What Episodely is
Episodely is a free web application to keep track of what you watch — TV shows, anime and movies — and to know when the next episode airs. It runs in the browser, is available in 15 languages, and imports the library you already built elsewhere.
At a glance
What it is
A web application. You use it from the browser, on computer and phone, with nothing to install.
Where it stands
In open beta since August 2026: anyone can sign up, no invite needed.
What it costs
Nothing. Basic use is free and stays free; paid plans are announced but not active yet.
Advertising
None, and no selling of data for commercial purposes.
Languages
15: Italian, English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese (Portugal), Portuguese (Brazil), Dutch, Polish, Russian, Arabic, Turkish, Japanese, Korean and Chinese.
Where your data lives
On servers in Europe, in Ireland.
Who makes it
An independent project by Viktor Teren, a TV Time user: it started from the need to get his own library back, not from a business plan. There is no company in the field behind it.
Where title data comes from
From TMDB (The Movie Database), complemented by other sources where TMDB's release date is not enough.
Code
Not open source: the repository is private.
What it does
Keep track
- One library for TV shows, anime and movies, with each title's state and a record of what you have watched, episode by episode.
- Statistics of what you have watched, split between shows, anime and movies, plus milestone badges: Binger, Completionist, Cinephile.
- A shareable monthly recap, «Your month in TV».
- Rewatches count as separate viewings: watching a film again does not overwrite the previous time.
Know when it airs
- A release calendar: episodes of the shows you follow, movies you are waiting for and Formula 1 sessions.
- A personal iCal feed you can subscribe to from Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook or Thunderbird.
- Dates are converted to the real release day instead of being taken as they come from the catalogue.
Talk about it without ruining it
- Comments and reactions on the single episode, not on the whole show.
- Spoiler protection: an episode's comments stay hidden until you mark it as watched. You do not have to remember to be careful — that is the default.
Decide what to watch
- A discovery section with filters by genre, streaming platform and period.
- Suggestions built from your library and from what you watched recently, which you can turn off in settings.
- Theatrical releases for your country.
Bring your history with you
- Import from TV Time, both from the GDPR archive and from the TV Time Liberator JSON file.
- Import from IMDb, from the ratings and lists CSV files.
- Title matching is validated instead of taking the catalogue's first result: it is the part imports get wrong most often.
One difference worth knowing
Calendar subscription — the iCal feed you add to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook or Thunderbird — is included on Episodely, at no cost. On Trakt the same feeds are reserved for the paid VIP plan; on Simkl they are published in the VIP section.
What it does not do
Is Episodely a streaming service?
It is not a streaming service and does not host or transmit any film or episode: it tells you what exists and when it comes out, it does not play it.
Is there an app to download?
There is no downloadable application yet: you use it from the browser, including on a phone. An App Store listing under this name existed in the past and was withdrawn: it is not this product.
Can you import from Trakt, Simkl or Letterboxd?
It does not import from Trakt, Simkl or Letterboxd yet: the supported sources today are TV Time and IMDb.
Does Episodely fetch your TV Time data for you?
It does not fetch your TV Time data for you: it starts from a file you already have.
