TrackShows 1.4: a home for the shows you have finished
David White
Until today, finishing a show on TrackShows meant it quietly vanished. The last episode ticked off, the show dropped out of On Next, and the only way to see it again was to search for it. For a tracker, that was a strange way to treat the thing you just spent forty hours with.
Completed
TrackShows 1.4 adds a Completed section at the bottom of On Next. Every show you have fully watched lives there, each marked with where it stands: Ended or Cancelled when the story is over, Returning series when you are simply caught up and more is expected. Tap a show to revisit it, or long press to unfollow it if you are done for good.
It is your watching history made visible, which is half the reason anyone keeps a tracker in the first place.
Tabs now remember your place
A smaller change you will feel every day: switching tabs no longer loses where you were. Open a show from What’s On, hop over to On Next, come back, and you are still on that show. Back still retraces your steps within the tab you are in. This is how tabbed apps are supposed to behave, and now TrackShows does.
iPhone polish for the web app
For everyone using the web app on an iPhone, the home indicator no longer sits on top of the tab bar, and the tab buttons are properly centred. Small things, but they were the first thing you saw on every visit.
Everything above is live on the web now, and the Android update is on its way through Google Play. As always, the full history is on the changelog.
