This guide will walk you through the process, ensuring you don’t miss a single episode or lose any of your ratings and reviews.
Exporting Your TV Time Data
Before you can import your TV Time history into Stub, you need to export your data from TV Time. To do this, navigate to gdpr.tvtime.com. This is TV Time's dedicated platform for data export requests, in compliance with GDPR regulations.
Once you’re on the site, log in using your TV Time credentials. After logging in, find the option to request your data export. The system will generate a downloadable file containing your entire TV Time watch history, including episodes watched, ratings, and shows followed. This process might take a little time, so it’s advisable to initiate the request well in advance of the shutdown date.
Importing Your Data into Stub
After receiving your exported TV Time data, the next step is to import it into Stub. First, make sure you have created a Stub account. You can do this on the Stub website or through the iOS or Android app. Once your account is ready, log in and look for the ‘Import Data’ option in your profile settings.
Select the file you received from TV Time and initiate the import. Stub’s user-friendly interface will guide you through the process, ensuring that every show, episode, and rating is accurately transferred. In just a few minutes, your complete TV Time history will be restored, and you can continue tracking your shows just as you did before.
