And every morning I get a notification in your app that there’s no connection to the internet. And I have to tap the OK button every time. I obviously have internet service as other apps are fine, but this one complains every morning. And of course after tapping ok, everything is fine. I know this is a stupid complaint but are there really that many users out there with spotty internet that care to be notified with an obtrusive dialog they have to respond to? Anyway its a great app and I debated even sending this along, but figured you’d rather know that people like me care very much for this app and want it to be the best :) I tried to enter this in the feedback within the app but it gave an error sending lol ### 4/5 — Please update Trakt API *2022-04-07, version 1.8* Please fix Trakt syncing and add the option to check into movies ### 3/5 — Why no updates? *2022-01-29, version 1.8* This is a great app….if only they would update it. I have a list of shows I would like to track but they aren’t in the catalog which is hit or miss on finding shows. I tried to email requests for missing shows but it fails every time. I love the minimal design as other apps are all over the place like an ADHD toddler with features I don’t want. Can someone please update this. I would even pay for this app if it worked. ### 3/5 — Needs update *2021-09-11, version 1.8* This was our go to app for up to date information about most shows. It hasn’t had an update since 2017 and it’s starting to show. Shows not showing up. Multiple episodes duplicated with different titles. Closes unexpectedly. Shows just disappear. Please update this app when it running well it’s the best app out there to keep up with the shows you want to watch. ### 1/5 — Should have been 5 Stars *2020-04-04, version 1.8* New shows such as Godfather of Harlem or Freud were missing. Old popular shows from the 70s and 80s are absent or have no episodes. Trakt imports only a few of your listed shows and neither their played history. The idea and the software deserve 5 stars but the import, setting up and database are just frustrating... Reelgood isn’t much better unfortunately. ### 1/5 — Used to be useful *2020-04-03, version 1.8* Was a great app. And now it is totally broken! Won’t sync! Won’t let me update. Nothing but “network errors”. Don’t waste your time downloading ### 4/5 — Great for tracking shows, with multiple profiles *2019-10-25, version 1.7.3* Only had it for a few days, easy to locate and configure shows. Works well with apple profiles so we each have our own shows visible. Sometimes shows have the wrong pic. It’s easy to report missing shows and other issues. ### 1/5 — Support seems to be dead. *2019-10-22, version 1.7.3* Loved this app. Was invaluable, used it daily. Unfortunately over the last few months it seems as if it’s been abandoned. New shows/episodes don’t appear, and while reporting them used to have it fixed in less than a day, now nothing. A real shame because this was leagues better than the Apple TV app and there isn’t anything comparable. ### 1/5 — No longer updating? *2019-09-26, version 1.7.3* Most of the new fall shows aren’t in the database. I’ll need to find a new app. ### 2/5 — Okay *2019-07-27, version 1.7.3* It's not bad, but there are too many inaccuracies and delays. I've found TV Time to be better for me. ### 4/5 — Great app *2019-06-26, version 1.7.3* An almost indispensable app. There are some things that it won’t track, which is why the four star rating. ### 2/5 — Not updating *2019-03-28, version 1.7.1* Could be a very good app, but is not updating hardly anything from my trakt account. Making it almost useless ### 4/5 — Great App but support not getting support *2019-02-16, version 1.7* The app is so leaps and bounds ahead of the built-in AppleTV app. However, unlike some here who have indicated that the support from the developer is great I am now several days into asking for support with no response. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No support *2022-10-06, version 1.8* They sadly seem to have disappeared. They no longer take suggestions for additions or updates. They don’t even have Andor or The Rings of Power. I’m using TV Time to track shows. Reelgood follows more services and seems like a far better version of this app for finding out where things are streaming. ### 1/5 — Abandoned *2022-05-26, version 1.8* Don’t download this app. It’s been abandoned and should be removed from the store. ### 1/5 — Unable to add shows *2021-12-26, version 1.8* Shows unable to be added. Wrong status of shows. ### 1/5 — Turned to garbage *2021-12-07, version 1.8* What used to be a useful app has turned into a dust covered piece of garbage that the developers have forgotten about. The UX remains its ugly brown and notifications no longer work (the toggles don’t stay out) which is the essence of the app’s function. WatchAid has died of aids. ### 1/5 — Tracking shows *2021-06-29, version 1.8* Not the best track app. Don't waste your time. ### 1/5 — Developer gone, app dead *2020-11-07, version 1.8* Booooooooo !! Best app ever, but dying a slow death. I am so bitter that the developer left without warning. Developer stopped loading new shows. I would have taken this over if developer hadn’t just disappeared. ### 1/5 — RIP *2020-09-26, version 1.8* This was such a great app, but apparently it has been abandoned. Emails and show requests go unanswered. ### 1/5 — has potential but fails *2020-09-19, version 1.8* the app has great potential but unfortunately many of the shows are not updated, nor is the app itself, and there is no way to report errors. ### 1/5 — Not updated *2020-07-08, version 1.8* Loved this app, but it seems to have been abandoned. No longer getting show updates. Kinda useless now. ### 1/5 — Updated! - Reduced to 1 star *2020-05-27, version 1.8* Don’t bother. Waste of time. Developer has abandoned this app! Look to my other reviews of this app and you’ll see I gave it a 5 star originally. However, the developer has left the store and will not add new series or new seasons. Without the developers continued support the app is worthless. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It’s Working For Me!? *2020-08-30, version 1.8* I see people posting it’s been abandoned, but it seems to be working for me perfectly. I’m gonna look a little closer as this is by far the simplest way to track what’s been watched. Reeltime offers more info, but I use them both... sometimes I just want to see what’s available now! ### 5/5 — Simple app is what you need! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ *2020-02-02, version 1.8* This is great and easy to add your favorite TV shows. All you do is click on it and it leads you to open other app in no time! Keep it up, developers! ### 5/5 — Best ever App to keep up with my shows *2020-01-06, version 1.8* The is the best App I've found so far to keep up with my shows. Keep up the good work. ### 5/5 — Franba66 *2019-12-12, version 1.8* Great ### 5/5 — Excellent Alternative to TV App *2019-11-01, version 1.7.3* Ever since Apple decided to fill the TV app with advertisements for iTunes purchases/rentals and subscription services in tvOS 13, I’ve been looking for an alternative. I just want a simple app that allows me to track my TV watching across all of the different services I use. WatchAid is perfect for this and I’m so glad the app is here to fill the void left by Apple. I have it on all my devices now and don't expect I’ll be looking Alba I anytime soon. ### 5/5 — Best App For Streamers *2019-08-16, version 1.7.3* I don’t typically write reviews... but this is seriously one of the best apps ### 5/5 — Apple TV must! *2019-06-03, version 1.7.2* This app is a must for those who have dumped traditional cable. I can see where my favorite shows are and how to stream them on my phone or Apple TV. It’s what the TV app wants to be. Very responsive and friendly support. ### 5/5 — Love my Watch Aid! *2019-01-22, version 1.6.5* Best app ever for listing all your favorite shows with current and future airing dates. I love it!!! ### 5/5 — Watch Aid *2018-06-26, version 1.6.5* WatchAid is a Apple TV Tuner/DVR App done the right way. I do nothing but complain about getting around Apple TV. The way Video Apps are written today are a joke. I have many subscription apps and WatchAid talks to them in a logical way. Very organized and easy to use daily. Please don’t go away. Thank you ### 5/5 — Nice App *2018-06-06, version 1.6.5* Nice little app does the job of keeping track of your shows. Fairly simple format. Excellent customer support. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
