Features & Capabilities

Now on iPad and fully accessible. Track Watching, Binge, Watched & Gave Up, rate your favorites, and see when the next season drops.

Ever forget what you were watching? Or which streaming service it was on? It happens to all of us — juggling recommendations, hopping between apps, or trying to remember that one show you meant to start.

What Was I Watching is a warm, simple place to keep track. No accounts. No setup. No pressure. Just open it and jot down what you're watching or what you want to watch next.

Adding a show is just typing Type a title — even a few words — and the app finds it, filling in the poster, genres, and details for you. That's the whole flow.

Rather snap than type? Turn on photo capture in Settings to add a show from a picture of your TV, a poster, or a screenshot.

Track Every State Mark a show as Watching, Binge, Watched, or Gave Up — your list always reflects where you really are. Rate the ones you loved.

Your list becomes a clean, friendly collection you can browse anytime, organized by state, date, genre, or streaming service. Filter by movies or TV, by genre, or by who recommended it.

Track Your Seasons Watching a series? The app tracks which season you're on and tells you when the next one is due. When a new season drops, just tap to move forward.

Designed for Everyone Full VoiceOver and Voice Control support, Dynamic Type, high-contrast and reduced-motion modes, and clear labels throughout — the whole app is built to be used by everyone.

Made for iPad A real iPad layout, not a stretched-up phone — browse your list and show details side by side.

Want to share a show with a friend? Send them a link. They tap it, and the show opens right in the app, ready to add. It's fast — shared shows load instantly with full details.

Ask Siri "Hey Siri, what was I watching?" Get a natural spoken summary of your list, grouped by streaming service.

Sync Across Your Devices Add a show on your iPhone, see it on your iPad. iCloud keeps everything in sync automatically.

Widgets on iPhone Keep your recent shows right on your Home Screen. A quick glance is all it takes to remember what you were watching.

Apple Watch App Check your list from your wrist. Perfect for those "what was that show again" moments when your phone is not nearby.

Watch Widgets Your latest shows, right in the Smart Stack. Fast, simple, and always within reach.

Your Streaming Services Tell the app which services you use. It helps you keep track of where each show was streaming.

This app is amazing. Seriously do not know what I did without it. In this age of a million and a half apps who the heck even knows where all the shows I watch are! I certainly don’t but guess what? This app does. It will save you from getting frustrated and distracted every time. Love love love!

Had to come back and say this again (apparently the first time didn’t stick 😅), but this app deserves it. If you’ve ever wanted one place to keep track of what you’ve watched, what’s on your list, and what people keep recommending—you’ll get it immediately. It’s all there, and it just makes sense. No clutter. No unnecessary features. No learning curve. It’s one of those rare apps that feels thoughtfully made,simple in the best way, not stripped down. You open it and instantly know what to do, which is exactly how this kind of app should be. The ability to share recommendations adds just enough of a social layer without making it chaotic. Genuinely one of those “why hasn’t this always existed?” experiences. Still a 15/10.

I didn’t realize how many shows I’d abandoned mid‑season until What Was I Watching politely tapped me on the shoulder and said, “Hey… remember these?” Suddenly I’m reunited with half‑finished mysteries, comfort‑comedies I swore I’d get back to, and that one sci‑fi epic I absolutely did love but somehow misplaced in the chaos of modern streaming life. This app is basically my TV memory — but sharper, faster, and way less judgmental. The best part is how effortless it feels. I add a show, and boom: it’s tracked. I forget about it, and boom: it resurfaces right when I need it. It’s like having a personal concierge whose only job is to make sure I never lose track of the good stuff again. And sharing? Honestly, that’s where it gets fun. I’ve already sent friends my “Oh wow I was watching that” list, and it’s become a whole thing. Everyone has that one show they abandoned at episode 7 — this app turns that into a laugh instead of a mystery. If your streaming brain is fried, fragmented, or just full… this app is the gentle, joyful fix you didn’t know you needed.
