Dropped $60 on a year of a streaming tracker app and it paid off way too fast
I kept losing track of what shows were on what service and wasting half my evening scrolling. So I bought this app called Reelgood that just lists everything available on Netflix, Hulu, HBO, all of them. It cost me $60 for the year but I saved that in like 2 months because I actually found stuff to watch instead of giving up. The real win was it showed me a hidden gem on a platform I almost canceled. Has anyone else used one of those tracker apps or did it just burn your cash too?

Used Reelgood for a bit myself. The free version did the job for me, but I get why the paid one works if you're constantly hunting for stuff. Saves way more time than it costs.

Did you ever try the free version with like just Netflix and Hulu? I swear half the time I'm just scrolling through the same 20 movies I've already seen, so even the basic Reelgood saved me from that loop. It's crazy how fast you can burn an hour just flipping through apps, and anything that cuts that down is worth it honestly. I feel you on the paid version being for the diehards who watch stuff from five different services. Like I get it, if you're paying for HBO Max, Apple TV, and all that, the $4.99 is nothing compared to the headache. It's basically a cheap way to stop yourself from rage-subscribing to another platform for one show.

Did you find the free version actually helped you find stuff you'd never watched, or did it just organize the same stuff you already knew about? I've heard mixed things from people who said it just highlighted shows they'd already skipped over. The time-saving part is real though, even just knowing exactly where something is without the app hopping.
