Hey r/betatests, posted here a couple weeks ago looking for testers for CouchTime, a TV schedule app that tells you what to watch tonight across all your streaming services.
Got some great feedback and I have been heads down building since. 71 issues closed since that post. Here is what actually changed:
The big stuff:
- Added calendar subscription via .ics so your viewing schedule shows up in your actual calendar
- Guest preview before signup so you can try it without creating an account
- Mark watched flow is a lot smoother now, was clunky before
- Recommendations are better and streaming aware, so it only suggests things on services you actually have
- Daily and weekly reminders via push notifications
- Faster initial load and proper PWA support so it installs like an app on your phone
If you tried it before and bounced, it is genuinely different now. Faster, clearer, and the core loop of "open app, see what is on tonight, watch it, mark done" actually feels smooth.
Still free, no credit card, feedback still directly shapes what I build next.
Most useful feedback right now:
- What would need to change for you to open it again tomorrow night?
- Did the lineup feel useful after adding a few shows, or did it still feel like work?
- Was there a moment where you thought "okay I get it" or did it never click?
