TV Show Goal Tracker for iPhone

Track TV shows completed on iPhone. Log each series you finish, build toward your yearly count, and handle binges and dry spells without a streak reset. Free.

You finished three shows in January during a slow stretch at home. Then work picked up in February and you didn't finish a single series — you were mid-way through two of them, watching one or two episodes at a time. March arrived and you finished both in one weekend binge.

A habit tracker built around "watch TV today" doesn't capture any of that. It sees check-ins and gaps. It doesn't know whether you finished anything. It can't show you that you're at 5 shows for the year and aiming for 24.

TV show goals work on completion, not daily watching. A show counts when you finish the last episode, whether that took four days or four weeks. The in-progress weeks are the work; the completion is the dot.

A completion tracker shows 5 of 24 shows. The two you're currently mid-series on don't count yet — but they will, when you're done.

Why tv shows finished is a milestone goal

TV show goals measure completed series. Whether you watch one episode per day or binge an entire season in a weekend, the show counts as complete when you finish it. The total is the metric, not the daily viewing habit.

The problem with streak trackers for tv shows finished

A week of no watching resets the check-in streak when you're halfway through a long series. The shows already finished are the actual count.

What the math looks like

One show per month reaches 12 in a year. A month with two completions balances a month with none.
