    How to track anime, books, films, TV and games in one app

    Juggling Letterboxd, Goodreads, MyAnimeList, TV Time and a Google Keep note for your games is the fastest way to lose track. This guide explains how to centralise your entire media backlog in one app — Tracksaga — without losing what you've built elsewhere.

    1. Why unify your media tracking

    Silos are expensive: multiple logins, fragmented stats, no total view of time spent per medium. A unified app gives you one library, franchises grouped across films/TV/books (Marvel, LOTR, One Piece), and recommendations that draw on your entire history.

    2. Importing your existing data

    Tracksaga accepts CSV exports from Letterboxd, IMDb, Trakt, TV Time, Goodreads, MyAnimeList, AniList and SensCritique. Go to Settings > Import/Export, drop your file, and Tracksaga matches each title to a catalogue entry automatically.

    3. Organising films and TV shows

    Every title has a status (Watchlist, Watching, Completed, Dropped). TV shows track season by season with per-season ratings — one weak season no longer drags down a masterpiece's overall score.

    4. Organising anime and manga

    The anime catalogue is powered by Jikan (MyAnimeList data). Track episodes and seasons, separate airing from completed, and group entire universes (Fate, Monogatari…) with the saga system.

    5. Organising your reading

    Books are enriched via Google Books. Add current reads, your TBR pile, rate each volume of a series individually (Harry Potter, Discworld…) and hit your annual reading goal.

    6. Organising video games

    Games come from the IGDB catalogue. Statuses: Backlog, Playing, Completed, Platinum, Dropped. Perfect for tackling backlog fatigue and seeing what you actually own vs what's been sitting for years.

    7. Custom lists and sagas

    Build themed lists ("Noir films to watch", "Sci-fi sagas to finish", "Gifts"). Works tied by a saga are grouped automatically and shown in chronological order.

    8. Stats and overview

    Your dashboard shows total time spent per medium, top genres, annual progress and a visual timeline of your cultural year.

    Tracking UK-available content

    Tracksaga covers international catalogues but is fully usable to track shows on UK platforms (BBC iPlayer, Channel 4, ITVX, Now TV) alongside Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+. Each entry displays the year and country of origin so BBC and Channel 4 productions are easy to spot.

    • Add BBC iPlayer and Channel 4 shows manually from the catalogue
    • Create a dedicated "BBC watchlist" using custom lists
    • Rate each season individually — ideal for short British series (6-episode runs)
    • Full British English interface available

    Private by default — why it matters

    Your library, ratings and personal notes stay private unless you explicitly share them. Unlike Letterboxd, Goodreads or MAL, you don't need a public profile to use the app. Ideal for a personal journal without the social pressure.

    Frequently asked questions

    Can I really track everything in one app?

    Yes: films, TV shows, anime, books, manga, video games. Each type has its own workflow (episodes for shows/anime, volumes for books, game-specific statuses).

    How long does migrating from other apps take?

    About 5-10 minutes per CSV. Export from the source app, drop into Tracksaga, automatic matching.

    Can I keep my other accounts alongside?

    Of course. Nothing stops you from keeping Letterboxd or Goodreads for public reviews and using Tracksaga as a private personal journal.

    Does Tracksaga work in the UK?

    Yes. The app works worldwide, offers a British English interface, and tracks BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Now TV content alongside global platforms.
