WatchList

WatchList is a multi-user app that lets you track the movies and TV that you watch

You can track how many times you watched something, where you watched it and when you watched it. You can also rate movies or shows and get recommendations based on the movie or show you are looking at.

WatchList can be run as a web app. You can also run WatchList as a desktop application (Windows, Mac and Linux). Running WatchList as a desktop app is not currently working but will be fixed in a future release.

It is possible to search IMDB for a movie or TV show.

WatchList uses a SQLite3 database format by default. It can also be configured to connect to Microsoft SQL Server instead of SQLite3.

If you use Google Chrome, Watchlist can be run as a Progressive Web Application (PWA) where it runs on a desktop or mobile device and looks like a native application. See INSTALL.MD for details.
