Follow World of Warcraft's Race to World First in real time. Azeroth Watch tracks Mythic raid progress across every competing guild, built on Raider.IO's live data: • Feed — Raider.IO's own live coverage posts, as they happen • Tracker — every guild's current standings, ranked by bosses down. Pin your favorite guilds to keep them visible, and filter to one region if you only care about local guilds • Bosses — who's claimed World First on each boss, plus the closest live pull on ones still unclaimed. Tap any boss to see every kill on it, ranked — and a direct link to watch the kill on Twitch • Heartbreak — every close call under your chosen threshold on a boss nobody's killed yet, with a "trending toward a kill" indicator on live pulls • News — general WoW patch notes and tuning changes from Wowhead, so you know why a guild's pace just changed Tap into any guild for their full boss-by-boss progression — kill times, pull counts, live pull progress — plus a link to their stream when they're live. Push notifications keep you posted even when the app's closed. New Feed Posts, Major Heartbreaker close-call alerts, and World First kill announcements are each independently toggleable, alongside a separate toggle for WoW news. Want to follow the race without spoilers? Turn on Spoiler-Free Mode and kill announcements are redacted until you're ready to look. A Live Activity puts the race leader's current boss and best live pull right on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, updating in real time even while the app is closed — and when the race finally ends, a dedicated Race Complete push and recap screen show you the final standings. A watchOS companion app and complications put the current boss and closest pull right on your wrist, and a home screen widget keeps it visible without opening the app. Full VoiceOver support throughout. Azeroth Watch is a fan-made, unofficial companion app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Blizzard Entertainment, Raider.IO, or Wowhead. All race data is provided by Raider.IO; all WoW news is provided by Wowhead.
