I couldn't find a movie and TV tracker that did everything I actually needed, so I built one
Started this because I kept missing release dates, forgetting what I'd watched, and had no idea which streaming platform had what I wanted. Spent months building CuedUp properly.
Quick note before the list — it's completely free, no ads, no subscription. And it doesn't stream anything. It's purely a discovery and tracking tool — beautiful metadata, posters, ratings, cast, trailers, and links to where you can actually watch. Think of it as the layer between "what do I watch tonight" and pressing play.
Here's everything it does:
Discovery
Browse popular movies and TV shows, or switch to a Coming Soon tab with a live countdown for unreleased titles. Filter by genre, language, and streaming platform (Netflix, Prime, Apple TV+, JioHotstar, SonyLIV, Crunchyroll, MUBI and more). Search with fuzzy matching so typos don't break results. Dedicated anime section. Browse by franchise (MCU, etc.)
Detail pages
Every movie and show has a full page — trailer, poster, cast and crew carousels, where to watch with direct platform links, runtime, certification, release dates, production companies, recommendations, and a full video gallery. TV shows show seasons and episodes with ratings.
Saving and organising
Save anything to custom playlists. Favourite movies and shows with a heart button — shows up on cards and detail pages. Share any playlist with a link so someone else can see exactly what's in it.
Reminders
Set a reminder on any unreleased movie or show. Stored to your account so they sync across devices. A dedicated Reminders page shows everything you're waiting for, sorted by release date.
Your profile
Favourites page and Reminders page accessible from a profile dropdown. Everything synced to your account.
Sharing
Share button on every detail page — native share sheet on mobile, copies link on desktop.
Performance
PWA with offline support, blur placeholder images while posters load, route-based code splitting, Service Worker caching so repeat visits feel instant.
100% free. No streaming. Just really good metadata.
