A personal archive, not a subscription

This is the last time you lose it.

Trackers shut down. Accounts get deleted. Companies get acquired and quietly turned off. Every time, years of ratings, notes, and watch history disappear with them. Not here: your history lives on your device first, exports on demand, and needs no account to exist.

Why this exists

Your history shouldn't need a company's permission to keep existing.

Every media tracker you've loved runs on the same assumption: your watch history lives on their servers, behind their account system, for as long as their business decides to keep the lights on. When that business ends, so does your history, no matter how many years you put into it.

The application may disappear. Your history must not.

open-personal-tracking is local-first: no account required for the core app, full export in a documented format, always. Movies, TV, anime, books, manga, games, music, whatever you track, it's yours, on your device, before it's anyone else's.

A project that's actually alive

You won't be filing a PR into the void.

Every week, the community reviews open issues together on Discord, 13:00-14:00 (Italy time). Pull requests get read and get a real answer, good or bad, not silence. Decisions get written down in the open instead of decided in a private channel you weren't in.

There's far more to build here than any one person can carry alone: providers, importers, storage, accessibility, design, translations, testing, docs. First contribution or hundredth, both matter, and there's room for whatever you want to bring to it.

Team & contributors

Open source, open roster.

This project is built in the open, one contribution at a time, code, design, docs, testing, translations, whatever you bring. The roster below is still filling up, and there's a spot open for you.

Sponsorship

Fund the archive, not the ads

Sponsorship keeps this project ad-free and keeps maintainer time going toward your pull requests instead of a sales funnel. Opening soon.
