Sync problems

Love the app but it doesn’t sync between my Apple devices. Even created a SIMKL account and that didn’t help.

Great but needs work

App has a lot of potential, but needs to be supported and improved based on bug reports and feature requests. Please don’t abandon this app!

Minimalist heaven

Best movies and tv shows tracker if you’re looking for minimal features, no social and no tracking. 4 stars instead of 5 due to minor UX quirks.

Has promise but not optimized for MacOS

Sleek interface. Works great on iOS. On MacOS there is a major oversight Iin that the core feature - being able to search for shows appears to be broken (or hard to find and I can’t find it). When I go to my watch list, there is a search box. There is no search box in any other tab. Core functionality that doesn’t work. I will gladly update to 5 star if this gets fixed.

A Hidden Gem

I’ve been on the hunt for an app like this for ages, especially one that doesn’t depend on or just wrap around a service like Trakt, where you need a paid account to truly enjoy the perks. Cronica is straightforward, easy to use, and does exactly what I need, including syncing with iCloud and keeping track of individual episodes. The only thing that would make it even better for me is the ability to export my data as a .CSV. The app does offer a backup in JSON format, but the flat CSV is more versatile and easier to work with. I’d be happy to tip the developer again if they ever add a .CSV export in a future version.

It’s great, but for me can’t replace IMDB only stand aside it

This is a great app, well designed, not cluttered and smooth. But I never watch a movie without checking the IMDB score. So it would be great to see that in the app. The other less but still important thing is being able to see what movies cinemas around you are showing like in the IMDB app.

Fantastica, ma c’è qualche bug

L’idea dell’app è bella, le funzionalità pure. Metto 4 e non 5 stelle per via di qualche bug, che in futuro verranno rimossi

Maravilla

La mejor app que he visto en tiempo para seguimiento de series y pelis. Ojalá sigan mejorándola y añadiendo cosas, porque es una pasada

Muito bom

Muito bom, apesar de faltar alguns recursos importantes, como a sincronização com o trak.tv

Super useful

Nice open-source app to check out information about the series I’m watching on different streaming platforms in one central place

Nice

This watchlist app is unbeatable. After trying countless other terrible options such as, IMDb, Letterboxd, and more bloated + clunky apps, Cronica stands out in comparison. It focuses simply on what matters: tracking your Movies and TV Shows. Anything beyond that is pointless. This app is everything a watchlist manager should be and it’s the only one that doesn’t insult your intelligence.

Incrível

O aplicativo é ótimo e cumpre o que promete de maneira primorosa! É muito fácil de acompanhar as séries que estamos assistindo! Procurei por anos e testei a maioria dos apps que prometem a mesma coisa, mas só esse realmente entrega o que promete de maneira linda e compatível esteticamente com o design da Apple! Sincronismo com Trackt.tv seria incrível, bem como link direto para o conteúdo!

Amazing

Loving it and can’t wait to see what comes next. It’s basic, simple, and beautiful to use. Please keep working on it, this has become my essential app.

Response from developer

Thank you! I’ll keep working on it!

Fast and pretty but where are the directors

Very nice app with a native interface.
On a movie page it’s difficult to find the director’s name maybe it should be separated from the list of actors.

Kostenlos und hübsch, aber kein Export

Wenn man nur ohne Kosten etwas tracken möchte sicher nicht verkehrt, für mich ist es mangels Export und fehlendem Geschäftsmodell eher nichts, falls die App nach einem Jahr nicht mehr existiert…

Bisher nutzte ich (seit 20 Jahren) IMDb für Filme und (seit 10 Jahren) WatchApp 2 auf Sync-Basis von Trakt für Serien (wobei dort auch Filme möglich wären, aber eben keine eigenen Bewertungen).

Perfect

Amazing work, especially considering all supported platforms. And open source too. Thank you.

I just loving. but some Features would be helpful

. simple.. i love it

i problem i have is no reorder option for list?.. if yes how to do it..
If no please add it..

Also statistics feature would be really cool

Pretty Good. Couple of Suggestions

It’s pretty good. I do have one feature request and one ~fix.

Feature: Can you add the option to keep a series off the watch list until the entire season is available? I hate watching one episode per week and would rather wait until the whole season or miniseries is fully available.

Fix: Can you automatically focus the search field when the search menu item is tapped? That would bring up the keyboard and make the whole process quicker and easier.

Fix: When you are on a search result page, tapping the search menu item should take you back to the top-level search page, IMO. Other apps do this and it’s nice.

Great app otherwise. Keep up the good work!

Can’t wait anything from the app lol

So this app is essentially the same thing as keeping track of, manually, what you want to watch… separate to the app of where you can actually watch it. After manually adding a show to this app, and after watching it on…and from… say Netflix, you still have to come back to THIS app, to mark it “watched.” It does not interface at all with other apps, besides letting you add shows to a list (like Notepad, or any other manual list, would do).
