best tv show tracking app

this is the best tv show tracking app out there and it’s leaving and I’m in mourning :( nothing compares to

Great app, please make one for movies.

Love the app, super intuitive to use. I would appreciate it if you would grace us with a similar app for movies. I tried Letterboxd, it’s not great you could do better. Thanks in advance.

great app, but crashes

started crashing several weeks ago, reinstalling it only caused it to open to black screen. The website works fine but does not have all the functionality of the app.

Amazing App for Tracking TV Series

I don’t leave reviews often but I Love this app so much that I had to!! It is everything I’ve been wanting. It gives me notifications when new episodes are airing and I can see a calendar log of shows upcoming. It is super easy to mark off each episode you watch as well and I haven’t ran in to a show that isn’t in the database. I hope this app grows because it is so well made!

Screw Letterboxd, add my Marathon

Works exactly as you’d expect with some innovative features to make updating your show’s progress super easy. It’s not as big as Letterboxd obviously, but that gives an opportunity for your reviews and lists to gain more traction as you’ll be one of the first to review some of the lesser known ones. It’s a little buggy at the moment but makes up for it by just being super easy to use. Def recommend if you’re looking for a “Letterboxd but for TV”

TV is better if you Marathon

Ive been using this app for over a year. It has been unbelievable in my ability to track progress and what I should watch. My memory isn’t that great, but Marathons database so far hasn’t let me down.

Crashes in 18.2

App crashes every time anything entered

Needs Ways to Block Users

I like the app so far but it needs moderation features on the user end to be able to hide reviews, block, and report. There is nothing on the user side that I can find which can create a negative environment.

Beautiful but buggy

This app is awesome but it is really buggy ! Need a TV Time import ! Thanks !

Review

Overall great app. A little slow sometimes and if you remove a show, it’ll be a white screen and you’ll have to close the app. Other than that, it is a great app. A lot of cool things in this app you can’t find in any other tracker app.

Love it so far! But…

I love this app! I’ve tried a bunch of others, yet this one is by far my favorite!

The look and feel is beautiful and modern, and I love how easy it is to log each episode. Thanks for making the notifications free! Other apps I’ve used will make you pay for premium to tell you when an episode drops.

Marathon rocks!

Lame app

I could not set ANY notifications. The only way I believe I could set notifications for shows would be to pay a monthly subscription. Why can’t there be a free app option? This app get 1 star because I uninstalled it the very next day, and couldn’t get any notifications from it.😞

Some issues

Exactly the kind of app I’m looking for, however when trying to add all the shows I’ve watched, the app keeps lagging and glitching. I also wish there was a category for shows your have finished. If there already is than it is hard to navigate.

bugging out like crazy

Can’t hit rewatch without my entire phone crashing, can’t hit entire seasons or shows, been needing to log episode by episode. going insane.

honestly? a letdown

i’m able to add plenty of things to my watchlist but the app will not let me select watch all or even a season on its own. i have to add every individual episode at a time, which if i’m trying to add a long series i’ve already seen it’s incredible tiresome and tedious. also every time i click the “my first watch” tab on a show page the app crashes immediately. i deleted and redownloaded, logged out and in, i don’t really know what else i could do to fix it. it’s a shame because i was excited to use the app, i love watching tv shows and i love reviewing them.

Response from developer

I’m so sorry that you had this experience with Marathon! It seems you might have run into a few bugs, but nothing that we can’t fix for you. If you’d like to submit this feedback through our app, I can assist in resolving this for you

App does not work

It keeps going in a circle of let’s get to know you to choose username which it says is good then back to let’s get to know you.

Issues on iPhone 13 Pro

Some buttons don’t work and crashes sometimes.

Incredibly underrated.

I never leave reviews but this app is perfect. I like it even better than letterbox!

Great concept, keen for the growth

Keen to stick around on this app and watch upgrades come along. Perfect concept

Buggy

A great complement to Letterboxd, which doesn’t include TV shows - but functions incredibly slowly, and crashes too often. Inability to select “Watched all” for a show, which makes logging tedious and time-consuming.
