Any app better than Reelgood for tracking what you've watched and want to watch? - eviltoast

Things I like about Reelgood: track movies I want to see and what is on the services I subscribe to. Marking things I’ve seen and like or dislike. The app is fast and has no horrible ads. Available on iPhone, iPad and has an AppleTV App (tho not very useful).

Things that could improve:

Recommendations are terrible. No ability to mark movies “not interested”

Alerts when something you want to see is added to a service you subscribe to

UI could be a better

Ratings by rotten tomatoes (certified fresh?) would be nice…maybe more tracking/labeling of awards like Sundance, Oscar’s, golden globes

Better ability to sort by rating/popularity

Community ratings, discussion, etc

Maybe follow other users that share your tastes?

Thanks for any tips you can offer.

    I don’t see Simkl mentioned anywhere yet - that’s what I use, and I’ve been very happy with it so far. It’s pretty similar to Trakt, but a bit more user-friendly (imo) and with more active development. Also has a Jellyfin plugin. It has a few issues and missing features (particularly the lack of custom lists), but pretty much every change I want is coming soon in a big overhaul. Really the worst thing about it is the awkward name and choice of pictures for the landing page lol.

      I also use simkl, and it’s great, has plugins for many different software, including Plex, and some software on your windows computer too when. You watch files most of the way through. I also have a huge list to try to watch for my whole life (over 15000 movies). It’s a great platform.
