CouchQueue is a shared TV planner for households. Keep track of what you are watching, what is ready to watch next, and what you are waiting on. CouchQueue syncs through iCloud so everyone in the household can stay on the same list. Features: Track shows across Watching, Ready, and Waiting lists. Share one household queue with another iCloud user. See the next season for each show at a glance. Open and manage your planner from iPhone. Use the Apple TV app as a couch-friendly view for choosing what to watch and updating show status. CouchQueue is built for simple household coordination: less “what episode are we on?” and more watching.
