### 2/5 — Meh.

*2025-10-06, version 4.5.0*

Have been using this app for years.  All sudden it no longer has new shows. I’ve tried to email the developers and occasionally they will add them but usually no response. Very frustrating.   
An app to track episodes that doesn’t add new shows is not very useful.

### 3/5 — Please fix and update the app!!!

*2025-08-07*

I’m begging you. The interface is perfect for me, the mechanics and all. Everything is simple and fast.

Correction: was, not “is” anymore. I guess updating the app was the biggest mistake I made. Ever since finished shows are permanently in the unfinished list marked something like “13/12 episodes watched” and it’s unfixable. New episodes are not listed. App randomly crashes and etc 

I’ve tried other apps, but inevitably come back to this because of its simplicity and interface.

Please please please fix it!!!

### 2/5 — Used to be amazing! Now not up to date

*2024-05-20, version 4.3.1*

Great app but I’ve noticed recently it’s not up to date so I’ve been missing my shows which is the whole point of the app.

### 3/5 — Last update annoying

*2023-03-01, version 4.3.1*

The last update adding sound upon opening the app and it’s as annoying as asmr !! Can you mute this !?

### 4/5 — I like this a lot.

*2022-04-26, version 4.3.1*

I’ve been using this app for years now, and it’s the only one out there that’s simple, functional and for me, pretty darned important. 
Add a show you don’t want to miss episodes of - anything from big US box sets to little 30 min UK comedy shows; get it to add them to your calendar with an alert and Bob’s your uncle. 
Oh and pay the developer a tiny amount to get rid of ads.

Great stuff.

### 3/5 — typically a really good app …

*2022-03-16, version 4.3.0*

Since the latest update, the app won’t open.

### 4/5 — Mir good than not

*2022-02-03, version 4.2.7*

It’s a really awesome app. I’m obsessed with keeping the shows I watch on a list and tracking them this is perfect. 

But even though I paid for premium I am still seeing ads which is very annoying. Also the syncing of the iPhone and iPad version isn’t the best but thats not a big issue.

### 2/5 — Keeps track... but

*2021-04-04, version 4.2.7*

App no longer pulls up any episode summary like it used to. Makes me sad.

*Edit
I am now unable to add any more shows...? Every time I search it just gives a big fat X. Sigh

### 4/5 — It just stopped updating.

*2020-05-30, version 4.2.7*

I loved this app and have relied heavily on it for a few years.  But recently I have noticed tons of
Shows that I do have saved are currently playing but not coming up on my calendar.  I love you guys and would even purchase a version if needed be.  So simple yet totally effective it’s all I need.

### 3/5 — Syncing feature between devices never works at all!

*2019-12-26, version 4.1.8*

I’ve had this app for years now and the syncing between my iPad (where I primarily have my watched data on) and my iPhone has never worked. Now they’ve removed having accounts on the app to completely iCloud reliant which still doesn’t work. I am very disappointed as backup and sync features should not be advertised if no attention by the developers is going to be paid to it. To make it worse, all the fixes in app make no difference whatsoever

### 3/5 — Live this app but.....

*2019-12-14, version 4.1.8*

I love this app and have been using it for a long time now. It used to give us the option of updating shows when we opened it. Now it automatically updates when opened. By doing so it moves all the shows on the schedule for that day to the next week. I want to know which of my shows are playing today so I can mark them off as I watch them not search for them. Please don’t allow it to update the current date of shows until the day after.

### 4/5 — Love Love Love! ❤️👏🏾🙏🏾🎊🙌🏾

*2019-01-02, version 4.1.8*

This app is extremely underrated! I needed a way to track my bing watching and my regular tv viewing. It is sooo easy to use and track episodes. Only thing I wish was improved is 1)an option to suggest show updates I’ve noticed some shows “Iyanla fix my life” hasn’t been updated with the shows lates seasons & 2) the streaming platform shows like some Netflix and Facebook shows like “RedTable Talks” are not available. That’s the ONLY reason i gave 4stars instead of 5. So thankful for this app!!!!!

### 1/5 — Fix the app

*2018-08-26, version 4.1.3*

Every release this app gets worst / more bug’ie. latest release clears all your progress. When you spend time marking things complete. Next time you open the app, none of it saved. What a waste of time using this crappy app.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2018-08-21, version 4.1.0*

Have loved this app for years...even paid for premium. This is the second time an update knocked out my data. A number of shows I know I haven’t watched say there are no episodes available. Had just added a number of new shows to watch recently and it’s all gone now.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-04-26, version 4.5.0*

The app just doesn’t work anymore. I’m guessing the devs have stopped caring about this?

### 1/5 — Secretly Tracking You

*2024-08-29, version 4.5.0*

I care about my privacy and do not use apps that track my activity. I liked the simplicity lf this app PAID for the pro version (to support the developers) and been using it for years. However in the past few years the functionality has been stagnant but they made sure to pass updates for the app where NOW they TRACK your activity, which is REALLY disappointing. 
Deleting ✂️

### 1/5 — Will not open since last update

*2024-06-23, version 4.5.0*

Since last update, will immediately close when opened

### 1/5 — No longer updates

*2021-12-31, version 4.2.7*

Used to be great but no longer updates seasons; try something else!

### 1/5 — Crap!

*2020-09-09, version 4.2.7*

This is just a crap app now. Been using for a long long time but it just does not update with the  latest programs  or episodes any more.

