TV Tracker vs Trakt

TV Tracker vs Trakt

Trakt is the big, long-running tracker with a social feed, lists, and a large community. TV Tracker is smaller and narrower on purpose: log the episode you just finished, see what is next, and get warned before a show you are watching leaves streaming.

Where TV Tracker is different

It skips the social layer. No followers, no public activity feed. The home screen is your Continue Watching list, so the next episode is one tap away.

Where Trakt is stronger

Trakt has been around far longer, connects to a lot of media-center apps and scrobblers, and has a big community with public lists. If that is what you use it for, it is hard to beat.

Moving over

Export your history from Trakt, drop the CSV or JSON into TV Tracker's importer, and your shows come across with the episodes you already watched. Importing is free.

Quick answers

Structured for people, search engines, and AI answer engines.

Is TV Tracker a good Trakt alternative?

If you mainly use Trakt to remember where you are in each show, yes. TV Tracker is built for that one job: one-tap logging, a clear what-to-watch-next view, and alerts before shows leave streaming. If you rely on Trakt's scrobbling or social lists, Trakt still does more.

Can I import my Trakt history?

Yes. TV Tracker reads Trakt CSV and JSON exports and rebuilds your shows with the episodes you had already watched. Importing is free; the free plan tracks 10 active shows, so a larger library needs Premium to bring across in full.

How much cheaper is TV Tracker than Trakt VIP?

TV Tracker Premium is $2.99 a month or $29.99 a year. Trakt VIP is about $5.99 a month. The TV Tracker free plan has no ads.

Does TV Tracker have a social feed like Trakt?

No, on purpose. Your watch list stays private and the app stays focused on your own progress.
