Ratings and Reviews
Surprising Find
Love the new features with favorites tags and callback links to movies and shows in the Reminders! Great job! Thank you for listening and all your efforts! Most appreciated. 🙏
Previous review:
Tried dozens of movie and show tracker apps to settle on Switch On. For these reasons:
Clean UI
No ads
Strong privacy
Fast
Comprehensive info about each movie or show.
Tracks episodes and movies watched.
Has some unique and rare aspects like …
You can follow actors
Reminder integration for show and movie air and release dates.
Other things I like …
You can add a note to a show or movie and an actor too.
Responsive developers. Wrote back to me in less than an hour after asking for help.
I like the databases they chose to congregate the content with — IMDB and JustWatch. Trak TV is too restricting with the new watchlist limits.
No subscription. Works on a generosity basis. Tips to support the work. Good job all around on the developers.
