StreamWorthy
Read full descriptionHide 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 1โ5 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.
