Platyn is a PlayStation trophy tracker for iPhone and Apple Watch. Sign in with your PlayStation Network account and your whole trophy collection is there: every game, every list, and a clear read on which platinum you are closest to finishing. YOUR LIBRARY, PROPERLY ORGANISED - Every title on your account, PS5, PS4 and older platforms alike, with per-game progress - Full trophy lists with bronze, silver, gold and platinum tiers, rarity percentages and earned dates - DLC trophy groups shown as their own sections, with their own progress - Hidden trophies handled the way Sony intends, with a reveal toggle when you want to see them anyway - Search, and filter by platform or completion CLOSEST TO PLATINUM Home leads with the games you are nearest to finishing and what is left to earn, so the next session picks itself. Below it, a running feed of the trophies you earned most recently. YOUR PROFILE AT A GLANCE Games tracked, trophies earned by tier, and your platinum rate. ON YOUR WRIST Pin the game you are hunting from its detail screen, and the Apple Watch app carries its remaining trophies and your lifetime totals, with a complication that puts your progress on your watch face. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Closest to Platinum and Latest Trophies as Home Screen widgets, and your closest platinum on the Lock Screen, all without opening the app. BUILT TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY There is no Platyn account to create. You sign in through Sony's own login page, so your password never reaches us, and your library is stored on your device, which means it opens instantly and your games and progress are still there offline. No ads, no analytics, no tracking. TRY IT FIRST Tap Explore with sample data on the first screen and walk through the entire app with an invented library. No PlayStation account needed to look around. PLATYN PRO Trophy tracking is free, including your full library and the small widget. Platyn Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks the Apple Watch app, the medium and Lock Screen widgets, and future Pro features. It supports Family Sharing. Platyn is an independent app from Lunium AB. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Sony Interactive Entertainment.
