still way better for me. A sleeker more intuitive interface. This one gets the job done but I feel like isn't laid out as well.

The deal breaker for me though was not being to mark ALL previous episodes as watched. You can only seemingly do it by seasons. So if you add a show like SNL which is in season 48, you’re going to have individually mark 47 previous seasons as watched. At the very least this app needs a “mark all episodes up to a chosen episode as watched.”

I can’t figure out why TVST isn’t more widely known. I’ve used every TV tracking app I’ve ever heard about over the years and so far TVST wins by a long shot.
