## Review summary

Users praise Next Episode for reliable, up-to-date tracking of TV shows, with reminders, air-date scheduling, and a handy widget. It helps manage shows across streaming services and offers a simple interface with long-term reliability. The main drawback repeatedly mentioned is the free version's limit on tracked shows, which pushes users toward the paid version. Overall, it’s a strong tool for following episodes and staying organized, with room for enhancements like more customizable lists and tablet support.

### Pros

- Up-to-date tracking with reliable reminders/notifications about premieres, returns, and cancellations.
- Shows are organized by air date, making it easy to see what's coming next.
- Easy-to-use interface with long-term reliability across devices and years of use.
- Widget for at-a-glance next episode helps you see what’s coming up instantly.
- Centralized tracker across multiple streaming services to manage shows in one place.

### Cons
