About

StreamWorthy

Features
Read full description

The TV companion for people who watch a lot. StreamWorthy is where heavy viewers track what they're watching, rate what they've finished, and see what their friends actually care about. Think Goodreads, but for television โ€” episode-accurate, opinionated, and built to keep up with prestige-era release schedules. WHAT YOU GET - Episode-level tracking. Mark episodes, not just shows. Pick up mid-season on a different device and never guess where you left off. - Personal ratings and reactions. Score on a 1โ€“5 star scale, add quick reactions if you want, and see your own history โ€” not a stranger's average. - A real watchlist. Queue shows by where they stream, by whether a new season is coming, or by who recommended them. - Friends, done right. Follow publicly or privately. See a feed of what people you actually trust are watching, rating, and finishing. - Upcoming-season reminders. Get a heads-up when a show you tracked returns, so you stop finding out about S3 six months late. WHY IT EXISTS Most trackers are either ugly spreadsheets or feature-starved social apps with no data. StreamWorthy is for viewers who finish things, have opinions, and want the tracking to be as good as the watching. No algorithmic feed trying to sell you a show. Just your shelf, your friends, and what's worth your next three hours. BUILT FOR THE WAY YOU ACTUALLY WATCH - Binged a season this weekend? Mark it in two taps. - Dropped a show at episode four? Log it. No shame. - Waiting a year between seasons? We'll remember for you. PRIVACY - Your watch history is yours. - Follows can be public or private. - Reactions are opt-in. - We don't sell data and we don't need to. - Sign in with Apple, Google, or email.

Marothon tracks TV and movies at the episode level, remembers exactly where you left off, and lines up what to watch next. Built for people who marathon. YOUR ROT LIST Everything you're watching on one screen, grouped by what to do next. Opening the app answers the only question that matters: what do I put on right now? EPISODE-LEVEL TRACKING Not "seasons watched" โ€” the exact next episode, every time. Mark one off and the next slots in. Rewatches, half-finished seasons and shows you bailed on are all handled. NEVER MISS A DROP Get told when a new episode lands or a film you're waiting on hits streaming. Air times follow your timezone, not a server's. DISCOVER SOMETHING NEXT Browse by what's airing, what's new, what's leaving, and what people are actually watching โ€” with cast, crew and trailers on every title. ROT TOGETHER Follow friends and see what they're watching. Compare your libraries side by side to find the shows you've both been meaning to start โ€” and the ones you're hopelessly behind on. Accounts can be public or private, follow requests are yours to approve, and you can block or report anyone. Prefer to keep it to yourself? Turn the whole social side off in Settings.