### 1/5 — Не трогайте

*2018-10-03*

Как можно было так испортить более-менее рабочее приложение?
Последние два обновления перечеркивают всю его работу до этого: первый раз сбросились просмотры, второй раз все серии дублируются.

### 1/5 — On the verge of deleting this app!

*2018-10-03, version 4.1.7*

Every time there is an update, all of my shows are reset to unwatched?!! Stop updating the app, you’re making it worse!!

### 1/5 — Lost all info

*2018-09-19, version 3.06*

This app worked well for several years.  But I chose to re-sync my shows and all the data disappeared.  I still have a show list, but all the episodes and what I watched just disappeared.  The list of episode titles no longer shows.   I tried to rebuild the database, but nothing happened.

### 1/5 — Now Worse Than Ever With Latest Updates

*2018-08-29, version 4.1.6*

8/26: Nope, nope, nope! Absolutely zero improvement from the update 21 hours ago.
Series with no scheduled next episodes are still listed before those with next episode dates, in no discernible order.
It seems that my entire watching history is gone. New seasons and new series are starting but I had a record of episodes I still haven’t seen. I’m several seasons into Shameless, somewhere in Season 4. Clicking on seasons of this & every other series wipes them clean as though I’ve seen none of the episodes of that season.
8/25: I see there were several updates since I last used this app to update my recent watching history. It was fine earlier this month (Aug 2018) but now is a complete, or rather, incomplete mess.
Some eps being counted twice yielding double the actual number of episodes. When clicking on the Season # indicating already watched eps, no eps are shown & when closed it switches to no episodes have been watched.
Please fix. It’s worse than before the new versions.

### 1/5 — New version is full of bugs

*2018-08-28, version 4.1.4*

This used to be a very good app until the last update.
I have got so fed up with all the errors that I have now stopped using this app.

### 5/5 — The Best

*2024-07-01, version 4.5.0*

This is the best TV Episode tracker that I’ve ever had since long time ago and I’m very happy that’s still here in the App Store, not like the others which the developer not updated anymore. I’m using iPhone 15 Pro - IOS 17.5 and I’m very and still works thats why I come here just to leave my experience and review.

### 5/5 — Tele Tracking At its Finest.

*2018-10-12, version 4.1.8*

For me Episoder has always been the ultimate in TV Tracking on ios. But now with iCloud syncing, the app has entered a new dimension. And I'm loving it!

Thanks to the developer Danny, for responding promptly to an enquiry and having it fixed in 20 mins.  Great work.

### 5/5 — Best TV Episode List App available

*2018-10-06, version 4.1.8*

I’ve downloaded a lot of free apps to track my tv shows and this one is by far the best! What I love most about the app is being able to easily see how many Unwatched episodes I have for all my shows, which appear on my To Watch list. When a show is up to date and all episodes are watched, it’s removed from my list until a new episode airs. Other apps don’t do this! There are a few glitches every once in a while, but the support team is very responsive and issues are fixed quickly.

### 5/5 — It’s ok now

*2018-10-05*

The unwatched stuff fixed in the latest update, phew.

### 5/5 — Great Support

*2018-08-31, version 4.1.6*

Episoder worked great for the longest time. August 2018 I ran into some issues and sent a message to the developer. He took a look at my database personally and pushed out a fix within 24 hours. Can't beat service like that.

### 5/5 — Great for tracking what you watch

*2018-08-23, version 4.1.0*

A great app that I use every day. The developer has continually improved functionality, reliability and the user interface.

### 5/5 — Good app to track your favorite TV shows

*2018-08-14, version 4.0.6*

The latest update brought a lot of improvements.

### 5/5 — Great app with bugs

*2018-08-13, version 4.0.2*

The rating is for the app in general, but there are some bugs with the latest update:
- doubling of episodes (changes will be coming)
- unwatched by progress - the shows are not in alphabetical order
- unwatched by date - the app crashes

### 5/5 — Best TV Tracker app

*2017-12-02, version 3.64*

This is the best TV tracker app. I've tried many other TV tracker apps. All I want is a simple UI to see my list of shows and the episodes by season and then see ones that are coming up and ones I've missed as well as a calendar view. This app does that.

I have a few suggestions:
• Support for special episodes
• On the list of seasons page for a show, add the number of episodes the season has next to each season number. Also add the year numbers for the season like 2016 - 2017
• Support episode images in addition to the description on the episode details page
• Dark theme would be nice for those late night viewings and save battery on iPhone X. The current text and banner color choices are nice but if we could change the background color too that would be great.
• Option to turn on episode notifications for all shows (not have to manually turn on for each episode from calendar tab) and set the time zone for notifications (show is on ‪10 PM EST‬, but notify ‪at 9 PM CST‬)

### 5/5 — Best tv tracking app!

*2017-03-29, version 3.60*

I love this app!  I have tried every free app and this is the best one.  No ads.  They even tell me how much time I have watched.  It tells whether shows are running, producing or canceled.  And they have a calendar/back up add on for only 1.99 This is a great app, I recommend to any tv lovers like me!

Love the update!! The personalization options are very nice thanks!!

***I had issues with shows not updating, started using a $1.99 tv tracker app, it SUCKED compared to this one.  I complained to episoder support and they fixed it so fast!  I am back to this app, going on four years.  Love it, recommend it above all others!  I have tried every free app and the cheap ones.  THIS APP IS BETTER THEN THEM ALL!!!
