- Trakt (Best for Data and Automation) If you want the most robust database on the internet, Trakt is the undisputed king. It has been around for years and powers many third-party tracking apps.
Why it replaces TV Time: Trakt’s biggest advantage is "scrobbling"—it can connect directly to media centers (like Plex or Kodi) and automatically mark an episode as watched the second the credits roll.
The Catch: The website interface is a bit busy as compared to TV Time’s clean mobile app, and you have to pay for Trakt VIP to get some of the premium features.
Data Import: Trakt currently offers a reliable tool to import your TV Time GDPR export file.
- Serializd (Best for Reviews and Community) If you loved TV Time for the community reviews and ratings, Serializd is your best bet. Often described as "Letterboxd for TV," it puts a heavy focus on user-generated season reviews and custom lists.
Why it replaces TV Time: It has a gorgeous, modern interface and makes it incredibly easy to share your opinions on a specific episode or an entire series.
The Catch: It relies on the TMDB database, which occasionally takes a day or two to update for very obscure or brand-new international shows.
- Bingers (The Official Successor) Before TV Time closed its doors, the original founder announced they were working on a spiritual successor called Bingers.
Why it replaces TV Time: It is being built specifically to capture the magic of the original app, promising a return to the community-first vibe that users loved.
The Catch: It isn't fully launched yet. While it is expected to drop in late July 2026, you will have to join a waitlist or use a temporary tracker in the meantime.
- Simkl (Best for Anime and Movie Tracking) Simkl is a massive all-in-one tracker. If you used TV Time for shows but used a different app for anime or movies, Simkl lets you consolidate everything into one dashboard.
Why it replaces TV Time: It automatically tracks what you watch through browser extensions and offers deep analytics on your viewing habits.
The Catch: The sheer amount of features can be overwhelming for someone who just wants a simple "tap to check in" button.
- Such A Good Show (The Ultimate All-in-One Alternative) Full disclosure: This is our platform!
We noticed a frustrating flaw in the current landscape: these apps are great for logging data, but they feel like sterile spreadsheets. Big entertainment sites have great articles, but they don't know what you've watched.
We built Such A Good Show to bridge that gap completely. Our secret sauce is an all-in-one dashboard designed for how people actually watch TV today. Instead of bouncing between three different apps, you get a single homepage that instantly tells you:
What you are watching and the exact episode you are on.
Where it streams right now, so you never waste time hunting down a platform.
What happened in the last episode you watched via quick, bite-sized recaps to refresh your memory before you hit play.
As you track and rate your favorite series, the platform learns your taste and serves up highly curated, hand-picked content and recommendations tailored to your viewing habits. If you want a tracker that actually enhances the experience of watching television—rather than just checking a box—give us a look. We are a fresh, indie platform, and we’d love to have you help us build the community.
Lastly, I wanted something private, just for me. That's what this is. It's not a forum, it's kind of a community, but it really is for the user who simply wants a one-stop-shop for tracking their shows, one-click to get to those shows on the various services like Apple, Netflix, Amazon and Hulu and finally get awesome recaps, curated recommendations and at times get that nostalgic TV feeling.
