AniDrop
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your watch list has been lying to you. AniDrop fixes that. Miss a week of releases? Juggling five seasonals at once? AniDrop tracks every episode individually โ so you always know exactly where you left off, what aired while you were gone, and what's dropping next. โ TRACK SMARTER โ PER-EPISODE TRACKING Every broadcast slot is logged separately. Skip a week and AniDrop quietly remembers what you owe โ no manual fixing, no "wait, did I watch that one?" CATCH-UP QUEUE One dedicated queue, oldest unwatched episode first. Mark it done, the next one slides in. Getting through a backlog has never felt this satisfying. LOCK-SCREEN & HOME-SCREEN WIDGETS Six variants โ from a compact inline countdown to a full episode queue right on your home screen. Within two hours of an episode airing, the lock-screen widget starts counting down silently. Your phone becomes an anime dashboard. LOCAL NOTIFICATIONS Get pinged the moment a new episode drops, in your timezone. No app refresh needed. CUSTOM LISTS Watching, completed, dropped โ fine, but you probably need more than that. Build whatever lists make sense for how you watch. MYANIMELIST IMPORT Already tracking on MyAnimeList? Pull everything over in one tap and pick up right where you left off. PROFILE & STATS Total episodes, favourite genres, average rating, watch history โ all visualised. Finally, something to show for all those hours. โ PRIVACY, FOR REAL โ No ads. No analytics. No tracking. Your data lives on EU servers and you can delete it whenever you want. Built by one developer who actually watches anime. --------------------------------------------- Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://suprise7.github.io/anidrop-legal/ AniDrop Pro is an auto-renewable subscription.

SakuraLog โ Anime Tracking, Done Right Keep track of everything you're watching, planning to watch, or can't stop rewatching. SakuraLog is a fast, modern anime tracker built for people who actually use their list โ not just start one and forget it. TRACK YOUR WAY Six real statuses โ Watching, Completed, Planning, Paused, Dropped, and Rewatching โ so your list actually reflects where you're at, not just a checkbox. Rate what you've finished, log rewatches, and jump back into any entry in seconds. NEVER MISS AN EPISODE The Schedule tab shows exactly when your next episode airs, with a live countdown for everything you're currently watching. Get notified when a new episode drops, when a series you've completed gets a new season, or when something new matching your taste starts airing โ and mark it watched right from the notification, no digging through menus required. DISCOVER SOMETHING NEW Browse what's airing this season, check trending and top-rated rankings, or get personalized recommendations based on what you already love. Search AniList's full library and add anything in one tap. SEE YOUR TASTE, VISUALIZED Your profile breaks down exactly what you watch โ total episodes, completed series, average rating, and a genre breakdown you can view as either a rotating 3D cube or an interactive pie chart.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SakuraLog at none against AniDrop's 3. SakuraLog also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). AniDrop's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 11 days). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
