Questions
TV Time shutdown questions
Did TV Time shut down?
Yes. TV Time shut down on 15 July 2026. Its apps were removed from the App Store and Google Play, the tvtime.com website went offline, and TV Time said personal user data would be deleted after that date.
Can I still export my TV Time data?
TV Time's export was available through the app until the shutdown on 15 July 2026. If you requested an export before then, keep the file: you can import it into emberslate. If you did not, TV Time said personal data would be deleted, and emberslate has no way to recover it.
What carries over from TV Time into emberslate?
emberslate's import reads the titles you tracked, watch dates, ratings, favourites and statuses from your export. You review the matched titles before anything is applied, and the import never overwrites entries already in your emberslate library. The uploaded file is read in memory and not stored as a file on our servers.
Is emberslate free?
Yes. All emberslate features are currently free, including release reminders, quiet hours, themes, advanced stats and your full timeline history. There is no advertising in the app. Pricing may change as the app grows, and we will explain any change before it affects you.
Is emberslate available on iPhone?
Not at the moment. emberslate is an Android app, available for pre-registration on Google Play. No other platforms have been announced.
Can I import from Trakt too?
Yes. emberslate imports an existing library from Trakt the same way it does from TV Time, with the same review step before anything is applied.
Is emberslate connected to TV Time?
No. emberslate is an independent app made by emberfold labs. It is not affiliated with TV Time, Whip Media or Trakt; it can simply read the export files they provide.
