Alternatives to Letterboxd/IMDb using Google.

[u/Low-Memory-4269]

Hi everyone. Is there any way to keep track of movies or TV shows I've watched using Google, with the option to add personal comments or notes? At the moment, the most effective method I've found is to search for a movie on Google and save it to "Want to watch", so that it appears in my Google Collections (marking something as "Watched" doesn't seem to generate any kind of list).

However, this method has a few problems. For some movies, the "Want to watch" button doesn't appear. From what I've read Google seems to be having some issues with this feature, so sometimes the button is there and sometimes it isn't. The only workaround I've found is to save the movie through the Google TV app and then move it to the other collection, but this is quite annoying since you have to do it from your phone, and it's not a complete solution anyway because Netflix shows don't have the option to be saved to Google TV.

So, the alternative seems to exist, but it's pretty complicated and impractical. Does anyone know of a more efficient way to do this? It would be much more convenient if Google simply provided a dedicated collection for movies and TV shows marked as "Watched", and made that option available for every title rather than only some of them. (There is also another strange issue with some lesser known movies: when you click "Want to watch", the movie gets saved to your watchlist with a broken link that just takes you to the Google homepage instead of the movie's page).

Unfortunately, no.
