TV Time Is Shutting Down July 15 — Here's What to Do and What to Use Instead

If you're one of the 26 million people who've used TV Time to track your shows over the years, here's the deadline you need to know: the app shuts down for good on July 15, 2026. After that, the app disappears from app stores, the website goes offline, and all personal data — your watch history, ratings, everything — gets permanently deleted. There's no recovery option once that date passes.

Interestingly, this isn't happening because people stopped wanting a show tracker. TV Time was still pulling in tens of thousands of new downloads a month right up until the announcement. The shutdown came down to a corporate shift — TV Time's parent company was acquired by a private equity firm and pivoted the whole business toward AI products, leaving the consumer app behind. The audience was there. The company just moved on.

What to do before July 15:

Export your data now through TV Time's official export tool in the app — don't wait until the last few days, when the tool may be slow or overloaded.

Pick a replacement you actually want to stick with long-term.

If you're looking for a replacement: BingeTracker tracks up to 5 shows free (unlimited with Premium), and specifically alerts you when a show gets renewed, cancelled, or finally gets a return date — not just when a new episode drops. It also has a friends feature so you can see what people you know are watching.

And if you're worried about losing years of watch history — don't be. BingeTracker now has a built-in TV Time import tool. Upload your TV Time CSV export and it automatically matches your shows and adds them to your tracked list, so you don't have to start from zero.

Whatever you land on, don't wait until the 15th.
