Know what you're watching, and what's on next. TV Tracker keeps the shows you follow in one place, tells you when the next episode airs, and counts down to it on your Home Screen β€” so you stop searching for "when is season 3 out" and just know. WHAT IT DOES β€’ Every show you track, with the next episode and a live countdown β€’ An upcoming feed and a calendar, so a week's viewing is one glance β€’ Mark episodes, seasons or whole shows watched β€” it remembers where you are β€’ A Home Screen widget showing what airs soonest β€’ A reminder on the day an episode lands, only for your shows BRING YOUR SHOWS WITH YOU Already track your shows somewhere else? Turn on Trakt sync and your watchlist and history come across, and stay in step both ways. Or import a file β€” an IMDb export brings your list and ratings, a TV Time export brings your watch history too. No account with any of them is required. TV Tracker works on its own. WATCH TOGETHER Share a household with one other person and see what you're both up to: who's ahead, who's behind, and the next episode neither of you has seen. An invite code is all it takes, and either of you can end it at any time. HONEST ABOUT YOUR DATA No ads. No selling your data. No posts anywhere, ever. Your watch history is yours, it syncs across your devices, and you can delete your account and everything in it from inside the app in two taps. FREE, OR EVERY SHOW TV Tracker is free for five shows you choose β€” Upcoming, Calendar, reminders and the widget follow them, and every show keeps its page, episodes and your history. You can change your five once a week. To track every show, subscribe for $1.99/month or $14.99/year. Both plans start with a 14-day free trial. Cancel any time in Settings.
