Watchtower
TV & Movie Tracker
Keep every show and movie you're watching in one place — then see what your friends are watching, react to it, and talk about it. Watchtower tells you what airs tonight, what's coming back, and where to stream it.
Never lose track of where you left off
Your whole library in one list — filtered down to exactly what you want to see, next to a calendar that tells you when the next episode lands.
Tonight's shows, up front
Open the app and the first thing you see is what airs today — episode number, network, and streaming service included.
Filter down to what you're after
Narrow to TV or movies, then to what you're watching, wish-listing, holding, or have finished — then again by whether a show is currently airing, between seasons, or wrapped up for good.
Every row says where you are
The episode you're up to, the day of the week it airs, and the service it's on — without opening anything.
Status at a glance
Tags call out the shows that are between seasons, have finished a season, or have ended for good, so you know what's actually worth waiting on.
Countdowns and comebacks
"Coming Soon" counts down the next episode of everything you follow. "Coming Back" tells you when a show you've been waiting on returns.
The week ahead
Switch the calendar between a running upcoming list and a weekly schedule laid out day by day.
Rate without leaving the list
Star a title straight from its row — no extra screens. Those ratings help sharpen what Discover suggests next.
Find the next one — and where to watch it
Suggestions built from the library you already have, and never a guess about which service it's on.
Picks that explain themselves
Every suggestion in Discover says why it's there — "because you watched" the specific shows it drew from — alongside the rating, genres, and synopsis.
Where to watch, on every screen
Streaming availability rides along with the show wherever it appears: in your library, in tonight's list, and on every calendar entry.
Tuned to the services you pay for
Tell Watchtower which services you subscribe to and it highlights the titles you can actually stream right now.
A heads-up when it matters
Three reminders, each one optional, each one off or on whenever you like.
Morning-of reminder
A nudge on the day something you follow airs.
Returning soon
Seven days before a show you follow comes back.
Season premiere — two weeks out
An extra heads-up before a new season starts, so there's time to catch up.
Your watching, by the numbers
Your profile keeps a running count of everything tracked — total titles, shows versus movies, and how many sit in each status.

Watchtower is free on iPhone, iPad, and Android.
Watching is better with other people
Most trackers stop at a checklist. Watchtower adds the part that actually makes watching fun — knowing what your friends are into, and having somewhere to say so.
Add the people you actually watch with
Invite friends straight from the app. Once they're in, their activity shows up in your feed and yours shows up in theirs.
A feed of what everyone's watching
See when a friend rates something, finishes a show, or adds a title to their library — with the poster, the rating, and how long ago it happened.
React and comment
Hit a reaction on anything in the feed, or leave a comment and talk it out. It's the group chat about the show, attached to the show.
You decide what's visible
Sharing is per show. Anything you'd rather keep to yourself stays off the feed entirely — your friends see what you want them to see, and nothing else.
