About OmniTrackr

Your personal media tracking companion

What Is OmniTrackr?

OmniTrackr is a free web application that helps you track, rate, and organize everything you watch, play, and read. Instead of juggling spreadsheets or forgetting what you've seen, you keep one central place for your movies, TV shows, anime, video games, music, and books.

Whether you want to remember what to watch next, compare your tastes with friends, or simply see your viewing and reading stats over time, OmniTrackr gives you the tools without locking you into a single platform or device.

The project exists because media habits rarely stay inside one app. A streaming service can remember one catalog, a storefront can remember purchases, and a notes app can hold loose recommendations, but none of those give a complete personal history. OmniTrackr is designed around the whole library: what you plan to try, what you finished, what you loved, what you dropped, and what you would recommend later.

What You Can Track

OmniTrackr supports six media categories, each with fields tailored to that type:

  • Movies — Title, director, year, rating, watched status, and reviews
  • TV Shows — Series title, seasons, episodes, rating, and progress
  • Anime — Title, seasons, episodes, rating, and watch status
  • Video Games — Title, release date, genres, rating, and played status
  • Music — Albums, artists, and your ratings
  • Books — Titles, authors, and reading progress

Posters and cover art are fetched automatically where possible (e.g. via OMDB, Jikan, RAWG, iTunes, Open Library), so your collection looks clear and recognizable at a glance.

Key Features

  • Ratings and reviews — Rate items and write detailed reviews; you can choose to make reviews public for others to read.
  • Statistics dashboard — See totals, averages, and breakdowns by category and over time.
  • Friends and privacy — Add friends and control what they can see (per category and per tab).
  • Export and import — Export your data as JSON and import it elsewhere so you stay in control.
  • Custom tabs — Create extra tabs for anything that doesn't fit the default categories.

Built Around User Control

OmniTrackr keeps private tracking separate from public discovery. Your account can hold unfinished notes, private ratings, friend-only visibility settings, and full-library exports. Public reviews are shared only when users intentionally mark individual entries public, and the public pages explain how that sharing works before someone signs up.

Data portability is part of the product philosophy. Export and import support exists so a media history is not trapped in one interface. That is especially important for long-term tracking, where a library can represent years of watching, reading, playing, and listening.

A Maintained Live App

OmniTrackr is not a static landing page or a placeholder project. Recent updates improved public guides, review quality controls, privacy and advertising disclosures, dependency security, CSP handling, sitemap coverage, robots.txt rules, and generated API documentation indexing. Those maintenance details matter because the app serves real users and stores user-created libraries.

The logged-in tracker remains the center of the product, but the public site now gives visitors useful information before registration: demos, comparisons, guide pages, review guidelines, export explanations, and a roadmap. That public content helps people decide whether OmniTrackr fits their habits without needing to create an account first.

Why Track Your Media?

Tracking what you watch, play, and read helps you remember what you loved, avoid repeats, and discover patterns in your tastes. It also makes it easier to get recommendations from friends and to share your own picks. OmniTrackr is built for people who take their media habits seriously but don't want to depend on a single streaming service or app store to remember for them.

Tracking also protects context. A rating alone may not explain why a movie worked, why a game lost momentum, why a show was worth finishing, or why a book should be recommended to one friend but not another. Notes and reviews keep those decisions visible when memory gets fuzzy.

Who OmniTrackr Is For

OmniTrackr is for anyone who wants a single, flexible place to track multiple types of media. It suits casual viewers who want a simple watchlist, serious collectors who care about stats and reviews, and groups of friends who like to compare lists and recommendations. Because it runs in the browser and supports export, it works across devices and keeps your data portable.

It is also useful for people who move between formats. Someone might watch an adaptation after reading a book, play a game because they liked a soundtrack, or start an anime because a friend compared it to a favorite show. Keeping those categories in one account makes those taste connections easier to notice.
