Import your watch history to Series Reminder

Welcome to Series Reminder

If you are looking for a new home for your TV tracking, my goal is to make it as easy as possible to migrate your favorite shows and watched history from other platforms to Series Reminder. Whether you are moving on from a service that has shut down, or simply streamlining your setup, you do not have to start tracking from scratch.

Data imports are available to all users. While free tier accounts have a standard tracking limit of 25 favorite series, our migration tools will import your full library and history for free without truncating your data. You only need to upgrade to a Supporter subscription ($20/year) if you wish to manually track new shows beyond the 25-show cap down the road.

What is Processed During an Import?

Each TV tracking site exports data in its own format, but Series Reminder focuses on importing the two most critical pieces of your TV history:

• Favorite Series: Any valid shows found in your import file will be automatically added to your favorites. By default, newly imported shows will have "Season Premiere" notifications enabled. If you already have custom reminder settings for a show, they will not be changed.
• Watched History: Any episode marked as watched in your import file will be synchronized in Series Reminder. This process is strictly additive; the importer will never unmark or overwrite any episodes you have already tracked.

Supported Import Pathways

You can manage all active migration tools directly on the Import Hub. Here is a breakdown of the current import options:

1. TV Time GDPR Archives

If you saved your official GDPR data export ZIP archive before TV Time shut down, you can restore your complete watch history and watchlist. I built a fully automated importer that parses your raw ZIP archive directly. Check out the dedicated TV Time Import Guide for step-by-step instructions.

2. Episode Calendar

If you are migrating from Episode Calendar, the process is fully automated. You can upload your Episode Calendar data export directly to the Episode Calendar Importer to instantly transfer your library.

3. Plex Media Server Integrations

For users running their own media servers, there are two distinct ways to import and track data:

• Bulk Library Import: Use Webtools-NG to export your entire Plex TV Show library to a CSV and upload it here to build your favorites list in seconds. (Read Webtools Guide)
• Real-Time Tracking: Set up Plex Scrobbling using Plex Pass webhooks to automatically mark episodes as watched in real time as you stream. (Read Plex Scrobbling Guide)

Backup Your Existing Data First!

If you already have existing favorites and watched history on Series Reminder, it is always a smart engineering practice to back up your data before running any import. While the imports are designed to be additive and safe, having a backup copy is a great safety net.

You can download a CSV or JSON copy of your current watch history using the Data Backup tool under your account's Tools menu. For more details on managing backups, check out the Data Backup Guide.

Need Support for Another Platform?

I am always looking to expand import capabilities. If there is another tracking website or app you want to migrate from, please contact me directly and let me know! If you can provide a sample data export file from that service, I will do my best to build a custom parser for it.
