See the Roadmap →A note from the founder
Refract started out of frustration.
TV Time — the app many of us used to track shows for years — slowly became abandoned. Updates stopped. Bugs piled up. The community was left with a product that felt stuck in time.
So I did what any obsessive media nerd would do: I spent months studying over 50 tracking apps. What worked, what didn't, what users loved, what they complained about in reviews. I took the best of all of it and built Refract.
One app for everything you watch. Free, forever. No ads. A roadmap shaped by you.
