Moving From TV Time: Your Complete Guide

Updated 2026-07-08 · Stub

With the upcoming closure of TV Time on July 15, 2026, it's time to consider moving from TV Time to a new platform that can continue to track your beloved TV shows. As loyal users, the decision to transition isn’t just about preserving our watch history; it’s about finding a dependable alternative that offers the same functionality and more. Stub is here to ensure that your viewing journey doesn’t miss a beat. By exporting your data and importing it into Stub, you can continue to track series, tick off episodes, and even discover new features on a platform that supports web, iOS, and Android.

Why TV Time Is Shutting Down

TV Time has been a trusted companion for TV enthusiasts worldwide, providing a seamless way to track shows and manage viewing schedules. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, the app will officially shut down on July 15, 2026. This closure means users will lose access to their entire watch history, including episode tracking, ratings, and followed shows.

The shutdown has prompted users to seek alternatives to preserve their viewing history and continue enjoying uninterrupted tracking. Stub emerges as a robust alternative, offering an easy transition process and enhanced features that cater to the needs of avid TV watchers, ensuring that your passion for TV shows remains uninterrupted.

Exporting Your TV Time Data

Before moving from TV Time to another platform, it’s essential to export your existing data. TV Time provides an option to export your data via gdpr.tvtime.com. This process is straightforward and ensures you have all your watch history safely stored.

To export your data, visit gdpr.tvtime.com and log in with your TV Time credentials. Once logged in, navigate to the data export section and request your data. This request will generate a file containing your complete watch history, including episodes watched, ratings, and followed shows, which can be downloaded and saved to your device.

Importing Data Into Stub

Once you've successfully exported your data from TV Time, the next step is to import it into Stub. Stub has been designed to make this transition as smooth as possible, ensuring that your viewing habits and preferences are seamlessly integrated.

To import your data into Stub, sign up or log in to your Stub account on the web, iOS, or Android app. Navigate to the import section and upload the file you obtained from TV Time. The platform will automatically process your data, restoring your watch history, ratings, and followed shows. This process ensures that you can pick up right where you left off without any hassle.

Features of Stub

Stub not only matches the capabilities of TV Time but also introduces additional features that enhance your TV tracking experience. With Stub, you can continue to track series, tick off episodes, rate shows, and manage your watchlist across all your devices, whether it's on the web, iOS, or Android.

In addition to these essential features, Stub offers a user-friendly interface and personalized recommendations that help you discover new shows based on your viewing history.
