It’s hard to track anything with this app. There is no continue watching feed to see what’s next on your list. You can’t even mark tv show episodes as seen individually so how can you tell where in the series you are? This seems like a new app that needs a lot of work and most of the cool features are behind a paywall. Stick to TVTime it’s free and does tracking the right way.

I love being able to track the movies and shows I watch, and discover new ones. It’s great to be able to see top shows and movies by streaming service and only show the services I have. Plus I enjoy being to see if a show or movie is based in a book. This is a great app.
