Hard to track

It’s hard to track anything with this app. There is no continue watching feed to see what’s next on your list. You can’t even mark tv show episodes as seen individually so how can you tell where in the series you are? This seems like a new app that needs a lot of work and most of the cool features are behind a paywall. Stick to TVTime it’s free and does tracking the right way.

I use it daily

I love being able to track the movies and shows I watch, and discover new ones. It’s great to be able to see top shows and movies by streaming service and only show the services I have. Plus I enjoy being to see if a show or movie is based in a book. This is a great app.

Thank you for the kind words!

Thanks Limelight!

Limelight has it all. I love that I can find everything out about a movie or show I’m curious about. I can see all the reviews and scores from different sites and where to watch them, which is super convenient. I also love that you can see if the movie or show was based off a book! Another cool feature is the movie/tv scan, which I’ve never seen. It allows you to take a picture of whatever you’re watching and it tells you what you’re watching! Very neat feature…like Shazam for visual media. Can’t recommend this app enough!
