About LazyWatch
Where every show you track has a group chat attached. - You know that feeling when an episode ends and you need to talk about it right now, but nobody around you is caught up? That's what LazyWatch is for. The people who are just as into your show are already here. It's an app for fans, by fans. TRACK YOUR SHOWS AND MOVIES - Track TV shows and movies in one place, not two separate apps. - Continue Watching keeps everything in progress front and center, so there's no hunting for where you left off. - Swipe to mark an episode watched. No menus, no extra taps, that's the whole feature. - Un-watch a whole season in one tap if you swiped wrong, with undo built in. - Switch between a clean list or a poster grid, whichever way you like to browse. - Upcoming episodes and watchlist movies show up in your own time zone, not a generic release date. - Flip to the calendar for the whole month at a glance. - Turn on reminders so you get a nudge before something you follow drops. - Your library sits behind simple tags: up to date, completed, or the pile you quietly gave up on. Nothing buried three menus deep. FIND YOUR NEXT OBSESSION - Browse what's trending this week, what's most anticipated, and what's popular right now. - Built for finding your next show to get way too into, not for scrolling stuff you'll never watch. TALK ABOUT IT, NOT JUST LOG IT - Per-episode comments, right under what you just watched, for the memes, GIFs, and reactions while it's still happening. - Sort comments by hot, new, or top, and keep threads to friends or throw them open to everyone. - Per-show reviews for hyping and finding the niche stuff nobody's talking about yet. - Rate shows and episodes. Your take is part of the record, not just a star you forget you gave. - Content warnings on episodes, so other watchers know what's coming before they hit play. - Streaming availability shown right on the episode, without spoiling you on what happens. - Start your own community for your group, your fandom, or your show, and run it your way. FIND YOUR PEOPLE - Follow other members and see their activity roll in as it happens, from what they just started to the five-star rating that means drop everything. - Compare your numbers against a friend's, side by side: total time, episodes, shows. Settle who's really seen more. - Full actor pages, not just a name in search. See where else they've shown up and add their shows straight to your list. - Earn levels and badges as you watch, comment, and show up for the fandom. - Shareable profile, so people can find you the same way you find them. MAKE IT YOURS - Unlimited custom lists for however you organize your watching. - Favorites and private notes for the thoughts you don't want public. - Ranked top fives by genre, your taste laid out the way you want it. - Watch stats: total time, longest streak, busiest night, episodes this month, top genres, all in one shareable snapshot. SHARE IT - Turn a comment, an episode, a list, or your top five into a clean card for your story or a group chat. - Pick the look, the link rides along so whoever taps it lands right on the real thing in the app. BRING YOUR HISTORY WITH YOU - Import the history you already built somewhere else. - Upload an export file, link an account with a short code or CSV, pull a whole library with just a username, or drop in a viewing history. - Didn't export anything? Swipe through your shows, yes or no, and build your history from scratch in minutes. - Watch later and stopped-watching lists come across too, landing in the right place on their own. - Imports only add to your library, never overwrite it. Run them again anytime to top up. WHERE WE'RE AT - Three friends who missed a place like this, so we built it. We're not going to pretend it's finished. We'll keep improving it because we're never satisfied.
