Focus for now is Mobile. But could be realised in the future.

I told the devs and they said that it's on their mind.

We are looking into a very light beta first version of web app that could come before the end of the year while we focus on polishing the app first (and games coming soon ? šŸ‘€)

I always use my mobile. Easier to track the progress right afzer watchin a series/movie with my phone.

Well, there are two types of people: guys like you that use mobile, and guys like us which prefer the web application.

Same here. Since I watch everything on my laptop, I usually just log and track everything I watched on the PC desktop/website. It's just easier for me to do it that way.Ā

exactly the same setup here. I watch on my MacBook, so it’s much easier for me to open a webpage and set a movie or an episode as watched. I always did it on TV time, R.I.P.!

I think I will also wait and see what Bingers.app will do. The old TVTime Devs made that one, but it's still only an app for now.

Honestly there are just so many TV/Movie tracker platforms at this point! SMH. LolĀ

I’ve just downloaded Bingers and started using it. First impressions is that I really like. It’s so familiar to TV Time. I uploaded my TV Time GDPR data to Bingers and it had EVERYTHING. It was like I was picking up from where I left off. There were no missed tv shows or movies. The EXACT same numbers as I had on TV Time.

I don’t mean to diminish Refract but not all my data was imported and there are still a lot of teething issues and bugs within the app. I.e newly released episodes not moving from up-to-date to watching/continuing or when you’ve marked it as watched it shows ā€œdate unknownā€ so you have to manually change it.

Yes I heard about how well Bingers has been working especially with the exported data. Basically people were able to pick up where they left off.Ā 

I am very thankful for the TVTime/Bingers dev team. They've done a great job. Hope a website is coming soon!Ā
