Works great for me!

I was using TV time, and switched to this. Very glad I did. It’s easy for me to use, keeps track of what I’m watching, and keeps me well organized. It has not crashed or done anything weird, so it works great for me. I’d certainly recommend anyone to give it a try.

Works well. Interface is a bit busy though, and one too many notification

It's a really good alternative to TV Time. The interface is richer than what I need. TV TIME was better on this front, but it's OK.
Also, I got two notifications for one episode, one when it's about to air, one when it's out ; I need one only as I'm not in the timezone where I need to be notificatied the show starts in 5min.

Updated 3 years ago?!

Seriously?! You haven’t updated your app in 3 years?! Why would people use it if you’ve basically abandoned it?! Show the people you care by updating the app and removing the VIP-only uploads!! Personally I have no reason to use your service.

Lost all my data

I spent hours uploading my data. I guess it updates logged me out and I’ve used the login and password that I signed up with. It wouldn’t log in so I used reset password and it didn’t find me. So lost many hours of work. I would give this a zero if I could but unfortunately I cannot so will have to re-sign up and spend another few hours deleting up. I didn’t have an import file so that is not an option.

Average

Not as good as tv time. Need to show the air dates and expected air dates of the episodes. Tv time did. Here, it’s just blank. Just the title of the show. Annoying.

RIP off

Since TV Time is shutting down I decided to download this and use the free version. Except every time I try to do anything it says due to high demand this request is temporarily part of our PRO/VIP PACKAGE. They cost upto £249.

Response from developer

We've run out of capacity and had to disable the free imports. Our datacenters are actively looking for the needed hardware, due to RAM/NVME shortages and 4X prices as well as holidays, there are delays. Most data centers do not have the necessary high-end equipment available. Monthly pricing for 12 months of PRO starts at $ 2.91/mo.

Profiteurs de guerre

Je me suis tourné vers cette appli par obligation à la suite de la fermeture de TV Time. Résultat : comme ils savent que ça va fermer, ils ont restreint la possibilité d’importer les données de TV Time aux seuls utilisateurs payants. J’appelle ça des profiteurs de guerre et des opportunistes. Ils peuvent se gratter, je ne suis pas du genre à me laisser prendre en otage.

Due to millions of TV Time members looking for a new home, we've run out of capacity pretty quickly and had to disable the free imports. Our datacenters are actively looking for the needed hardware, due to RAM/NVME shortages and 4X prices as well as holidays, there are delays. Most data centers do not have the necessary high-end equipment available.

The worst interface in history

I’ve never seen such a terrible interface. Whoever wrote it has no idea what they’re doing. The app won’t show you common and standard options like get out of list view. You have to use a web browser for that. In which case what good is the app. All in all the worst app I’ve ever seen.

Simkl Lists app is designed to quickly mark episodes from your existing Simkl Watchlists. Please make sure to use fully featured apps like Simkl PWA from https://simkl.com/apps/

TVTime refugee just signed up!

The fact that they offer to pull your TVTime data in makes it worth a try. But this service is great. Agree with some that the app needs a big update. But the website for the app is incredible. I’ll be hoping for an app upgrade while transferring my data over. This app is the closest to TVTime that I could find of a tracker and social media app combination. Hope the developers make the app as beautiful and feature rich as the website soon cause I love what I’ve found so far!!

Good but needs an update

I just moved over from TV Time and from first glance this app doesn’t everything I need it to but I think to make the app even better it would be nice if when sorting the tvs, anime and movies have a section for all of them in one table and same with searching them, as well as have a sorting filter where you can have the top one being the last watched not just air date and episodes left.

Overall good app

Deleting it 5min after I downloaded

I saw this app recommended as TV Time won’t be available anymore. Thought I give it a try. I guess many did the same as they “had to” make the import only available for pro/vip members. And ONLY the TV Time import is limited, the other 20+ type of import is available for free. Nice try making money on people looking for their new reliable app. Jokes. Will be deleting it.

Web app vs IOS app

The web app is really good and complete, the iOS app not so much. I should be able to ignore past episodes of long running shows so they don't live forever in my next watch list. There needs to be more option on how to view your watch list, and the only way to access your profile and settings is through the web app.

Needs a rework

This is defiantly not easy app to get around. There was like 4 steps to get to the individual episodes. Just have to make it more of the style of tv time or other top tracking apps cause this is rough to get around at first.

why can’t I choose a simple password? It’s bloody TV shows tracking!

Why do I have to use a password at all?

You can use login with Apple or login with Google. If you have already created an email and password type account, you can connect these in https://simkl.com/settings/login/ for a quick one-press login.

Achtung Abofalle

Beim Start der App wird man durch Werbung in eine Abofalle von XRAcedemy gelockt, welche nach 1 Tag monatlich 49,99€ von einem wollen.
Leider sehr unseriös mit solchen Werbepartnern (von denen simkli sicherlich gut vergütet wird) zusammenzuarbeiten.

Unloved App

The last update to this app was over 3 years ago, and it shows, it’s a messy, feature-less clunky mess. This “app” looks like a high school project rather than a professional app!
